IS YEARS OF SUFFERING.
Burning, Painful Sores on Legs Tortured Day and Night-Tried Many Remedies to No Avail
 Cured by Cuticura.

After an attack of rheumatism, running sores broke out on my hus- bands legs, from below the knees to the ankles There are no words to tell all the discomforts and great suf- fering he had to endure night and day. He used every kind of remedy and three physicians treated him, one after the other, without any good results whatever. One day l ordered some Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Resolvent. He began to use them and in three weeks all the sores were died up. The burning fire stopped, and the pains became bear able. After three months he was quite well. I can prove this testimonial at any time. Mrs. V. V. Albert, Upper Frenchville, Me-, July 21. 1907."

 lie production of the soutb's cot. 'oh crop Is being variouslv estimated at the present time from 11.500 ooo to i'''oo0oo bales. The leading autbori. 'ieS oh consumption estimate that tba "oIld need for American cotton dnr- lh6 the next twelve months will not laii snort of 1250O,000 bales. Admit. Cihs Tor arguments sake that in the supplies Of raw cotton available for spihhlng purposes on the first dav os @ep'elloef there was carried over from the past year 500,000 bales of Ameri. can cotton, this would have to be shin pea rom the present growing cron I-'0VooO0 bales. If the present cron would ultimately show a production of I''o00V0 bales more than actually re. qtiifed Tor consumption, then the onlv way to prevent too low prices is for farmers to hold over this surnlus tbem. selves rather than throw 1t on the market and depress the price of the entire crop. There are in round mum. oers about l 5000 head of blow stock engaged In the south It would not be great hardship on the growers to hold back one bale of cotton per blow thls winter and cut down the acreage next spring two acres to the blow. from which the 100000 bales held back from the crop of 1908 was pro- duced. Let us do little figuring and see how it works out
 |elve million bass at lie or s55 per bale, will amount to $660.00 900; l3,300 000 bales at Sc. or S45 per bale. will amount to s607. .500, 900. This calcu. lation shows a net loss of $52 .000 Quo and 100000 bales of cotton thrown In by marketing surplus of the crop at price of % per pound less than the actual needs of consumption will show that it is much better to sell eight bales for $445 than sacrifice nine bales for s405. Each man would not only get more from the few. CT bales sold, but would be in better financial shape to hold the extra bale per blow.
 The best way to put this plan into operation is to market only one twelfth of the years production each month and refuse to sell any more. This will force the mills actively into the mark ct. prices will advance to good levels and the average price demanded for what is sold to the mills within the next ten months will be secured. By next March the exact production of this years crop will be positively known. and under the system of slow selling each grower will know just what part of his crop should be carried over, if any, and the acreage next spring, correspondingly reduced.
