out FARMERS HAVE A
MONEY MAKING CHANCE
“The year 1923 presents a wonderful
chance for money-making to level head-
ed common sense farmers all over the
South,” said H. G. Hastings, prominent
agricultural leader, recently.
“By this we do not mean an expand-
ed cotton^acreage over that of 1922, but
just the contrary. There were enough
acres planted in cotton last year to
furnish, under normal season of growth,
all the American cotton that the world
can afford to pay a price for that will
reward the cdtton grower adequately
for his work.
“Every effort will be made by cotton
speculators and the European cotton
mills to encourage larger acreage. The
present price of cotton distinctly’ en-
courages our folks to go ‘cotton crazy’
again just as they always have in high
price periods in past years. Every
time there has been increased^ cotton
acreage in high price periods there has
followed a mountain of debt and farmer
bankruptcies the following fall and win-
ter. „
“Increased acreage in cotton in 1923
should be fought like fire. Stick to
that acreage which has been found safe
under weevil conditions. Cultivate and
fertilize to increase yield per acre as
much as you please, but don’t Increase
acreage. If you do you simply play’
Into the hands of the, speculators again.
“Plant every available acre outside
the limited cotton acreage in food, grain
and forage crops. No farmer can af-
ford to buy food and grain from mer-
chants when that food and grain can be
produced on home acres at certainly
not more than half the store price.
"Further, every dollar's worth pro-
duced on home acres In the way of
needed food and grain for home con-
sumption means a dollar less spent or
gone Into debt for. If we all ‘lived at
borne and boarded at the same place’
most of our cotton money would stick
in our pookete or to our account in the
bank instead of all going to pay debts.
The money that sticks is the money
that counts.”

This is the range that saves 1/3jo 1/2 in fuel, by

other stoves and ranges allow to go to waste up
the chimney. It gets every particle of heat out
of the fuel, no matter what kind you use.

Cole s Hot Blast
Down Draft Ran_
Cole’s Patented Hot Blast method of combustion bums these
.fuel gases, with the smoke and soot, by mixing them with
'super-heated air. Thus it bums more air—which is free— .
and less costly fuel. This saving of to Vi has been proved
in thousands of homes all over the country.
Built to f-ast Through Years
This beautiful range is built to last through the years. The
entire inner construction, except the firebox, is of heavy
gauge Armco rust-resisting iron, enameled, making this one
of the strongest and most durable ranges ever built.
The large oven is heavily braced, with corrugated bottom.
It heats quickly and bakes as fast as a gas oven. Cole’s
accurate compensating oven thermometer always shows ex-
act temperature.
Bums Coal or Wood
Cole's Saves Coal1
Grates are duplex combination, for either coal or wood. You
can use long wood. The quick heating cooking top has
sensitive lids. The large double warming closet is a great
convenience.
Here is a range you can be proud of.
