No Land So Rich That Fertilizer
Cannot Make It Better
You use fertilizers for the profit you get out of them—and the
better the land the more profitably a good feriilizer can be used on it.
Do not imagine because land will produce a fair crop without

that these fertilizers cannot be profitably used on it, or that they were
made only for land too poor to produce without them. If poor land
will show a normal increase when fertilizer is used, good land will
show at least double the increase. Use Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers
to increase the guality, as well as the guantity of the crop—and you
will increase the profits from your land.

Mr. William Fraiser, of Glasburg, La., “and find that it not only pays

them to be as recommended and to give better results than any other
fertilizers that I have ever used.”

Heart Trouble
from Childhood :
“I suffered with my heart from
girlhood; could not sleep on left
side. Eleven bottles -of Dr. Miles’
Heart Remedy removed all these
troubles, and brought complete re
covery.” MRS. H. C. CRUSE,
San Francisco, Calif.
The life of the body is the blood.
It runs on and on, carrying nourish
ment and gathering up impurities as
long as life lasts—the heart makes
it go. When the heart is weak it
cannot do this, and dizzy spells, pal
pitation, short breath, indicate that
it is doing its work imperfectly.
Dr. Miles’ Heart Remedy
strengthens the heart nerves and
muscles, and restores normal action
to the heart. .
The first bottle will benefit; if not,
your druggist will return your money.

Adopted As Result of Conference
of Ten Leading Nations.,
LIST OF CONTRASAND GOODS
American Delegates Are Satisfied the
Code Contains Much Much That Will
Be of Advantage in Time of War.
Wshington, D, C.—The declaration
of principles regarding the law of
maritime war, agreed upcn by the
conference of ten of the principal
maritime nations of the world, held
in. London during the past winter,
and known as the Maritime Confer
ence, have just been made public at
the state department, Probably the
most interesting features from the
American standpoint, are the decla
rations regarding what constitutes
contraband, and what is free of con
traband,
The principle enunciated in the dec
laration are to act as a guide for the
government of international prize
court, to be established at The Hague.
They are regarded as of great im
portance, and mark a decided step
forward in the establishment of a
code for naval warfare. The Ameri
can delegates, as previously reported,
are satisfied the ccde contains much
that will prove of great advantage in
time of war, This is especially the
case with the articles treating of con
traband, exports approximating at this
time $900,000,000 a year, will be af
fected in the event of war, and un
der the head of free contraband ex
ports approximating $400,000,000.
On the question of contraband the
conference adopted three classifica
tions, viz.: Absolutely, conditional and
not contraband.
Absolute contraband includes gen
erally articles and implements of
war, and those that may be used in
war. Conditional contrabend includes
food supplies, fodder and grain, cloth
ing suitable for military use; gold
and silver, coined and in bars, and
paper representing money; airships
and flying machines; fuel, lubricants,
powders and explosives not special
ly designed for war use; barbed wire;
horse shoes and shoeing outfits.
The following articles cannot be de
clared contraband of war:
Raw cotton, raw wool, silk, jute,
flax and hemp and other raw mate
rials of textile industries, as well as
fabrics woven therefrom; oleaginous
nuts and seeds; .copra; india rubber;
re¢sins, gums and lac; hLops; raw
hides, horns, bone and ivory; natu
ral and artificial fertilizers, compris
ing nitrates and phosphates suscepti
ble of use in agriculture; ores, earths,
clays, lime, chalk and stone, includ
ing marble, brick, slate an dtile; chi
naware and glassware; paper and
substances intended solely for their
production; and varnishes, hypochle
rite of lime; soda ash, caustic soda,
sulphate of soda in cakes; ammenia,
sulphate of ammonia and sulphat of
copper; machinery used in manufac
ture: textile industries and printing:
precious stones, fine stones, mother of
pearl, pearls and coral; clocks and
watches, except chronometers; milli
nery and fancy articles; feathers of
all kinds; horsehair and bristles; ar
ticies of furniture and ornament and
office furniture and accessories.
Articel 47 provides that any person
belonging to the armed forces of the
enemy and found on board a neutral
war vessel may be made a prisoner
of war, even though there be nn
ground for seizing the vessel. This
principle conforms to the attitude ta
ken by the United States in the fa
mous Mason and Slidell cases during
the civil war, when these men were
taken from the British steamer Trent,
KILLED WRONG MAN.
Confessed to Murder—Was to Be
" Paid S2OO.
Barnwell, S. C.—As the result of a
startling confession' made by Quit

and said Kennedy had hired him and
Ferdinand Grubbs, who was ‘convict

sery instead. Johnson said he and
Grubbs were to receive S2OO for the
killing. A - v
