three presidents ASK AID FOR CHINA Harding, Wilson and Taft Appeal to Americans to Help Stricken Millions of Sister Republic The President and two ex-Presldents of the United States have joined. for the first time in the history of the country, in an appeal for a philan thropic enterprise. President Hard ng. ex-President Wilson and ex-President Taft are all in the forefront of the movement to send aid from America to the famine victims of China. One of President Harding’s first offi cial acts after his inauguration, taken when he had been in the White House less than two weeks, was to renew the appeal made by his predecessor in be half of America’s sister republic In the East. President Hard ng said in part: “At this, the earliest practicable mo ment in my administration, I desire to add my own to the many appeals ■which have been issued heretofore in behalf of the starving people of a large sect'on of China. * * * “The picture of China’s distress is so tragic that I am moved, therefore, to renew the appeal heretofore made and to express the hope that the Amer ican people will continue to contribute to this humanitarian cause as gener ously as they possibly can.” In appo'nting the American commit tee for China Famine Fund, with his own immediate predecessor in the White House, ex-President Taft, as one of the members, and Thomas W. Lamont of New York, as chairman. President Wilson said in his procla mation : “Not only in the name of humanity, but in that of the friendliness which we feel for a great people in distress, I venture to ask that our clt'zens shall, even though the task of giving is not today a light one, respond as they can to this distant but appealing cry for help.” Fruit Tr^es.

There are three vital processes of human existence, —the digestion of food, the extraction of nourishment from it and the elimination of the •waste. Let anything interfere -with these processes,—let them be interrupted or Improperly carried on, and of some kind follows. Poor digestion and assimila-M % tion means failure to full nourishment from food and M Iff that in turn often means im- V m poverished blood, weakness, anemia, etc. Poor elimination means an accumulation of waste matter which poisons the body, lowers vitality, decreases the power of re sistance to disease and leads to the development of many serious ills. Rheumatism,--due to some interfer ence with the process of elimination, failure to get rid of certain body poisons,—cannot be expected to yield to any medicine that fails to correct the condition responsible for it. Could any reasonable person expect to rid himself of rheumatic pain as long as yi r-„ Yj / / Better Than Pills /ICUIMMUM(Jtj For Liver Ills Get a 25?

The United States Department of Agriculture, through its boll weevil experts, Profs. B. R. Coad and T. P. Cassidy, have issued a statement, a part of which is entitled “Where It Will Pay You to Poison.” This part is as follows: It will pay to poison— If the weevils are really injuring your crop seriously, and If your land is sufficiently fertile to yield at least one-half bale per acre with weevil injury eliminated, and If your farming organization is such that you feel assured that the poison applications will be made at the right time and in the right manner, and If you are willing' to spend the full amount necessary to provide an ade quate supply of dusting machinery and poison. The general gains from weevil poi soning under average, fairly favorable conditions seem to be from 200 to 400 pounds of seed cotton per acre, but, owing to variations in degree of wee vil injury it is not safe to expect much more than the lower figure. Consequently, you should not poi son if the cost of the calcium arse nate, the cost of labor to apply it, and the depreciation on the dusting machines will total more per acre than *he current value of 100 pounds of seed cotton. Hand guns should be figured as de preciating 100 per cent in a season and the larger machines about 25 per cent Do It Right Or Not At All Many valuable lessons have been gained from the recent expension of commercial weevil poisoning. It has again been shown that the boll wee vil can be poisoned with profit if con ditions are favorable and if proper methods are used, but it has been em phasized anew that unfavorable condi tions and improper methods can lead only to failure. A survey of the poi soning by farmers in 1920 shows that an unfortunately large proportion were not properly informed as to the condi tions under which they should poison and the methods they should pursue. As a result there were many unneces sary failures. NR does it by improving digestion, assimilation and elimination the logical way. rheumatic poison Is allowed to fen main in the body. Think of this. It explains thfe Suc cess of Nature’s Remedy (NR Tab lets) in so many cases where other medicines have failed. Thousands are! using NR Tablets every day and get ting relief.

In this week it is hoped that the churches and civic, commercial and professional bodies will take an active part. The success of *this week will determine largely the amount of re lief which can be sent through per sonal sacrifice to 5,000,000 starving people still dependent on outside aid.
