ONE LONE PRIVATE
There arc patriots and patriots. It
is said that the Governor of Georgia
is flooded with offers of service to the
State in the case of war. But out of
the large number of patriots willing
to fight for their country there is
only one private. The others all want
commissions from licnfcnnni In hriir.
adier-general.
STATES GOING DRY
The expression "bone dry" as applied
to prohibition is becoming quite
common in the discussion of that subject.
Somehow it seems to suggest
an old nursery rhyme:
"Old Mother Hubbard went to the
cupboard
To get her poor doggie a bone.
When she got there, the cupboard
was bare.
And so the poor doggie had none."
Twenty-five States now have State
prohibition and Utah and Florida will
probably soon make the twentyseventh.
With Congress working on the
subject it does look very much like
bone dry United States. And then
mayhap, Old Mother Ilubbard, if she
is the wife of a red-nosed rummie,
may be able to replenish that lonf
emptied cupboard.
OUR BIG DEBATING SOCIETY.
It is a remarkable condition of national
legislation that many hours are
wasted in Congress upon the discussion
of points of order. This was the
case notably February 16. Although
I the time of the short session of Coni
gress was rapidly passing away, with
.. 1 .1 1 1-1*
1 <i ia? |;u aiuuuiil in llUt'UUU
to be enacted, hour after hour was
spent upon the technical matter of a
point of order. Even in the solemn
old Senate, supposed to be the fountain-head
of wisdom, hours were
spent in this way. When a Senator
disagreed with the decision of the
chair but said he would not make the
point of order, Vice-President Mar
shall said very promptly, "I would b<
glad if the Senator would do so."
The other House of Congress i
guilty of the same fault and on som
occasions acts like a school boys' de
bating society, arguing apparently fo
the sake of arguing and always agree
ing to disagree.
When the Hon. W. F. Stevenso
shall take his place in this body w
: believe he will set an example for th
1 members of the lower house. He wiJ
i discuss matters of importance to th
| Nation and to South Carolina and b
silent as to the matter of tweedledun
and tweed ledee.
SOME GOOD WORK
In a recent discussion of Congres
upon the subject of agricultural ap
pripriations Senator Smith of Soutl
Carolina, got in some good work. H
defended the free seed distribution
He said "There are thousands am
thousands of small families who rc
ceive these seed from the governmen
and they are a real benefit." He ex
plained that there were people witl
lew opportunities who were greatl;
nelped by the department selectini
and sending them packages of gardei
seed.
Senator Smith also introduced a:
amendment appropriating money t
develope a method for making can
syrup that would not ferment or crys
talize. It was shown that when svru
that is made in large quantities ii
the South is shipped it sours and turn
to sugar, thus spoiling the sale am
causing loss to the syrup makers.
Senator Smith deserves the thank
of farmers for the interest he take
in their welfare.
THE CANTALOUPE.
The importance of the cantaloup
as a truck crop is not generally ree
ognized. It is one of the importan
crops grown, both commercially am
for home use, the reason for its pop
ularity being the ease with which it i
handled, the ease of production am
the demand for the fruit itself botl
in the home and at distant markets.
While cantaloupes will grow 01
nearly all types of soil, a well-drain
ed, sandy or sandy-loamy soil witl
a clay subsoil is ideal. Earliness is i
fundamental essential to success, an<
to get an early crop the soil must b<
quick, warm and fertile.
The soils generally used for com
mercial production of cantaloupes ar
not as a rule of sufficient rich
ness to produce large crops of frui
without the addition of some form o
manure and commercial fertilizer
for the sourse of humus and plan
food. The cantaloupe requires ai
abundance of vegetable matter am
plant food. The vines do best onl;
when they have a steady and continu
ous growth. In no way must thi
growth be checked or the plant allow
ed to become stunted.
The market demands and will paj

statement follows:
"I suffered from a completephysical

of a long drawn out spell of malaria.
I was very weak?so weak that I was

I did not try to do any of my housework

"Tanlac did me a great deal more
good than all the other medicines I
took put together, and I certainly
did take a lot of medicine before I
took Tanlac. The Tanlac gave me a
good appetite almost from the start
and soon I began to improve right
along in health and strength, and now
I am able to do my housework and my
ironing and I am strong and hearty.
I give Tanlac all the credit for getme
out of bed and on my feet again,
and no one can fully understand how
much Tanlac did for me unless they
had seen me before I took it, and I
had been almost an invalid for two
years before I took Tanlac and then I
only had to take six bottles to get my
strength back.
"I certainly can give Tanlac the
highest praise, because it changed me
from an almost bed-ridden invalid to
a strong, happy and hearty woman."

It Should Have Been Done.
Two Irishmen entered a restaurant
and ordered dinners. They asked the
waitress the price of everything she
brought in. Some tobasco sauce, she
informed them, was free. Mike took
a large spoonful, bringing tears to his
eyes.
"What are you crying for?" says
Pat.
"Oh," says Mike, "it's just twelve
months to-day since they hung me
poor ould father."
Shortly afterward Pat took a
spoonful of tobacco, which produced
the same effect as on Mike.
"And what are you crying for,
Pat?" asked Mike.
"Oh," replied Pat, "I'm crying because
they didn't hang you along wid
your father."

$45,000 IN ONE DAY.
From a last year's Laurinburg Exchange
:
The cantaloupe season is now at
its height and Laurinburg and Scotland
county are fully appreciative of
the good results which the season
brings. Monday was perhaps a record
breaker as far as volume of
shipments is concerned. We have J
been unable to get accurate figures, 4
but conservative estimates place tho
number of cars loaded during the day
and up to 12 o'clock at night at about
150 or more. At $300 a car this
would represent a total income of
$45,000 for the day.
LIFT YOUR CORNS
OFF WITH FINGERS
Telia how to loosen a tender corn or
callus so it lifts out without
pain.
A
You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once a week invited an awlul ?
death from locwjaw or blood poison
are now told by a Cincinnati authorityto
use a drug called freezone,
which the moment a few drops are applied
to any corn or callus the soreness
is relieved and soon the entire
corn or callus, root and all, lifts off
with the fingers. 1
Freezone dries the moment is is applied,
and simply shrivels the corn or
callus without inflaming or even irri- |
tating the surrounding tissue or skin. J
A small bottle of freezone will cost
very little at any of the drug stores,
but will positively rid one's feet of
every hard or soft com or hardened
callus. If your druggist hasn't any
freezone he can get it at any wholesale
drug house for you. 2-Adv,
