Tf SUBSTITUTES FOR SUGAR
P Satisfactory subtitutes for sugar
rmay be used to a much larger extent.
These include sorghum, com and cane
syrup, maple sugar and syrup, and
honey. The maple syrup and sugar
production can and should be increas
ed in those areas in which maple
trees are growing in sufficient num
bers to warrant the expenditure of
the necessary time and labor. Maple
syrup and sugar are produced in 19
states, the annual output exceeding
14,000,000 pounds of sugar and
4,000,000 gallons of syrup. These fig
ures can be increased. The production
of sorghum in 1917 exceeded that in
1916 by nearly 4,000,000 gallons.
Sorghum syrup may be produced in
nearly every state in the Union. An
increased production of sorghum sy
rup will enable the public to still fur
ther conserve the sugar supply in the
most available form for transporta
tion to our soldiers.
LUXURY FOR SORE FEET
Skin specialists have discovered
that painful, perspiring and swollen
feet with corns, bunions and ingrow
ing nails are all caused by germs
which grow in the pores of the skin,
causing decay of the cuticle, irrita
tion, rawness, eczema, inflammation
and odor. These germs are instantly
destroyed by Eucapine, the antisep
tic healing salve applied after bath
ing at bedtime. It draws out all the
inflammation and soreness before
morning, destroys the germs and re
stores healthy condition to the skin
and nails.
It is explained that ingrowing nails
do not really grow down into the flesh,
as supposed, but that the flesh, being
swollen, is pressed up over the nail.
The Eucapine takes out the swelling
and inflammation, destroys the germs
an dthe trouble disappears. Corns and
bunions gradually disappear in the
same manner by removing the cause.
Eucapine is the modern scientific
treatment for pain, inflammations and
germ infections of the skin and mu
cous membranes and has many daily
uses in every home. Get a large fam

ANOTHER CARGO
NITRATE COMING
Should Reach Savannah
During Week
LACK OF SHIPS HINDERS
WILL ARRIVE IN TIME FOR USE
ON CORN AN OTHER GRAIN
CROPS QUOTA ALLOWED
COUNTY NOT YET KNOWN
Mr. R. P. xSasnett, a member of the
Butts county committee to secure ni
trate of soda for farmers, has receiv
ed a letter from Washington advising
that another cargo of nitrate will ar
rive in Savannah about May 25.
From that point t he fertilizer will
be shipped to the various counties or
dering it. The allotment that Butts
county will receive from this ship
ment is not yet known.
The county originlly ordered 210
tons, 47 tons of which were delivered
several weeks ago for use on wheat
and oats. The present shipment will
be of considerable help to tfarmess.
The total quota will be delivered,
it is said, but whether it will arrive in
time for use o ncom and other crops
cannot be foretold.
Failure to deliver the nitrate
promptly has been due to shipping
troubles, as the letter points out: “I
regret very much that we have been
delayed in getting nitrate transported
to this country, but, owing to the
necessity of using ships for trans
porting troops and supplies to our
soldiers, it has simply been impos
sible for the Shipping Board to fur
nish us transportation to get the ni
trate to this country as early as de
sired .1 wish to assure you, however,
that every effort will be made by this
Department to rush the nitrate for
ward as soon as unloaded.”
There are now 20 uniforms for wo
men in war work in the United States.
They are for munition workers, tele
phone and radio operators, yeomen,
employees of Ship Building Board

workers, Y. M. C. A. workers, Wo
man’s Motor Corps, Girl Scouts and

PROTECT THE BIRDS
(Mrs. S. L. Lofton)
Little birds up in the tree
Cast your eyes down to the ground.
Do you any danger see,
Boys with sling shots all around?
Little boys don’t kill the pretty birds
That fly and sing around your
home,
They seem to think that they are safe
When around your home they come.
One day I saw some little boys
With sling shots strong and free.-
Go chasing little birds around
From every bush and tree.
At last a tiny little bird
Came falling to he ground
They gathered it, it was not dead,
Just had a painful wound.
They plucked the feathers from is
breast
But left those on its wings,
They let it fly up on a tree,
Again they used the slings.
God made the little birds, He made
them all,
He made them to be free,
a
He knoweth w<he nthe least one falls
And by whose hand it be.
I love the dear little frisky wren,
Her bead-like eyes, her plain brown
dress,
She likes to come so neer your home
To built her little nest.
The little birds all dressed in blue
That around your garden stay,
They sometimes seem to talk to you,
I don’t know what they say.
Unless they say, “Fix me a place
To build myself a little nest
And I will around your garden stay
And rid it of those ugly pests.”
The mocking bird, oh! how he sings,
He seems so glad and free,
He will pause while building on his
nest
To sing a song for you and me.
Don’t kill the birds, just let them be,
We surely need them every one,
The insect pest will do his worst
When the birdies are all gone.
I w.ould not such a coward be
to take the life of things so small,
So helpless and so innocent,
And you so large and tall.
A CHILD HATES OIL,
CALOMEL, PILLS FOR
LIVER AND BOWELS
Give “California Syrup of
Figs” if Cross, Sick, Fever
ish, Constipated
Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the “dose” mother insist
ed on—castor oil, calomel, cathart
ics. How you hated them, how you
fought against taking them.
With our children it’s different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don’t realize what they
do. The children’s revolt is well-foun
ded. Their tender little “insides” are
injured by them.
If your child’s stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only de
licious “California Syrup of Figs.”
Its action is positive, but gentle. Mil
lions of mothers keep this harmless
“fruit laxative” handy; they know
children love to take it; that it never
fails to clean the liver and bowels and
sweeten the stomach, and that a tea
spoonful given today saves a sick
child tomorrow.
Ask your druggist for a
bottle of “California Syrup of Figs,”
which has full directions for babies,
children of all ages and for grown
ups plainly on each bottle. Beware
of counterfeits sold here. See that it
is made by “California Fig Syrup
Company.” Refuse any other kind
with contempt, advt.

The British meat shortage is being
felt more severely than at any time
since war started. That the shortage
is not confined to meats, however, is
shown by the fact that effective con
trol of the milk supply is aleady be
ing considered in order to meet a
possible greater shortage later in the
year, and that some sections of Eng
lish labor are favoring extensions of
the compulsory rationing system to
bread, cheese and tea.
