guests have done much to make
Panacea Springs an ideal place in
which to spend the week end vaca-
ton. Fortunately the train service
over the Seaboard Air Line is such
that one wishing 10 visit the Springs
may do SO with loss Of a little time
from home. The service at the hotel
this season is by far the best since it's
opening and the booking of guests
Tor the next two months is the
largest n its history.
Many plans for the entertainment
OF guests during August and Septem-
Der have been made and those who
are anticipating a visit to Panacea
have much to look forward to.
There are indeed few resorts in this
section that offer to the people seek
ing health and recreation advantages
such as those offered by Panacea.
Good railroad service, easy accessi-
bility, automobile service between
town and the Springs, beautiful To-
cation, comfortable and reasonable
hotel accommodations, fine fare, the
wonderful curative water and last
but by no means least the many
pleasant social features that are pre-
pared for the pleasure of the guests
by the popular proprietor and his
wife, make of this an ideal resort
combining both pleasure and health
giving environments.

A broad and we'll kept road leads
across the dam and situated SO as to
be easily accessible is new and con-
venient spring house, which shelters
the spring
From this unfailing spring a con
slant supply OF this wonderful cura-
tive water flows in abundance. Of
the medicinal properties of Panacea
water much could be written and the
long history OF it's many wonderful
cures would fill page after page. For
rheumatism, kidney troubles, skin dis
eases OF all kinds, Panacea water is
pronounced to be the best. Hun
dreds Of people in this and other
states who have suffered and have
been cured by this water are loud in
its praise.

OF the fatal shooting by accident OF
Mr.. AL Vinson at his home in Little

Monday says:
Mr.. AL Vinson of Littleton, was ac-

no hope held out by attending ply
sicians for his recovery. Mr.. Vinson
was seated on his porch and his son
and a nephew were playing with a
pistol, supposed to be unloaded. He
called to the boy to bring him the
pistol as there might be danger
in handling it. The little fellow
started towards his father, swapping
the pistol as he walked. There was q
loud report and Mr.. Vinson fell back
in his chair, mortally wounded. The
ball took effect over the eye and is
imbedded in the brain.

BEWARE or SORGHUM FRAUDS
Government Calls Attention 10 Mis-
representations by Seed Sellers.

Government Calls Attention 10 Mis-
representations by Seed Sellers.
The United States department. Of ag
riculture recently issued two bulletins
relating to sorghum-a bulletin on
''The History aud Distribution Of
Sorghum" and circular for free dis
tribution on "Three Much Misrepre
sented Sorghums" The object Of th,
latter is to set the people right con
cerning some mistakes and misrepre
sentntions.
Recently an Oklahoma man has been
selling at 30 cents a pound seed grain
Of what he calls california wheat
which he declares will produce 200 tc
400 bushels per acre. The department
shows that this is a variety of sor
ghun known as shallu. which. after n
thorough test few years ago. proved
only about half as productive as Katfii
corn 1t is also inferior as a forage
crop.
The second Of these "misrepresented
sorghums" is a SO called chocolate
corn" accounts of which have appear
ed in the press at different times. The
department announces that 1t never
had any seed of chocolate corn" for
distribution and that the plants which
have sometimes received that name
were simply varieties of sorghum,
probably in most cases the Early Am
ber sorgo.
The sale of sorghum seed in the
south. under the name Of Texas seed
ed ribbon cane. by certain seedsmen
has led to much confusion and disap-
pointment. The use of the term rib
bon cane" is the cause of the trouble
since this is the popular name for the
sugar cane of the south, which does
not bear seed The impression spread
by advertisers Of this seed was that
they were offering a variety of the
sugar game which would produce seed,
and there was large demand for this
seed. which. in fact was nothing more
than goose neck" sorghum. The de
mand eventually exhausted the supply
of seed and the seedsmen began filling
orders with other sorghum seed. The
fraud was promptly exposed by the
department of agriculture. but the sale
Of this seed continues. The depart
ment urges that the name seeded rib
bon cane" be discontinued because ii
is misleading.
