It Is Not Our Policy To Carry Over Goods-Come and Be Convinced DUGGAN BROTHERS 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.

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. WANTED Tenants who can run themselves.

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. P. S. Our Saxo Salve stops itch ing and begins healing at once, L. It. Kennington, Cochran, Ga.
