COOPER Tells Reporter WHY
He ACCOMPLISHES 50 MUCH

No man in recent years has been
more successful in restoring human
health than L. T. Cooper. During his
stay in Chicago, and while he was
meeting thousands of people daily, he
gave the following reason for the re-
markable demand for his medicine to a
reporter:
Mr.. Cooper said: my New Dis
covery is successful because it corrects
the stomach. My theory is that few
cam be sick if the digestive apparatus
is working properly. 1t naturally fol-
lows that few can be we'll with a poor
digestion.
Il know Il ON experience that most
OF the tired, half-sick people that are
so common nowadays have sick
stomachs. Put the stomach In shape,
and nature does the rest The result
is general good health My medicine
does this. That is why fifty, thousand
people here in Chicago are using 1t
who never heard of me until month
ago." =
Among the fifty thoaend mentioned
by Mr.. Cooper who used his medicine
in Chicago is Mrs. Hilda HaseeSs NJ

Jackson, Miss. Feb. 24.-The recent

cording to reports received here from
prominent horticulturalists in various

The cold weather that has generally
prevailed in Mississippi for the past
sixty days has retarded any prema-
ture sap rising or budding, and has
held back the peach trees from bloom
ing. Little apprehension has been
felt concerning the strawberry crop,
but there is always anxiety concern.

now being received are of very en-

There has been some damage, OF
course, to early vegetables, but it can
be easily made amends for, and at very
little expense. Some tomato plants
had been transplanted and were de
stroyed by the freezing weather. but
truck farmers will not encounter any
trouble in securing new plants, ant
confidence is felt that the recent dror

CULTIVATE GRAIN
IN PLACE COTTON
indications Are That Alabama Farm.
ers Will Plant More Grain Than
Ever Before.
Special to The Neios.

Special to The NeUs.
Montgomery, Ala, Feb. 24.-Ala-
bama farmers are getting ready for
crop with a will and determination
never before known in the state, &C
cording to j. A. Wilkinson, commits
s-oner of agriculture, who is going
about great deal and seeing much
of the state from a standpoint of the
growing season. Flowing is more gen.
eral and deeper. he thinks, and the
great area made ready for corn indi-
Gates an interest to that and other
grains not heretofore noted
Cotton lands are being prepared for
the fertilizers, and while there will per-
haps be no decrease in acreage, it is
quite certain that there will be no in
crease. In fact, the people seem to be
turning from cotton and looking to
grain with result of more grain to the
acre and better understanding of the
business of raising grain. Mr.. Wilkin-
son thinks that the year 1910 will show
a great increase in the enthusiasm
of Alabama farmers for home products
of all kinds.
| Oats, save where sown in open fur
rows, are hurt by the cold, especially
in the upper part Of the state. 1t is
shown that broadcasting is less apt tC
be good thing, and the open furrow
may be adopted as the best way. How
ever, where they were turned in with
two-horse plow, they are in good shape
shallow narrowing is no protection
When they begin to show signs Of
running nitrate of soda should be ap
piled, about 100 pounds to the acre
This has been found by the agricul
tural experts to be the best amount
for the crop in this state.
Along the line of crop enthusiasm
Commissioner Wilkinson is much
pleased with the meeting of agricul
tural school men last week. He found
that in every section there is revival
for grain and other crops, while cot
ton is claiming no increased enthusi
asm. He is also OF the opinion that
the talk on the boil weevil and its de-
struction is going to have good effect
in inducing men to plant less cotton
and more food crops This is the only
way to run fight on the bug that
will leave the people any profit in the
end.
Mr.. Wilkinson tells good story on
North Alabama. When the work of
eradicating the tick from cattle was
begun they kicked. Now they are
asking for it, the Tennessee dealers de
handing that the Alabama cattle be
free from ticks before they will handle
them. The tick work is being en-
GorseG in al sections with demand for
| it.

SPAIN AND THE VATICAN.

Count Romanones, president OF the
Spanish chamber Of deputies, is quoted
in an interview yesterday as declaring
that the policies Of Premier Canalejas
are daily gaining adherents among the
adyersaries Of the government, as the
country is convinced that he is working
for the LIST interests of the nation. The
count thinks that Spain will be eman-
cipated from "fanatical clericalism, "
which he avs has for centuries weighed
heavily upon it. The struggle is not
against Catholicism, but against cleri-
calism, which is impeding the indus
trial and commercial development OF
Spain and mingling in politics AT the
opening OF the COrtes Canalcjas, ac-
cordint to the president, will announce
an unmodiied continuation Of his re-
ligious programme. The Paddock

Their religious establishments until the
revision Of the conccr1at has been COM
pleted or definite law on the subject
has been passed, which measure is OPP
posed by the vatican, will not be with
drawn, but on the contrary, the Senate
will resume its discussion of the legis
lation.

RUNAWAY.

Reporters are often called upon to
record runaway accidents, but they we're
surprised today to learn that an equine
which for long time, like wound
ed snake, has drawn its slow length
along in front Of heavy iron garbage
tank, had taken it into its head to
run away. This actually happened
on DIXIE street, near Henry. The
animal, which was in charge OF Peter
Newman, succeeded in breaking some
of the harness before it was brought
to stop. Heretofore the horse at
tached to such vehicle has moved
slowly as though attached to Jugger-
naut car, and, judging from com
plants of hOusekeepers whose slop
pals are often up to the brim, 1t would
be necessary to build fire under the
animal drawing the garbage wagon IN
order to get move on it. Oyerseer
Sherwood is credited with bringing
up" the poor house lands. He seems
70 be adding spirit to the horses also.
