Smith Should Raise More Live Stock.

Thousands of acres Of good lands
in the South are unused and profit
less. This land can be proftably
used in raising beef cattle, and rails
inc can be added to other farm op-
eratlons for the purpose of building
IN and maintaining the soil. Cattle
in the South can be pastured from
seven to ten months in thear and an
abundance of good feeds are avail
able for tn, short feeding period,
ranging from 100 to 120 days. Di-
versifed agriculture is the secret of
fully successful farming, and it
should include, in addition to the
production on the farm of all food
supplies for man and beast, one or
more market crops beside the recog-
! nized one of the particular section,
and stock-raising should always be
included in any plans.
Stress of circumstances, Is or 80
years ago, prevenned large portion
from the work of overcoming the
tremendous inroads upon its supply
of livestock resulting from the war.
At the close of hostiiities and for Is
or 20 years afterwards the South de-
voted much of its agricultural ener-
gies to cotton growing as the quick
est means Of recovery from poverty,
It has been a long time recovering
from that cotton-groWing habit ahd
its gradual return toward diversifi-
cation has not included the much-to-
be-dssired attention to livestock rails
ing justified by conditions in the
country. The South is not raising
as much livestock per capita as it
raised ten years ago. However, the
establishment of packing-houses at
numbnr Of points has been a d.
rect encouragement to stockraising.

WHAT'S TIE REASON?
Many Scotland Neck People
in Poor Health Without
Knowing the Cause.

There are scores of people who
drag out miserable existence With
out realizing the cause Of their sui
fering. Day after day they are
yacked with backache and headache;
suffer from nervousness, dizziness,
weakness, languor and depression.
Likely the kidneys have fallen be-
hind in their work Of filtering the
blood and that is the root of the
trouble. Look to your kidneys,
assist them in their work-give
them the help they need. You can
use no better remedy than Doan's
Kidney Pills.

a sufferer in this locality.

CHICAGO POLICE MONUMENT

Chicago.-Most readers probably
have read of the Haymarket riot
which occurred in Chicago twenty-five
years ago. During this trouble the
first bomb was thrown in Chicago
Seven policemen were killed and
many persons injured. The death SEN
tence was given to four men and
three were sent to prison. Shortly
after a monument of a policeman was
erected in memory of those who lost
their lives. The inscription carved
on the side of the monument reads:

many miracles and on its shores were
many cities and villages, almost all of
which now, with the exception of I'll
berias, are uninhabited
From the hills surrounding Tiberias
one can look down upon the Sea of
Galilee, blue lake, pear-shaped in de-
sign, and hemmed about with a vast
ring of green hills. The waters of the
lake abound now as in New Tesla
ment times with variety of excellent
fish, and boats almost as primitive as
in the days of Christ are employed in
catching them.
Solitary fishermen may also be seen
wading out in the blue waters. These
men carry a circular net of fine Irvine,
small in the mesh and weighted with
pieces of lead around the edge. To the
center of the net long cord it fasten-
ed. The fisherman holds the net
over his left arm and wades waist
deep in the water. When he espies a
shoal of fish he casts the net over
them and the leaden weights cause it
to sink. Then the rope is pulled and
the leaden weights are drawn tOgeth-
er, imprisoning the fish in the net.
