There will doubtless be many

than ever before, as it will be a

In some sections of the West it

Few of ub realize the danger of
CoughB and Colds. We consider them
common and harmless ailments. How¬

A call has been issued for a

Executive Committee for Feb.
19th, at which time a date will
be fixed for the election of dele¬

We notice where the State
Board of Medical examiners in
executive session in Atlanta a
few weeks since, put a stop to
the practice in many hospitals of
the state of allowing trained
nurses to administer dangerous
drugs to patients. This is the
right move as doctors depend too
much on nurses. If physicians
can’t stay away from fishing,
hunting or swapping horses long
enough to look after their pa¬

A petition has been circulated
around tuwn this week getting
the names of those wishing to
work at Copperhill. The requir¬

we understand that they nearly
have that amount signed already

Monday. This is a good thing
and will give those wishing to
work at Copperhill an opportuni¬

She Will
Recover
So her doctor'said. Her
friends and neighbors felt
sure of it too. They have
used Peruna themselves
and know of its merits.
That old cough that had
worried her for years and
years, for which she had
taken all sorts of cough
medicines, has disappeared.
Peruna is doing the work.
She will recover. Indeed,
she has recovered.
Her name is Mrs. William
Hohmann, 2764 Lincoln Ave.,
Chicago, Ills. She had suffered
with catarrh of the bronchial
tubes and had a terrible cough
ever since a child. As she got
older she grew worse. She
coughed both winter and sum¬
mer. Had to sit op at night.
Could not sleep. “But all that
has left me now, Peruna has
cured me.”

kelommendeo for croup,
W. C. Allen, Boselev, Mo.,says.
‘‘I have raised a family of four
children and used Foley’s Honey
and Tor with all of them, I find
it the best cough and emug medi¬
cine I ever useri I us-d it for eight
nr ten years and can recommend it
for croup.” Same satisfactory re¬
sults for coughs and coins. Sold
everywhere.
METHOD.
Method is the very hinge of
business, and there is no method
without punctuality. Punctuality
is important because it subserves
the peace and good temper of a
family. Calmness of mind, which
it produces, is another advantage
of punctuality. A disorderly man
is always in a hurry. He has no
time to speak to you because he is
going elsewhere, and when he gets
there he is too late for his business
or he must hurry away before he
can finish it
USEFULNESS.
It is a great satisfaction at the
close of life to feel that you have
tved not for yourself alone, but
that you have been useful to others.
You may be assured also that the
same feeling is a source of comfort
and happiness at any period of life.
Nothing in this world is so good as
usefulness. It tends to the im¬
provement of your own character.

OWN YOUR CROP
INSTEAD OF OWE IT
Food And Grain Crops Will Make
Agricultural Scuth Independent,
Says H. G. Hastings
Atlanta, Ga.—(Special.)—The cred¬
it system under which the agricultu¬
ral south works and stays poor is an¬
alyzed in a striking way by H. G.
Hastings of Atlanta, chairman of the
agricultural committee of the Cham¬
ber of Commerce, and a member of
the executive council of the South¬
eastern Fair. He does not mince
words in talking about the situation.
“Every season during the last fifty
years,” he says, “there has been trou¬
ble in the cotton belt whenever the
crop was large and the price low, *>r
the crop short. Each tiriie the cry of
hard times goes up, and the reason
back of it is that the farmers cannot,
get enough money to pay.-their debts
out of their so-called cash crop—cot¬
ton. It is disheartening because it is
so absolutely unnecessary.
"A cotton farmer’s debts are large¬
ly for food and grain, charged up
against him on the merchants’ books
at two to three times the price that
those same items could be produced
on bis own acres, and usually without
serious interference with a crop of cot¬
ton as large as he now makes.
"The trouble is that most cotton
farmers owe their crop instead o:
owning it when made.
"The credit way looks the ear;
way, but it strangles most farmer
before they get through life.
“I have said repeatedly in pub!’
that no state or section
any country can be prosperous th
is regularly dependent on anoth.
for its food supplies. What
true of a state or section is true
the individual farmer.

____ Fair held _____ in Atlanta ________ in No

"A good big home garden kept

“When we make our food and grain

we will own instead of owe
crops when made, and farm
will accumulate in the south
