(Special.) "Iigh prices for cottonr such as we had a year ago cannot reasonably be expect' 1 ed for a long time to come? European 1 countries that normally use half our j crop are so thoroughly -disorganized t and paralysed in a business way that 1 they will not be able to take the usual quantities and pay high prices for many years to come," said H.

The quickest, safest and most effective way to reduce cot ton makings cost is to produce on one's own acres every pound of food, grain and forage needed for family, -tenants and laborers and lite stock. "The situation requires chickens, hogs, milk cows and acres of corn, oats, wheatvTorage and miscellane ous crops fromhich to feed them. Last, but not least, in Importance, is the home vegetable1! garden which is the quickest, and cheapest source of food in the world. "Most folks here in tSouth don't take the home garden seriously uud thereby make a great mistake. There are too many of the 'lick and a prom iso' sort of gardens and mighty few of the real sure enough kind. "We have been told repeatedly by those who plan and prepare for a real garden, plant it, tend it and keep' it replanted through the season, that il furnishes half the family living at no money cost except the. small amount bpent for the seeds needed. .; ; "The garden is, or rather should be, the earliest planted. , It brings food the quickest It starts cutting store bills for food the first week anything is ready to use. A little later, half or more needed for the table comes out of the garden. : "lf rightly fended and. replanted It supplies food all summer and fall, the surplus above daily needs goes into cans or is dried for winter use. .Yes. the right kind of garden is a life saver, and we all need a life-saver of this, kind in 1921."
