CAREFUL DOCTOR
Prescribed Change of Food Instead of
Drugs.
It takes considerable courage for a
doctor to deliberately prescribe only |
food for a despairing patient, instead j
of resorting to tbe usual list of medi
cines.
There are some truly scientific phy
sicians among the present generation
who recognize and treat conditions as ;
they are and should be treated, re- j
gardless of the value to their pockets,
Here's an instance:
"Four years ago I was taken "with
severe gastritis and nothing would
stay on my stomach, so that I was on
tbe verge of starvation.
"I heard of a doctor who had a sum
mer cottage near me?a specialist
from N. Y.?and as a last hope, sent
for him.
"After he examined me carefully
he advised me to try a small quantity j
of Grape-Nuts at first, then as my |
stomach became stronger to eat more.
"I kept at it and gradually got so I
could eat and digest three teaspoon
fuls. Then I began to have color in
my face, memory became clear, where
before everything seemed a blank. My
limbs got stronger and I could walk.
So I steadily recovered.
"Now after a year on Grape-Nuts I
weigh 153 lbs. My people were sur
prised at the way I grew fleshy and
strong on this food." Name given by

Columbia.?"I regret that I do not
see my way clear to issue a warrant
jn the state treasurer for the pay
ment of your claim." This statement
is contained in a letter given out up

ler general of South Carolina, who
tias refused to pay a claim of $180.25,
submitted by P. H. Corley, who was
ippointed chief constable of South.
Carolina by the governor during the
campaign. The comptroller general
takes the position that to issue the
warrant would not be according to
law. He inltormed the chief consta
ble that the case should b9 decided

will not be honored until the deci
sion 1b given. The expense account

and mileage, chief constable, In ac
cordance with section 721, code of
laws 1912, together with order of ap
proval for payment out of the special
fund for enforcement of the law at
the disposition of the governor.
"I regret that I do not see my way
ilear to issue a warrant on the state
treasurer for the payment of your
claim. My declining to issue the war
rant is because of section 43 of the,
aDDronriation act of 1912, p. 986,

ERS OF STATE TO MARKET
COTTON SLOWLY.
YIELD IS NOT OVER LARGE

Fleecy Staple.?With Proper Policy,
Prices Should Go to 15 Centii by
January 1st.

from R. M. Mlxson, un expert in rail
road rates, a farmer of Williston and
a member of the newly elected house
of representatives, will be found of
interest to that large class to whom
it is directed r
To the Cotton Planters and Merchants
of the state:
The season is sufficiently advanced
to enable us to make a reasonably
correct estimate of yield of cotton
for the season of 1912-13.
My information from every section
of every state in the cotton belt indi
cates a yield from the cotton crop
grown this year of 12,181,924 bales of
500 pounds each. The crop by states
Is, in my opinion, as follows:
Bales.
Alabama 1,179,609
Arkansas 695,404
Florida 71,219
Georgia. * .. .. 2,124,057
Louisiana 282,573
Mississippi 865,742
North Carolina 852,932
Oklahoma 803,504
South Carolina 1,275,847
Tennessee 352,274
Texas .. 3,573,758
Total 12,181,724
These figures are full and wjll rath
er be over than under the crop. The
demand for cloth is good and sales
are made at full figures.
Spinners are staying out of the
market, hoping to force the price of
cotton still lower, believing that the
bulk of the crop will be forced upon
the market by November 1 and sold
at a sacrifice.
Now is the time to market your
cotton as slowly as possible. "You
must meet this Btay-out of the mar
ket policy of the spinners by staying
out of the market yourself. Don't
offer a bate for sale that you can pos
sibly hold. Warehouiie your cotton
and borrow money on it, if you must
to pay yor.r debts, tut don't sell. If
the South will follow this policy you
will, in my opinion, nee 15 cents cot
ton by January l, Dut 11 you rusn it
on the market and have it sold at
foi*ced sale, you will, in my opinion,
see it sell at or below 11 cents.
If this crop Is marketed slowly you
will, in my opinion, nee an ascending
market, uiitil 15 certs is reached.
(Signed) R. M. MIXSON.
Crop Outlook i? Very Good.
Sharon.?In Bpite of the red spider
ravages, in spite of blight and the
withering heat of August, St seems
now that this section will have a good
balance on the right side of the led
ger as the result of the section's ag
ricultural operations. The cotton crop
will not set a new record, for it haa
met with various misfortunes, yet the
crop is su'Rciently advanced to make
It certain i:hat the yield of the cotton
fields will average fairly well. In
spite of th9 unpromising start, a good
crop of corn has been made, and with
the excepl.ion of a few farmers all
will gather into their barns an abun
dant hay crop.
Interest in Dispensary Election.
Chester.?Chester county's registra
tion for :he general election, at
which tim s the dispensary is also to
be voted on in the county, accounting
no doubt for the heavy registration,
Is 2,905. There is intense interest in
the county concerning the dispensary
election, i.nd both sides will fight
hard. Several months ago the Chris
tian Civic League of Chester county
was organized for the purpose of
fighting the efforts to reestablish the
dispensary, and it is paid that ex-Gov
ernor R. B. Glenn, of North Carolina,
and other distinguished speakers will
! be secured a few weeks before the
election crmes off.
Will Not Tolerate Hazing.
Columbia.?Railroad Commissioner
John G. Richards, stirred by the re
ports of having at Clemson College,
called up President Riggs of that in
stitution over the long distance tele
phone and asked about the matter.
President Riggs stated that he was
surprised that reports stating that
brutal hazing had taken place had
gotten abroad for there was very lit
tle in it. He said that one memj^er
of the junior class had been expelled
for hazing and that it was a very mild
case.
Threats of Violence Made.
Aiken.?Considerable interest at
taches to the election in the recent
second primary of Mr. Hugh Long to
the house of representatives, in that
it is reported that, as a direct result
of his election, there have come, from
the eastern section cf the county, par
ticularly Waj?ener?of which town he
is the present m^yor?and environs,
alleged threats of dire violence to his
person in the even': that he should
