Making More Money Out of
Cotton Crops
is merely a question of using enough of the right
kind of fertilizers.
© - - e
Virginia-Carolina
Fertilizers
are the right kind.
The cotton plant cannot feed on barren land. Study
your soil. Find out what it lacks. Then apply the
necessary fertilization and the results will surprise you.
See what Mr, W, C, Hays of Smith Station, Ala., did. He says:
“I planted about 30 acres of some ‘gray sandy land’ that had been in
cultivation for over 20 years, and used 300 pounds of Virginia-Caro
lina Fertilizers per acre, and I expect to gather 30 bales from
the 30 acres.”’ This is why we say it is the right kind,. We have
hundreds of letters like this, and even stronger, in praise of Virginia-
Carolina Fertilizer for cotton.

from your fertilizer dealer, or write our nearest sales office and a copy
will be sent you free. It contains pictures of the capitols of all the

Egquipment
of the California Fig Syrup Co. and the
scientific attainments of its chemists have
rendered possible the production of Syrup
of Figs and Elixir of Senna, in all of its
excellence, by obtaining the pure medic
inal principles of plants known to act most
beneficially and combining them most
skillfully, in the right proportions, with
its wholesome and rcfreshing Syrup of
California Figs. ‘
As there is only one genuine Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of Senna and as the gen
uine is manufactured by an original
method known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, it is always necessary to buy the
genuine to get its beneficial efiects.
A knowledge of the above facts enables
one to decline imitations or to return them
if, upon viewing the package, the full name
of the California Fig Syrup Co. is not found
printed on the front thereof

The Farmer Discovers the 'Phone.
It is becoming apparent to the
farmer that the telephone is not an
expense as he has hitherto believed,
but a saving, perhaps of a life in ill
ness, perhaps of help when flood or
fire comes or something else.
The great- benefits of a telephone
to a farming community can hardly
be exaggerated.
It is one of the greatest time sav
ers ever invented.
Modern business methods would
become antique without its use.
It enlivens social intercourse and
makes neighbors of and cements
friendship hetween families living
miles apart.
A farmer with a ’phone does not
have to go to the nearest market to
find the price of various agricultural
products. Neither is it necessary for
him to blindly send his products to
market only to find prices at a low
level.
~ To the farmer’s wife the ’phone is
a friend that does not fail. The in
convenience of marketing and shop
ping is done away with. To her it is
an all-round necessity as well as an
aid to social enlivenment.
BIG BRIDGE OF CONCRETE.
Designs for Hudson Memorial Struc

Designs for the Hudson Memorial
Bridge show that it is more interest
ing from an engineering standpoint
than any other part of the great
bridge structures of New York city.
It will serve not only as a connect
ing link between New York and Spuy
ten Duyvil, but alo will commemo
mate the. discovery of the Hudson
River by Hendrick Hudson three hun
dred years ago.
The bridge and the approaches will
be about fifteen hundred feet long
with four semi-circular arches of .108
foot span on the Spuyten Duyvil gide,
and three on the New York with an
enormous arch of seven hundred feet
between them. The remarkable fea
ture is that the bridge will be of re
inforced concrete, exceeding in mag
nitude many times any arched bridge
ever built of stone, brick or concrete.
The crown of the main arch will be
185 féet above Spuyten Duyvil Creek,
or 50 feet higher than the floor of the
Brooklyn Bridge above the Kast
River. B

g GOOD CHANGE et
Coffee to Postum. _
The large army of persons who
have found relief from many chronic
ailments by changing from coffee to
Postum as a daily beverage, is grow
ing each day.
It is only a simple question of try
ing it for oneself in order to know the
joy of returning health as realized by
an Ills. young lady. She writes:
“I had been a coffee drinker nearly
all my life and it affected my stomach
—caused insomnia, and I was seldom
without a headache. I had heard
about Postum and how beneficial it
was, so concluded to quit coffee and
try it. :
“1 was delighted with the change.
I can now sleep well and seldom ever
have headache. My stomach has got
ten strong, and I can eat without suf
fering afterwards. I think my whole
system greatly benefited by Postum.
“My brother also suffered from
stomach trouble while he drank cof
fee, but now, since using Postum he
feels so much better he would not go
back to coffee for anything.”

