TURIN.
Mr. John Carmical had the misfor
tune to lose his fine buggy animal one
day hist week. To lose a horse at this
season is a loss indeed, and we sympa
thize with Mr. Carmical. For the good
of work animals we suggest that their
feed he moistened in mild salt water
before putting it in the trough. This
will soften the feed and render it more
easily digested. At this season of the
year work sleek eat hurriedly, and, if
the feed be corn, sometimes results in
colic. If the above suggestion is car
ried out it will not only he best for the
animal, hut amount to a saving of
about one-third in tho quantity of feed
required. Stock thus fed, and not
allowed to drink too much cold water
at a time, will fatten and preserve their
teeth down to old uge. Another sug
gestion in this connection: During hot
weather work stock that become over
heated should he given a short rest be
fore being fed, in order that the nerv
ous system may be soothed and quieted
before taking food into the stomach.
Guano dealers at this place Bay that
fertilizer sales up to date have been
about one-fourth the quantity sold as
compared with sales to the same date
last year. If this decrease in the use
of fertilizers prevails throughout the
cotton belt, it is inevitable that there
will he a material reduction in the
quantity of cotton produced this year.
We were talking with one of our good
farmers a few days since, and he stated
that he would not plant one seed of
cotton this year, but would devote his
acreage to other crops. And that
farmer will probably he better off next
fall than the farmer who puts his
usual acreage in cotton. Cotton as a
money crop has its allurements, but
the farmer who raises cotton to pay
for supplies with which to make cotton
cannot, prosper. The farmer who raises
food crops and meat at home is the one
who succeeds.

TEN WEEKS IN BED-EMINENT
, PHYSICIANS FAILED—WON
DERFUL RECOVERY.
I wish to inform you of the great
benefit I have deiived from the use of
Swamp-Root. I had been a sufferer
for more than twenty years from kid
ney and liver trouble and was almost
constantly treated by the most emi
nent physicians, who could only give me
temporary relief. 1 had been in bed
ten weeks when I began the me of
Swamp-Root. Inside of twenty-four
hours I could see that 1 had been great
ly benefited. I continued to use Swamp-
Root until 1 had used several bottles,
when l really felt that my old trouble
was completely cured, and I am posi
tive that any person suffering with kid
ney or liver trouble can be cured by
the use of this preparation.
I am now in the best of health, bet
ter than I have been for ten years or
more. I do not know how to express
myself as strongly as 1 desire, in favor
of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, as I am
sure that it saved my life and that my
good health is due entirely to this
great remedy. 1 heartily recommend
it to every sufferer and am confident |
they can be benefited as 1 have been,
it is a pleasure for me. gentlemen, to
hand you this recommendation.
