I CHEERFUL NEWS
For Feeble Old People.

AS one grows old the waste of the
system becomes more rapid than re-
pair, the organs act more slowly and
less effectually than In youth, the cir
culation is poor, the blood thin and
digestion weak.
Vinol, our delicious cod liver and
iron tonic without oil, is the ideal
strengthener and body-bullder for old
folks, for 1t contains the very ele-
ments needed to rebuild wasting It's
sues and replace weakness with
strength. Vinol also fortifies the sys-
tenn against colds and thus prevents
pneumonia.
A grand niece of Alexander Hamil-
ton over eighty years of age once
remarked: "Vinol is a god-send to old
people, Thanks to Vinol | have a
hearty appetite, sleep soundly, feel
active and we'll. 1t Is the finest tonic
and strength creator have ever
used"
If Vinol fails to build up the feeble
old people and create strength, we
will return your money. Hays & Field
Druggists, Hattiesburg, Miss.

and begins healing at once.

FARMER HIS OWN BUTCHER
That Was the oid-Fashioned Plan
and One Writer Considers It
Good One.

A contributor says that every farm.
er ought to make his own meat. At
present, he says, many are buying
meat at from thirty-five to fifty per
cent. above the cost. The time has
returned, he claims, when 1t will not
only pay every farmer to raise his own
meat, but to cure 1t for family use and
for sale besides. He goes on:
Five million dollars a year spent
for meat that might have been raised
on the farm, and the money kept at
home. is Kansas record. And it is
mistake. It shows We are advancing
backward in some things.
"The good old butchering days Of
our fathers ought to return, and with
them a full knowledge of how to cure
the meat in various ways. so when
the fresh was gone, we should have
some of the finest, most appetite sat
isfying meats on hand the year round.
kansas has awakened. and the state
agricultural college is leading by put
ting In killing and curing plant,
where all students may learn this use
full art from start to finish. What the
grain growing farmers Of the west
have done, the milk making owners Of
eastern farms have followed, and to
day there are thousands Of farmers
families that never see a home cured
ham or taste rasher Of bacon or q
slice of salt pork that is not got from
the meat dealer.
Having to spend money for meat,
many families lack a sufficiency Of
this sinew-making food, and who may
say that not few failures to make
good on the farm are due to lack Of
the meat which stimulates T'-Farm

TAFT IN MISS.

Jackson, Miss, Nov. 15.-The off
cial election returns still are missing
from Z out of the 10 counties in Mis-
sissippi, but with the full return in
hand of the secretary of state from
70 counties it is demonstrated that all
three of the constitutional amend
ments voted on in Mississippi were de-
feated by overwhelming majorities.
In the 70 counties the total presi-
Dental vote was as follows:
Democratic electors .54,7S9
Progressive electors ,..... 3,511
Republicans electors ..... 1851
Socialist electors ......... 2,034
If this proportion is maintained in
the seven missing counties Taft ran
last ON the ticket in Mississippi, and
good many votes behind Debs, So
cialist.
A peculiar feature of the vote 80 far
counted in this state is that the fifth
man in the list of electors for each
ticket received the highest number of
votes.

Decline IN FRUIT GROWING
Americans Seem to Be Losing Either
the Inclination or Skill That
10 Requisite.

A recent census report shows that
in spite Of the great increase in pop
ulation the output of deciduous fruit
merely held its own during the last
decade. The area planted to small
fruits actually declined more than
ten per cent. and the total produc-
ton Of small fruits shows. falling
off.
Are Americans losing the skill or
patience necessary to raise fruit1
Abandonment of this field of pro-
duction can scarcely be thoughtful
and voluntary, for market prices go
higher and marketing facilities bet
ter. Some other reason must be
sought.
Fruit raising, like most other oc-
equations, is more exacting than it
was a few years ago. The day when
a man might plant a few acres to
apple trees, for instance, and then
pay no further attention to them ex-
cept at picking time, has passed.
Trees must be trimmed, sprayed and
cultivated if the fruit is to be either
marketable or even consumable with
pleasure at home. Fruit raising as
an industry has developed, like every
other industry.
Possibly fruit raisers, as a coun-
try-wide class, have not kept pace.
Very few industries will thrive
without encouragement.-Cleveland

interest enough as the men passed
