Must Come \
Have you ever looked
the truth squarely in the
face and realized that
every day brings you
nearer the time when your
earning capacity decreas-
es. and finally ceases?
Have you ever thought of
what will become of you
and your loved ones when
you "lose out" in business?
If you have given the
matter much thought, you
certainly have determined
to do the right thing by
yourself and them by
starting a Savings Account
with this strong, up to-
date bank.

the In t of livestock men have
learned how to ici. iillficaliy feed tlielr
animnls. And the.-e cotton farmers
nre learning that Chilean nitrate of
soda, 1' It to 200 I. i'.ihIs per acre, ap
plied as a side-drossing by or before
the time the first blooms appear, is
the finest of all foods for lhe growing
cotton crop. Such a side-application
p . | keeps the cotton green and fruiting
"el vigorously, long after cotton not so
side-dressed lias turned yellow and is
throwing off all the little bolls set.
"Feed your cotton with Chilean ni
trate of soda, and it will fatten your
pocket-book," Is becoming proverbial
with the best farmers In the Cotton
