1? ETHEL'S RALLY DAY,
Number or S|>cukci> on Agricultural
Subjects Heard willi Interest.
Wednesday, March 11, was a big
rally day at Bethel School. There
WMe a great many visitors present
atul a large attendance iron, the com?
munity to hear Messrs. J. Frank Wil-'
llama, Musi Mary Lemmon, Mr. Elliott,
Mr. I.. 1,. Baker and Mr. W. W.
Lotlg give Very interesting and help?
ful talks on agricultural subjects.
Mr. Elliott spoke of the importance
of rotation of crops, lie showed that
by planting and turning oats and
\ctch on lands for two consecutive
y?j.rs. a crop of corn or cotton could1
bf grown on the land the third year)
with very little commercial fertiliz?
er. He showed the value of inocu?
lation of plants by germs, illustrating
his talk by exhibiting two plants, the
one green and luxuriant looking
which had been inoculated and the
other without the signs of vitality.
He urged farmers to raise feed for
their own stock, saying that people
In adjoining counties had secured hay
from Canada. He said that the "cost
of high living" should not be mixed
with the "high cost of living." Every
farmer should keep a set of books,
which would show what was made
or lost on every crop and every Held
on the farm. This would enablo the
farmer to correct the defects in the
land on which he was losing.
Miss Lemmon spoke of her toma?
to club work. She told how the toma?
to club work could bo Coordinated
with tiie school work. In keeping ac?
count of the tomato work, the pupil
gained an idea of bookkeeping. In
measuring off land, she learns meas
uration. In iinding out how tomatoes
benefit one s heulth, she learns some?
thing of hygiene, liy writing about]
the work, the girl learns the proper|
use of English. Tomato culture, it
was seen, would help a girl in muny
...i>s. Girls who were formerly
hameS) of work in the garden were
now proud to be seen using a hoe.
Mr. I* L. Baker, district demon?
stration agent, told how root knot
could bo prevented by the proper ro- i
tution of crops, the Iron pea being I
used to advantage in eradicating the j
disease. This disease was often mis?
taken for blight, he said. The uddrcss^
uf farmers selling wilt-resisting cot
Lofl seed could ')* obtained from Prof
Clernson College.
. W. Long, the head of the
tension work in this Stut*-.
. tine talk showing how tr
larrn and school work should be co?
ordinated. Only a lew boys, com-;
parati vely spe.'king, could go to
lemson' College to learn scientific'
t rating, so a r.r n ulture must be
taught la the public schools. In]
Speaking of ClemeOQ, Mr. Long stat?
ed that it was the best agricultural
college in the South.
Next year he is going to have three
seres near Beikel, where many of'
those points taught in books on farm?
ing, will be put into practice. This
will be bethel's experimental farm. (
Mr. Long wants the pupils in the
public schools to know about animal
husbandry and he hopes to be able to
do more next year in teaching them
this subject. To koep the boys on
the f irm. Mr. Long stated that they
must be given some part in the farm
und its proflta He complimented the
school on having the proper com?
munity spirit.
The meeting was opened with a
prayer ??>? the Rar, William Hayna?
worth. The ladles of 'the Bethel
ClVtC League served dinner on the
grounds, the dinner being sold for the
benefit Of the school, except to the

HUSBAND RESCUED
DESPAIRING WIFE
Alter Four Years of Discouraging
Conditions, Mrs. Bollock Gave
Up in Despair. Husband
Carte to Rescue.
Catron, Ky.?In an interesting letter
from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bollock
writes as follows: "1 suffered for four
years, with womanly troubles, and during
this time, 1 could only sit up for a little
while, and could not walk anywhere at
all. At times, I would have severe pains
in my left side;
The doctor was called in, and his treat?
ment relieved me for a while, but I was
soon confined to my bed again. After
that, nothing seemed to do mc any good.
1 had gotten so weak I could not stand,
and I gav e up in despair.
At last, my husband got me a bottle of
Cardui, the woman's tonic, and I com?
menced taking it. From the very first
dose, I could tell it was helping me. I
can now walk two miles without ill
tiring me, and am doing all my work.1'
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don't give up in despair. Try
Cardui, the woman's tonic. It has helped
more than a million woman, in its 91
years of continuous success, and should
surely help you, too. Your druggist hss
sold Cardui for years. He knows
it will do. Ask him. He will
mend it. Begin taking Cardui today.
