Calomel ealirates! It’s mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a
sluggish liver. When calomel comes
into contact with sour bile it crashes
into it,causing cramping-and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get a bottle of
Dodson’s Liver Tone for*a few cents
which is a harmless vegetable sub
stitute for dangerous calomel. Take
a spoonful and if it doesn’t start

you take Dodson’s Liver Tone you
will wake up feeling great, full of
ambition and ready for work w

just published some figures which
will be of particular interest not only
to farmers in the state, but to all
Georgians, indicating as they do,
Georgia’s exceptional farm values.
According to that bureau the aver
age price paid for Georgia’s 1917
corn crop wassl.6o a bushel. With a
production in this state of 72,000,000
bushels in 1917, the Georgia com
crop was worth $23,040,000 more j
than the Alabama corn crop, on a ba- *
sis of the same number of bushels. I
The difference in selling value of 32 1
cents a bushel is somewhat remark
able as between close neighboring
states, but the figures come direct
from the most reliable crop estimat
ing bureau in existence, and Geor-'
gians must find in them particular
cause for congratulation.
The same bureau states that the av
erage price of Georgia’s 1917 sweet
potatoes Vi is $1.05 a bushel, and
those of Alabama, 91 cents, a differ
ence of 14 cents in Georgia’s favor;
or, on the total crop of 11,625,000
bushels, an excess of $1,627,500 for
Georgia over her neighbor.
The causes of these remarkable
differences may have been several,
but there can be no question that the
persistent activity and effort of the
Georgia State Bureau of Markets of
the department of agriculture had
much to do with it.
Much of the Georgia crop of sweet
potatoes was preserved for continued
use during the winter through the
building of curing houses. In this
connection the bureau stresses the
fact that it is important that every
producer of sweet potatoes in large
quantities in the state, should provide
himself with a potato curing house
to take care of his product and in or
der that it may be fed to market as
needed.

SEVERE PENALTY

FARMER IS MADE WISER
GWINETT COUNTY FARMER FOR
CED TO GIVE UP FOUR FOR
SEVEN MONTHS PERIOD -LAW
TO BE RIGIDLY ENFORCED
It is reported on what seems to be
reliable authority that the food law,
as applies to the qantity of flour a
citizen may purchase, are being vio
lated in Butts county. If such is the
case somebody is likely to get in a
peck of trouble. While it is true the
food laws have not been any too
strictly enforced in Jackson and Butts
county, the government is beginning
to tighten up.
The following from Tuesday’s At
lanta Constitution will be of interest
here:
"Although there is so much flour
in Georgia qt present that an embar
go has been placed on shipmnts into
the state until further notice, and al
though wheat fields are now spring
ing into "boot,” giving fair promise
of an abundant harvest, all this
means nothing to M. Brogdon, of
Gwinett county, who has been sen
tenced by the federal food adminis
tration of Georgia to subsist for the
next seven months on eornbread or
some other substitute than flour.
• This is the effect of an o;*der is
sued Monday by Dr. Andrew M.
Soule, federal food administrator for
Georgia, prohibiting any dealer from
sellng Brogdon flour for a period of
seven months.
“Brogdon is alleged to have violat
ed the rule of the food administratio?i
which provides that a person shall not
purchase more than six pounds of
flour per month for each person in his
family. He was found guilty of pur
chasing to the limit of tjie law from
one merchant, then going to another
dealer and duplicating his purchase.
This is the first case in Georgia where
the food administration has put its
purchasing ban on the individual con
sumer.”
