From South AfriCa.-NeW Way OF
Using Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy.

Mr.. Arthur Chapman writing
from Durham, Natal, South Afri-

berlain's Cough Remedy is a
cure suitable for old and young,
[ pen you the following: A neigh
Der of mine had a child just over
two months old. It had very
bad cough and the parents did
not know what to give it. I sug-
gested that if they would get a
bottle Of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and put some upon the
dummy teat the baby was suck
ing it would no doubt cure the
child. This they did and brought
about a quick relief and cured
the baby" This remedy is for
sale by Barker's Drug store.

CASE is A
HARD ONE
Fire This Morning Destroys

in Cars0n's Addition.
FAMILY OF FIVE SMALL CHILD.
rem DESTITUTE.
One Son is Still in Hospital
Having Lost a Foot in
Accident.

InlS morning about 6:3O lire
broke out in a small tar papered
house south of the Great North
ern track and rapidly burned to
the ground. The house belonged
to G.. b. Carson and was occupied
by J. J. Moran. Mr.. Moran
works in the lath department of
the Crookston mill and works
nights and had notreached home
when the fire occurred. The fire
is thought to have been caused
by an over heated stove, as Mrs.
Moran had just stepped out of
The door for a moment. When
she returned the building was
ablaze. Nothing was saved with
the exception of sewing ma
chine.
The family consists of Mr.. and
Mrs. Moran and five children the
eldest thirteen years. One boy
was recently injured on a dray
returning from a base ball game
so that his leg had TO be ampu-
tated and he is still at the hospi-
tai. The family is almost en-
tirely destitute. The children
we're but partially dressed when
the fire occurred and the family
has not enough clothing for so
mild a day as this. Mr.. and Mrs.
Moran are much disheartened
over the caIamities which have
been visited upon them. They
are being cared for by the neigh
bOrs at present.

PAYMENT $4,000
Successfully Conducted at The
Red Lake Agency Last
Week.

Isaac Blooston returned last
night from the Red Lake agency
where he went to attend the gov
eminent payment to the Red
Lake Indians. The veteran John
U. Morrison returned with Mr..
Blooston. There were 1912 In
dams who received money from
the government, young and old
receiving just the same amount.
The payment amounted to $4,000
while a separate payment of
$1,000 was also due the Indians.
Most of the Indians came to the
agency in full force and camped
there during the payment. A
few however, remained on the
point and the officials took the
money over to them.

FROM SAVANNAH TO DAVENPORT
A Leading Business Man of the
south Talks of Georgia.

Mr.. and Mrs. Wallace j. Pierpont
of Savannah, Ga, are spending a few
days with B. F. Tillinghast and fam
lily. They have been seeing the Worlds
Fair and like many others extend their
trip up the Mississippi valley.
Mr.. Pierpont is at the head of the
Pierpont Manufacturing Company, one
of the largest and most successful of
the Georgia industries. His house
takes the tree in the forest and con-
verts it into boxes, crates and many
other shapes for the shipment of fruit
and vegetables. These goods so in
large quantities to Cuba, Mexico and
other parts of the world. They go to
all parts of the South where the early
vegetables are grown.
Mr.. Pierpont is a Northern man who
has been in the South for some ten
years. There is no more typical South
ern city than Savannah, and as a port
it ranks with Norfolk, New Orleans
and Galveston, being first in the coun-
try in the shipment of naval stores.
Mr.. Pierpont says the South well
comes business men and capital from
the North, and that ii offers fine OPP
portunities. No chance is offered for
discussion on the superior advantages
Savannah offers for both business and

The increase in realty values in this

There was a large increase in personal
property.
The grand jury investigated last
years tax returns closely and raised
the assessments of a number of indi-
viduals and corpora tons. In one case
the grand jury went back for three

CHATHAM COTTON
MAY BE INJURED.
FORMS BEGINNING TO FALL
As RESULT OF THE EXCESSIVE
RAINS OF LAST TWO WEEKS.

Hundreds of the Small Forms May
BE Seen Lying On the Ground I'm
der the Cotton Plants, Says MIR.
NJ. L. ExIey-FOrecaster Boyer Says
Rain Has Been General Through
out the Cotton Belt, But Excess
sive Only i'm SpOts-With Excep-
ton of the Cotton, Rains Have
Not Injured Truck Farms in Chat
ham-SIight Damage Probable to
Tomatoes.
The continued rains are damaging
the Chatham county cotton and unless
there is a change in weather condi-
lions the results may be serious. This
is the opinion of Mr.. NJ. L. Exley. In
speaking of the effects of the rain on
the cotton, Mr.. Exley said:
'Of course 1 can speak only for my
cotton, as 1 have not been around
among the other truck farms. The
continued rain, however, has had a
bad effect on the cotton. The stalks
are turning a yellowish color and the
leaves also are loosing their appear
ance of greenneSs and freshness.
THE worst result of the continued
rains, however, is the falling off of
what is known as the forms. These are
the small growths that Just precede
the bloom and which afterwards de-
velop into the bolls and their coverings.
Great numbers of these are forming
and are not yet strong enough to
Withstand the effects of the weather.
Forms Falling OF.
Il have noticed that these are falling
off in great numbers and all that is
necessary to substantiate the state
ment is to look under the cotton
plants on the ground. You will find
hundreds of these small forms lying
there just as they have fallen from
the stalks.
II am inclined to believe that the ex-
cessive rains have been purely local
and that therefore the general cotton
belt is not affected. Even here the
damage is not yet so very serious, but
if the heavy and excessive rains
should continue very serious results
may follow"
Forecaster Boyer, in charge of the
Weather Bureau, when asked later re-
garding the rains of the past two
weeks said:
'The rains have been general
throughout the cotton belt and along
the Atlantic seaboard. The excessive
rainfalls, however, have occurred only
in spots, and have not continued for
any great length of time. The reports
for to-day may show a complete
change in conditions, but 1 doubt it,
Little Damage to Truck.
Besides it's effect on the cotton crop,
Mr.. Exley stated that the rain had
done little or no damage. The excess
sive rainfalls occurred just at the sea-
son of the year, when there were but
few vegetables in the ground. the ma
jority of the truckers having not yet
set out the fall crops.
Immediately after the spring and
summer crops are gathered" said Mr.
Exley, 1--WE allow the ground to go to
hay. AS long as the grass is uncut
the rains help it rather than injure it.
When we are ready to cut however,
we must have dry weather.
"If these heavy rainfalls had to
come, they could not have occurred
at a better season of the year. Few,
if any, of the fall crops have as yet
been set out. and as a result there
are few vegetables in the ground.
These are the things which suffer most
