Roup a Fall Poultry Trouble | CIcmson College, Nov. 9?One of ihe most common diseases of the frrm poultry flock during the autmn is roup, say poultry specialists of t!i> United St:.t"> Department of Agriculture. Th.s disease is frequently found in damp poorly ventilated houses and is most ofte'n contracted 1 * ' 1 /lA^'olnnn/l Dy Dims ;n:u uiv jiuwii> *nd of low vitality. Fowls of this type arc the means of spreading it through the flock. Obviously prevention should consist of eliminating the weaklings from the flock and providing a house that will be dry and free from drafts, but well ventilated. An additional prevention against this disease is the following: Add as much potassium permanganate as will remain on the surface of a dime to each gallon of drinking water and keep before the fowls. This act* as an antiseptic and will help .o keep the birds in good condition. An attempt to cure the individual of roup is not advisable, for, although in the majcritv of cases, there may be an appav-1 ent cure, the danger of reinfection is great, and frequently such birds cause the disease to spread throughout the flock. The safest policy is immediately to remove such birds from tin' flock and kill them as soon as they show the first symptoms, recognized a watery discharge from the nostrils or eyes. o How to Avoid Contagious Diseases I ~ Avoid sitting down in the sick room as much as possible. Especially avoid sitting on the bed. Do not even lean against the bed, walls or furniture. Wash the hands with antiseptic soap after each contact with the patient. Exercise regularly, if possible, in the open air. Nurses should wear washable dresses, which should be changed frequently. A washable cap should cover the hair. Keep so far from a sick person that his breath will not re^ch you directly. Above all, do not take his breath into your own lungs, as in kissing or whispering. Do not put to your lips any food, drink, dish or utensil that the patient has touched, or that has been in the sick room. Do not go into the sick room with an empty stomach. Do not eat or drink in the sick room. * Wear no clothing that the patient has worn just before, during or just after his sickness. {THE F IGRt Ever since th made it a rule to to every person w We have trit I real help to the affairs, thereby m Bank a real pleasi We Pay 5 per cent ? YourAccouj I J. F. HASELDEN, I io-28-tf President Keep the hands free from all discharges from the sick. If the hands are accidently contaminated, wash them at once with an antiseptic soap. If the hands ar? scratched or cut. put court plaster over the wounds. Never touch the sick with sore or scratched hands.

He sure to destroy all mosquitoes.?The Progressive Farmer. o Should Help Hold Cotton Southern bankers, merchants anil manufacturers should throw themselves into the fight for better cotton prices, and for adequate credits to enable the Southern farmers to hold cotton until the demand forces the price up to a fair figure. Nobody realizes more keenly than the merchant that, when farmers are without money, his goods remain on the shelves while he tries to hold otT his creditors. Nobody realizes more keenly than a banker that a broke cotton farmer is a pooi- customer for his bank. If the cotton growing South suffers the losses it will be forced to stand if this crop of cotton has to be scld at anything like present prices, everybody from the second-hand furniture dealer on the side street to the automobile manufacturers in Detroit ... - , , o WW will leei Keeniy me cncua v?i .?.. ?...... will it profit Southern business when cotton soars to high prices in the spring, if it is in the hands of speculators in New England? The buying power of the South will not be increased one whit, unless we keep cotton here. Southern business msn can profit, themselves if they will advise and urge their farmer-customers to hold their cotton and back this advice up by helping them finance it at reasonable rates. In this case the selfish view is also the broad view. A good example has been set by II. R Comer, of Alabama, who not only uvge5 farmers to hold cotton, but has put up $200,000 to enable them to hold it. The small town, country and city bankers should make it their business now 10 see that adequate money is available in every community to finarce the holding of all the cotton there.?The Progressive Fanner. o Just received, a carload of Re-d Rust Proof Seed Oats.

P. BROWN, V-President HELPED HER LILE OTHERSTOLD HER Spartanburg Woman Makes Highly Interesting Statement. FELT LIKE BRICKS Says She Feels Fine Now and "Sure Can Praise Tanlac For Its Aid "It is*the best medicine I ever took for stomach trouble, nervousness and palpitation of the heart. I sure can praise and recommend it," declared Mrs. H. E. Lawter, of 116 Williams St., Spartanburg, in a statement she gave in endorsement of Tai.lac, "The National Tonic." "I suffered from very bad cases of indigestion, nervousness and palpitation of the hea:.*t," continued Mrs. Lawter. "I could hardly sleep, and would just roll and tumble for hours, and my nerves were so badly disturbed that .1 was kept miserable almost all the time. I could cat scarcely anything. What 1 did eat felt like bricks in my stomach and I had a kind of choking in richest after meals. My heart flutte' ed a .great deal. and this. 1 thirk was partly caused by the great quantity of gas that formed on my stom ach. "Frnally I decided to try Tanlac, as it had helped so many others who had troubles somewhat like mine and now I am not bothered with stomach troubles, thanks to Tanlac. I feel a great deal better in every way too. My nerves are much stronger and steadier, and I used to get so nervous that I jumped when anyone spoke to me. I'm certainly not that way now, as Tanlac has relieved those nervous troubles and I have not been bothered with palpitation since I took the first botle of Tanlac. "I feel fine now in many ways and I sure can praise Tanlac and I give it credit for the change in my condition. I am fifty-nine years old, and it takes a powerfully good medicine to help anyone as old as I am as much as Tanlac helped me."