Was Investigated By Ex-Convicts
Says Representative Lovering.
BIG BLACKMAILING SCHEME
Perpetrators of False Statements Tried
to Sell Their Story to the Demo
cratic Compaign Committee.
Washington, D, C.—That Represen
tative Rainey of Illinois got from the
New York World his information re
garding the Panama canal affairs,
which formed the subject of his re
cent speech, and that ex-convicts in
stigated the stories of fraud and cor
ruption pertaining to the acquirement
of title by the United States to the
property, was the charge made in the
house of representatives by Mr. Lov
ering of Massachusetts, “Maybe,” he
said, “the World did not originate all
the scandalous stories it published,
but its columns were public, and we
do know that the World did give cre
dence and circulaticn to them.,”
Mr. Lovering declared that “the
perpetrators of these false statements
are known, and the story of their do
ings reveals a chapter in the history
of blackmailing that is rare in the
annals of crime, These gentlemen,”
he said, “are known; their names are
known; their aliases are krowwu;
their haunts are known, and their
plans are known.”
Last fall, he s&id, an effort was
made to sell the stories to the
democratic campaign committee, and
that certain leaders of that party took
the matter under consideration, but
that they were not used because they
could not be substantiated. He then
charged that for nearly two years pri
or to that time “these same men had
been pursuing Cromwell with the ex
pectation that he would pay them a
large sum of money, varying from ss,
000 to $25,000. They thought he
pay to have these stories suppressed.”
Mr. Lovering declared that those per
sons were always met by Mr. Croum
well with an indignant refusal, “and
the reply that they might do what
they pleased with their stories, for
they were nothing but lies.” Those
same people, he said, finding that Mr.
Cromwell was deeply interested in
Mr. Taft’'s campaign, thought he
would submit to pay something rath
er than have any publicity at that
moment.
While they were not accepted, he
said, members of the democratic par
ty entered into an agreement with.
Mr. Rainey ‘“to exploit the subject
on the flcor of the house. This he has
attempted to do by introducing a res
olution of inquiry.” He charged, how
ever, that Mr. Rainey “singularly
enough,” had taken no steps to bring
about any investigation. *“Has he
fallen down?” he inquired. “Has he
failed to secure his proofs? Have his
informants forsaken him?” He said
that “after these professional black
mailers —the word is known that
many of them were prefessional —
had failed to extract money from any
of these sources they did, in their
desperation, cause them 1o be pub
lished and they appeared in the New
York World.
Mr. Lovering could not say wheth
er The World paid for the stories,
and he stated that whether the gen
tleman from Illincis “got his informa
tion from the New York World, or di
rectly from these .blackmailers does
not matter.”

LINCOLN’S MEMORY HUNGRED.
One Hundredth Birthday of Martyred
. President Was Ceiebrated,
New York City.—~Throughout the
length and breadth of the United
States, hundreds of cities, towns and
hamlets paid tribute to the memory
of Abraham Lincoln on the centen

sands of meetings of various kinds
were held during the day and mil
lions of persons participated.
Chief among the many celebrations
were the exercises attending the lay

building erected by popular subscrip
tion to shelter the little log cabin
which was the early home of Lincoln,
on the Lincoln farm at Hodgenville,
Ky., where the president was bhorn.
The cornerstone was laid by Presi

address, and there were also address
es by Governor Wilson of Kentucky,
ex-Governor Joseph W. Folk of Mis
souri, Secretary of War Luke E.
Wright and General James G. Wil
son.
Ambassador Bryce and William J.
Bryan were the chief speakers at a
Lincoln banquet held at Springfield,
