FLOUR MILLS ARE SUCCESSFUL.
Sumtcr Roller Mills Have Successful
Year and Will Add to Plant.
The Sumter Roller Mills have had
a most successful season and will add
to their plant for another season, so
that they can handle conveniently the
larger amount Of wheat which is ex?
pected another year. The addition of
a Midget Marvel mill with capacity
of seventy-five barrels a day will in?
crease the total capacity to one hun?
dred and fifty barrels every twenty
four hours.
The newly Installed self-rising flour
plant Is now In operation, and this new
system with the changes to be made
before another season will make the
plant one of the best of Its kind in
the State. The mill occupies a con?
venient site, has a good building and
machinery and has made good in
every way. It has received wheat
from five or six counties for grinding
and another year will do even a larg?
er business. Wheat seed has been
sold to farmers in adjoining counties
at cost in order to encourage and in?
crease production of this very valu?
able and necessary crop. Mr. J. W.
McDonald Is superintendent of the
mill.

Many children at an early age
becornV constipated, 4*nd 'ffeVieentfy
serious consequences result. Not
being able to realize -bis own con?
dition, a child's bowels should be
constantly witched, and a gentle
laxative given when necessary.
Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets arc
especially well adapted to women
and children. The Sisters of
Christian Charity, 531 Charles St.,
Luzerne, Pa., who attend many
cases of sickness say of them:
"Some time ago we beg?n using Pr.
Macs' Laxative Tablets and find that
We like them very much. T^iclr action
Is excellent and we are grateful for
having been mn,A acquainted with
them. Wo have ad 'good results in
every case and the Sisters are very .1
?auch pleased."
The forrr. and flavor of any medi?
cine is very important, r.o matter
who is to take iL The taste and
appearance are especially important
when children arc concerned. All
parents know how hard it is to give
the average child "medictne," -ev^il
though the taste is partially dis?
guised. In using Dr. Miles' Lax?
ative Tahlots, however, this diffi?
culty, is overcome. The uhape of
the tablets, their appearance and
eatidy-like taste at once appeal 'to
any Child, with the result that they
are token without objection.

will make twentyvtWo bales of cotton
on ?twenty-five acres o*f land this year,
which Is a pretty good yield, consid
ering that the station was hit Just as
hard by the flood as any other spot
of this beloved soil. Mr. CUrrlh says
that he attributes his success to a ro?
tation of crops and having plenty Of ?
I humus in the soil. Of course, drain
age and cultivation had no little part
to play in the production, but ndt 'fer
tiliztng, or the spending of money dn
the crop. His cotton, like everybody's
else, was out to the root by the floou,
{?but it came out, and he gave it good
attention- and the land was prepared
