Mike McTIgue, late of Cork,
Ireland and Columbus, Ua.. has
signed to meet Gene Tunney, hold,
er of the Amerlcun Light-heavy-
weight title at Madison Square
Garden on December 10.
McTIgue Is well known In this
state, as he wai the gentleman
who came to Georgia with his man
ager Jot Jacobs and his pal Har
ry- Krtlc. the referee, to fight
Youuk Htrlbllng. Everyone knowr
how McTIgue showed great brav
cry by entrring the ring, at the
point of pistols In the hands of
those wild barbarians that roam
the main streets of Columbus—at-
ter having tried his best to Jump
the fight.
McTIgue got whipped in that
fight, but was saved by the hanc*
of providence and the help oi
Referee Ertle.
And now McTIgueV. hand la, so
much better that he Is going to
fight Tunney. That hand has cer
tainly healed up quickly consider-
Ing the many things that were the
matter with It In Columbus.
Tunney, the American title hold
er, 1 Is a good fighter. He Is a lit
tle better than that, though there
jre several men we could nam*
who would take his measure. How
ever. Mike le going to have his
hands full with Tunney.
McTIgue Is also a good fighter
In our opinion he la something of
a “checso" champion, a la Johnny
Wilson, but ho la above the aver-
age fighter.
He won his title from Blkl. th^
Kenngcleae and he couldn't do it
again In fifty- yearr, 81 ki won the
title from Georges Cerpentier, am’
we don’t believe he could do It
ngalp.
If McTIgue gave Carpentier s
chance at the title, he would not
laat long enough for the gat<
keepers to take up the laat few
tickets.
Carpentier can also whip Gene
Tunney. In fact we sincerely be
lieve that In nil the world, at th-
present time, there are not but twr
"above th^ average" ftghteri. leav
ing out the United States; and the)
are Caipsntler of France and Fir-
po of ths Argentine.
The McTIgue-iTunney fight
ought to be a good one, with the
odds on Tunney to win—thaJ l«

the seed farm grew 36 bushel* of

is easy to make 25 bushels of this
rye per acre against from 8 to 12
bushels of the common variety.
And it takes no more money or
labor to grow these pediflftfd and
highly improved seed than the

such an interest in the farmer

has just issued a circular for dis

our section urging upon them the
importance of producing more

directing their attention, td the
value of alfalfa.
The circularMays by increasing
the acreage in alfalfa our people
will save the money sent out of
the state for hay and some por
tions of other feed stuffs, and
uko that the raising of cattle and
hogs might be profitably increas
ed to the same end. Every farm
er should have at least one acre of
alfalfa for each work animal. It

drained soils. The beginning of
tne last week in September to the
ond of October has been found
the best time to sow alfalfa seed
in this sectfon. Good results have
been obtained by sowing alfalfa

has been harvested. The soil for

had three of hfe tenants to plant
four acres of cotton each, and In
stead of poison he used to destroy

You can also use 100 pounds of

Mr. Cofer says we can grow
these pedigreed seed in this sec
tion as well- as anywhere in the
south, and we ought to organize a
company and start the work. The
\yintervillc Pure Seed Associa
tion has started out on the right
line, but to make a success of the
business a regular seed farm for
their production should be estab
lished and controlled by (expert
and scientific farmers. With the
State Agricultural College and its
trained faculty at our doors there
iis no place in the sout* better

The Hulme Gram not only

acre, when well rooted, will fur

ten head of cattle during the
year.

you.—and a losy colon takes ^way.
But. back to our question;—What
Is ‘your colon; whfere Is your colon;
why Is your colon? Listen attentive
ly for only a minute and you may
learn something that may add twen
ty years to your lift.
Your colon I* the last five feet of
yeur digestive canal. It is your sew.
erage system; your garbage can, so
to speak. Keep It clean and you are
well and iiappy; let It stagnate and It
will distill the poisons of decay, fer
mentation (gas) and putrefaction Into
your blood, poleonlng your brain and
nerves so that you are restless, ir
ritable and 'blue; poisoning your
heart ao that you are weak, listless
and )azy; poisoning your lungs so
that your breath la heavy or foul;
poisoning your stomach and digestive
organs so that you are bloated, belch
ing and uncomfortable with gas pains;
poisoning your blood so that your
skin looks yellow, sallow and un.
healthy; poisoning every part and or
gan of your body, through your
blood, making you look and feel old
and ugly long before your time; mak
ing your Joints-and your back stiff
and rheumatic, your eyes dull .and
your brain slugglsk.
By ths perfect law of NMaw,
colon should empty Itself three times
a day,—within an hour after eat
ing. Does your colon work that well?
If not, it has lost Its tone. What do
we mean by tone? Your colon Is a
hollow muscle. Its wall* ore mode
up of long, muscle fibres or muscle ’ vertlsement.
Your cells which, by their - eentuctlon
empty the colon Just as you would
squeeso a rubber hose pipe. These
muscle fibres should contract three
times a day.—within on hour after
each meal. If they do not contract,
they have lost their tone,—their
power to contract.
But. there is a pracHcally perfect
remedy fur lazy, flabby colons. This
remedy quickly restore# the tone, i»
