UGII! CALOMEL MAKES
YOU DEATHLY SICK
Stop Using Dangerous Drug Before
It Salivates You! W’s Horrible!
You’re bilious, sluggish, consti
pated and believe you need vile,
dangerous calomel to start your liv
er and clean your bowels.
Here’s my guarantee! Ask your
druggist for a 50 cent bottle of Dod
son’s Liver Tone and take a spoon
ful tonight. If it doesn't start your
liver and straighten you right up
better than calomel and without
griping or making you sick I want
you to go back to the store and get
your money.
Take calomel today and tomorrow
you will feel weak and sick and
nauseated. Don’t lose a day’s work.
Take a spoonful of harmless, vege
table Dodson’s Liver Tone tonight
and wake up feeling great. It’s per
fectly harmless, so give it to your
children any time. It can’t salivate,
so let them eat anything afterwards.
BOLL WEEVIL
PREPAREDNESS CLUBS
By Andrew M. Soule. Pres. Ga. State
College Of Agriculture
Have you joined the boll weevil pre
paredness club? If not, you should
do so at once. By so anding you
will perform an important public serv
ice, and you will aid materially in the
fight which must be waged against this
miserable pest which threatens the
welfare of the primary industry of the
South. Nothing is accomplished with
out organization. The European war
has given us one illustration after an
other of the effectiveness of people
combining to accomplish a given end.
The day of isolated effort is past. We
must cease to be a nation so thorough
ly individualistic as we have been in
the past if we would meet the exigen
cies of situations such as the boll wee
vil invasion has thrust upon us. It is
true, of course, that many fanners are
still in doubt as to the nature and
extent of the damage which the weevil
will do. In fact, there are still a lot
of “doubting Thomases" who think the
weevil will not injure them in the least.
While a dream may be a pleasant
thing, a nightmare is something to
abhor, and the farmers who think that
the weevil will not reach their com
munity or damage them may just at
present be enjoying a pleasant dream,
but they will presently wake up to the
experience of a horrible nightmare
w hich will unfortunately be a stern re
ality in the worst sense of the word,
and something which they will not be
able to escape from except by fol
lowing the very definite advice which
the College of Agriculture is ready to
place at. their disposal through the aid
of the county agents.
In order to arouse the farmers of
Georgia to a sense of their peril and
to inform them as to the best means of
lighting the weevil and to join them
together in a vast co-operative effort,
the policy of organizing boll weevil
preparedness cluhs was decided on
some months ago. This idea was orig
inated by Hon. A. P. Brantley, of Black
shear, and its value was so instantly l
self-evident that a large number of cer
tifkates were immediately prepared,
and are now being distributed widely
throughout the state for the purpose
of securing a representative member
ship in Georgia. If yen are not at
present a member of the boll weevil
j preparedness club or have not secured
one of the buttons worn by the mem
bers, you should get in touch with
your county agent at once and join
that great progressive educational
force which is destined to aid Georgia
In redeeming herself front the losses
which the boll weevil will inflict. Your
active aid and sympathy Is needed In

Silage the
Universal Winter Feed
By M. P. Jarnagin, Prof. Of Animal
Husbandry, Georgie State Col
lege Of Agriculture
Experiments and feeding tests con
ducted by the Georgia State College <4
Agriculture and ' other institutions
throughout the United States have
demonstrated conclusively the value
of silage in economizing the cost of
< arrying all classes of cattle. On ac
count of i lie long growing season it
has been contended by many stockmen
that the silo is not a necessity in
Georgia. It. is true that many winter
crops can be grown successfully and
have played a most important part in
providing green succulent feed for all
kinds of liv>- stock throughout the win
ter months. On farms where less than
ten cattle are carried this is the best
substitute for iho silo, but even in the
most southern section of Georgia there
should be a silo on every farm where
as many as ten cattle are kept. This
necessity will constantly become great
er as the value of lands enhance. An
acre grown in sorghum and kaffir corn
w ill produce fully three times as many
tons of feed as the same acre of lan
grown in a soiling crop and cat and
fed green direct to the cattle. Yields
of 15 tons of silage per ~cre on the
best lands may be expected. Forty
pounds of ensilage per day will make
a full feed for a 1,000 pound animal.
Where cattle are fed 120 days this will
require a little less than two and a
half tons per animal for a feeding
period of four months. A small amount
of cotten seed meal, peanut meal, vel
vet bean meal, or a mixture of these
should be fed in addition to the silage
and some dry roughage in the form of
shredded corn stalks or oat straw
should also be given. Thus it is seen
that from four to seven animals can
be carried during the winter feeding
period on the silage grown on one acre
of land. The College is in a position
to supply plans and specifications for
silos and also render expert supervi
sion in the construction of these silos,
provided application is'received in am
pie time At this season of the year
farmers should turn their attention u
the planting of silage crops. Circular;
have been prepared at the College gn

ject I

You’ve often heard about that man who “said nothing
and sawed wood.’’ He didn’t expect to saw a whole cord at
once.
He didn’t expect to make a whole fortune at once. But he
began with a little deposit in the bank and piled up a fortune
almost before he knew it.
Look at the men today who said nothing and “sawed
wood’’ a few years ago.
John D. Reckefeller was one of them. You can do the same.
