led dishonest people to attempt to

Discovered by a Woman.
Another great discovery has been
made, and that too, by a lady in
this country. “Disease fastened its
clutches upon her and for seven
years she withstood its severest tests,
but her vital organs were undermined
and death seemed imminent. For
three months she coughed incessant
ly, and could not sleep. Hiie final
ly discovered a way to recovery, by
purchasing of us a bottle of Dr.
King’s New Discovery for consump
tion, and was so much relieved on
taking' first dose, that she slept all
night; and with two bottles, has been
absolutely cured. Her name is .Mvs.
Luther Lutz. Thus writes W. (',

Does It Pay To Pull Fodder?
Hon. J Pope Brown and Capt. J
A Coffee, of Pulaski, and Col. R A
Wilson, of Wilcox, three of the most
progressive farmers in the State,
have concluded it does not. Conse
quently they will cut and shock their
corn and when it is cured, by means
of a shredding machine they will
shred stalk, fodder and all and use
for feed. Many farmers are watch
ing this experiment and if it proves
a success, the idea will be universal
ly adopted in this section.

meeting'it was decided to meet, for
