Positive Proof That Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound Relieves
Suffering.
Bridgeton,N.J.—“I cannot speak too
highly of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegeta¬
ble Compound for
inflammation and
other weaknesses. I
was very irregular
and would have ter¬
rible pains so that I
could hardly take a
step. Sometimes I
would be so misera¬
ble that I could not
sweep a room. I
doctored part of the
time but felt no
ham’s change. I later took Lydia E. Pink¬
felt change Vegetable for the Compound and soon
a better. I took it
until I was in good healthy condition.
I recommend the Pinkham remedies to
all women as I have used them with such
good results.’’--Mrs. Harmony Milford T. Cum¬
mings, 322 St., Penn’s Grove,
N. J.
Such testimony should be accepted by
nil women as convincing evidence of
the excellence of Lydia E. Pinkham’s

painful periods, nervousness
and kindred ailments.

30-CEHT MINIMUM
FIXED FOR COTTON
U. S. PRICE-FIXING OPPOSED BY
SOUTHERN PLANTERS—WANT
FEDERAL MARKET BOARD
PLANTERS HOLD CONVENTION
Delegates From Ten Southern States
| Agree On Price At Convention
Held In New Orleans
New Orleans.—A price of 30 cents
a pound to the farmer was agreed
upon at a meeting here of men inter¬
ested in marketing and growing of
cotton in ten Southern states as being
j i justified by the present -selling prices
of manufactured cotton products. The
price was suggested in an amendment
to a resolution adopted just previously
which declared against price regula¬
tion of cotton by congress or delegat¬
ing of this authority to any other
body.
Allhough the amendment, introduc¬
ed by L. B. Jackson, director of the
Georgia bureau of markets, met with
some little opposition, it was recog¬
nized as a compromise measure and
was almost unanimously adopted. Un¬
successful efforts to have the amend¬
ment read 35 instead of 30 cents were
made by E. W. Dabbs of Maysviiie,
S. C. W. B. Yeary of Farmers villa,
Texas, and Peter Radford of Austin,
Texas, led the movement to secure a
30-eent minimum.
The Georgia delegation, headed by
J. J. Brown, agricultural commissioner
of that state, opposed federal fixing of
the price of cotton and urged instead j
tiie creation of an official marketing
board through which to obtain a cor
reel estimate of a fair and equitable ;
price.

! GRADE OF GENERAL
! WILL BE REVIVED
FOR JOHN J. PERSHING
War Departmet Says Early Promotion
Is Necessary—Only Four Men
Have Borne This Title
Washington.—Revival of the grade
of full general is planned by the war
department to provide suitable rank
for.Major General John J. Pershing,
commanding the American expedition¬
ary force in France.
It was learned here that Secretary
Baker already has submitted the de¬
partment's program, which includes
provision for (lie title of general to
be held by the officer serving as chief
of staff and the making of several
lieutenant general to command corps
under General Pershing to the senate
military committee and that legisla¬
tion carrying It into effect is to be
pressed for prompt passage when con¬
gress reconvenes in December.
Only four American officers have
borne the title of general—-Washing¬
ton, Grant, Sherman and Sheridan —
and only a few have been lieutenant
generals. Since General Sheridan died
in 1888 the rank of general has been
extinct. No provision for a lieutenant
general on the active list has been
made since Lieutenant General John
G. Bates, retired in 1900. though there
are three officers of that grade now
on the retired list—General Nelson A.
Miles. General Samuel B. M. Young
and General Bates.
BRITISH GOODS BARRED
TO EUROPEAN NEUTRALS
Hereafter Practically Nothing Can Be
Shipped To Scandinavia And
Holland
London.— The Gazette prints a proc
tarnation prohibiting the exportation
to Sweden, Norway, Denmark and the
Netherlands of all articles except
printed matter of all descriptions and
personal effects accompanied by their
owners. Although heretofore exports
to Holland and Scandinavia have been
under strict supervision by the Brit¬
ish authorities, the new proclamation
doubtless means that these countries
now will suffer more poignantly than
ever for the necessities of which they
have been short since the American
embargo went into effect.
12,000,000 Bales Is Latest Forecast
September Washington.- Deterioration during j
over almost the entire cot- j j
ion belt caused a loss of 452,000 bales
in the prospective production of cot¬
ton, 047.000 and equivalent leaves the 1917 crop as 12.- j |
500-pound bales.
The department of agriculture in its i
final condition report of the season
announced a decline of 7.4 points in
cotton condition during the month,
caused principally by boll worms and :
weevils. Fool weather, drouth, shed¬
ding. wilt, blight, lack of potash in
fertilizer caused damage to crops. j
Third Draft Quota Moving To Camps
Washington.—The third contingent 1
of national army is moving to the six¬
teen cantonments where approximate¬
ly one-half of the 687,000 selected men
called out by the president already
have been mobilized. Quotas now
ready to leave home vary greatly,
ranging from. 17 to 40 per cent of the
full state quota, with a general aver¬
age of between 20 and 25 per cent.
Modification of previous quota plans
was necessary because of the condi¬
tions at the cantonments and the avail¬
ability of equipment.

