"Dear Sirs:
"My husband suffered from rheumatism
and sciatica for about one
year so awfully bad that I just can't

had doctors to tend him but nothing
except the morphine they gave
him eased the awful pains. When
he began breaking out with boils i
and sores he wauld itch so bad he j
would almost scratch to the bone.
I thought sure he would die," writes
Mrs A B Williams.
Her husband, who suffered the
dreadful tortures of rheumatism in
its worst form, writes: "l suffered
from rheumatism for two years and
was confined to my room for three
months. I tried everything. The
suffering was so severe I thought I
was forever done with work. I
tried everything I and my friends
could get, hut it looked like I was
done with business and work for
the balance of my life. It struck
me worse in the small of my back
and in the left leg," continued Mr
Williams. By chance he heard of
ivhilt irnn will Ho for neoDle with
blood and system full of uric acid
and the kidneys not acting right.
He bought a bottle of Acid Iron
Mineral, obtainable at most drug
stores. This is the highly concentrated
natural product of a mineral
deposit of medicinal iron. It is
stronger and being concentrated is
more economical, a few drops in a
glass ot water being a full dose. He
took it regularly a short while and
now read what he says:
"I bought a bottle of A-I-M and
before I finished that I sato I vrka
getting better. I took three bottles
and by the time I had finished them
I was as well as I ever was. I was
relieved of the other troubles, too,
and feel now like I owe a debt of
gratitude to you people who put it
up I am sixty-three years old and
hack at work every day and l>elie\?
that rheumatism is banished comcompletely
and forever from my
system," said Mr Williams. His
wife said:
"1 heard of Acid Iron ^Mineral
and got a bottle for my husband
and by the time he had used one
bottle he was really well. You can
see of what value it is to me. He
is now well and back to work. I
wish I had more space to tell you
more about how thankful I am for
your Acid Iron Mineral," Charlotte

PLANT GARDEN PEAS.
Many Other Vegetables also Should Be
in the Ground Now.
Everyone is urged to join the
Garden club.
It is a patriotic duty as well as a
protective measure for the individual
to put every foot of available planting
ground in vegetables this year.
There have been gratifying results
within the past year from the
cultivation of land not heretofore
used for this purpose, and numbers
are now enjoying the vegetables
they had the foresight to raise and
can during the past year of short
crops. /
From January 15 to March 30 is
the time to plant garden peas in open
ground. The seeds of beets, eggplant,
lettuce and tomato can be
planted in hotbeds during that time;
asparagus and cabbage plants may
be set out in open ground.
It is especially urged to plant
plenty of garden peas, for the surplus
can be dried and put away for
future use. It is a bad plan to depend
upon a later pea crop, for the
good weather is not to be depended
on for a good harvest. So now is
the time to be foresighted and plant
peas and still more peas. The great
advantage in planting peas is that
they can be gathered in April and
May and can then be followed by
some other crop. They should not
be succeeded by a bean crop, as
beans require practically the same
nourishment and would tend to exhaust
the soil and make a poor crop.
Eggplant and tomatoes do well on
the same plot after peas.
Tractors Solve Labor Problem.
In an attempt to destroy the labor
problem in the State of Maryland
and to insure an increase in the
wheat acreage, the State council of
defense has purchased four tractors
to be used in preparing land for
wheat by plowing, harrowing, etc.
Two of fhese tractors are being
used in Kent county and one each
in Cecil and Harford counties. The
routing of the tractors is in the
hands of the county agents. The
C** anrvli'/iofiAno o ro liofnrl art/4
laimcio ayjyi Kanuun mv iidbvu uuu
itineraries for the tractors are made
out accordingly.
Charges for the use of the tractors
are based on the absolute cost
of operation. These charges range
from $2.50 to $3 an acre for plowing
and 50 cents an acre for harrowing
or disking. The results thus
far have proven entirely satisfactory.
Plans are already under way
to continue the use of the tractors
in the preparation of land for spring
crops.
In addition to meeting an emergency,
the use of the tractors has resulted
in the purchase of a number
of them by individual farmers and
groups of farmers.

Indications Are that Even Better Prices ]
Will Be Paid for this Year's Crop. j
Editor County Record:? i
I should think that it would be of 1
interest to your readers and a bene- 1
fit to your farmer patrons who are <
interested in raising tobacco to hear i
how the weed is selling in Kentucky. I
Well, it is selling high. While it is
not quite so high as it opened up in <
December, due mostly to railroad
congestion, the Burley tobacco this
week has averaged on the different
markets $26.50 to $28.50, which, in
comparison with the average for the
last crop, is a considerable advance.
Last year's crop of Burley averaged
for the State $18.56, so you see it is
about $9 per hundred higher than
last year's crop, which average then
was considered very high. It is the
general opinion now that this crop
of Burley will average around $27
and will doubtless give satisfaction
to planters.
With the present outlook, I would
advise planting a good crop of tobacco
in South Carolina, though no
man should fail to grow food crops
for home consumption and some to
spare for Uncle Sam's soldier boy$;
this is highly important and necessary
for the preservation of home
and government. I am sure tobacco
will sell higher than last year, as
our country is supplying the world
with tobacco.
A prosperous New Year to The
County Record.

FAVORS WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
?_
At. Camlin Argues for It and Predids
Its Early Realitation.
Cditor County Record:
I wish to make a few remarks ai
.0 my views on woman suffrage.
?Ve, or at least the most of us,think
- .
t wrong for ladies to vote, out we
,hink it right for them to be school
;eachers, to mould the future of our
ions and daughters, also to teach
;hem the mode of religion that they
jhould live in this world, This is all
right and proper, but when it comes
to the legal side of life we say, "Oh,
no, the ladies shall be silent and politically
dead." Why, if these good
ladies of our State and nation can
iictate the moral, religious and economic
life and also place the rising
generation upon a higher moral
plane, are not these same noble ladies
of our land competent to improve
our political welfare. I venture
to say when woman suffrage it
carried, which it will be within two
*
years, our politics will be placed on
a higher plane.
Without the woman the man can
donothing. This was begun at the
gates of the garden of Eden. Give
the women equal rights at the ballotbox
and make soldiers of them to
carry blessing and sunshine to our
men while suffering on tbe battlefield,
through the workings of the
Red Cross society. This is a Godsend
to man through woman. Jf our women
can make so great a society possible,
why can't they improve our
politics?
Let me say right here to your
readers:can't our politics stand some
purging? Who has made them black?
Did any lady of our country have a (
hand in making it what it is? Will
the ladies make it any worse? If
not. let's trv them and see what will
be the result. I speak for one voter
only. I stand flatfooted in favor of
the rights of the ladies at the ballotbox.
If the ladies can and do succeed
in all other business affairs pertaining
to the wellbeing of man,why
should they not improve our political
life?
But some fellow will say, "Oh,
no,a woman should not have anything
to do with politics; she is not
competent." Right then this numbskull
needs a guardian appointed to
lead him out of the asylum at Columbia.
Give the women their equal
rights and let them fully exercise
these God-given rights as He intended
them to do when He made this
