In Memorlam.

This tribute is written in memory
of Webb and Paul Campbell, who
departed this life on July 9, 1908 and
January 20, 1904, respectively.
These two young men were all that
was good and noble. Not to have
seen them and known them is a de-
privation hardly to be estimated
Always cherry, kind and good, these
young men won friends wherever
they went. Never had father and
mother two nobler sons. In them all
that was pure and lofty in mind
found lodgment. Dignitied without
presumption, affable without fa-
miliarity, they united all those
charms that made them the, idol OF
their homes and friends, and for
them we are all in tears standing be-
side their graves. All who have
ever seen them mourn in common
bereavement. May this unity OF
grief in the season of withered
leaves and wintry snow, which death
ushers in, bloom and blossom, like
the distant coming of spring, into
flowers of peace and love in that
land where there is no sorrow, pain
or care. Nm

Plant Corn, Southern Farmers.

A few days ago a leading railroad
officer, discussing the prospects of
freight traffic, stated that in his ter
ritory in the central South the roads
would be taxed to their utmost ca
pacity to handle fertilizers for cotton,
so great were the preparations now
being made to increase the cotton
acreage. "The farmers" said he,
care going to abandon corn this year
and concentrate on cotton, and then
next winter we will have an immense
corn traffic from the West" Ac-
cording to his view, this meant a
great traffic hauling cotton out and
a great traffic hauling corn in, and,
therefore, the change was a matter
for congratulation. This is short
sighted policy, for, while temporarily
it means an increase in railroad
traffic, it is not for the best interests
nor the permanent prosperity of the
South. 1t would be serious mis-
take for the farmers of the South to
lessen their attention TO corn and
other food stuffs. The progress
made during the last few years should
be maintained and the South be
made wholly independent in it's food
supplies for man and beast. The
terrific slump in cotton last week
proves how quickly prices can at
times be beat down, and with a very
heavy increase in acreage as an ex-
cuse it might be possible for specu-
lative manipulation to force cotton
below a remunerative profit to the
grower. The intrinsic strength of
the situation should enable the South
for some years to come to secure
profitable prices for its cotton, but if
Southern farmers concentrate all
their attention on cotton, and neg
lect diversified agriculture they will
kill the goose that is now laying

Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scott'sE sEmulsionisthemo
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
Scott's Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
Scott's Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in Scott's Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has special
action on the diseased lungs.
