Eat What
You want of the food you need
Kodol will digest it.

You need a sufficient amount OF
good wholesome food and more than
this you need to fully digest 1t.
Else you can't gain strength, ner
can you strengthen your stomach If
It is weak.
You must eat ia order to live and
maintain strength.
You must not diet, because the
body requires that you eat a sufac-
lent amount of food regularly.
But this food must be digested,
and it must be digested thoroughly.
When the stomach can't do It,
you must take something that will
help the stomach.
The proper way to do is to eat
what you want, and let Kodol di-
gest the food.
The Lexington dispatch. [volume] (Lexington, South Carolina) 1870-1917, 1909-06-09

Nothing else can do this. When
the stomach is weak it needs help;
you must help it by giving it rest,
and Kodol will do that.

Makes for SAVING Wheat.

One reason why farmers this year
seem more DESTROYS than usual to
thresh and sell their wheat immedi.
ately is declared by grain men to be
the fear that If it is stacked the Der.
ries will shell out upon the ground.
Rainy weather delayed cutting the
wheat over large section of the
state, and it was ripened beyond the
proper point when harvested. Wher-
ever this condition exists, some of the
grain is likely to be lost with each
handling. The farmers, therefore,
think it to their advantage to thresh
from the shock and haul at once To
the elevator.

High Freight Rates.

According to o. r. Thompson, state
senator from the Seventh district,
the Northwestern Railway company
has clever way of extorting high
freight rates. In complaint filed
with the state railway commission he
asserts that the railway men charge
for sheep weights far above the abil-
ity of the shippers to crowd the ami
mails into the cars. AS a result, the
shippers are compelled to pay a much
higher freight rate. The matter will
be brought before the railway com
mission for early adjustment.

Land Values.

An analysis of the returns made by
the county assessors to the State
Board of Assessment shows that sew.
eral assessors have returned the value
of lands this year less than last year.
Just how this can be the board is UNI
able to figure. Land Is assessed only
once In every four years and each
year the improvements made thereon
is assessed. Every county. therefore,
should show an increased value of
lands. As far as reported the de.
creases are as follows: Boone, SIC, 1000;
Dawes, $4,000; Greeley. 10000; Hook
err, $4,000; Lancaster. $4,000; Logan,
$1,000: Merrick. $4,000. Furnas coun-
ty lands increased just 81. while
Knox county lands were returned at
exactly the same valuation as last
year.
