Common garden sage brewed into a

some. An easier way is to get the

the addition of other ingredients a
large bottle, at little cost, at drug stores,
known as "Wyeth’s Sage and .Sulphur

While gray, faded hair is not sinful, ,
we all desire to retain our youthful ap

gia corn is looking good and is suf
ficiently advanced to Insure a
splendid crop.
Peanuts have mage satisfactory
progress in the old commercial area
of southern Georgia. Fields in the
Piedmont area are rather grassy
and in need of cultivation.
Hay crops are late but making
good growth, with some cowpeas
still being planted.
Splepdid tobacco yield is being
realized. Too frequent rains ,at
the time the crop was ripening
caused a second growth, in some
sections, thereby lowering the qual
ity.
The pecan nut case-bearer is re
ported as prevalent and doing much
damage in the Albany pecan dis
trict, reducing the prospects for a
good crop considerably.
