No Worms In a Healthy Child All children troubled with worms have an ur, healthy color, which indicates poor blood, and as a rule, there is more or less stomach disturbance. GROVE'S TASTELESS chill TONIC given regularly for two or three weeks will enrich the blood, iim prove the digestion, and act as a General Strength ening Tonic to the whole system.

The sweet potato warehouse being erected in iaiurens is nearing com plotion and wIlI be ready for the stor 2 of n1otatoes at an early (late, accord tug to a letter being malied to a large numbiletr of fariimers by Farm Demon strator 1). .l. .loore. Tihe warehouse Is located near tle freight depot and is said to be IIe secontd largest inl the state. 'it i. being built -by capi ,tal subscribed by local people anid is intended for ile benelit of the 'farm ers of the county. According to tihe planus for storing the potatoes, a notice will be giveli when potatoes sliould be gathered and a date selected when the crop may be brought in so that the entire crop may be stored at one time to avoid injury to the first potatoes stored. The letter of .Mr. Aloore was as fol lows: The sweet potato storage house at Laurens Is nearing completion and will be ready for this crop of sweet potatoes. The next time you are in town go down to the old livestock pen near the freight depot and see how this sweet potato house is being built. Sweet potatoes will be cured and held in storage in the warehouse this winter for 20c a bushel or 20 per cent of the potatoes stored. When you stop to thinkt that an average of from 50 (o 100 per cent of sweet potatoes rot when stored in banks, whereas an av erage of about 2 per cent rot in these storage houses, you will see that these charges are very reasonable. You are urged to store your crop of potatoes in this warehouse this fall. There is storage space for 7,500 bush els, which is ample for our present needs. Potatoes may be stored in crates, which -will be furnished by the warehouse company at a nominal cost, or in bins, Iach man's potatoes wili be labeled and kept separate. it will be to your advantage to store your po tatoes whether you plan to market them in the spring when prices are highest or use them for your own ta ble or for seed. If you lplan to market your potatoes, it is especially advised that you use bushel crates. The mar het price of sweet potatoes properly sorted and crated Is enough higher than for potatoes In bulk to more than pay the cost of tlhe crate.
