Smith, of 2106 Stout Street “Twenty-five years ago, 1 was suffering from wom anly weakness. 1 read of Cardui in an almanac, and thought I would try it. I got a bottle and it helped me from the first. After that, during the whole of my married life. I took Cardui when I needed it “About four years ago, change of life came on me. . . I grew weaker and weaker, and was confined to my bed, where I lay on my back for days. I was told that only a severe operation could do me any good, and this de pressed me very much, for I dreaded such an ordeal. “I remembered how Cardui had helped me for female trouble in the past and I had read of how it had helped other women during change of life, so one night. I told my husband to go to the drug store and get me a bottle. I began taking it at once. From the first dose I could feel myself getting stronger. . . I continued to take Cardui until I was entirely through this very trying period of a woman’s life.” Cardui. at all dealers*. NC-158 WEBBSEESGOOD ram FOBHOGS Experts Believe Price for Live Georgia Hogs Will Reach 10c Pound This Fall MOULTRIE, July 30.—W. W. Webb, of Hahira, state representa tive and live stock specialist for the state bureau of markets, be lieves the price of live hogs w?l reach ten cents a pound this fall and that the markets will hold up well for many months to come. ‘ The hog supply of America is at a low ebb” stated Webb, ‘and we are facing the highest hog market enjoyed by’ this section in many years. I firmly believe that hogs will be selling at 10 cents per pound this fall, if infallible indications are worth anything at all” Webb stated. Webb says that the Georgia hog crop is between 40 and 50 per cent off this year, regardless of the fact that the state has the best pros-' i pect for a bumper feed crop in ( many years. Corn, peanuts and potatoes are in abundance, and marketing these crops through hogs at ten cents a pound seems to be the most profit able and safest way possible. Even j the waste in the fields after har vesting the peanuts and potatoes' will fatten many hogs and every ■pound added by these fields is clear profit. In the west the corn crop is off at least 25 per cent. Webb states. The hog crop is reduced tn direct i proportion to the corn there, which means that there will be one fourth | less hogs sold from there this year ( than last. There is no danger of the demand for hog meat decreas- j ing and these conditions are sure to bring an increased price. Georgia is not producing enough ’ hogs for her own use. At present, I packing houses within the state are importing hogs from the west to supply the demand of the state. * There is no reason whv this should be necessary, and instead the state should be exporting, Mr. Webb as serted.
