THE FLOODS.

The late wet weather will bring with
it a plentiful crop of rheumatism,
bronchitis, catarrh, pneumonia, pleurl-
sy, and other maladies that attack the
throat and lungs and the kidneys. A
cold that settles upon the kidneys and
is neglected is the parent of rheuma-
tism, pneumonia, pleuriSy, and a vast
number of other maladieS. All these
can be cured with REDS GERMAN
COUGH AND KIDNEY CURE. This
great remedy contains nopoison, and
is perfectly safe even in the hands of
the inexperienced. 1t will cure any
ma1ady that comes from cold. Every
cold affects all of the excretory organs
particularly the lungs and the kidneys.
REDS GERMAN COUGH AND
KIDNEY CURE recognizes this fact
and treats the system accordingly. 1t is
the only cough remedy on the market
that does. Ask your dealer for it and do
not let him give you anything else, for
nothing else Wilde the work. Thes small
bottles are Is Cts, the large ones Scots.

Behind the Times.

Farming by machinery is but little
known in the Atlantic states of the
south, for the reason that we have but
small areas of land where it is practi-
cable to use the improved implements
necessary in making a success of such
methods. We have some large planta-
tons where all the methods known in
the west could be practiced; but the
planters have not availed themselves
of the advantages offered by machin-
cry, for two good reasons. There are
but few places in the south where the
improved machinery is kept on sale, or
where the practical operations of this
machinery can be seen, as inducement
to its general use. Few planters care
to invest large sums In anything until
they have seen with their own eyes the
practical utility of the investment. A
first-class machine that does first-class
work will always sell itself wherever it
is seen and needed. A wide-awal1e and
enterprising farmer who has travelled
around and learned the advantages of
new methods, and who adapts these
new methods on his own farm, is al
ways an educator of high value in his
community among people who have not
been able to avail themselves of the fa-
cilities of obtaining the knowledge and
experience possessed by the neighbor.
The poverty of our people generally
also has kept them from the purchase
of anything except those implements
called for by dire MISREPRESENTATION
