To stop hiccouqhs.

Simple cases, of hiccough are often
relieved by such measures as sucking
ice or taking salt and vinegar. says the
New York Medical Journal. Pulling
the tongue forward and holding it for
some time is an effective procedure.
Sometimes obstinate hiccough is re-
lieved when the patient is strong by
having him hang with the arms ex-
tended and grasping some beam or
pole. so that his feet do not touch
the floor. With all the abdominal
muscles tense, have him hold his
breath as long as possible. Sneezing
is very efficient in certain cases. since
it is the exact opposite to hiccough.

IRE YOU FOR OLLIE JAMES,?
II So, Vote For Pogue.

Owing to the cumbersome
manner of electing u. S. Sena-
tors We do not vote directly for
them, but must delegate our
Representatives and State Sena-
tors to cast our vote for us. So
the friends of Ollie James must
bear this in mind when they cast
their ballots on November 7th.
If you vote for Mr.. Pogue, he is
pledged to Mr.. James.
While Mr.. James is the choice
not only of his own party, but
of thousands of independent vo-
tiers in the state. So bear in
mind that a vote for Pogue is a
vote for our own Ollie whom the
nation is proud to honor.

of overproduction. have ever TAX
en- the crop at a price SO made
quate as to impoverish farmers.
Then why under the shining
dome shouldn't an underproduct-
ion command a bigger price than
the average?
One of the Oldest buyers on
this market, a man who keeps
accurate records of tn local mar
ket. told this writer that for 80
years the average price paid on
this market was five cents. An
other buyer. regarded as equally
accurate. declared the average,
for the period mentioned. had
been four and three-quarter
cents. Each spoke from his own
records, which accounts for the
discrepancy.
Result worn-out lands. farm
buildings inadequate and deprec.

tenants and wives and children

underpaid and forced to leave
the farms.
The sales committee Of this
association have never asked an
unreasonable price for any crop,
but have ever been denied that
reasonable price. The sales CON-
mittee Of this association will
again name a reasonable price
for this short crop and make an
earnest effort to effect a sale for
loose delivery. For the commit
ee knows that will suit members
better than to prize. The COM
mittee also knows that will suit
buyers best. And, it will be
better for all the people in all
the counties.
But the committee is in a bet
ter position than ever before to
safeguard the rights of members.
And in case it becomes necessary
to prize the committee knows it
can depend on the loyal support
of the members.
Then why shouldn't play the
associations hand face up? For
in that hand are high, low. jack

and big and little casino-if only

average for the unfired.
Certain growers in the county
were paid a dividend of three
dollars on the 1910 crop by a

These same growers now know
that. had they been members of
the Stemming Association. they
had received on their 1910 crop
s6.10 on fired, and $40 on I'M
fired tobacco, as dividends.
Nor is this all, for all the
growers in this county are per-
suaded, and are warranted in be-
lieving, that but for the precip-
ate and i'll advised sale, or SEM
blance of a sale, of that other

than another to make sale of
this 1911 short crop. And the
association heartily welcomes all,
and will bust a hame string or
prove itself a saleman.
For while the crop is short
on quantity, it is long on quality,
and your Uncle William Elliot
and your other uncles, on the
district board, think they see
a way to realize remunerative
prices for this 1911 short crop.
And the fewer the unpooled crops
the better the price will be.
