CONTROL COTTON MARKET THROUGH BIG GRAIN CROPS The fine agricultural display that Butts county has just made is a sign or greater things, a be token of better times and the harbinger of a better day. Now is the time to sow oats, and about the 15th of November is the time to sow wheat. Don’t put these things off just because we may have a little cotton to pick, but just lay everything else aside and sow it. The only way under the sun to diversify our crops is to plant them in season. It seems that merchants, bank ers and chambers of commerce are all anxious to see the farmer diversify his crops. And I have about come to the conclusion that they mean it, and in view of all these facts don’t press the far mer on his debts so hard that it would deprive him of sowing his wheat and oats at the right time. If every farmer will sow a bountiful supply of small grain this fall and plant plenty of corn next spring, the cotton problem will solve itself. Now in conclusion, let me say this, by way of parenthesis: Ev ery farmer owes more or less money, and if you owe more than one man and if you haven’t enough to pay all you owe, pro rate it as near as you can and jxx] keep you hanging jSSI |rftf 'round the pantry —all OnG ifjgj the safest, purest, most economical Baking Pow- Jyß} der.

DON'T TAKE CHANCES F CHILD’S TONGUE IS COATED If cross, feverish, sick, bil ious, clean little liver and bowels A laxative today saves a sick child tomorrow. Children simp ly will not take the time from play to empty theirjbowels, which become clogged up with waste, liver gets sluggish, stomach sour. Look at the tongue, Mother! if coated, or your child is listless, cross, feverish, breath bad, rest less, doesn’t eat heartily, full of cold or has sore throat or any other children’s ailment, give a teaspoonful of “California Syrup of Figs,” then don’t worry, be cause it is perfectly harmless, and in a few hours all this constipa tion, poison, sour bile and fermen ting waste will gently move out of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child again. A thorough “inside cleansing” is oftimes all that is necessary. It should be the first treatment given in any sickness. Beware of counterfeit fig syrup. Ask your druggist for aSO-cent bottle of “California Syrup of Figs,” which has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly printed on the bottle. Look carefully and see that it is made by the “California FigSyrupCompany.” pay them all some. It is a bad plan to owe too many men. It is better to owe one man. It gives better satisfaction to all concern ed but if you are unfortunate enough to owe several men and haven't enough to pay them all don’t pour it all into one man’s jug and leave the other fellow entirely out. Now, if this isn’t a sound busi ness proposition we would be pleased if someone would tell us the reason why. Plow Handles. UNION RIDGE Mr. and Mrs. C. N Mayfield visited friends here Sunday.
