London Statist Has Gloomy Vision of Future for the World BRITISH TRADE TO BE DEMORALIZED Supremacy at Sea Threatened by U. s.-industria; Unrest That the present war will not end all wars, and that a state of peace to follow will last only just so long as it will take the present belligerents to recover from their exhaustion is set forth at some length in the latest issue of the London Statist to reach this side, says The New Y%,rk Times. The journal, which is a force and authority in economics and finance in Great Britain, believes that Engind will have to keep up a considerable army and navy in any event and that a league of nations designed to make war imoAsible is nothing but a ".pretty dream." It believes, also, that Britain's ascendency at sea is threat ened by America, not because of Amer ican initiative with that end in view, but because, if the war continues for four or five or six years, British trade will be demoralized. This glcony conception of things from the British standpoint is pre sented in one of a series of articles which the Statist is running on the theme of the public debt in relation to the suggestion that the wealthy of that country aid in liquidating it ac I I Recommeni I Do Not fThink I Ever Felt Much & Better Mrs. William .

It says: "It has been proposed, as everybody knows, that a league of nations should be formed to make war impossible for the future. Tiat is a dream which is not practicable in this world of ours. What may happen when we reach a real civilization it would be absurd to speculate. But in our present semi civilization it is perfectly certain that this war will not end all war. On the contra: y, it will leave behind it in numerable causes of quarrel, which -v ohay or other will have to be set tied by fresh wars. For example, is not eery man of common sense, whvo has had some experience of life, and who knows from that experience how those feel who have done their very utmost to injure others and have been defeated, aware that those who wish ed to injure and did not fully succeed are the bitterest of all enemies? That being so, does any sane man doubt that a hatred of at least this coun ry and France will animate Germans, Austrians and Magayrs for many a long day after the struggle term nates ? Peace Path Not Rose Strewn. "Further illustrations of what is likely to be encountered will occur to every reader. For instance, we have only to look at Russia as she is to convince ourselves that even those who are so anxious to make friends of the Central Euroepan powers are not able to avoid internal conflicts. Then there are the relations between Aus tria-Hungary, on the one hand, and her Slav subjects and the Balkan States on the other. Further, look at the relations between the other Balk an States and Bulgaria.

I recommend Peruna to all sufferers with catarrh. I do not think I ever felt much bet ter. I am really surprised at the work I can do. I do not think too much praise can be said for Peruna."

Lastly, there are all .dt the thorny questions raised by She present con dition of such countries as China. "Whenever peace is restored, then we may indeed reasonably hope that there will be a few years of peace for the simple reason that the present belligerents will be exhausted. But that any hocus-pocus arrangements will prevent wars in the future is a pretty dream, which sensible men treat as a dream and nothing more. Consequently we shall have to keep up a considerable navy, as well as to take care of a mountain of debt which will be crushing. "While we are in this state our ex isting army and our navy will be dis banded, or at all events such portions of both as will apparently not be re quired for the immediate future. Therefore, we shall have millions of men suddenly turned adrift upon the world to find some means of liveli hood at home or abroad. Of these have suffered in health from exposure men a considerable proportion will to the weather, from disabling wounds and from the effects of wounds that no doubt have been cured, but leave the men less healthy than they formerly were. All this means that among the millions of men dis charged there will be a considerable proportion not as competent, from the purely labor point' of view, as they were. before they undertook to fight for the country. Places Filled by Women "These men will find that their old places have largely been taken by nomen, and as there will not be hus bands for some millions of these wo men it is celariy ou: or the question that they should be turned adrift to sink or swim according to their capa bilities. We shall have, therefore, a rivalry between men and women for employment. All this would be seri. ous enough if we could assume that the country would quickly recover its old prosperity. But it is as plain as anything can be to every thinking per son that the country cannot quickly recover its prosperity. "All the available savings by the belligerent States, without exception, since the middle of 1914 until the ar mies are disbanded, :.nte we find our selves face to face with our accumu lated difficulties will have takeil into its hands the management of most of the industries of the country, and will ha ve turned them all into fail urnes. M'>reover, the great multitude of establishments that were taken over to manufacture munitions, wvhen it wvas found that we had light heart edly entered into the wvar without so niuch as thinking even of the neces sity foir providling ourselves with mu nittons---all these great establish nie, ts have been turnoui insidle out.

IN MORRIS NES Headqu "TANLAC IS i[B[ST REMEDY I EVER TOOK" Mrs. Cisson Has Strongest Endorse ment for It ENJOYS FINE HEALTH Year Preiously, she says, Tanlac Gave Her Lasting Relief "'tanlac is the best remedy I ever took for my trouble, and I am glad to recommend it because it gave such fine results," said Mrs. Jessie Cisson, of No. 15 Main St., Woodside, Green ville, in a statement she gave May 31st. "I took Tanlac for a generally run down and weakened condition, and at the time I was almost sure I had a mild case of pellagra. I was very weak and fery nervous. My head ached all the time. I was troubled a lot with dizziness and my appetite had about left me. "But I felt like a new person when I quit taking Tanlac. I gained in weight and strength right from the time I began taking it. I soon had a good appetite, and the Tanlac soon had me feeling well and strong. The headaches and nervousness were soon relieved. I am enjoying fine health now and have been ever since I quit taking Tanlac, and that was a year ago." Tanlae, the Master Medicine, is sold by Dickson's Drug Store, Manning; II. W.

In its cam paign to increase poultry production, thle Uniitedl States Department of Ag rieulture puts sp~ecial emlphasis upon01 the imlportance of early hlatching be0 cause that is thle key to thle whole sit ulationl. Chicks hlatchedl early are st ronger-, thrive bette*r and have the adlvantage of a longer growing sea son.

While chickens can he hatched at any time of the year, it is the chlickens hatched early in tihe spring thlat give the b)est re sults. Hatching should begin from February 1 in the South to March 1 in the North andl West, andl should be completed by May 1. The usual time for starting the incubators and sitting hens coincides too closely with the planting season on the farms and hatch ing operations are likely to be redlucedl on that account! Therefore, hatch early. Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S C A ST O p IA perity Prosperity? If you have, you Never give up, and Oppor ou simply CAN'T look ill-dre S. Manager. erters For TO BA4 The city poultry keeper should tack le the business of hatching chicks or buying and rearing "day-old" chicks cautiously 'or not at all. Often it is inadvisable to attempt to renew the city poultry flock even though the temptation comes strongly to the poultry beginner with the first warm (lays of spring. Previous experience in the raising of chicks often increas es the chances of success, but the land available to the back-yard poultry man usually is too small to undertake a chick business. No attempt should be made to raise chicks unless a plot can be provided separate from that to which the hens have access and upon "hich there is grass or where a supply of green feed can be furnished. Where these con ditions can not be had it is better for the beginner who is keeping only hens for eggs to kill the hens as soon as they have outlived their usefulness and replace them by well-matured pul lets in the fall. If it is believed practicable to hatch and rear a few chicks, this can best be clone with hens.

It would be well for the beginner to obtain from the Department of Ag riculture or from State agricultural colleges, publications on hatching and rearing. In tests of a large series of insecti cides conducted by entomologists of the U. S.
