/. ED. WILLIAMS AND
HIS RECORD IN OFFICE
WANTS HIS FRIENDS THROUGH
OUT EScAMBIA COUNTY TO RE
MEMBER HIM HANDSOMELY
NEXT TUESDAY,.

J. Ed. Williams, candidate for re-
election to the office of county treas
urer, desires to reach his friends in
the country districts on the eve of
The primary to show that he is de-
sirous of again attaining to the object
sought, and that is denomination.
Mr. Williams regards the support of
his friends in the country districts as
an invaluable aid to his candidacy, for
he has numerous warm-hearted
friends outside the city who wish TO
see him again in the Office, because
of his good record in the past.
Just on the eve of the primary some
false reports may be started against
the man now holding the office. Mr..
Williams points to the past, an open
book of record, and proudly shows
every act free from anything not in
immediate keeping with the office ana
its legal requisites. He has made
study of the conduct of the office,
and of the correct manner of the way
in which it should have attention.
There is not a signature he has ever
seen twice but what he would i'm
mediately recognize and identify
again, and this is just one of the
many reasons why the time for a
change in the county treasurer is
not just at present. Mr. Williams
gives as much attention to the coun-
ty office perhaps as he does his own
personal business matters, and this is
another thing which is not usual
with officials who could get along
without such close attention. He
points with pride to his past record,
hA
proud of, and asks that the ante-cam-
paign false reports be regarded 5ust
in such light as they are worthy,
which means that they should be
given not the least consideration.
Six years in Office, a tried and true
officer, Mr.. Williams again asks for
consideration. and pIedges the same

out laugh. Mr.. Blount, the youngest
banker" was then called upon for a
short talk. Mr. Blount said that all
the work OF local preparation had been
showed off on him by the other ones,
and besides, he felt delicacy in talk
ing to men who had more experience
in the business than he did. He said.
besides, that he was in a hurry.
Mr.. Wilmington, of the Savannah

hoped that it would continue.

SCHOOL ENUMERATION.

In the State Of West Virgins
there are enumerated SCI, o5S school
children, six and 81 years. The
total of the enumeration has beer
announced from the office of the
state superintendent of free schools
and shows decided increase over
that of last year.
The apportionment basis makes
the per capita 81, 5SS reduction
from last year of about IS cents.
That decrease is due by an increase
in the enumeration and a liberal dis
tribution of money to the proper
school districts.
The amount named is from the
general school fund, and the amour,
distributed last year was $6O6,957
The amount for distribution this
year is $567, 1854, or a decrease Of
$50, 1855.

CURES TUBERCULOSIS.

Rochester, n. Y, July 90. -
Henry Hoefen, prominent drug
gist, who was in the last stages Of
tuberculosis year ago and who has
been treating himself with crotalin,
or rattlesnaKe venom, has been pro-
nounced cured by the physician who
examined him two years ago and told
him that he could not live. To-
night the physician told him that
there was no indication of active
tuberculosis and that there were
evidences that the cavities in the
lungs had healed.
Hoefen. who was Respondent and
expected to die with consumption,
as he had suffered 81 severe hemor-
RACES and was weak and emaciated,
saw the story of the experiments
made by DR.. Thomas J. Mays, of
Philadelphia, and secured some of
the poison from Rattlesnake Pete. !"
He prepared the doses for himself and
took one-ffteth of a grain every "a
hours internally. He started to take
the medicine on Christmas, 1909.
After taking 100 doses he showed
marked improvement. Now his
weight is above normal, his cough
has disappeared and his lungs have
healed.

MUST PAY REVENUE.

Washington, July e5.-Sections
ofthe country which receive their in
toxicating stimulants in the guise of
perfumes, essences, medicines or
drugs we're delivered body blow to-
day by Commissioner CabelIe, ofthe
internal revenue bureau, who gave
out list of more than 200 prepara-
lions which hereafter may be hand
led by drug stores only after the gov
eminent liquor license is paid.
Treasury department officials said
they believed many of these prepare
tons were concocted mainly for sale
in dry territory, where the prohibit
ton laws made it impossible to OBJ
tain legally anything with liquor
favor.
1t is estimated there are 40, 900
druggists in the United States, Slight
ly more than half of whom pay the
$e5 yearly special tax which permits
them to sell the preparations inyolv-
ed. Other stores which continue to
vend these mixtures will now BE re-
quired to pay the tax and the United
States treasury will be enriched ac-

BERRIES SCARCE.

Blackberries are coming into the
market now and are being bought as
fast as they arrive. The prevailing
price is a5 cents per gallon, but
some stores and farmers as well are
selling them at 80 cents per gallon.
1t is said that the crop this year will
be small and the berries will last only
few weeks.
While the vines were laden with
bloom, and later with green berries,
it is stated that the wet weather has
spoiled the crop. Just when the
berries needed rain the hot sun came
and their size is reduced as conse-
quence.

SAVING THE MOISTURE.

The great problem for the farmer
to solve during the hot days when
the'crops are growing most promis-
ingly under glowing sun-the great
problem is the problem of moisture
for the crops. A growing crop needs
hundreds of tons of water for every
acre. This water passes from the
soil to the air through the plant, be-
ing taken in by thousands of tiny
rootlets and carried up to the leaves,
whence it passes away by eyapora-
ton.
The water that is taken up by
weeds does not benefit the corn.
And the corn needs all the water.
The water that evapora:es from the
hard surface of the field can not help
the corn. And the corn needs all
the water at this season and until the
ears are hard in the fall.
The water can be saved for the
corn by frequent cultivation. Guilt
vate often, but not deep. Stir the
surface soil after every shower; for it
is from the rain-packed surface that
the water evaporates most rapidly.
This frequent cultivation keeps the
weeds under control and gives the
growing crop the conditions most
suitable to promote rapid growth.

SAVED S65O,OOO.

The dismantling of the govern
ment cement mill at Roosevelt, Arr
IONA, which was built because of the
high cost of Transporting cement to
the Roosevelt dam, marks the end,
says the Scientific American, of one
of the most successful undertakings
of its kind. During its five years of
operation, the mill has turned out
$50, 900 barrels Of cement, the bulk
of which went into the dam, and the
remainder into the fumes, canal and
powerhouse. It is estimated that
the mill has effected net saving of
$3.50, 900.
