THE TURNING POINT In many a business man’s career has been a good piece of advertising—It bridged the gulf between failure and success. But such advertising is not carelessly done—even brilliant ideas go for nothing if they are not expressed.

Put it this way: Raise big food crops. Give them first consider¬ ation. Then with the surplus land and labor available on the farm# raise cotton. That schedule is self regulat¬ ing and self adjusting, and works to advantage in two distinct ways. In the first place, it sup plies the farm with everythin? needed by the animals that are a part of its equipment. It pro¬ vides hay, fodder, corn, oats and peas for horses and cattle and ground peas and other fattening things for hogs. It fills the smokehouse with hams and sides and the pantry with lard, syrup, hominy, meal, eggs and butter. It makes the farmer independent of trusts and that mysterious and fickle bug-bear, the money market. It makes the farm the best spot on the top side of earth and the farmer the most content¬ ed of men. And it works blessings in an ' other direction by keeping down the all-cotton craze—a craze \ which has proven ;■ c->rsf> and thiA’hich is recpons h <• lor the de casio<rion within r. •" '■> of before toads of farms in the e> t <-■ The firs'be farmed who rai-e* and Groom,” will not have a sh«r by Judge J. H. Sdibility for c lit- over-production. The limited supply of farm labor in the South places a corresponding limit on the producing capacity of the section, and when the proper at¬ tention is paid to food crops and live stock theie is sure to be no excessive cotton acreage The sensational heights to which cotton prices have soared this season cannot fail to sorely tempt the ever-optimistic tiller of the soil, but he will commit a most grievoi s error if at this im-., portant juncture he desert the sane principles of diversified farming and again join in the cnase of that ruinous phantom, fheali-cotton crop.—Herald. Croup The peculiar COllgh which in¬ dicates croup, is usually well known to the mothers of croupy children. No time should be lost iu the treatment of it, and for this purpose no medicine has received more universal approval than Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. Do not waste valuable time in experimenting with untried rem idies, no matter how highly they may be recommended, but ‘give this medicine as directed and all sy-npioms of croup will quickly disappear.

We happened to be in a little city the ocher day where there was a baseball game between uni¬ versity clubs. The visiting club and the not small body of “root¬ ers” that accompanied it regis¬ tered at the principal hotel of the place, and their actions, their posing, their bad manners, their swaggering, their beer guzzling and cigarette smoking disgusted all thoughtful onlookers. We have seen so much of this for several years, that we are more than ever of the opinion that our young men are not being well ed¬ ucated. Students properly train¬ ed are gentlemanly, and tempor ate, and moral at home and abroad. “By their fruits ye shall know them,” and such fruits indicate either bad system or incompetent university presi¬ dents and professors.—Exchange.
