First Aids to the NAVY.

Much interest has been at.
tracted to document which has
been submitted to the secretary OF
the navy by Surgeon General
Rixey and sent to congress as an
aid to enacting the three bills,
which have for the purpose,
respectively, the establishment of a
woman'S nurse corps, the reorgani-
cation of the present naval hospital
corps and the employment of
dental surgeons. Surgeon General
Rixey says that if his recommen-
dationS had been observed in the
last two or three years there would
have been prevented some of the
disease and deaths which have oc-
Cured. The statement is an en-
phatic form of calling attention to
the needs of the naval medical
corps, and officers of that branch
entertain the hope that something
will come of the recommendations.

Editor Brandon News: On March

all little, had speeches and
dialogues and showed from the way
they delivered them that they had
been we'll trained by their much
loved teacher, Miss Ollie Watson,

the teacher had prepared a nice
little surprise for the children in
the way of candy and fruits, and
was very much enjoyed by all the

made no mistake in -electing her as.
teacher for the next term of school.

Are Turtles Animals?

A weird but serious complaint
has reached the bureau of insular
affairs of the war department, re-
lating to the Classification by the
Customs officials of sea turtles.
The point at issue is whether the
monster turtles should pay duty as
"animals not otherwise classified
or come in as "reptiles" free Of
duty. That turtle is a reptile is
tenaciously held by those inter
ested in the industry which here
tofore has flourished on the south
side of the island.
Under the "animal classifi-
cation" the duty collected is re-
garded as prohibitive, according to
the complaint made, and authority
is sought to have the turtle once
more assigned to the "reptile
class"
To support the contention, the
claim is made that Roman Catholics
consider that a turtle is not flesh.
1t is suggested here that the Cuban
customs officials doubtless had be-
fore them in making the classified
ton the ruling Of the American
government in classifying frogs
legs as "dressed poultry"

new THEORY IS RAPIDLY 4
SPREADING OVER COUNTRY

1. I. Cooper's theory concerning the
iuman stomach, which he claims to
grove, with his new medicine, is being
given more respect and comment every
day.
Cooper claims that 90 per cent. of
all Ill health is due to stomach trouble.
When interviewed about his theory re.
Gently, he said: Stomach trouble is
the great curse of the goth century
so far as the civilized races are con-
cerned. Practically all of the chronic
Ill health of this generation is caused
by abnormal stomachic conditions. In
earlier days, when the human race was
closer to nature, and men and women
worked all day out of doors. digging
their frugal existence from the soil,
the tired, droopy, half-sick people that
are now so common, did not exist.
TO be sure, there was sickness in
those days, but it was of a yirulent
character, and only temporary. There
was none of this half-sick condition
all the time with which so many are
afflicted nowadays.
i know positively that every bit of
this chronic i'll health is caused by
stomach trouble. The human stomach
in civilized people today is degenerate.
It lacks tone and strength. This weak
ness has gradually come through a.
sedentary existence, I further know
that few people can be sick with the
digestive apparatus In perfect shape.
Inc sole reason for my success is be-

100000 Worth Of Poultry.

Few, if any, of our citizens know
little of the enormous poultry yard
egg business of Milan, Tenn. land the
long column of amounts, some small
and many large, that are paid into
| the hands of our farmers and
poultry raisers in and around Milan
every week. You will be a bit
surprised if we say the poultry
business is one of the leading
moneyed business Of this section,
but a glance at the figures below
will convince you that is a fact.
Brooks & Co., the largest whole
sale dealers in poultry, bought and
shipped one day in February 5,4o7
pounds of hens, 500 pounds of
turkeys and $500 dozen eggs.
This firm paid out on Saturday,
February 80, $9e6. 90 into the hands
of the farmers around Milan, and
over So, 900 during the month, c.
A. Lacy through his grocery,
handles about an average of $500
worth each month. Milan Grocery
Co., Bryan & Co., w. M. Wheel
|er, Oliver Bros. j. w. Rust and
all the others, handle share and
pay in cash and trade thousands of
dollars ka year to the poultry
raisers. Milan will ship on the ag-
gregate SIS, 900 or $4,000 worth of
turkeys, chickens, geese, ducks
and eggs each year. This seems
an enormous figure, but that
amount is turned into the hands
of the farmers as pin money.

WISE WORDS IN SEASON
Organizer Meyers Talks Horse
Sense to Union Men.

Dear Brother Farmers:-One of
1.-THE first purposes for which our
noble union was founded was to
get from under the mortgage and
credit system, and think you will
all ..agree with me that the only
way to accomplish that purpose is
to make home self-sustaining, for
just as long as we devote our en-
tire energy to raising the one crop
(cotton) and depend on selling cot
ton to buy everything else we
need, just that long we will remain
under bondage to the mortgage and
credit system, just that long we
will be at the mercy of the specu-
lator.
The past year there was some
thing near two million dollars worth
of goods sold on credit in Brook
haven. Our merchants are not
able to carry that immense burden
alone. They have to borrow
money from our local banks, and
we have three good and substantial
banks in the city. These banks
represent a capital and surplus of
three hundred and eighty-two
thousand dollars, which they
loaned to help carry this load, but
they were not able to furnish
enough money to carry the load SO
they were compelled to borrow, as
am informed, over three hundred
thousand dollars to help carry this
Immense burden; now brother
| farmers, when these banks obi
cations fall due they must be met.
There is not much sympathy in
business matters; it is simply cold
blooded business, So when their
bills fall due, they must look to the
merchants for their money to meet
these bills and the merchants must
collect from the farmer. Then
some of our farmers find fault with
the merchants and raWhide and
abuse the merchant for demanding
his pay. Now, brethren, the fault
is with US, at least two thirds of
these bills are due for that which
we should raise at home. Now,
farmers, let's turn over new leaf
| this year, let's plant plenty of feed
and forage crops at home. When
we think we have planted enough,
let's plant lew acres more, so we
can have enough and little to
spare the man who fails to raise
enough for his own use. Let's
raise our own hog and hominy, our
own feed, our 0Wn horses and
mules, then we can raise a cotton
crop for ourselves and get the
benefit of it, but unless you make
! home self-sustaining you raise cot.
| ton not for yourself, but for the
Iotber fellow. Let US do away
with this mortgage and credit
system, not by repeating the agri-
cultural lien law, but by putting It
out of use,
| Just the same we can get rid OF
| the blind tigers; if no one will
|patronize them, they will soon do
as the lrishman said about the
skunk, they will die of their own
stink; SO, brethren, let's make this
a banner year for our union, let's
make our homes happy and self
sustaining and the battle will be
won and our banner will be
VIGOROUSLY waving over the future
gamblers ramparts.
Sincerely your servant,
