ailing women in its past half century of wonderful
bucccss, and it will do the same for you.
You can’t make a mistake in taking
CARDUI
The Woman’s Tonic
Miss Amelia Wilson, R. F. D. No. 4, Alma, Ark.,
says: “I think Cardui is the greatest medicine on earth,
tur women. Befooe 1 began to take Cardui, 1 was
so weak and nervous, and bad such awful dizzy
spells and a poor appetite. Now I feel as well and ,
as strung as i ever did, and can eat most anything.’*

We Should Do Something to Combat Threatened Still
Higher Food Prices.
Whether there he war or peace he
tween this country and tlenuany,
whether war he continued in Eu
rope for another year or two, oi
whether peace should come, the
demand tor foodstuffs will exceed
the supply, both in this country
and abroad. The shortage in the
world’s food Crops last year, taken
in connection with condition:; ere
ated by the war, brings us nearer
a famine situation in foodstuffs
than the world has known in this
generation. If the crops of this
country should, by unfavorable
weather conditions or by a lessen
ed acreage, be short ol a full aver
age yield, we would have almost
famine conditions, because we will
go into the next crop practically
barren of food supplies.
Nothing less than a bumper crop
of grain will save us from exorbi
tantly high prices for .wheat and
corn next winter. It H important
that the whole country should
irr.deistand this situation, but it i,s
doubly important that the farmer*
ot the South should understand it
and plant the largest acreage in
grain which they have ever had in
order to save themselyes-froin hav
ing to pay the highest prices they
have ever paid for their foodstuffs.
Every business man in the South
ahonld do all in his power to urge,
upon Southern farmers the plant
ing of grain and the raising of
all kind this spring and summer.
It is hardly possible to predict
what may happen to cotton. The
price, judged by the world’s de
maud ought to be high, out in

tions here and elsewhere, a largf*
eotton crop might prove a misfort

profit.
The south might raise too big a
ck p for its own prosperity, but it
cannot raise too big a grain crop
nor too much livestock. Every
availably acre should he put into
the raising of foodstuffs, into grain
vegetables, potatoes and us much
attention as possible should be
given to livestock and even to
the iai ing ol chickens and to dais
rying, for the purpose of meeting
the home demand for foodstuffs.
It. will lie almost a’ crime for
any southern farmer not to pro>
vide, during the coining * spring
and summer, for all the foodstuffs
which his family will need for the
next twelve months. Anything
short of that would he ignnrinp

try and the world confronts in the
lack of foodstuffs, and in the cer
tainty of high prices. Huai
ne ; men, state governments and
the national government owe it to
the farmers and to the welfare of
the country to stress these points
with all possible emphasis. The
south can become independent for
food dulls by quick and vigorous
action this spring and summer by
its farmers, and if it fails to do so,
it will be drained ol hundreds of
millions of dollars for high priced
foodstuffs which should have been
raised at home, and there wiil be
poverty in many homes where
there should be abundance. —

is not at all within the line oi
probability, however, that any of

simple fact that any expenditures
made by the lessee on the state
property during the life of thy old
lease will not credit on account ol
the terms ol the new lease.
' It is understood, however, that
surveys, plans and drawings of all
the important improvements to be
made will be gone through with
and put iu shape by the engineers
and officials of the leasing road be
fore the date of the new lease, and
that the work will ne inaugurated
immediately after Dee., 29, 1919;
in all probability during the month
of January next following. Alloi
this proposed work, it is under
stood, will carry uu ultimate total
