manager of the company which bought
the product from the negro. The ne
gro made contract to raise potatoes
on his acre of land for the Canning
Company at 35 cents a bushel. Be-
fore he had carried out the contract,
the negro asked for a better price for
his potatoes, but the company held
him to it, and when he carried the pro-
duct of his one acre to the factory a
few days ago he received $40 for 200
bushels of line potatoes.
Not only was the crop a big one,
but the size and quality of the pota-
toes were excellent. The negro could,
he learned afterward, have raised
other products on the land, thus in
creasing its earning capacity consid-
erably, if he had thought of it in time,
He promises to do better next year
and the prospects are he will get more
than double that sum for his labor in
1911.
Potatoes, according to merchants Of
Jackson and other cities, are in good
demand all the year, yet large part
of this product consumed in Mississip
pi is shipped into the state. Pota
toes make a good money crop, and the
yield is tremendous. It. requires bu
little work to raise fine crop of potat
toes, and the business men of Jack
son want the farmers to raise more
potatoes in the future.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamei condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and then it is entirely closed. Dear
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out Of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
