Howard Campaign Committee MORE RAIN IS * BADLY NEEDED IN THIS SECTION Long Drouth Has Af fected Crops, Some Are Maturing Before Reaching Full Growth The showers which fell during the past week have not overcome one of the most disastrous druth ever known in this section, according to stories brought to Cartersville Wed nesday by prominent farmers residing in various parts of the County. * All kinds of crops were in good shape up to about two weeks ago, but the con tinued drouth has hindered their growth considerably. Very early corn was injured by a dry spell preceding the present one, but late corn still had a line chance. The second, and by far the moil serious drouth, is literally burning up the late corn, as well as the late forage crops of all kinds. Late corn is twisting like shoe strings, and early corn fields look as if they w r ould flame at the strike of a match. It is generally believed that cotton will stand extremely hot and dry weather, but that crop, too. is deterior ation at an alarming rate. Rust and teh red spider are working on it heavily in many sections of northern Georgia and Alabama, and | some farmers express the opinion that THe TRIBUNE-NEWS, CARTERSVILLE, GEORGIA, AUGUST 29, 1313 the extremely hot, dry weather is fav orable to their work of destruction. Late potatoes and garden vegetables are beyond repair. All crops which ma ture and are harvested early in the season were good, but season is winding up badly. Ifuring the past two weeks freakish rains fell in lim ited areas here and there and some low and fertile lands have corn that it still coming. An Old Time Medicine Improved. Laxanodline is based on the private prescription of Dr. It. B. Moore of Gwinette Cos., Ga„ in which there has been an improvement made by substi tuting a distilled extract of mandrake for the common water extract, which separates the properties that act on the liver from teh irritating resin that in jure the stomach. Laxondine is a combination of liver medicine with tonic and healing medicine, and is far superior to other liver preparations for liver, stomach and bow r el troubles.

PHYSICIANS OF COUNTY EXPECTED TO VOLUNTEER Dr. R. E. Wilson, Chair man, Attended Meet ing of Representatives From Every Section of State in Atlanta Last Thursday. Dr. R. E. Wilson, representing the physicians of Bartow County, attend ed a meeting in Atlanta last week which was called by the Chairman of the Council of Defense. The purpose of this meeting was to ascertain the attitude of physicians toward the possibility of a selective service being inaugurated for them similar to that now in force in connection with the raising of a National Army. It is the desire of the Government that as many physicians as possible be secured for war work. On the other hand, it is realized by those in charge of the medical branches that the civi lian population must be given atten tion, as well as colleges and hospitals where they train medical men, for it is as much in demand and doctors as necessary as ever before. Medical men, through their representatives as sembled at the Atlanta meeting, pledg ed their heartiest co-operation to the Government in the present crisis and to the men who have gone to work where they are most needed. Dr. Wilson is Chairman of the Med ical Department of the Council of Na tional Defense for Bartow County, and Dr. R. E. Adair is iVce Chairman or representative. It is the wish of these officers that physicians in the county register their names with them at once, stating whether or not they will volunteer for war services. It is possible they will never be asked to leave their present practices. On the other hand, they may be sent to another portion of the state where physicians are badly need ed. In one county, for instance, one of the delegates at the meeting in Atlanta last Friday told his hearers there was only one physician in his county and that he was literally being run to death, with no relief in A Regular Trading Place Many people have no regular trad ing place for drugs. They get the idea that the hanaiest place, or any place will do. But drug stores differ, as they always have, while the ne cessity of securing reliable goods and service are still the same. We endeavor to conduct the kind of a drug store that will win the old kind of confidence and friendly relations. We are equipped to give you superior ser vice and we know that every day through out the present year we can please you when drugs or other drugstore goods are needed. “Let Us Be Your Eamily Druggist” Gilreath-Champion Drug Cos. sight unless the Council of Defense came to his rescue and sent additional aid to his countj. It should be understood, however, that the principal reason for the regis tration of physicians is to ascertain exactly how many can be counted upon by the War Department for actual service, either in hospitals in this country or for over seas duty. Too much importance can not be laid upon this phase of war preparations and Dr. Wilson earnestly urges every physic ian in the county to communicate with him at once and definitely state what he expects to^o. Before the doctors began entering the service a tabulation showed there were 13 practicing physicians in Car tersville, 6 at Adairsville, 4 at Kings ston, 3 at White, one at Pine Log, one at Emerson, 3at Taylorsville, 3at Stilesboro, 3 at Euharlee and 2 in the Stamp Creek District.

Tomlinson, who lives near Car 'tersville, Wednesday loaded about two cars of what is termed “scrap ore” which he gathered up along the sidings where miners for several months past have loaded their ore. At one point -this scrap ore had made such a heap that it was fast becoming dangerous for cars to pass. Mr. Tomlinson, there fore, will not only render a service by clearing the tracks, but will realize, al so, a neat sum as a result of his effort to save as much scrap ore as possible. Mr. Allen L.

NEW RULINGS ON FLOUR SALES ARE ANNOUNCED Old Regulations Re scinded, Effective Sep tember Ist -80 Per Cent Wheat Flour is the New Basis. To the People of Bartow County: On and after Sept. Ist, regulations heretofore governing 'the sale and consumption of flour are rescinded. It will not be necessary after this date for farmers to obtain flour cards Any and all persons may use flour upon a a basis of 80 per cent. You are expected to purchase four pounds of flour and one pound of sub stitute. The substitutes are barley or corn flour or rye flour. Any person desiring, may purchase not in excess of a sixty days supply. All merchants are required to keep on hand the necessary substitutes to go with every sale, and all persons are required to obtain substitutes when purchasing flour upon the basis of one pound to four pounds of flour. Merchants are not required to make reports of sales as heretofore. No person must obtain in excess of a sixty day supply of flour under any pretense. It will be a violation to have on hand in excess of a sixty day sup ply. The response of the American peo ple to the food regulations as promulg ated by the Food NAdministration has been wonderful. That everyone will conform to the new regulations, goes without question. It is expected that the sugar regula tions now in effect, be strictly adhered to, and just as quickly as the supply is in sight, they will also be modified. Sacrifice and observance of all Gov ernment laws and regulations is turn ing the tide, and will win the war quickly. Altho the regulations are greatly modified, everyone is urged to econ omize and conserve to the utmost. If we will do this it may not become nec essary to again lower the limit on the consumption of flour. Let no person hoard away any food stuff. Buy only what you must have, just as you may need it, and save ev erything possible. Yours truly, PAUL GILREATH, County Food Administrator. Wanted=Second hand grain bags in good condition-W.H.