Lawrencevilie. — Here is another
story to add to tbe rapidly growing
string of stories of Georgia farmers’
successes in the good year 1917. l>.
E. Elrod, who rents a small place near
Lawrencevilie, Gwinnett county, with
one heipt r and one horse, this year
has cleared nearly three thousand dol¬
lars.
Macon.—Fire, which broke out late
'at night and gutted the new ware¬
house of the National Milling company
at Fifth and Ocinulgce streets, causing
a loss of approximately twenty thou¬
sand dollars. The same warehouse
was burned just a year ago and*had
only recently been reconstructed. The
warehouse was filled with foodstuffs.
Atlanta,—'The adjutant general’s of¬
fice Has mailed to the local and district
exemption boards of Georgia checks
from the federal government covering
their services since last June. U was
announced at the adjutant general’s
office that all checks must be mailed
and none delivered in person. The
total payment will probably amount
to more than $50,000.
Atlanta.—W. C. Caraway of the At¬
lanta Typographical Union was elect¬
ed to represent Atlanta aw a delegate
to the annual convention of the Atner
ican Federation of Labor, to be held
in Buffalo in November at a meeting
of the Atlanta Federation of Labor.
Mr. Caraway is a brilliant young
Georgian and will be heard front on
rite floors of the federation.

Walter .1. Preston and Capt. William
S. Coburn, officers of the 122nd Infan¬
try (Fifth Georgia), who were refiev
ed of their commands on September
4, by orders originating with the south¬
eastern department at Charleston,
have been reinstated in command of
their respective organizations by spe¬
cial order of Brig. Gen. J. L. Hayden,
commanding the thirty-first division.
Atlanta. -Every minister in Georgia
will be asked to devote his morning
sermon on October 21 to a plea for
food conservation. The Evangelical
Ministers’ association of Atlanta, fol¬
lowing an address hv John Wood of
Washington, associate director of the
campaign, indorsed the movement,
pledged its support in every way pos¬
sible and promised to call attention of
congregations on October 21 to the
importance of conserving food.

Fort Gaines. McRae Brothers of

Hereford heifers. They were placed
on their large stock farm on the river,
where they now have over two hun¬
dred head of cattle. These cows come
from the west and are the best beef
type animal that can be grown. They
will be mixed with the native cows to
some extent, as it is said that the cross
does well for beef purposes.
Atlanta.—Treasury officials announc¬
ed the apportionment of the second
Liberty bond issue, to be offered among
the various federal reserve districts of
the country. Virtually two-thirds of
tiie loan is expected to be raised by
the New York, Boston. Cleveland and
Chicago districts, with one-half appor¬
tioned to the first three named dis¬
tricts. The minimum apportioned to
the Atlanta district is eighty million
dollars.
Valdosta.—Indications are that a
considerable acreage of wheat will be
planted in Lowndes county this win¬
ter. None of tiie farmers are likely
to put in wheat to tlte exclusion of
other winter grain crops, but a large
number of them are expected to plant
from two to five acres each. Much of
the land in the county is well adapted
to wheat-growing, but heretofore prac¬
tically none has been raised in this
section. The fixing of $2.20 a bushel
as the minimum price for wheat and
the consequent high price of flour has
induced the farmers to try the crop
this winter.
