What docs it do?
It causes the oil glands
in the skin tcJ tcoir.e more
active, making the hair soft
and glossy, precisely as
nature intended.
It cleanses the scalp from
dandruff and thus removes
one of the great causes of
baldness.
It makes a better circu
lation in the scalp and stops
the hair from coming out.
It Prevents aad it
cures Baldness
Ayer’s Hair Vigor will
surely make hair grow on
bald heads, provided only
there is any life remain
ing in the hair bulbs.
It restores color to gray
or white hair. It does not
do this in a moment, as
will a hair dye; but in a
short time the gray color
of age gradually disap
pears and the darker color
of youth takes its place.

THE INDEPENDENT FARMER.
No Ollier anus Huh I.«-hh Kentrlction l>y
Luw.
(Correspondence of TTie Ledger.*
Maynahi*, H. C., Aug. 4.—Mr. Edi
tor:—Please allow me space in your
valuable paper ,tu say a few words
about fanning and things in general.
I have always been a close observer,
and I want to say right here that I
have been doing a right smart ob
serving for the past few years, and
I have learned several facts, not only
in regard to farming, but in regard
to otiier professions.
Notwithstanding an occasional
drought or an occasional access of
rain, the farmers are the most indo-
pondant elass of people in the world,
or at least should he. The farmers
arc one, and (lie only class that can
produce their own living at home.
And how that they can stand urotftid
and grumble about the merchant and
money lender, is a tiling beyond my
comprehension.
H there is any favored class in
this country, it certainly is the
farmer. (I am not speaking of farm
labor, 1 am speaking of those who
own the land.) Tho laws of this
8tate give them almost unlimited
privileges in regard to the rental of
th<-ir lands, while the money lender
is restricted to 8 per cent, in fact, if
1 am not mistaken, there is not
another profession in this State but
what is restricted by law u« its
foes and salary, at least to some ex
tent either directly or indirectly, ex
cept the farmer. And he is allowed
to charge any per cent, lie may
choose for the rent of his land, and
to sell his produce at any place or at
any price he chooses, and no one has
the right to interfere with him, either
us to the price or place at which he
chooses to sell. Now in ail serious-
mss, 1 think it is very “cheeky” to
say the least of it, on the part of the
farmer, to rent his land at from 50
to 100 per cent, of the value of it,
and then grumble at a man for lend
ing his money at 8 per cent.
Well, my brol her/urmers, it is sim
ply a matter of your own choice
whether you sell your cotton at five
cents per pound or not. You have a
perfect right to usk 10 cents per
pound for it, and not only to ask it
hut you could get it. But, tho first
thing for you to do to enable you
to get 10 cents for your cotton is to
create a greater demand for your
cotton. Of course farmers are going
to raise cotton so long as it pays
better than it does to raise other
crops, regardless of the price of cot
ton. Brother, if it pays you better
to raise something else, why then
raise something else, that is exactly
the way to increase tho demand for
cotton.
Now, I have discovered, during my
observation, that there ere not a
great many farmers win* deserve suc
cess, but what have been successful.
But, the man,.be,hejfarmer,merchant,
lawyer, banker or any other profes
sion, who depends for his success
entirely upon the profits derived off
other people’s labor, does not deserve,
neither is he apt to attain to success.
But .the farmer who takes hold of
his farm work with his own hands,
and puts in twelve months work in
the year, deserves, and is sure, to be
successful. Not only so with farmers,
but it is so with all other profes
sions. Cherokee has a great
many farmers, among whom are J.
W. 1’ettit, L. M. Blanton, J. C.
Blanton, 1). C. Fainter, J. C, Fainter,
J. V. Whelchel, J. T. Whelchol and
“Dock” Cooper and many others we
glit name, all of whom have been
successful, and yi t we hear them
complaining of hard times, a.id of
tho rate of eight per cent, for money
which, to my mind, substantiates
the old adage, "the more a man has,
tho more . < wants.” Now, the
above das of ftumers have a per
fect right to resent, with indigna
tion, the imputation that they do
not put in tlieir time ut work. But,
there is a class of farmers, several of
whom wo have In mind now, who do
i ot do an honest days worlc during
u vliole year, hiring all their work
do o, and yet wo hear them com-
pla. dng because they are not suc
cess; L And yet another class, who
work ii d> four to six months in the
year, and <nd around and grumble
