WOULD ABOLISH COURTS
Sparta, Ga.—The grand jury of
March term of Hancock 'superior
court, which is holding an adjourned
term this week recommends in its
general presentments “that all jus
tice courts in the county be abolish
ed and this business be carried
on through other courts." Although
such a measure has been talked of
for several court sessions, this is the
first grand jury to make such a rec
ommendation.

COTTON PLANT
Needs FOOD

Hartsville, S. C.
"For best results it is
necessary to apply in ad
dition from 300 to 350
lbs. of mineral ammoni
ates as side applications
during the growing sea
son. Nitrate of Soda be
ing immediately available
to the plant as soon as it
is dissolved in the soil
water, is a most excel
lent form of ammoniate
for those side applica
tions and we use it very
largely for this purpose.
Where a scries of heavy
rains occur during May',
June or July, cotton will
in a few days turn pale
and shed much of its im
mature fruit. The imme
diate application of 75
to 100 lbs. of Nitrate will
prevent this change of
color and shedding and is
often responsible for the
production of several
hundred pounds of seed
cotton per acre by hold
ing on the plant the crop
of squares and blooms
that would otherwise
shed off. Our usual prac
tice is to apply about
100 lbs. of Nitrate of
Soda about the time the
squares are beginning to
form and 100 lbs. more
about one month later."

PARENTS INDICTED
WITH BOY DRIVER
OF ACCIDENT CAR
Solicitor General John A. Boykin’s
efforts to break up automobile driv
ing by children under 16 years of
age resulted Friday in the indict
ment of Raymond Pinholster, 15,
and his parents, Mr. and Mrs. D. F.
Pinholster, of 1423 Graham street,
on misdemeanor charges growing out
of an accident Thursday afternoon
when Trula Reed, 8-year-old negro
girl, of 721 Whitehall street (rear),
was killed by an automobile driven
by the younger Pinholster.
The indictment charges that Ray
mond Pinholster operated an auto
mobile before reaching the age of
16 years, the legal age for automo
bile drivers, and that his parents
consented to his driving the car.
Similar charges were returned last
Friday against James Reeves, 13,
and his parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. F.
Reeves, following a recent accident
in Hapevllle, when an automobile
driven by James Reeves struck and
fatally injured G. W. Slayton, of
Hapeville.

Your noonday meal gives you

Things are not much different
with a cotton plant. You put
fertilizer under it —and that’s a
kind of breakfast. It carries the
plant along to chopping time.
Then is when every plant stand
ing in your fields ought to be
side-dressed with 150-200 pounds
of Nitrate of Soda.
They will all repay you for that
good “dinner” of plant food by
cherking right up and making
cotton for you to the end of the
season.
Not what we say. But what
clear - headed, practical cotton
growers all around you do. They
make dollars-and-cents profits
feeding their cotton at chopping
time with this one food that car
ries it on to a high yield maturity.
And Nitrate of Soda gives the same
money - making results when side
dressed on corn.

STOP FRETTIN’
When things don't* come along your
way,
Can’t hurry ’em by frettin’;
If clouds o’ care obscure your day,
Can’t chase ’em off by frettin’.
Your tears just irrigate your woe
An’ freshen up and help it grow—
Don’t wash it out o’sight, and so
There ain’t no use in frettin’.
The heavy load you have to bear
Ain’t lightened up by frettin’;
The sorrow vultures in the air
Ain’t skeered away by frettin’.
If debt is crowdin’, rent is due,
No cash in hand, an’ you are blue,
Brace up and be a man, for you
Can’t square yourself by frettin’.
No matter what your cares and
woes,
Don’t humor ’em by frettin’;
If hard luck aims her heavy blows,
Strike back—don’t go to frettin’.
Screw up your nerve an’ hold your
irrip,
An’ keep a frozen upper lip,
Fur anything on earth can whip
The man who gits to frettin’.

Pains
disappeared
"gEVERAL years ago I was
badly run-down,” says Mrs.
John Bunch, R. F. D. 3, Colum
bia, S. C. "I could not do any
of my work. I was so weak I
could not wash a dish. My back
and sides hurt me at times
dreadfully. I dragged around
until I finally got down in bed.”
Then, explains Mrs. Bunch,
she happened to read about
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and
decided to give it a thorough
trial, the results of which she
describes below:
"It seemed to reach the
cause of my trouble at once.
I did not take it long before
my appetite began to improve.
I gained in weight from 114
pounds until now I weigh 125
pounds. I soon was able to be
up around the house. I took
up my household duties and
was delighted with my return
ing strength.
"I now do all my own work.
The pains in my sides and
back have disappeared and I
feel like a different person.”
Cardui has been helpirg suf
fering women for nearly 50
years. Sold by all druggists.
