How to Increase the Yield of Fruit
Increased fruit crops are more often the result of good manage
ment than of good luck. Fruit trees and fruit plants need a liberal
supply of
Virginia- Carolina
Fertilizers
The trees absorb plant foods —that is, nitrogen, phosphoric acid
and potash—from the soil just the same as any other crop. Experi
ence has shown this over and over again. This truth has become so
well recognized that “ return to the land what the tree removes if you
would expect the best results ” has become an axiom with the best
growers.
Apple, pear, peach, orange and other fruit trees soon respond to
careful fertilization. But be sure to use the best fertilizers.
“ I made a test with other companies’ fertilizers,” says Mr. H. O.
Lowry, of Manatee County, Fla., “and yours proved to be the best.
The yield where I used Virginia-Carolina Fertilizer, was just twice as
much as where the other two companies’ fertilizer was used.”
Hundreds of users say Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers are cheapest
because of their good qualities—give better satisfaction and quicker
results.
Many facts of great interest and value to fruit growers are pub
lished in the new 1909 Farmers’ Year Book, a copy of which will be
sent free on application to any of our sales offices.

California fine. It is a nice coun
try for fruit and hay. We have

rained more than common. This
is a good climate. My wife was
in very bad health when I
brought her to this country. She
don’t look like the same woman.
The people here have no regard
for the Sabbath day. We have

CAN CONSUMPTION BE CURE!
National Association Warns
Against Use of Quack
Remedies
In view of the constant agita
tion and misrepresentation with
regard to the treatment of con
sumption, the National Associa
tion for the Study and Preven
tion of Tuberculosis has issued a
statement in which it states that
the only sure cure for this dis
ease is fresh air, rest and whole
some food.
Hardly a week passes without
some quack “doctor” or “emi
nent specialist,” informing the
publie that he has at last discover
ul the ivie cure for tuberculosis.
After examining every one of
these so-called cures, several
hundred in number, the Nation
al Association states that, one
and all, they are misrepresentions
or fakes.
The so-called “cures” are
divided into two general classes.
The first class of “cures” in
cludes the quack remedies and
nostrums with which the public
is being constantly deceived.
These range in kind from “good
whiskey” to pig’s blood or ultra
violet rays. Some few of them,
for instance are cod-liver oil, linn
dust, malt extract, goat’s meat,
corn oil, clabbered milk, vegetabl
teas, and numerous inhalations of
supposed germicides, besides a
large number of well-known pat
ent and proprietary medicines am
numerous disinfectants. None
of these are cures for consump
tion. They are rather for the mo
part of dangerous character and
patients who take them may be
running a serious risk. Consump
tion is caused by a germ which
destroys portions of the lungs or
other affected tissues. No drugs
or medicines inhaled gas, or home
made remedies can, by any means
kill the germ or close up the
cavity in the lungs, as is so often
claimed for these specified. Ncith
er is it possible to inhale a suffi
ciently strong germicide to kill
the consumption germ. Such an
inhalation would kill the patient
before it would kill the germ.
Another class of “cures” for
consumption, by which many
people are deceived, includes the
secret remedies advertised by un
scrupulous ‘ ‘ doctors ” and “ pro
fessors” at heads of so-called “in
stitutes.” These people advertise
that they can cure consumption
at home by means of remedies
which are secret and known only
to them, or sometimes they adver
tise they can cure consumption
at the “institutes” through some
secret course of treatment. For
instance, a “professor” out in
Kansas conducts an “institute''
where he claims he has a drug
which will surely cure consump
tion. A “doctor” in Minnesota
says he has a new remedy which
lie himself will exploit for the
benefit of humanity. A Colora
do specialist has advertised a new
method of curing the disease. A
St. Louis druggist claims to have
found how to “dynamite” tu
berculosis germs. An “institute’
in a western state has been open
ed recently, which pretends to
cure consumption, without resort
to fresh air treatment, largely by
means of massage, osteopathic
manipulations and some secret
methods. Again the National
Association asserts that the very
fact of secrecy in these cases
tends to discredit the so-called
cure. No responsible physician
will find a cure for disease and
refuse to make it known because
of pecuniary motives.
These two classes of “cures
are not cures at all. Consump
tion is a curable disease, however
and in some places more than 75
per cent of the patients under
treatment have been restored to
health. The essentials for the
cure of consumption are rest,
fresh air and wholesome food.
C. R. Kluger, the Jeweler, 1060 Vir
ginia Ave. Indianapolis, Ind. writs: “I
was so woak from kidney trouble that
I could hardly walk a hundred feet.
Four bottles of Foley’s Kidney Rem
edy cleared my complexion, cured my
backache and the irregularities dis
appeared, and I can now attend to
business every day, and recommend
Foley’s Kidney Remedy to all suffer
ers, as It cured me after the doctors
and other remedies had failed.”

