C. - Making More Money Out of Cotton Crops « is merely a question of using enough of the right kind of fertilizers. Virginia-Carolina F ertilizers are the right kind. The cotton plant cannot feed on barren land. Study 3 F our soil. Find out what it lacks. Then apply the necessary fertilization and the results Will surprise you. See what Mr. W. C. Hiys of Smith Station, Ala., did. He says: *‘I planted ubout 30 acres of some 'gray sandy land' that bad been in cultivation (or over 20 years, and used 300 pounds of Virginia-Caro lina Ferulizers per acre, and t expect to gather 30 balet from the 30 acret.” Thia is why we £ay it is the right kind.

On August 80. ’08, I contracted cold and developed Grippe and was laid up fiive w'eeka. My bronchial tubes were badly af fected, which caused me to cough continually and prevented my sleeping at night. I tried all the old remedies which usually gave me relief but failed. Johnson’s Chill and Fever Tonic was recommended to me as a guaranteed cure for grippe and colds and I was purscaded to try it. After taking according to directions for one week, I found myself entirely jcured of my cold and grippe, and my sys tem in first-class condition. I regard it as one of the best medi cines I have ever used ir my family and can cheerfully recom mend it to anyone suffering from a like trouble or general debilitated system. B. G. BENTON.
