DOtson Items

Dotson is situated about half way between Blevins and Belton and is surrouned by as good a farming upland country as you will find in the state. We never make failure in crops. Although the rain was not as we wanted it this summer, yet there will be plenty of corn to supply the county. Our land has a red clay foundation and stands a drouth we'll It is also adapted to all kinds of fruit. While we do not claim the best fruit and vegeta ble country in the world, yet if we had farmers here that were educated on growing fruit and vegetables, thi s community would come to the front. TT e P. &. N. w. people have land near their road here that would make fine fruit farms. This red land is fine for berries. One neighbor sold S30.00 worth of straw-b berries from one.sixth of an acre, after the family of six used all they wanted. His plants were only one year old.
 Dotson has one good store own. ed byMessers. Wardlow and Har- ris. Blacksmith Shop and mill owned by Mir. Mann, but Dot son needs a depot. There are more passengers that get on and of the train at Dotson than any other station to Prescott, except Blevins.
 Dotson is on the extreme vest ern boundary of School District No. AS. The voting presinct is at Friendship, about one mile northeast of Dotson and we can poll 100 votes. The greatest part of those men live east and part of them northeast of Dotson and a depot at Dotson would be of good help to them. So give us a depot and our people will build a packing house and go extensive fly in the fruit, berry and melon business. It is only a question of time, when Dotson will be a fiourishing town. J. A.

bies less than a year old consti-
tute one-fifth of the annual total
mortality, and Of these deaths at
least 125,000 need not have oc-
CURED if modern hygiene, as it
is known today, were practiced
universally.
The Bureau of the Census has
been continually laboring since
its permanent organization in
1902 for better vital statistics,
which means as a very important
part thereof registration Of in
FAINT mortality. 1t is urged that
the attack upon infant mortality
begins with the diarrheal and in
festival diseases of infancy. The
prevention or these diseases,
which are preeminently "'filth di-
%seases,'' will wipe out o%ne-fourth
of the total number of deaths of
babies under 2 years of age.

ton, and analysis Of records OF

There are many evidences that
the city man, wearied with the
never ending struggle FOR exis-
tence in the crowded centers of
population, has begun to think
about the green fields of the
country and a little farm of his
own, where he can spend his
later years in independence. Evil
dence multiply too that a decided
change is coming in the mental
attitude of the farm youth on the
subject of life on the farm. Daily
there is growing an appreciation
of the dignity of farming as a
profession.
In preparation for a life in
the country thousands of parents
are sending their sons to the
various agricultural colleges, and
an increasing number Of these
students are from the cities.
The farmers themselves in many
localities are taking up the short
term scientific courses provided
by numerous colleges. The United
States Government through It's
Reclamation Service is providing
the land, and the Department of
Agriculture, the states in their
experiment stations, the rail
roads with their lecture cars and
exhibits, are all encouraging the
back to the farm movement.
Throughout the land there are
thousands of people now residing
in the cities and towns who are
studying farming with a view
ultimately of removing to the
country. Today they are sim
ply book farmers, yet it is sur
prising how quickly these same
people make good when they go
into the game in real earnest.
On many Of the irrigation pro-
jects Of the government the man
ayers report that a surprisingly
large number of city bred folks
have taken up farms. A crop
census Of the farm furnishes re-
assuring evidence, that the city
fellow is more than holding his
own, and in some instances has
Teen more successful than many
Of the experienced farmers.
These successes are not excep-

LIFE ISN'T WORTH LIVING
When this Statement is Made
It May be Generally Attrib-
uted to the Lack Of Good
Health.

We want to talk to people
who are nervous, who suffer
frequent headaches, who don't
enjoy their food, who are irrita-
bic, quickly lose their temper,
who are so exhausted that they
feel they must give up, and have
become 50 Respondent that life
doesn't seem worth living.
Most of the above described
conditions are chiefly caused by
what is commonly called catarrh,
a 'below par" condition Of mu-
cous membranes. This delicate
lining Of certain of the body cav
tiles becomes weakened, inflamed
and congested until the whole
system is weakened, mental de-
preston ensuing as one of the
results. The wise way to over
come this condition is through a
treatment of the general system.
We have the treatment, and we
are 50 positive it will produce the
results we claim for it that we
will supply it to any one with
the understanding that we will
return to them every penny paid
us in every instance where the
treatment is not in every way
satisfactory and beneficial to
them.
We want you to try Rexall Mu-
ca-Tone, which is a scientifically
devised Alternative tonic and body
builder, it's action being to aid
the body in its effort to re-estab-
lish the natural and healthy func-
tons Of the mucous membranes.
Rexall Mucu-Tone thus acts to
expel the catarrhal poison" re-
store the mucous cells to good
health, tone up the whole body,
allay inflammation, remove con-
gestion and stimulate the sys-
tenn to healthy activity. 1t is
splendid for aiding in the build
ing up of flesh and muscle tissue
and removing weakness.
Come to our store and get a
hottie of Mucu-Tone, and after
giving it a reasonable trial, if you
are not satisfied, simply tell us
so, and we will hand back your
money without question. Surely
nothing could be more fair than
this. Rexall Mucu-Tone com s
in two sizes, SO cents and $1.0o.
Remember you can obtain Rexall
