C., of fer for sale to the highest bidder for cash, the following described land and premises, lying and being in Mc Dowell (now Buncombe) County, North Carolina, and described as fol lows: ^Being two certain tracts of land on the Major Mountain known as the J.

All work of layering should be done in the spring after growth starts, and the secret of success lies in keeping the soil moist over the covered part. If it dries out, the buried tip will not root. Plants which are layered this sprlTig will be ready to transplant next fall or jn the spring of 1930. Be sure the tip is thoroughly rooted before severing it from the parent plant. It will be well to wait until fall to sever new plants which grow from layers made the spring before. The other tyi>e is known as mound layering, and consists merely of throwing, or mounding up, soil about the base of a growing plant. In this case, too, It is necessary to keep the mounded-up soil from drying out. This type is most successful on gooseber ries, currants, lilacs, Japanese barber ry and privet. The mounding Is done in spring or early summer, and by fall those branches which were covered with soil will have rooted. In the fall or next spring the soil can be removed care fully and the plant dug and divided Into as many new plants as there are branches or stems which bear roots. On black raspberry bushes some of the tips have touched the ground and taken root without having been bur ied. This is a natural example of tip layering. Run out now and see if you cannot find some natural tip lay ers among your black raspberry bushes.

Purchasers of alfalfa seed this sea son are advised by the bureau of agri cultural economics. United States De partment of Agriculture, to be espe cially cautious to buy only seed which is adapted to their farms. The alfalfa seed crop was relatively small last year, and the correspondingly high prices afford greater opportunity than usual for shippers and dealers to offer unadapted alfalfa seed for sale in lo calities where only certain varieties j may be grown successfully. | Bureau’s Recommendation. j The bureau's recommendation ap-! plies especially to purchases of com- j mon alfalfa seed or that not covered ■ by state certification as to variety. In | case of doubt as to the best adapted seed to purchase, says the bureau, farmers should consult their county agent or write their state experiment station. Following this, it is urged that United States Verifled-Origin be specified in making purchases, with the further requirement that a “United States Verified-Origin Seed Certificate” tag be attached to each bag. Fort^feix seed dealers in nineteen states have been authorized by the De partment of Agriculture to issue veri fied origin seed certificates. These SMMBffSmi People for miles have literally swamped us since we opened this Sacrifice Sale, and bought liberally their wants for Spring and Summer. The most striking feature of this Sacrifice Sale is the preiminent low prices that are being made on all classes of merchandise.

When its residents lose their civic pride, the town becomes shabby and dull. Then the citizens begin speaking enviously of some near-by (!ty. The remedy is for YOU to take an interest in our town and do things for it. This will benefit both you and our town, and the more you do, the more you will want to do, and you will drop out of the “anvil chorus,” too.
