At the meeting of the State Board
of Agriculture, which is to be held
here early in June, it is sprobable that
several important matters will be
disposed Of The last legislature en-
powered the board of agriculture to
make certain rules in regard to adul-
terateon of foods, and it is under
stood that this will be taken up at
the June meeting and some action
taken. There has been considerable
complaint in North Carolina during
the past few years in regard to the
adulteration of food products, and
it is very probable that a provision
will be made requiring that when an
article is adulterated the fact that it
is not the pure product must be
shown. Most of the complaint, nat
urally, comes from the wholesale
merchants who handlepure products
and are put to agreat disadvantage
when forced to compete with the mer-
chands selling adulterated goods.
The action of the pOard OF agricul-
ture is being awaited with much in
terest, and some Of the merchants are
already getting more careful about
their purchases. The national law
in regard to adulterated food pro-
ducts isvery stringent, and the opin-
ion is expressed that the board OF
agriculture will follow this law very
closely. At the present time thereis
no pure food law in North CarOlona
that is OF any special consequence.

Four Carpenters in Henderson
Who Had Dyspepsia and In
digestion State What
Cured Them.

The trade of carpentry requires
steady nerves, fine eyesight, ability
to figure and calculate quantities
and dimensions 1t also requires a
natural aptitude for handling tools,
which is not given to all men by any
means. All these qualities possessed
by these four men, were in danger of
being impaired by Dyspepsia, that
foe to good health. Indeed they were
not up to that standard of efficiency
so desirable and which they had been
accustomed to. When there is trou-
ble in the stomach there is trouble in
the head, trouble with easy muscu-
lar action, trouble with clear eye
sight, trouble everywhere. This con-
ditiOn, however, is not incurable; on
the contrary the kerner- McNair Drug
Company have lately received a med.
icine which not only cured these men
OF the plane and saw but did SO when
everything else failed. 1t is called
DR.. Richards Dyspepsia Tablets and
the price will not affect you, as it is
only so cents per bottle.
