If there is anything in the
world that should be made of
the choicest ingredients and with
the utmost scientific skill, it is
ourmedicinal preparations which
can be instrumental for health
and happiness or detrimental
and injurious, and it is deplor'
able fact that people are some
times persuaded to accept sub
stitute for SCOTS Emulsion
when those recommending such
substitutes know the difference,
but for their mercinary profit,
disregard or ignore the conse-
quences of their act.
The popularity Of the cura-
tive benefits of SCOTS Emulsion
has inspired many limitations,
most of which contain alcohol,
wines or opiates to please the
palate and stimulate the spirits,
but physicians everywhere in
sist on the purity and wholesom-

ing that it contains only pure,
wholesome cod liver oil, made
palatable and predigested by

Too Many Large Farms In Marion
County.

There are too many large
farms in Texas and the average
Texas farmer is trying to do too
much" said Judge S. A. Lind
sey Of Tyler, who as chairman OF
the Texas Farm Life Commits
sion, is directing the work Of
that body.
The Commission will begin an
investigation into the causes
that maintain this undesirable
condition at an early date and
Marion county will come within
the scope of the inquiry as the
Federal census report shows 26
farms in this county that con-
tain more than 500 acres.
The average size of a farm in
Marion county is 164 acres,
which is 1851 acres over the
average. We have a total of
1,341 farms in this county while
, the total number for the state is
417,77O.
The average size of Texas
farm is 900 acres, while those of
Ohio and Indiana contain II and
78 acres, respectively, according
| to Federal census figures rec
emily compiled. There are %,
$50 farms and ranches in this
state that contain more than 500
acres and Texas ranks first with
other States in the Union in this
respect. A large number of
these tracts are said to be held
for speculative purposes and
only small portion are being
used. The classification by size
