It takes more teaching force
and better teachers to teach
our system and methods; our
teachers arc not only teacher*
of Bookkeepiug, but they
must be well informed on
business customs. When a
student learns to do a thing
by actually doiug it, he learns
it thoroughly, and with our
practical, face to face business
methods we are able to give
the student a thorough course
of bookkeepiug and busiuess
training in less time than he
could possibly get the theory,
or so called practical book-
keeping alone in other schools.
We will give a free schofar-
ship in the school of youi
choice to anyone finding
another school in this state
teaching both bookkeepiug
and business through practi-
cal business tnusaction as we
do. Similar practical tneth
ods are used in teaching
Shorthand, Steno—typewrit-
ing, cotton classing, telegra-
phy and business administra-
tion and fiuance. We believe
in learning to do in the school
room that which you must do
when going iuto the business
world, and it is this policy
that has made the Tyler Com-
mercial College of Tyler,
Texas, the largest school of
the kiud iu America.
Write for large free cata-
logue explaining our original
methods of teaching and se-
curing positions. There is a
reason for our school drawing
patronage from thirty-nine
different states and seven for-
eign countries. Investigate
it, the best ii none to good
for you, for you must use this
education foi life and its
quality measures your success.

Why Plant Clover Crops
Within the last three
weeks I have been asked
several times how we could
hold the fertility of our lands
I have replied first terrace;
second inauure. However,
after we have terraced we find
that our lauds build up very
fast,
It is useless for us to try
and build up our lands by
stable or stock yard manure.
We have too few stock for the
first and too little money for
the second. However manure
shipped from Ft. Worth to
our country is cheaper than
commercial fertilizer. Tnen
the thiug for us to do is to
grow some crop ou our soil
that can turn under for ma-
nure. I have always thought
that we needed a crop that
would do tor our soil in the
winter what cow peas de in
the summer. Namely take
the nitrogen from the air and
store it up in little roots to be
used by other olauts. Win-
ter clovert, do this. Vetch,
crimsonjj clover, burr clover
aud white clover will do this
provided we can get a stand
AU these plants i.eed to be
inoculated with special bac-
"Cured"
Mrs. Jay McOofi, ot Steph-
enville, Texas, mites: ' For
nine (9) yean, 1 tillered with
womanly trouble. I had ter-
rible headaches, and pains in
my back, etc. It seemed as ii
1 would die, I suffered so. At
last, I decided to try Cardui,
the woman's tonic, and It
helped me right away. The
full treatment not only helped
me, but it cured me."
TAKE
Cardui
fl The Woman's Tonic
Cardui helps women in time
of greatest need, because it
contains ingredients which act
specifically, yet gently, on the
weakened womanly organs.
So, If you feel discouraged,
blue, out-of-sorts. unable to
do your household work, on
account of your coat u. i, stop
worrying and give lui a
trial. It has helped t ands
of women,—why d. you ?
Try Cardui. E-71
jteri.i before they will grow,
j However, there are other
crops tint do well here that
need no special care. Wheat,
outs, rye or barley, will grow
without being inoculated, but
they only hold what plant
food which our soils may
ha.e available aud do not add
nitrogen. Its foolishness to
plow your soils during the
summer and let air down in
the soil and make plant tood
ready for use, when the laud
is goiug to lie idle all winter
aud this plant food wash and
leach out. Some object to the
cost of seed. A good oat or
wheat pasture will more than
pay for the seed. It has been
my experience that stock
brought through the winter
ou a good wheat, oat or rye
pasture, come out in far better
condition than other stock.
| Then it wheat, oits or iyv! be
I turned under about the mid-
dle of March it is worth from
four to eight dollars per acre
for humus,
The s il may be compared
to your bank account. If you
i continually t ike from, with-
out adding to, soon your
checks are returned, marked
''not sufficient funds." The
great problem of the south is
the probrem of fertile soils.
A poor soil means a poor
couutry, poor roads, poor
! barns, poor houses, poor edu-
cational facilities, aud a poor
I people. Why not try some
kind of a cover crop on your
soil this fall any wav?
