and their friends. Any woman may try Stella Vitae on

The Patriot 95773
The King Pin of the Duroc Breed
Do not take our word for it, just ask any
one of the men from Union JDounty who
made tne boosters trip to Peacock and
Hodge's sale at Cochran, Georgia, and look
over the 1919 International Grand Champion.
Ask them if the Patriot is not a better
Boar than any they saw on the trip.
Superior Defender and Fred's Crimper
and Junior Fancy Orion
Are in just as good class as any of them. We
say it without fear of contradiction that Sardis
Farm has the best equipment, the best
hogs and as good management as you can
find, and as for Herd Boars no farm can
boast of any better.
ON TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7th 1920
We will sell a bunch of as good Sows and
Gilts and Boars as will be offered this fall
and we are especially appealing to the farmers
in this offering.
IF YOU HAD
Gone with us to Cochran and gone into the
six acre cotton field where $1,000.00 worth
of Arsenate of Lead had been used in spraying
the plants and $225.00 spent for the
spray machine and the work done at night,
and seen cotton waist high with from three
to ten bolls to the stalk and thousands of boll
weevils, and hear the owner tell us that the
poison seemed to fatten the weevils instead
of kill them, you would not wonder why
Peacock and Hodge had a $581.00 average
on forty-two head sold. A local farmer
bought five of the best sows in his sale, paying
$1,350.00 for one.
All Comnetent Authorities Sav
The boll weevil will come into Union County
and destroy the cotton crop. It seems that
"a word to the wise should be sufficient."

7th, 1920.

JAPAN REALLY BACK NUMBER
Writer Bring- Forward Argument* to
Prove That the Chinese Are ths
More Progressive.
It may strike the western render as
simply funny, but more than one Chinese
friend has assured me that it is
the Japanese people who are really
conservative. And they back up their
assertion by evidence other than the
way in which Japan has clung through
all historic vicissitudes, to a primitive
theocracy, John Dewey writes in Asia
Magazine. They point out, foe example
that a thousand years ago the Japanese
borrowed the present style of
clothing and of household furnishing,
of sitting and sleeping on mats, from
China; that China has changed several
times, moving constantly In the direction
of practical utility, of ingenious
adaptation of means to needs. The
Chinese cuisine Is another argument.
It Is doubtless the most extensive la
the world In the variety of material
employed for food, and also the most
varied In Its combinations. Academic
analysis may despise arguments drawn
from food, clothing, shelter and furnishings.
But when one notes the variety
and Ingenuity of the processes
and appliances used in dally life and In
the crafts, one is certain that the Chinese
mind is naturally observant and
adaptive. But It seems unnecessary to
labor the question. Many charges have
been brought against the Chinese, but
n# one has ever accused them of stupidity.
Their undoubted conservatism
Is something to be explained rather
than an explanation of anything.
TO PRISON FOR WITCHCRAFT
Canadian Authorities Revive Ancient
Statute That Will Appear Absurd to
Modem Wndermtaodln?
It has been a little more than 200
years since anyone was convicted of
witchcraft on this continent says the
Oolumbus Dispatch, and we supposed
that there would never again be any
more convictions. But It se^ms that
such prosecutions have been revived,
for here comes a report from a Canadian
coart to the effect that a young
woman aver there has lately been sentenced
to prison for "practicing witchcraft"
for all tbe world like the accusations
that used to be filed against
people In this country.
The young woman In this case
claimed to be able to tell who committed
a certain theft In her neighborhood.
She said a farmer's oats had been
stolen by a man and a boy; that they
drove a hay mare, and proceeded westward
after the robbery, and that they
would be found at a certain place,
about 40 miles away. The officers
found her story to be true, and arrested
the parties who robbed ths
farmer, but as the young woman who
gave the Information was In no position
to know the facts she related
en&cept through communing with "the
spirits," people began talking about
her being a witch, with the result that
an ancient statute was Invoked and
the girl prosecuted and sent to Jail
for her pains In aiding the officers of
the law. If It were not all duly recorded
In the newspapers we could not believe
It.
"Rent Free" Houses.
At Llewelyn, Pa., there are 60 empty
houses, which for years have stood untenanted,
a veritable deserted village
In the beautiful valley of the West
Branch of Chester creek. Even the
war with Its demands, failed to repeople
the town. About a month ago some
of the houses were rented and a Jitney
line was established between the town
and Chester. Still there remained 00
houses that were fast going Into decay
by reason of not being occupied. The
owners conceived the Idea of having
the properties fixed up by giving them
rent free te workmen who would repair
them and take care of them. The only
stipulations made In selecting tenants
are that they be respectable and thrifty
people who will take pride In maintnlncr
onf) (mnrnrfns fVi a Kaiicao sail
M?U1U15 BUU |Ui{;iUTIU|^ U1C UUUOCD onu
that they agree to make all repairs at
their own expense.
Perfumed Petrol.
Will motorcars in the future perfume
our streetR with the scent of ahtar
of roses Instead of the evil-smelling
mixture which ofTends our nestrlhl
as they pass?
The question Is suggested by the
statement that a quarter of a million
gallons of motor spirit can be produced
In the Hyderabad state of India by
distilling the flowers of the mowra
tree.
Mowra flowers ^re very rich In sugar,
and a ton cil^Rie dried flowers
produces as much as 00 gallons of 95
par cent pure spirit. They have long
been In use for the preparation of a
native alcoholic liquor; but only a
small proportion of the trees available
Is needed for this purpose.
Resourceful Prevaricator.
A Lancashire man, who was afraid
of bis wife, arranged to go to the races
with some friends, an'' explained to
her th*at he was going fishing. On his
way he called at a fish shop and asked
the proprietor to send some fish home.
Fish was very scarce that day, and a
lot of cods' heads were delivered. When
hubby returned home, after an enjoy*
able time, he said to his wife:
"Well, lass, did you get the flsh I
sent you?"
"I got a lot of cods' heads," was her
reply.
"Quite right," was the retort "Ton
never saw such flsh In your life as wa
hud to tackle today. Before yon conld
land 'em, you had to pull their bloom*
ing heads off!"?London Answers.

BABY'S FOOD
The high mortality of infants (one
out of every three) is due very largely
to the fact that the baby cannot select
its own food, as does the adult, but ?
muts take what is given it. Often the
food is inferior in quality, or even positively
poisonous.
How can the mother tell whether
the baby's food is right?
One way is to watch the actions. If
they are regular and natural and the
baby is gaining in weight, the food is
all right. Constipation and diarrhoea
have immediate attention.
To correct indigestion and regulate
the stomach and bowels the baby
specialists have perfected a gentle
laxative and regulator called "Baby
Ease" laxative, which the mother may
obtain, with full directions, at any
drug store. "Baby Ease" is an invaluable
aid to the baby's health, and
no mother should be without it for
emergencies.
Do not uuse the strong and girritating
laxatives such as are commonly
used, nor anything containing apiates
or powerful drugs. They irritate the
aencate organs and lead to chroaic indigestion
and constipation. "Baby
Ease" laxative is a corrective and regulator
as well as a gentle laxative,
and will promptly and permanently
correct indigestion, colic, diarrhoea
and constipation. The mother should
then look carefully to the purity,
freshness and wholesomeness of the
baby's food ,the cleanliness of the bottles,
etc., and should consult the physician
if the child does not steadily
gain in weight.?Ad.
