We believe that every farmer in the South should have a bank account, however small, and there will never be a better time than FALL in it elements of strength and power that will make it great. One of the finest things you can hope for for your boy is that he be thrifty and strong in self-denial, and you yourself can do few better things than set him an example. , 4.

How will it help you to put your money in the bank? Here are some of the ways: 1. A bank is the safpjtt tlac& to keet money, and it is actually dangerous to keep, any considerable sum of . money about the home. uomsr so is simntv on intr?fit?rkrt"trk iirrlnrs and murderers.

Let us in the summer of life and strength so work and save that when the winds of life's winter blow upon us, we can face them without fear. ; ! 5. It promotes buying on a cash basis, i So long as we are idragged down by w the' credit system millstone that curses the cotton country, we must not expect any great progress, individual o r collective . There is just one way to get away from this evil, and that is to put your business pn a cash basis and keep it there. 4 This is going to mean self denial and possibly some actual hard ships, but it is better for a year to do without many actual necessities than to go on forever paying tribute to a system that grinds men and women and children down into , the dust of hopeless poverty. Put' some money in the bank, and when you buy, buy for cash, at cash prices. Then, if you haven't enough money to buy all you need, do without it, we say, rather than go into bondage again. Get in touch with the banker in your town, and do it now; very often he's a mighty good man to know. DON'T FAIL TO READ- ' The Garden in November . ....... 4 Experiments With Wheat . . . .
