Mr. William IS. Denny, 1023 Park
Ave., Springfield, Ohio, wrilea:
“I find great pleasure in \nwiting
you and thanking you for what Pe
runa has already done for me. 1

years, and it had affected my head,
nose, throat and stomach, that I
could not eat nor sleep with any sat*
isf action.
“1 have Just taken three bottles. I

Situation Is Better Here
This Week
GRIST MILLS RUNNING
SUPERINTENDENTS OF TWO
PLANTS HOLD CONFERENCE—
SUPPLY OF COAL OBTAINED
* FOR MACON PLANT
Slight improvement is noted in the
power situation, and as a result of a
conference between Superintendent
W. E. Merck of the Jackson plants
and Manager McGruw of the Central
Georgia Power Company, in Macon
Friday, some of the plants that had
been closed down here were allowed
to resume operation.
The several grist mills of the town
and the plant of 11. F. Gilmore were
given power following Mr. Merck’s
visit to Macon. The feed mill and
buggy factory, however, are still
without current.
Hopes were held out Saturday
when it began raining, that the sup
ply of water at the power plant would
be brought up to normal. A consid
erable quantity of rain did fall, but
not enough to materially affect the
water supply.
It was announced that the steam
plant in Macon had been able to se
cure a supply of coal and for that
reason Jackson manufacturing plants
that had been closed down were al
lowed to have current for the pres

Don't Stay Headachy, Con

Bad and Stomach Sour
Get a 10-cent box now.
You men and women who can’t get
feeling right—who have headache,
coated tongue, bad taste and foul
breath, dizziness, can’t sleep, are bil
ious, nervous and upset, bothered
with a sick, gassy, disordered stom
ach. or have a bad cold.
Are you keeping your bowels clean
with Cascarets, or merely farcing a
passageway every few days with
salts, cathartic pills or castor oil?
Cascarets work while you sleep;
cleanse the stomach, remove the
sour, undigested fermenting food and
foul gases; take the excess bile from
the liver and carry out of the system
all the constipated waste matter and
poison in the bowels.
A Cascaret to-night will straighten
you out by morning—a 10-cent box
from any drug store will keep your
stomach sweet, liver and bowels reg
ular, and head clear for months.

GOV’T ORDERS ONLY TWO
GRADES FLOUR MILLED
The government regulations re
garding the milling of flour which
went into effect on December 26 are
now attracting the attention of all
flour dealers.-The new regulations
require that the mills make of 264
pounds of wheat 196 pounds of flour.
Thus 26 per cent of the flour goes to
bran and shorts. Of what is left of
the 196 pounds, there can be made
two grades. One is called 100 per
cent flour, , and the other is 95 per
cent flour. The 95 per cent flour is
the higher grade because the 5 per
cent of the low grade flour is allowed
to he removed for this grade.
The object of the new ruling is
that under a uniform regulation there
may be a saving of from 16,000,000
to 20,000,000 bushels to consumers
and that prices will be more uniform
because of the fact that there will
be only two grades of flour.
Flour dealers, however, state that
there will still be a difference in
flours made by different mills, due to
the difference in skill in handling and
milling.

TEXAS PLANS TO EXPORT RAB
BITS IN LARGE QUANTITIES
New Packing Industry to be Started
In Lone Star State
Waco, Tex., December 29—It is
stated by E. W. Cole, Director of Mar
kets of the State Department of Agri
culture, that plans are on foot for the
construction here of a large rabbit
meat packing plant. The principle
which the promoters have in mind is
to purchase and slaughter rabbits in
enormous quantities and to put them
through the freezing process for ex
port to England and other European
countries. The same system has been
followed in Australia for many years
in the matter of commercializing rab
bits will be practiced by the new con
cern, Mr. Cole says. According to
statistics, the annual exportation of
rabbits from Australia amount to
about 30,000,000 head. Practically
all of these go to England. With the
killing out of the wolves and coyotes
in West Texas the rabbits have so
multiplied that they threaten to be
come almost as serious a pest as they
are in Australia.
Vigorous campaigns are on in sev
eral states to increase the use of
wood for fuel in the place of coal.
In Virginia convict labor is employ
ed to provide wood for fuel.
Inactive Kidneys
Cause Disease
**l iluU not toon forget tho benefits I derived
from the cm of Foley Kidney Pills." —AL A.
Godfrey, Forest Grove, Oregon.
Too much work and too little work
seem to have about the same effect
on persons past middle age. Proper
action of tho kidneys is necessary to
good health. They act as a filter
and remove from the blood poisonous
waste matter which if permitted to
remain in the system leads to many
complications.
Many nervous, tired, run-down men
and women suffer from pains in tho
back and side*, dizzy spells, bladder
weakness, sore muscles and stiff
joints and fail to realize that rheuma
tism, diabetes or even Brights dis
ease may result.
If you have cause to believe that
your kidneys are weak, disordered or
inactive you should act immediately.
Foley Kidney Tills have been used
by young, middle aged and old with
complete satisfaction. They act quick
ly and surely and Tisve given relief
iu cases of ten years' standing.

SPRING OATS AN
IMPORTANT CROP
Large AcreagG Should Be
Planted This Year
EVERY BUSHEL NEEDED
REPORTS SHOW THAT STATE IS
BEHIND ON ACREAGE OF OATS
FARMERS WILL NEED LARGE
FORAGE CROP
Atlanta, Jan. 10.—“ Plant spring
oats, plenty of them,” is the urgent
advice of the State Department of
Agriculture to the farmers of Georgia
Georgia’s grain crop is going to be
short this year and the one way to
make it and get! essential supplies
for the state, is to put in a liberal
acreage of spring, oats at once.
“After carefully looking over the
field, and upon the basis of reports
made to the department, I find Geor
gia’s grain acreage is going to be far
less this year than is necessary to
meet the State’s urgent demands,”
said Commissioner J. J. Brown. “The
only way to make up any part of this
deficiency is by sowing spring oats.
Every farmer in the State should put
in all /.he spring oats he can take care
of, and should begin planting at once.
“Moreover we advise a liberal ap
plication of fertilizers on oats, as at
tention should be given the best pos
sible yield per acre. By foliowing oats
with cow peas, two crops can be
made on the same land within the
year.
“Georgia is going to need every
bushel of oats that can be raised, and
it is the hope of the department that
they will be generously planted in ev
ery section of the State.”
AFTER TWO YEARS
Macon Testimony Remains Unshaken
Time is the best test of truth. Here
is a Macon story that has stood the
test of time. It is a story with a
point which will come straight home
to many of us.
G. W. Harden, 513 Main st., Ma
con, Ga., says: “Off and cn for five
or six years I w r as bothered by at
tacks of backache, caused by disor
dered kidneys. Whenever I caught
cold or exerted myself my kidneys
became affected and a dull pain was
sure to settle right across the small
of my back. I became so lame and
sore through my loins that it was
difficult for me do continue my work.
The kidney secretions, at such times,
were entirely too frequent in pas
sage. I also suffered from pains they
said were inflammatory rheumatism
I tried a number of kidney medicines
but nothing did me much good until
I began taking Doan’s Kidney Pills.
I bought them at DeWitt McCrary’s
Drug Store and used about five
boxes. By that time I was entirely
cured.”
A LATER ENDORSEMENT
OVER TWO YEARS LATER Mr.
Harden said: “I have very little need
of a kidney medicine now. I gladly
confirm all I said before in praise of
Doan’s Kidney Pills. They are the
best remedy I ever used and will do
al that is claimed for them.”

Before I started using Ziron I wouldn’t rest at night, I was so tired feeling and
