GRADE FARM PRODUCTS No farmer would expect to sell at a good price a barrell filled with on 1C • ' H.-.7S c ■ ;• toes all mixed together. It is almost as foolish to expect to get the best market price for a barrel of a single product in which all sorts are dump ed without regard to size, color or cleanliness. ■ '"ting t'O P’.'V'O, 1 IT .o>?d -’a their produce, many farmers must sell it for much less than might be obtained for the same stuff by ex ercising a little caT-e in prenarinA’ it for the market. In discussing this* important phase of marketing ah ex pert says: “Quality and uniformity in grains, fruit, cotton, potatoes, dairy and poul tiy products com ((mand a pram mm fiam the* buyer. A crate of large, < ean e f s -oif uniform) color twill Irmg more in a central imiarket than one in. which small, dirty, many color ed eggs are included. Dirty potatoes of mixed sizes sell poorly alongside 0 me.in ones that have been grad ed.” The^ difference in price between gradeu and ungraded products often mean the difference between profit and loss in farming operations. IMPROVES HIS LAND BY LIME-LEGUMES From yields of 6 to 15 bushels of wheat an acre, 10 to 15 oushels of corn and about one-half bail of cotton to 30 and! 40 bushels of wheat, 40 bushels of corn anid1 500 to 700 pounds of lint cotton, is the interesting record of M. L. Adder holdt of route 4, Lex ington in Davidson County. This steady climb in soil fertility and resulting acre yields has been ■made during (the last 13 years by the intelligent use of soil building prac '^es including the generous use of limestone ana iegu.in.es, say Agri cultural extension workers of State College. When Mr. Addeiholdt bought his present farm 13 years ago, the neighbors, as they db everywhere, prophesied tnat he would starve or the poor, sandy soil. He did have low crop yields lor the first time years but he began the practice of using ground limestone and acid phos phate and turning unaer crops of red clover and vetch until he has one of the most fertile farms in David son County. this past season, he averaged 30 bushels of wheat an acre on 16 acres, all of which was cotton or corn stalk land. On thiee acres, where a corn crop was grown last sjamimjer, he ave.aged 40 bushels of wheat. This thiee acres was planted to sweet clover turned under prior to the corn crop. n-i-.

It’s easy, ii you mind these simple rules of a famous old doctor: 1. Drink a big tumblerful of watei before breakfast, and several times a day. 2. Get plenty of outdoor exercise with out unduly fatiguing yourself. 3. Try for a bowel movement at exactly the same hour every day. Everyone’s bowels need help at times, but the thing to use is Dr. Caldwells* Syrup Pepsin. You’ll get a thorough cleaning-out, and it jvon’t leave yovjr insides weak and watery. This famiw doctor’s prescription is just fresh laxa tive herbs, pure pepsin, and other helpful ingredients that couldn’t hurt a child. But how it wakes up those lazy bowels* How good you feel with your systems rid of all that poisonous waste matter. Dr. W. B. Caldwell’s; SVRUP PEPSIN A Doctor's Family. Luxtut'x'e quirements by adding a small amount in his fertilizer mix for a period of five years wihen he makes another 'application of one ton of the lime s'’ one an acre. In this way, he grows clover and other legumes in a success ful way. By turning under that part of the clover not needed for hay, he builds up the nitrogen and organic matter content of hiis soil. Then with a little judicious fertilizing to balance the plant food1 supply, he is able to make profitable crop yields. MRS. WALLACE ILL i ._ Mrs. Lena Wallace of Cullowhee is in the C- J.
