FERTILIZER ltd LBR
FUR BIG SPRING GULFS
Lcdk For Demand To Co 2C re:
Cent More Than Us rd
Last Season
Fertilizer manufacturers in Amer
icus, as well as salesmen connected
with all fertilizer concerns, and
the warehousemen, are very busy
now making arrangements for the
spring sales. All of these interest
ed declare that an unusual amount
of fertilizers will be sold in this sec
tion th : s season because of the in
creased farm activities.
It is indicated that the cotton
acreage will be considerably aug
mented this season, farmers believing
that they can get ahead of the boll
weevil by following some of the
plans recommended for outwitting
the pest.
It is estimated that the increased
fertilizer sales over that of last year
will be about 20 per cent for Sum
ter county, according to a well k lown
Americus warehouseman, who always
keeps in close touch with fertilizer
and cotton sales .

OLD TIMER IS BACK.
“My friends had all given up and
never expected to see me around
again. I had given un hoping my
self, as no medicine touched hiy case.
1 he doctors had tried everything. My
food did not digest and filled me with
gas. My brother in Philadelphia
wrote me to try Mayr’s Wonderful
Remedy. The first dose gave me
wonderful relief and I am now as well
as I ever was and feel thirty years
younger." It is a simple, harmless
preparation that removes the catar
rhal tract and allays the inflamma
tion which cause practically all
stomach, liver and intestinal ailments,
incuding appendicitis. One dose will
convince of money refunded.

If Back Hurts
Begin on Salts
Flush your Kidneys occasionally
if you eat t«o much
meat.
No man or woman who cats lots of
meat regularly can make a mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally, says
a well-known authority. Too much meat
may form uric acid, which clogs the
kidney pores so that they sluggishly
filter or strain only part ot the waste
and poisons from the blood; then you
get sick. Rheumatism, headaches, liver
trouble, nervousness, constipation, dizz
iness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders
often come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts, or if
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding, get
about four ounces of Jad Salts from
any reliable pharmacy and take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before break
fast for a few days and your kidneys
may then act fine. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
has used for generations to flush
clogged kidneys and stimulate them to
activity, also to help neutralize the acids
in urine so it no longer causes irritation,
thus often ending bladder disorders.
■lad felts is inexpensive and can not
injure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia water drink, which everyone ran
take now and then to help keep the
kidneys clean and the blood pure, there
by often preventing serious kidney com
plications.
