No Fake Ads.

| Ohe OIL the leading Agricultural
Juornals of the South has recently re-
fused to carry the advertisement of a
certain widely advertised stock food,
for the reason as stated, that the
food, upon analysis was shown to
be worthless and the goods swindle.
Thousands of pounds of this so-called
food was sold to unsuspecting farm
ers, who were offered handsome priz-
es. premiums, etc, in addition, as an
inducement to buv trial lot. In this
day of intelligence 1t should not be
possible for any unscrupulous concern
to fool' the farmers and the coun-
try people as in former times. But it
seems as easy now to swindle some
people as it ever was. They do not
read the papers. do not try to inform
themselves, and are still an easy prey
to the confidence men and gold-brick
guys as heretofore
Advertisements which propose cost
ly premiums free, stock foods and
patent medicines which propose to
cure every ailment, from the tooth
ache to cancer and tuberculosis, reme-

all other ills to which horse flesh is
heir--all these should be dealt in
sparingly. No doubt some of them
are good remedies, but the bulk of
them are fakes, pure and simple.

are at it, farmers and town people

that the long-drawn- -out instalment

pensive agents, all cost money, and

and attracted much attention. DR..
Peirce is not only successful ply

as well as entomologist. He had on
exhibition n nice collection of vege-

a Dry Town

John II. Hall, who lives near Five
Oaks, was in town one day this week.
Mrs. Hall is just getting over Sc
v ere attack of fever. Hall lives in
what is known as "Dry Town." a
suburb of Five Oaks, where brother
B. B. Greever lives and moves and
has his being when he hasn't the
rheumatism. Dry Town was laid out
about 25 years ago. The late Capt.
Ed. Peery sold off few lots there.
The Jones boys, we believe, were the
first settlers. The town was dubbed
"Dry Town" on account Of its lack
of water. The little burg has grown
some, though there is still room there
for other settlers. John Jones is put
/ ting new porch in front of his cot
tage, so, the town is not without SOM
signs of growth.