the balance of tho year because they
are not as prosperous us some other
people are.
You might take the most substan-
t'iai merchant in tho 8tute, and let
him depend upon ids clerks doing all
of Ids work for him, and it would not
be six months until lie would he in
the hands of a receiver, or let him
donate only six months in tho year
to Ids business, and the result would
be about tiie same, or you might take
the most suscessful lawyer in tho
state, and let him depend on his
clerks doing Ids work, and it would
bo hut a short while until he would
not have a client. He would soon he
entirely out of the business. Now,
brother tanner, tiie best advice that
I can give now, is to take the advice
of “The Farmers Friend,” of Lancus-
ter, and to profit hy tho evumplo of
other professions which I am of tho
opinion will be of far more benefit to
3 ou than fanner’s organizations could
possibly be. Octamts.
A Trie to tlaffney.
[Oustouiu Ua/.uttc.l
The editor ran down to Gaffney last i
Thursday afternoon to get a drink of
sulphur water from her deep well and
to ask some questions about her wa
terworks and things. Gaffney is Ja
good town—6,000 population tiny j
say—and is the county seat of the new ;
county of Cherokee. Including tiie!
waterworks plant, there is nearl}’ i
*100,000 worth of building now going ;
on. ’The Baptists and Met liodists are 1
each building u $10,000 church. !
Limestone college is at work on a |
$20 000 addition, a $20 OHO oil mill is
coming and a $0,000 jail is nearing!
completion. It is the Gastonia of
tliat section, and if Gastonia had tiie
courthouse and a few other tilings we
might compliment her as tiie Gaffney
of this section.
But as to waterworks. Gaffney's
first steps in that direction were taken
a few years ago when she established
her public graded schools. Seversl
months ago the town voted $18,000
worth of bonds for a partial system of
waterworks—no sewerage. A deep
well was sunk ut a cost of $2,800. It
is sulphur water, runs out at tiie top
in a small stream, smells and tastes
of mineral, and it is so light and
limpid that one may drink it copiously
and pack it down like cotton in a
hamper basket with beneficial rutin r
than harmful results. Before the city
received tiie job tiie fiow was tested by
a pump which ixtended 80 feet in the
well. For labours it was run without
a moment’s intermission at a rate of
from 70 to 90 gallons a minute. This
test did not. “phase” the. supply, and
in a few minutes—almost before the
machinery could be disconnected—
the water was again running over at
tiie top.
Along the main st rents and on some
of tiie principal cross streets were
long snaky lines of black 8-inch pipe.
Some of the ditches were ready, with
work rushing on to completion. But
having got thus for, the con
struction committee found funds get
ting ver ylow, and a petition was in
circulation asking tho city council to
order an election for $10,000 worth of
bonds additional to supplement tiie
insufficient appropriation for water
works and to improve the electric
light plant. These sums do not con
template sewerage and only a system
of waterworks applying to a few prin
cipal streets.
The town has a live, newsy and
well supuorted semi-weekly paper in
Tl ie Ledger, and we record here our
gratitude to The Ledger folks for
numberless courtesies to au unher
alded and unseasonable visitor.

Mr. Lem Wise, a progressive farrror
of No. § township, has nn experience
in growing whe.it and improving land
which is worth recording. Three
years ago ho sowed six and ono-hulf
acres of ordinary land in wheat, fol
lowing tiie wheat with peas. He cut
the peas, which were sown broadcast.
Ho kept this up three years. The
first year he made ?>0 liualiols of
wheat; the next. 511 bushels; the
next (this year), between 75 and 80
bushels. He did not use any fertili
zers—not even cot Ion seed. The
sowing of the peas broadcast was all
that he did to increase the produc
tiveness of his land. Ho kept no
account of his pea-vine hay the first
two years, but tiie iast year his hay
brought him over $75. it seems to
us that this experience should put
farmers to thinking.

I u this country is dyspepsia. Froba-
biy more than three-fourths of the
people suffer from it in some of its
many forms. Many have dyspepsia
and don’t know it, because they have
the painless kind. Such a[e always
half sick and ascribe their ailment to
any cause but the (rue one. Where
dyspepsia is known, or suspeehd,
Tyner’s Dyspepsia Remedy ought to
be used. It is a wonderful medicine,
very pleasant to take, and not only
corrects digestion in a few minutes,
but cures the worst eases of dyspep
sia. For sale by all druggist.
