This Medicine Recommended by a Doctor When a doctor uses a medicine him8 self besides prescribing It to his patients, he must know that it has merit. This is what Dr. J. H. Wagner, a prominent physician of Skate, Kentucky, has to say about Dr. Hartman's well-known remedy, PE-RU-NA: "I have used PEgiven it to others for catarrh, bloating after eating and other ailments. It has proved a success in all cases with old and young men and women. All speak well of PE-RU-NA. It is the best of all Dr. Wagner, out of the fullness of his own personal experience, for the good of all sick and suffering, recommends a medicine whfch he knows to be good. You may be sure a doctor would not endanger his professional reputation by endorsing PE-RU-NA unless satisfied beyond a doubt of its value. Whether your trouble be a cough or a _ cold, or a more subtle catarrhal effection of the stomach, bowels or other organs, DR J. H. WAGNER S*ve PE-RU-NA a trial. The immediate improvement which you will see will satMfy beyond a doubt that PE-RU-NA is what you need. PE-RU-NA may be purchased anywhere in tablet or liquid form. ?___________________________ ( ^ Ma^ arters lioilers, Engines, Saw Mills, Planers, Gas Engines.

In dis- , ' cussing what might reasonably ho ex-, pec tod of the peanut as a cash crop, in South Carolina, Prof. C. P. Plack-, well, agronomist, has the following to : say: The soils and climate of South Carolina aio well adapted to the growth ,.t" The state has a high aver age yield. According tu the bureau of cio]) estimates of the United States Department of Agriculture, the aver-1 aire yield for the United States has been 08.6 bushels for the years 1912 to 1916 inclusive. For the same period the average yield in South Carolina 1 was 45 bushels. A farmer in South 1 Carolina can expect to make from 40 j to 60 bushels per acre with reasonable : care and attention. The Spanish Pea-! nuts are now (December 1, 1919) sell-1 ing for about $3.00 per bushel. If a farmer makes 15 bushels and sell at $3.00. he has $135.00 per acre, and in addition about one ton of hay worth 1 at least $25.00. This would be about $160 per acre. That is not as much as; a bale of cotton per acre is worth at' present prices, but we have at least three other factors to consider. * * * 1 i*?i.!i; ? ^ 1. it requires jess leruuzer iu grow the crop of peanuts.?especially of nitrogenous feitilizer, which is our most expensive form of fertilizer. 2. It requires less labor to pro- i duce the crop of peanuts. According i ] to the best estimates it requires about I 1 two-thirds to three-fourths as much i j labor as for cotton. j i 3. A man can cultivate a larger, < acreage of peanuts than of cotton. | 1 Prof. Backwell recently asked a 1 number of men who have had cxperi- i ?nce raising peanuts in other states! vhat they thought of peanuts as a I 'ash crop. r>clow are some of their it answers.

"Hanks are more willing to lend money to the poor farmer and tenant win- is willing to grow a good crop of peanuts." "Cash returns from peanuts haven't been so great as from cotton before the weevil infestation, but we have not yet become very efficient in the production of peanuts. At the present time peanuts pay us much better than cotton under weevil conditions." "Farmers here are in much better financial conditions than ever and would continue to plant peanuts if \\ce\iis wnu iiul nen\ .-v iuuuument is being built about 18 miles from here in the shape and in honor of the boll weevil." Since our farmers began growing peanuts and raising hogs they have paid off their mortgages which they made under cotton rule and have bought automobiles, put in lighting plants, water works, painted their homes and dressed up themselves generally." Prof. Backwell has recently written a bulletin on peanuts, which is now being published as Extension Bulletin 45. and is free for the asking. It will be ready for general distribution by January fifteenth. o The Hog Market Situation During the recent years of high prices for pork products and live hogs, the raising of hogs has been very crreatly increased in the South. In fact, some of the Gulf States have inn-eased their shipments during the ast five years from 5.000 to 10,000 logs a year to 10 or 12 times that nany in a single month. Not only has the number of hogs >een greatly increased, but the qualiy has also been greatly improved. But now that prices have gone off rom 7 cents to 10 cents a pound beow the top prices of the early sumner, there is a verv evident lessening I gub 77ie WorW's sf Phonograph Val > NEW DL* 3ERC rough and three, days? amf opportunity judgment and c offer is the end of the three c ressed wish do not want th< every home call for it?and the Amberola th lent to this want '? we wil ola in yourPa>ment l? su" J ^lutely no How can Ambcn fou do not lh,?f fr?

We cannot but feel that this is a mistake. The South has never yet produced anywhere near the hogs she should, and to slacken our efforts in pork production at this time is a serious blunder, it is true that prices have prone off very greatly and hogs fed highpriced corn during the summer are being sold for less than tlie coi n would have brought, i but hogs arc still being sold at a price which will pay a profit on their production if economical and efTcient methods are used. Hogs can be produced at a profit in the South at 10 to 12 cents a pound, regardless of the price of corn, or at least regardless of any such price as com has ever sold for in this country. i The Southern farmer has always increased his hog-raising when prices , were high and discontinued it when i prices went down again. In other j words, he has bought his breeding J . .-tock and gone into the business on a | I high market and sold and gone out of 1 business on a low market, thus mak-! J ing losses absolutely certain. Another j thing which has influenced his hograising has been the price of cotton. When cotton has been high-priced he j has lost interest in everything else.
