WEAK,NERVOUS
Mr. Enoch Moore, of Oconee, S. C., tells how Ziron helped him: “I
was nervous, and my limbs seemed to ache as though 1 was scared—or
some such feeling, I can hardly describe it. I would have weak
'‘trembles.” I was sallow, had a draggy, worn feeling; didn’t rest well
at night. I read of Ziron and thought if it had helped others it might do
the same for me. 1 knew I could at least try it. I began using

The o^ly remedy for the_ present
situation upon which all deem to be
agreed is acreage reduction. Most
cotton sections know no money crop
11 eycepL Cotton. How can the land-
owner or tenant figure to keep body
and soul fogether*on a greatly re
duced acreage of cotton even if the -5P
preaeiit price is doubled? Yet they *<*♦
must someftSw do this if better prices
are to be*hoped for.
What the South needs is a steady
price for cotton which will allow a
fair return to the landowner and de
cent wages to the tenant. ’At the
preseijt costs of the commodities they
must buy for crop making purposes,
30 cents is, we believe, the lo
price which the industry , should con?
bider. Thirty cents will not-pay: the
landowner dr tenant on Jthe very re
stricted acreage that must be planted
this year. It will give the tenant
fariper producing a bale to the acre
on ten acres only a little over $1?50
per day for the support of his family
or about half of this if~he'"makes a
normal yield of one-half bale per acre.
A few weeks ago the writer was
talking'With a banker from West Vir
ginia who told him that he hafj just
O K’d a payroll for a small coal mine
and that the average daily paty of the
laborers was over $17.40 per day, re
marking that these labojers were
working six hours per day but that
they were only employed 60 per cent,
of their time on account of car short
age. I have other evidence to show,
that the coal miners are receiving at
least ten times as much as the-cotton
laborers, who are also paid far -less

and very shortly I felt better, ate and slept more, and the weak, nervous
feeling gradually left me. It was a tonic—a builder—I needed, and Ziron
seemed to hit the spot.”
If Mr. Moore had not been benefited by the first bottle of>Zlron he
took, he could have gotten his money back, for Ziron is sold\>y reliable
druggists everywhere on a money-back guarantee.
Insist upon Ziron Iron Tonic. When you need Ziron, there’s noth
ing else as good, so refuse imitations and substitutes.
Ask your druggist for Ziron. Accept no substitutes. 2^,3

churches, roads and othOr facilities
necessary to the maintenance of a de
cent civilization. Bankers, merchants
and professional men ar^ cooperating
heartily with the farmers to protect
the basic industry of fne South. This
is not enough, how T ever, The whole
country is affected by the condition
of every section. If the South _ is
stricken with poverty! its laborers will
flock to the cities pf the North and
West and intensify their race and la
bor problems. If the Southern farm
cannot meet expenses for a long pe
riod the resulting financial chaos will
affect all thp money and trade centers
of the country*, If We do not receive
sufficient money returns to support a
decent civilization, the*civilization of
all sections will he affected.

The understanding sympathy of the

to the South nor remove the necessity
for acreage reduction and other meas
ures necessary to equalize the supply
