The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1907-03-22

Somehow we believe that the
time is now at hand when the
people of this county are laying
aside all chickering's and divisions
and are now ready to work for a
common end. Whether it be in
business, in religion or in educa-
ton, all must make concessions
one to another. If we cannot get
the first choice. let's be content with
the second, But, whether 1t be
first, or second,or third choice, let's
combine and work and do something
There's much to be accomplished in
Obion County this year-roads to be
built, bridges to be repaired, schools
to be improved and maintained. To
accomplish all these blessings there
must be union, genuine union.
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1907-03-22

To establish County High Schools
would keep the children at home,
where paternal influences are great
est. It would retain in the county
thousands of dollars each year that
otherwise would be spent in other
counties and States for education.
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1907-03-22

Sixteen counties of the State,
some Of them the poorest, financial
ly, now have County High Schools,
where every boy and girl have equal
rights. In these counties the coun-
try student has an equal right with
the city student. Why not give
them this right in Obion County?
No county in the State has more
wealth per capita. The school per
capita surpasses that OF no other
county. The boys and girls are as
bright and sweet and pure as the
world ever saw; then why not give
them the blessings enjoyed by 9TH

WHY 1T SUCCEEDS
Because It's For One Thing Only, and
Great Bend People Appreciate This.

Nothing can be good for everything.
Doing one thing we'll brings success.
Doan's Kidney Pills do one thing
only.
They cure sick kidneys.
They cure backache, every kidney
i'll.
Here is Great Bend evidence to
proveit.
Mrs. c. L. Woman, living at 1901
Twelfth ST., Great Bend, Kansas,
says: "Doan'S Kidney Pills did me
a world of good in relieving the con-
slant dull aching and soreness in the
small Of my back which had kept me
in misery for SO long. They also re-
gulated the irregular passages of the
kidney secretions, clearing up the
sediment and stopped the scalding
sensation. | cannot speak too highly
in praise of Doan's Kidney Pills and
only hope this may be the means of
helping some of the many who suf-
fer from kidney complaint. Ipro

ABOUT OUR SUGAR BETS
The Gfeai Bend County. viii Make
Good.

Mr.. j. j. Turner. Manager of
the Land Dept. Of The United
States Sugar & Land Co.. who
has recently returned home from
an inspection Of the Sugar Beet
fields around Great Bend, Kansas.
was much impressed With the fine
condition in which he found the
beets in that section. In view of
the fact that this is an entirely
new crop in that country. and that
the growers have had no previous
experience in sugar beets raising, =
Mr.. Turner thinks they are to be
congratulated on the fine appear
ance Of their first crop. As is
we'll known, the sugar beet as a
croD requires considerable care
and attention, and the beets in the
Great Bend region show to some
extent the lack of sufficient care,
due to the inexperience of the
growers, vet their fields will com.
pare favorably with the best
fields in the Garden City District.
Mr.. Turner noted particularly
that the Great Bend Growers had
not taken into account the rich.
ness of their soil, and had thiuned
their beets too thin, with the re-
suit that many of their beets have
grown too large. Some beets
which be saw will run upward of
20 tons to the acre. Had they
not been thinned so thin. the beets
would have been smaller but their
larger number would have re.
suited in an even larger tonnage
than is now promised and tie per
ceDtsge of sugar would have been
very much greater"

May Change
Land Laws
REPRESENTATIVE JOHN HUGHES
is REPORTED TO BE AT WORK
ON SUCH A MEASURE.

There is to be measure introduced
in the legislature providing for a
change in the present land laws. Rep
resentative John Hughes of Oahu is
understood to be preparing a measure
that will provide for notifications of
the present laws. The row that has
arisen over the recent Lanai land
transfer is understood to be one rea-
son for Hughes contemplated meas
ure. The desire to aid prospective
homesteaders securing public lands is
another cause for the proposed chan
ges. The bill or resolution or whatever
form the measure will take, has not
been announced yet
In order for such a measure to be-
come effective, it would have to be ap-
proved by Congress, The corporation
law was passed by the legislature but
it had to be subsequently approved by
Congress before 1t become effective.
