Nearest Mill* are Seven Miles and
Much Wheat Grown.
Unless all signs fail, Tifton will
have a flour mill next fall Gne is
needed here, as the nearest mills are
Poulan on the west and Sycamore on
the north, each about seventeen
miles.
Quite a lot of wheat has been
grown in this territory for two years
past, and as a rule the crop was
found profitable. With the coming
of the boll weevil the wheat acreage
will be increased and this increase
should be kept up until this section
grows enough wheat for its own use.
As an example of what cair be
done here growing wheat, the crop
of Mr. W. S. Smith, on Route 3, is
a good showing.
This year he had three acres in
wheat, from which he threshed
something over ninety bushels, or
over thirty bushels to the acre. This
will turn out over fifteen barrels of
flour.
Mr. Smith has sold some of the
flour at $8 a barrel, which would
make that part of his crop yield
$120, or at the rate of $40 an ai
Besides this, he has his shorts, b
and straw, altogether orth almost
much as the flour at present prices
of feed. He also has another good
crop on the land, grown since the
wheat was cut.
Mr. Smith sowed his wheat th<
third week in November and cautions
those expecting to put in a crop this
fall not to sow too early.
Flour is advancing every eek, and
present prices is on a par with
sixteen-cent cotton. The prudent
farmer will put in a small acreage
in wheat this fall, sufficient for his
own use. It will beat raising cotton
under the boll weevil to pay for
biscuit.

Mr. W. S. Smith brings two stalks
of cotton to the Gazette that show
conclusively what the boll weevil will
do for the crop, and it is our opin
ion that any farmer who wants to
plant a big acreage next year will do
well to take a look at some of the
samples that can be submitted. Then
if they feel like.raising "fodder for
the pest” it’s up to them.

HEALTH CONDITIONS GOOD.
Dr. A. G. Fort, District Health Of
fleer, is now making examinations
of the school children of Tift and Ir
win counties and states that he finds
conditions normal in the two coun.
ties, the rate of defective children
being lower than reported from
some sections.
He went to Eldorado school Thurs
day, where it was reported that dip
theria prevailed in the district, but
states that he did not find any
among any of the students going to
school, the children suffering with it
being confined closely to their
homes, and therefore, there is little
probability that the disease will
spread any there.

Without Knowing the Cause.

with backache and headache; suffer
from nervousness, dizziness, weak-

trouble. Look to your kidneys, as- Snmn
sist them in their work—give them Wester
the help they need. You can use no Wa * firmly convin

Hair stops falling out and gets thick,
wavy, strong and beautiful.
Your hair becomes light, wavy,
fluffy, abundant and appears as soft,
lustrous and beautiful as a young
girl’s after a "Danderine hair
cleanse.” Just try this—moisten a
a cloth with a little Danderine and
ncrcfully draw it through your
hair, taking one small strand at a
time. This will cleanse the hair of
dust, dirt and excessive oil and in
just a few moments you have
doubled the beauty of your hair.
Besides beautifying the hair at
once, Danderine dissolves every parti
cle of dandruff, cleanses, purifies
and invigorates the scalp, forever
stopping itching and falling hair.
But what will please you most will
be after a few weeks’ use when you
will actually see new hair—fine and
downy at first—yea—but really new
hair growing all over the scalp. If
you care for pretty, soft hair and
lots of it sure!" get a 25-cent bottl
of Knowlton’s Danderine from any
Jruggist or toilet counter, and just
try it. (adv.)
