From 40 to 50 Woman’s Critical Period.
Such warning symptoms as sense of suffocation, hot
flashes,^severe headaches, melancholia, dread of impending
evil, palpitation of the heart, irregularity, constipation and
dizziness are promptly treated by intelligent women who
are approaching the period of life.
This is the most critical period of woman’s life and she
who neglects the care of her health at this time invites in
curable disease and pain. Why not be guided by the ex
perience of others and take Lyciia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound? It is an indisputable fact that this grand old
remedy has helped thousands of women to pass through
this trying period with comfort and safety. Thousands ot
genuine and honest testimonials support this fact.
From Mrs. IIEXRY IIKAVIL1X, Cadiz, Ohio.

safely through the Change of Life when I was in had health. I had

Although extermination is impossi

fight. Once here he will remain a
perpetual problem, and for the cot
ton grower it will be simply a ques
tion of the best methods of keeping the
pest effectively in check.
Energetic enforcement of Georgia’s
quarantine regulations against tiie boll
weevil by the department is the one
thing that has kept the pest out of
the state so long. The legislature,
which has Just adjourned gave the
sum of $15,000 for the continuation of
the tight against the weevil. The
money is being spent largely in edu
cating tiie farmers as to what to do to
minimise the effect of the weevil when
it comes.
"It is mir plan to organize addi
tional cotton breeding clubs during
the winter and spring in South Geor
gia counties," said Mr. Worsham. "We
want to render the greatest service
to the greatest possible number with .
the appropriation which has been j
made for this work." I

round the! missioned Price now declares that if it
should appear suddenly in the cotton
fields of Georgia tomorrow, it would
throw the state into a panic. As a val
uable method of fighting the weevil
which attacks only cotton. Mr. Price
urges diversification of crops and the
raising of more meat, forage and food
stuffs at home.
Entomologist Worsham says the
