Gardening weather is here. Folks
who promise to fight the Germans by
raising their own vegetables can not
afford to lose any time in getting
their gardens in shape for planting
the earlier and hardier vegetables.
Some of the balmy days recently
have caused a stirring of the blood
and longing looks toward the garden

Don't Let Catarrh
Avoid Its Dangerous Stage.
? There is a more serious stage of
Catarrh than the annoyance caused
by the stopped-up air passages, and
the hawking and spitting and other
distasteful features.- > , f
The real danger comes from the
tendency of the disease to continue
its course downward until the lungs
become affected, and then dreaded
consumption is on your path. Your
own experience has taugnt you that
the disease cannot, be cured by.

or September?Text
of Act.
Following is the opinion of Attorney
General Peoples in full and text of
the act on the reenrolment and registration
of qualified electors in this
State, which must be done this year
>n July, August and September.
"Answering your letter of the 11th
r#i February, I beg to advise that the
act of 1917, page 47, was passed in
lne pursuance 01 the constitutional
requirement that there he a reenrolment
and registration of the qualified
electors of this State every 10 year.and
makes special provisions for this
registration and enrolment of all
qualified electors then living in the
State who may have been registered
prior to July, 1918.
"The enrolment is to be had during
the months of July, August and September,
1918, and is a special provision
in addition to the general law,
which otherwise fixes the time wh. n
the county board of registration shal'
keep their office open and attend to
the registration of electors.
"The act' of 1917 was not intended j
to interfere with the opening of Or..
books for the registration of persons !
as they may become of age or quali-1
fied to register between now and .
July, 1918, Or after that time. If any
one registers between now and July,
however, he will have to register

FARMERS MAY HOLD ANY QUAN f
TITY OF HOME RAISED ^
FLOUR.
t
Raleigh, Feb. 6 ?Farmers who t
have their own wheat are privileged t
to have it ground in any quantities p
and hold the flour made from it. The
piovision of the Food Control law relating
to boarding does not apply 'o -j
producers. There seems to he a mis- }
impression in the minds of many (
farmers on this point and some un- \
easiness has been expressed by farmers
lest their wheat bo damaged by
weevils before they are able to use i
it. i
Farmers who have wheat ground }
into flour may not only hold as much t
of this flour as they need for their i
own consumption but arc privilege*! t
also to sell it to other consumers. In ;
selling flour, however, they assum- i
the status of a retailor and they mu:< i
sell only in combination with cereal i
substitutes or to consumers who sign
a certificate stating that they have
produced and are using corn meal or
other cereal substitute at the same I
tatio as thy use flour. Farmers selling
flour are also limited as to the
amounts they may sell to consumers.

i
Dizziness is never a disease of itiii.
t ?
?eu?u s oniy a sympiom or somor
leeper-scated trouble. Much dizzi- t
less is caused by disordered kidneys
ailing to filter all the poisons from he
blood. These poisons attack the
lerves and dizziness results. If you 1
ire subject to dizziness, there is 1
jood reason to suspeit your'?kidneys 1
ind if you suffer backache, head- ]
iche, and irregularity of the kidney ,
iecretions, you have further proof,
dany Conway people have learned
he value of Down's Kidney Pills in
ust such cases. Read this Conway t
esident's statement: i
J. G. Rhodes, carpenter, Conway, 1
?ays: "I had pains in my back and (
oins. I was so sore and lame that I
lidn't rest well at night and in the
norning could hardly get about. I *
lad headaches and spells of dizziness 1
ind the kidney secretions were irreg- i

the central powers and the Bolshevik 1
government of Russia, fighting continues
at various points along the
Eastern front. That Germany con- I
aiders the convention she towed limine
and Trotzky to sign as a "scrap
i>f paper" is evidenced hv the announcement
that the Teutons have
reached Jamburg, a town 08 miles
from Petrograd.
The report of the subsequent partial
retirements of the Germans does
not lend encouragement to the belief
that further invasion of Russia has
been abandoned.
The text of the peace treaty signed
by Roumania serves, too, to show
that the central powers are loath to
forego any conquests they may make
ir; Russia. One of the clauses of the
Roumanian treaty bound that country
to assist in the transport of Teutonic
forces through Moldavia and Bessara
via on their way to Odessa, the "gran
ary of Russia."
