HIGH PRICE COTTON
 HURT THE FARMERS
LauderdaIe County Farmer Says Conditions Are Worse
 On That Account

Florence, April 16.-(Special.) )-Cotton planting has begun in the county and the largest acreage ever known will be plant ed The weather has been idal the past ten days for farm work, which is two weeks behind last year on account of the late season. Capt. J. T. Reeder of Smithsonia, one of the largest land own CTS and merchants in the county, said to- day that the high prices last year had demoralized the people and it invariably followed that farmers went in debt on high prices and paid out on 5-cent cotton. He expressed the opinion that high prices in the end were bad for the cotton planters. The corn crop will be large this year, as many farmers have been buying corn all winter for feeding and also for seed this spring. The surplus from high priced cotton has more than been spent for corn, hay, meat, flour and other com nodes and the county is poorer at pres ent than when low prices prevailed.
 The wheat crop of the county is look ing better than was expected after the open winter. The acreage is larger this year than in former years and a new flour mill is planned for the Shoal creek neighborhood by John D. Richardson, a saw mill man and planter.

 Mrs. Clarke Hunt, an aged lady, died very suddenly today at her home in Scottsboro of heart failure. She was the widow of Hon. Clabe Hunt, deceased. She was a most estimable Christian woman and leaves large circle of relatives and friends to mourn her death.
 Through the exertion of s. s. Broadus and a number of wealthy citizens of this county the requisite amount of money has been raised to erect a cotton mill at Ste venson. this county, at an early day. The Stevenson Land Company has donated three acres of land for the site. It will be known as the Broadus cotton mills.
 MT. Ames, of near Henegar, was here last week. He has an Angora goat farm, the only industry of that kind in this part of the country. He now has about 800 head of these full blood goats, and ex- poets to increase his herd to thousand this year. He sells the wool at 75 cents a pound and cannot supply the demand.

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
GIVE PERFECT DIGESTION, SOUND
 SLEEP, STRONG NERVES.
A Popular Remedy for Dyspepsia Which Has Made Many Remark
 ahle Glree

| The spring of the year is the time for 1 blood purifiers. It is the season when we 1 think we must dose ourselves with sarsa-
 parfllas, bitters and the endless list of so-caled blood purifiers and nerve tonics As a matter of fact, there is but one possible way in which to purify the blood, and that is through the stomach and bowels.
 Pure blood results. from wholesome food thoroughly digested. Impure blood re- suits from poor digestion and assimila- tion. When the stomach refuses to work properly the food remains too long time, fermenting. forming gases, shown by sour, bitter taste in the mouth. bloating. and belching of gas, and distress and discomfort generally. Poor blood, weak nerves. slceplessness and general don't care feeling can always be traced to im- perfect digestion.
 This Is the reason why Stuart's Dys- pepisa Tablets are superior to all other spring medicines and blood purifiers. They give perfect digestion, the food does not lie in the stomach for hours. They give a vigorous appetite, sound sleep, strong nerves, and wholesome food well digested makes pure blood, and In no oth- CT way can the blood be purified. The idea that a medicine in itself, will purify the blood when the stomach and diges- tive organs are out of order is nonsense. otuartS DySDepSla IaDietS are used Dy thousands in preference to ''bitters,' 'af- ter dinner pills and ''blood purifiers" because they remove the cause of the im- pure blood, and you do not have to take them forever to get results. Dyspepsia Is an obstinate disease to cure, and a rem edy must be designed especially for 1t and nothing else. Cure-alls will not cure dyspepsia
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not claimed to cure everything or anything except Dyspepsia and stomach troubles, and for that 1t stands alone among patent medicines. Any one suffering from any trouble with their digestion will find these tablets will give immediate relief and a permanent cure.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are pre- pared by the F. A. Stuart Co. of Mar shall. Mich., and sold by druggists every where at 50 cents per package No dieting nor change of habits is requiredi-- they digest the food. f
