and desire to do the very best
thing, The Reflector feels sure
they will build a court house

to the county. The eyes of the
whole State are now on Pitt

of the best in North Carolina,

to see the county take a great
step forward and in building

Are You
Honest
With your land when for the
sake of saving a few dollars
you use a fertilizer whose
only recommendation is its
analysis. It requires no
ledge to mix mate-
rials to analyses. The value
of a fertilizer lies in the ma-
used, so as not to
over feed the plant at one
time and starve at another.
This is why Royster brands
are so popular. Every in-
has its particular
work to do. Twenty-five
years experience in making
goods for Southern crops has
enabled us to know what is
required.

Women Do Own Sewing
If you have ever used a Singer you know
what it is to get your needlework done
without bother or trouble, without
or annoyance, and without a bit of tiring.
Ask any user of a Singer. There are
more Singers in operation today than all
other makes combined.
J Their users constitute the Singer's best
advertisement.
A Singer docs perfect work.
The running and working qualities of
each Singer arc thoroughly tested before
it leaves the Singer factory and that is
why it will stand the hardest kind of
use, and even abuse, throughout an
nary lifetime.
I You'll find the Singer nameplate, the em-
of the Singer reputation and the Sing-
guarantee, on every genuine Singer.
