But our farmers are not doing what they could or should do. Too many farmers dc pend on buying their home supplies and then make cotton and tobacco tQ pay for it with. We haven't thing against our merchants. W.. need them and can't get along with out them and think we ought to feed irifm. wow l mean the farmer ought to grow more corn, potatoes, whpat, i fruit and vegetables and raise meat and lard to sell to the merchants instead of going to the merchant foi such things and then have to mak cotton and tobacco to pay for it with. If every farmer would raise, plenty of corn and meat, wheat and vegetables to supply his home.. . ?.?uL. ) then some extra to sell, it would reI duce the cost of living and we would not hear the coy of "cost so much to live" any more, and then when the farmer had a few hales of cotton t? .,.11 .... .. 1 C 4 4 1 4..U K_ 1.1 i - r VII \'l it nilll- luuunu UC WUUUI IJf'i, il good price for it. I.Mr. O. E. James of (lalivants Kerry, R. K. I). No. 1, began preparing to farm in the fall of the year of } HlOti. He bought one cow, a few hogs, made him a pasture and put ' filGi'ii in. In 1 1 o lie bought anoliicr f cow. Now Mr. James tells us that sin.o the first year of farming ho has sold corn and meat every year and sold one hundred and fifty-three dollars worth of cattle and has three I in his stables, that he couhln't sell for one hundred. Now Mr. James makes cotton and tobacco and when he sells it he can put the money in his pocket instead of giving it to the | merchant to send to the Northern markets for corn and meat. L Mr. Farmer, lets wake up. Wo have fine farming land and all the . good things we eat or the fire things we wear, the carriage or automobile wo ride in, we hate to look to old f mother earth for. Now I think a was a good idea the people got whet they started the Corn Clubs for I Ik ^ boys. I think they made a mistake r by having one acre. Instead they J ought to have had six acres, that I would huve made enough corn for home use and then the boys oou'd have sold some. Now some of the boys, if not all, look to their fathci for help in that ucie and they just put all they can in that one acre and the other corn crop goes lacking, and then it is soon used up and they have to buy corn to make another acre on. What we want is to make farmer., out of our boys, learn them how to ' live on the farm. It is a very com} mon thing to see our young men and boys canvassing the neighborhood ' trying to sell some article in order to j raise a little money for some personal use. We often see girls going around among the farmers' wives with order books as they call them i asking their friends to take an order with them to enable them to get a premium Now my dear farmer, we / all know that money goes to the i Northern markets instead ' of being 1 spent here at home. Let us see if wo cannot remedy that. Why not give f the boy one acre or two and help him to prepare it and sow down some good alfalfa or grass seed that will last several years and then that boy can cut it down three or four times a year and he will have plenty tMimTiic ijin vv l nil VI For Sprains, Lameness, > Sores, Cuts, Rheumatism Penetrate* and Heal*.

There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a ] rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deaf- ! ness is the result, and unless the in- ( flanimation can be taken out and this t tube restored to its normal condition, ( hearing will be destroyed forever; . nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in- f flamed condition of the mucous sur- s A nice*.