Compensation
The all absorbing question
agitating the temperance people
of England is the demand of the
liquor dealers for|eompensation in
cases where the magistrates re
fuse to renew licenses. The Rev.
G. Armstrong, a Wesleyan Metho
dist preacher of England, in an
able article printed in the Meth
odist Temperance Magazine turns
the tables upon the liquor men
when he says. “Justice demands
that the publican should eompen
sate|the state for the unspeakable
damages his trade has inflicted
upon it.”
The following are some of the
items of the bill which he says
the|nation might fairly lay agains'
the traffic:
Item 1 —Damages for the de
terioration of property in the
neighborhood of the license.
Item 2—Compensation to employ
ers for all that they’ lose on Mon
days, ami at other times, through
the absence of tipping workmen
from their work.
Item 3—Compensation to empk
ers for muddle-headed work done
by’ boozy workmen.
Item 4—The cost of the support
pauper-lunatics.
of all drink produced paupers and
Item s—The cost of policemen,
judges, prisons and criminal pro
cedure, as far as they are due to
drink.
Item 6—-Compensation to fami
lies for death and sickness of
members of the family caused by
drink.
Item 7—Damages for all drink
caused acidents, shipwrecks and
the like.
Item B—Damages for all skill
ed workmen whose education has
been costly to the|community and
who have not given the number o
years service in return that, might
have been expected from them, ii
consequence of their premature
death through alcohol.
If the state allows this traf
fic which has acquired such swol
len wealth by’ means of an un
earned increment to go scot free
with what it has got, the trade
ought to consider that it has beer
treated with merciful magnanim
ity.
Does the liquor traffic clamor
for justice? It had better tak<
care how it utters that prayer,
lest God should answer it! What
does the law of God say is jus
tice for the ox that gored and tin
owner who kept it. Does the li
quor traffic ask for justice? Ther
justice let it be. Justice for bro
ken hearts, for desolated homes,
for commercial disaster, for the
manufacture of paupers, lunatics,
incapables and criminals. Jus
tice for myriads of little children
perishing in hunger and squal
or, and reared in filth, disease
and moral corruption, to be the
scourge of society. Does the Ii
quor traffic claim its due compel)
sation? What is it? The curse
of the righteous God, whose ill
termost wrath rests upon all sys
tems that make traffic of tin
manhood which is so precious in
His sight that lie has redeemed
it with the blood of His own Son.

A Common Cold
We claim that if catching cold
could be avoided some of the most
dangerous and fatal diseases owuld
never be heard of. A cold often forms
a culture bed for germs of Infectious
diseases. Consumption, pneumonia,
diptherla and Scarlet fever, four of
the most dangerous and fatal disease:
are of this class. The culture bed
formed by the cold favors the devel
opment of the germs of these diseas
es, that would not otherwise find lod
gement. There Is little danger,
however of any of these diseases be
ing contracted when a good expector
ant cough remedy like Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy is used. It cleans out
these culture beds that favor the de
velopmet of the germs o fthese dis
eases. That is why this remedy has
proved so universally successful In
preventing pneumonia.
It not only cures your cold quickly,
but minimizes the risk of contracting
these dangerous diseases. For sale

IN MEMORY
On September 28th, 1908, the
death angel crept into our home
and placed his hand on Charlie
Gayler and claimed as his own.
Charlie had been sick but a
short time with fever. All that
loving cure and physicians could
was done but all in vain. God
needed him more than we., and
the time will come when we can
clasp his hand on Ihe other side.
He was the dearest on earth
to me. He was always happy ami
wore a bright smile. 1 feel that
my best friend is gone. When his
baby was laid to rest he said to
me: “Darling, it wont be long
till I will follow it.” And it wa.s
only a short time till he was
laid by its side beneath Hie sod.
But I can praise God for the
