181 Bushels Of Corn
To One Acre
World’s Greatest Yield Made By
A Georgia Boy.—Figures Cer
tified To By Authorities.
Augusta, Ga. —The world’s great
est yield of corn for 1913 has been
made by Edward Jackson Welborn,
a hoy under 17 years of ags, of
Morgan county, in the Augusta dis
trict.
Authenticated figures, certified to
and accepted by local, state and fed
eral authorities definitely placed him
at the head of corn growers of the
nation. He made 181.72 bushels of
corn on a scant acre of land, ex
ceeding his yield of last year by ap
proximately twenty bushels.
The corn was grown on upland,
on a lot used for dairying alx.ut ten
years, and was planted iri rows
three feet, four inches apart, and
an average of five inches in the
drill. The acre contained about
25,000 stalks of corn, and accord
ing to the authorities, it averaged
o.ie and one-half ears of corn per
stalk.
Prof. J. K. Giles, assistant state
agent in charge of field work for the
state and federal department of ag
riculture, states that he is of the
opinion that, with one more rain,
the yeild would have gone to 250
bushels per acre.

Wider Distribution
Of Cotton Statistics
The arrangements made by Hon.
Win. J. Harris, Director of the
Census for the wider distribution of
statistics collected by his office con
cerning the quantity of cotton gin
ned, the quantity of cotton consuni
ed monthly, and the stocks of cot
ton on hand at the end of each
month, has met with general ap
proval throughout the cotton grow
ing states.
He has received numerous sug
gestions concerning a still widei dis
tribution of these statistics, and he
has made arrangements with the
Postmaster General to allow the
postmasters in every post office in
counties where cotton is grown to
post in a conspicuous place copies
of the reports containing statistics
of cotton. These copies will he
printed on extra large-cards, so
the figures can be easily read. Mr.
Harris hopes that in this manner
he will lie able to give the farmers,
and all others, access to the valua
ble statistics collected by this Bu
reau. Heretofore the reports have
been given by the Bureau of the
Census to newspaper representatives
and to different telegraph compa
nies for distribution. Following
this distribution copies of the re
ports have been mailed to the gin
ners, manufacturers, and ware
house men, but there has been no
practical method devised for the
distribution of the information di
rectly to the farmers. It is Mr.
Harris’s purpose to give the statis
tics to the farmer so they can take
advantage of the information col
lected by the Federal Government.

INDIGESTION OVERCOME
Overcome by Simple Remedy.
Hurried and careless habits of eat
ing, irregular meals and foods that
do not harmonize, tend to weaken
the digestive organs and result in
different forms of stomach trouble.
If you are one of the unfortunates
Who have drifted into this condition,
eat simple foods only, slowly, regu
larly and take Vlnol, our delicious
cod liver and iron tonic.
Mrs. H. J. Smith, Thomasville, Ga.,
says: "I suffered from a stomach
trouble, was tired, worn out and ner
vous. A friend advised me to tako
Vinol. My stomach trouble soon dis
appeared and now I eat heartily and
have a perfect diggstlon and I wish
every tired, weak woman could have
Vinol, for I never spent any money
in my life that did me so much good.”
The recovery of Mrs. Smith was
due to the combined action of the
medicinal elements of the cods’ livers
—aided by the blood making and
strength creating properties of tonic
iron, which are contained in Vinol.
We will return the purchase money
every time Vinol fails to benefit.
