The following communication
from Harry Hodgson, of Athens,
whose business has to do with
cotton and cotton seed products
will be of interest to Gilmar’s
planters in buying fertilizers! ..

“There is much less fertilizer
available this year than there was
last year and last year there was
only half a normal supply. This
is caused by the sulphuric acid
being drawn out of the south by
the munition plants.

not make acid phosphate.

Corn with the dearth in fertilizer
that exists. All intelligent farm¬
know that both of these crops

fertilizers, and farmers should be
to use all the fertilizers
can get.
‘ ‘A good crop is essential to the
success of t h e whole
south, and some newspapers have
been very short-sighted i n the
in their advice to farmers on
fertilizer question. Of course,
farmers should save every pound

people would greatly re¬

.EVERYBODY SEES A
CHANGE IN FATHER,
"My father has suffered from
chronic stomach trouble for over
20 years and has paid out thous¬
ands of dollars on medicines and
doctors, *said G. W. Slayton, a
well-known Cobb county farmer,
who lives near Smyrna, a short
distance out of Atlanta.
‘‘We tried nearly everything
trying to cure him, and he went
t tew^VwouThdp S
looked like nothing would
reach his trouble. Then he tried
dieting, and lived on liquid food
until he almost tarved—but even
‘0 do an, eood, ,nd
he just kept going from bad tb
worse.
! “I don’t guess there ever was a
% as stubborn as his, and if
re ever was a confirmed dys
tic he was one of them, and I
ess he would have been one
yst if it hadn’t been for this
Tanlac,
.“The first we heard of this
medicine was when my father
saw an advertisement in the pa¬
pers from parties h e knew in
Tennessee, who were friends of
his, and he knew what they sa. ; d
about it was the truth—so he got
it right away and began taking it.
*‘tVell, sir, it acted just like ]
magic— and everybody notices the j
change in father now—why, he
is'just rgijusi like a different man, and
sit£ down to the table and eats
like a farm hand- Only yesterday
he ate pork and turnips for his,
dinner, and ate so much we were
actually afraid he was overdoing
the thing, but he laughed and
said nothing hurt him now, and
that he was hungry and expected
to eat and make up for lost time.
“Now, when a medicine will
do things like that, I think people
ought to know, about it, and I
want to say right now that I
would not give one bottle of Tan¬
lac for all the other medicines
and health resorts in the country
put together.” —
