ECZEMA THAT SPREADS

 Found Relief In saxo SaIve,

T had been troubled with weeping eczema for months and used many preparations for skin troubles without relief. The first application of Saxo Salve allayed the dreadful itching i'm mediately, and after further use my skin trouble entirely disappeared. Saxo Salve was just what I needed.-W. H. Glynn, Poughkeepsie, N, Y,
 In eczema the little vesicles or pim- pies are filled with a fluid that burns and tortuFes the skin the moment they are torn open by scratching. This causes it to spread.
 In such cases we can conscientious ly recommend our new skin remedy. SaXo Salve, for it's action on the skin in all forms of eczema and other dis tressing skin troubles is indeed mar Yeious

SMALLPOX EXPENSIVE.
Cost to City and Town Up to June
 S6,222-Other Bills to Pay.

The first case of smallpox appeared in the city about four months ago, and the expense to date totals a nice round sum, and there will be further expen- allure before the cases are all cleaned up. The city had spent, up to June ], S4,56S.70, aud that sum did not in clude Dr. Keating's salary, which has not been paid yet, nor the salary of the nurse at the isolation hospital The town, up to the same date, had spent $1,75412 for meats and groceries, etc., which makes a total spent by the city and town of S6,222.S2.
 Tuesday there were exactly % pa tients at the hospital, IS of whom are from the city, one from the town and one from Vernon. Monday evening one of the Chailfoux children of lower Main street was released, and by the last of the present week two others will be released. Indications tend to the belief that the patients from now on will be released rapidly.

broom corn and machinery for prepar- ing the brush was featured at the state fair in Macon. The apparatus was simple and inexpensive, the proceD not at al lcomplicated, and lively in terest was taken in the subject by the farmers visiting the fair; but the in dustry failed of foothold in that re- zion because not enough brush was produced in any one community dur ing subsequent seasons to create Q market. No reason appears why broom corn should not prove a profit able crop for this section provided market facilities are furnished Cult vation of the brush and preparation of it for market require, it Is said. about the same labor as corn, and the product averaging a ton to the acre varies in price between $50 per ton and $40, standing Just now at about slo0. If the Florence experiment is so made as to be reasonably conclusive it will prove valuable to the whole South, whether it argues for the new crop or against it.

BRooM-coRN GROWTH IN SOUTH.
1t is Hoped That an Experiment at Florence, S. C., Will Establish Con- clusiveIy It's PractieabIity or Fu- tiIity.

Cultivation of broom corn as a side line is urged on Southern farmers from time to time, but usually by type writera agriculturists, who neglect to inform their readers how, in the ab- sence of local product to advantage. pose of their product to advantage. Obviously the lack of an accessible market makes it impracticable for farmer, here an there to grow broom corn profitably. The industry can be established in a community only by agreement among growers which will insure the production locally of a suf- icient quantity of brush to create a market there ;and this seems to be the idea of the Florence Chamber of Commerce, which has induced a num-
 Der of Florence county farmers to plant this year experimental broom corn plots of a quarter acre each. A similar effort was made some years ago in middle Georgia An exhibit of

Norwich bulletin., 1912-06-12

We are sometimes asked by housewives if Fels-Naptha soap is as good for washing clothes in winter as in summer. Better, if that is possible.
 The best thing about Fels-Naptha is that YOU don't have to boil the clothes either winter or summer. And because boiling is more disagreeable in winter, Fels-Naptha is a qreater blessing then. In the winter doors and windows are closed, and the nauseous odor of boiling clothes cannot escape to the open air; then, too, steam loosens and wrinkles wall paper. And chapped hands are caused by dipping them in hot water and then exposing to the cold.
 You don't need hot water in washing with Fels-Naptha. But be sure and use 1t the Fels- Naptha way. Follow the direc- nons on the red and green wrapper
