DOUBTING THOMASES After all that has been said on the subject for the lest, several years, and after the experience of any number of Grady county peo ple the past season with their late cotton, and after ono person after another has gone into the ter ritory where the weevil has gotten firmly established and has come back with stories of entire orlops be ing destroyed by the weevil, it does look as if there would be no body left to doubt that if radical measures are not adopted next year that the damage done in this coun ty is going to be bt yoad calculi - tion. However, there are a great many of our people who even now do not take the coming of the wee vil with an.v degree of seriousness and who believe that tho cotton growers can go along just about in the usual way and that somehow they will continue to grow cotton in about the usual quantities. We would like to be able to do something that would make these folks wake up to the gravity of the situation. It ought not to serious ly interfer with the prosperity of Grady county next year to have the weevil here. After the read justment that is sure to come soon er or later the change is bound to work to the betterment of the eounty, but how tremendously bet ter for that readjustment to come in a sane and logical way than to have it forced on us after a year of devastation by the boll weevil. We do not want to see our farm ers stop the growing of cotton. We believe that it will bo best for practically every farmer that is now growing cotton to continue to grow some cotton. What we do warit to see is that every farmer will grow only so much cotton as he is sure that he can keep the weevils from destroying. Of course the amount of this is going to vary with the different farms and it would be foolish to set some arbi- traty standard for each farmer to observe/ The point is that no one should by any means plant more cotton than he will be able to give proper attention to insure a crop and at the same time be able to look after the balance of his acre age in other crops. This is a matter of such vital im portance to the county that every body-should take it on himself to try to have this policy carried out in order to avert the setback that is sure to come next fall if the wee vil is allowed tp have full sway next year. Heartburn is a symptom of indi gestion. Take a dose of HERBINE in such cases. The pain disap pears instantly. The bowels ope rate speedily and you feel fine, vig orous and cheerful. Price 50c.
