Bingham, the North Carolinian who has lead the Kentucky Burley Growers Association to success and recently addressed en thusiast audiences of business men and farmers in Raleigh and Goldsboro, North Carolina. Judge Binghams' speech will be mailed this week to every member of the Association from the northern limit of the tobacco area in Virginia to the Georgia line in the Tri-State Tobacco Grower, the official organ of the 70,000 organized tobacco farmers. Any growers who may feel baffled by the smoke screen of misleading statements thrown out by the specula tive interests needl only to read Judge Binghams speech to learn of the conm plete success of t'he Kentucky Burley Growers in marketing their tobacco by co-operative sale. Judge Bin gham tells why Kentucky growers In the Association could sell 30,000,000 pounds of their tobacco at one time for a higher price than the average of tIpe open market. He also told why* he loaned the organized Kentucky growers a million dlollars5 andl willingly offered the Carolina Virginia Association an advance of $300,000.

Now that he has gone and left us, Has gone forever from our shore, But we hope to meet him in heaven, Where our grief will be no more, There was an Angel hand in heaver, . Not quite complete, So God called our dear father to fill that vacant seat. Gone from sorrow, grief and anguish, Gone from earth no. more to languish, Gone thy loving soul set free But, oh! how hard to part with thee! In silence you suffered, in patience you bore, Until God called you home to suffer no more. A loving daughter. Mrs. C. B. Aycock. SHIPPING BOARD IN BIG RATE WAR Fight May Spread to Other Routes. Says Chairman Lasker. Washington, April 24.-the Ship ping Board, as the result of "the rate war" of the Lamport and Holt Steamship Company, to South Ameri ca, through four Shipping, Board vesseic of the Munson line, has not only met those rates, but made a further reduction to $295 to Rio de .Janeiro, $345 to Montevideo and $360 to Buenos Aires, Chairman Las ker announced today. The Lamport and Holt rates were reduced from $415 to $315 for Rio de Janeiro, from $47I5 to $360 for Montevideo and from $490 to $370 for Buenos Aires, but these, Chair man Lasker said, were for "their inferior ships," and did not apply to the Van byke, which, he said,. corresponds to the Shipping Board vesels. Pan-American, Southern Cross, Western World and American Legion. .Lamnport and Holt also announced, .UNHAKEN TE8IMOR 'rime is the test of truth. And Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the test in Manning. No Manning resi .dent wvho suffers backache, or annoy ing urinary ills can remain uncon vinced by this twice-told testimony. W. N. Hill, grocer, S. Boundary St., Manning, says: "I was troubled with my kidneys and had pains in the small of my back. M~y nerves were so unstrung that at times I woul~d shake. I also had dizzy spells and black specks came before me. I was so tired that I wanted to sleep all the time. A friend told me about Doan's Kidney Pills so I bought abo at Dickson's Ph armnacy and took th epn accordling to directions. Before I had finished taking Doan's I was entirely cured and haven't been troubled since." (Statement given February 10, 1918). On February 20, 1922, Mr. Hill add ed: "It has been a long time since I have used a kidney med icine. Doan's Kidney Pills cured me some years ago and i gladly confirm all I said in 1918." 60c, at dealers. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs. Bnfaln. N. Y.

STUKES effective' July 1, a reduction in the round trip rate to $500 for Rio de Janeiro, and to meet this the Ship ping Board has decided upon a rate of $450, effective the same date. Chairman Lasker said the new "straight rates" would become ef fective immediately. The Lamport and Holt action, he added, was taken without consulting the Munson line or the Shipping Board, and could only be interpreted as "a declara tion of war" in the South American trade. This war, he continued, may be the forerunner of similar ones in other ocean passenger service in an effort to drive the Amoricain flag off the seas. "But our hat is in the ring," he declared, "and we will stick as long as necessary to assure American domination of tIe passen ger traffice on all oceans." Asserting that Lamport and Holt 'are running a British flag line," Chairman Lasker said the action of this company was out of a clear sky, although the old rates were 'subject to adjustment, and were, we all believed, too high." "We can take the action," he added, "as nothing but an un friendiy one Intended to cripple the American merchant marine and its establishment of the first high class service under the American flag between North and South America. The whole action in cut ing th~e rates without conference with us, when we admit they should have bgen adjuste, where we have been working so friendly could only he interpreted as a dee laration of war in this trade."
