Here are some timely suggestions for the thrifty for this season:— Pick your cotton as fast as it opens. Don’t leave it in the field at the mercy of the weather. Market it as fast as possible until the debts are all paid. Save all the feed stuff possible. Sow rape and rye for the chickens. Make your plans to sow oats and vetch. PAY YOUR DEBTS if you hm any, as fast as you sell your cotton. SAVE ALL YOU CAN. BANK ALL YOUR MONEY. Don’t carry it around in your pocket or keef) it at home. *' t • • Mt f ) » ' ti4\* »i.
