LABOR SAVING FARM MACHIN,
ERY TO AID SOUTHERN
PROGRESS.

Following the building of many schoo
houses and the demonstration work Of
Prof. Knapp, southern farmers ant
planters have shown a determination
to have the best labor-saving machin
cry and to follow the most moderr
farming methods known, Proof Of
this is found in the big trainload Of
Rumely power farming machinery which
passed through Greenwood last week,
journeying through Dixie. The ship
ment, which is the largest of its kind
on record to enter the South, consisted
of tractors, gaspull tractors, steam
engines, engine gang plows, automatic
balers and Rumely-Adams kerosene,
gas stationary engines.
Three carloads of machinery were un
loaded in this city, in charge of Mr.. W.
H, Scott, salesman, who informs The
Commonwealth that it is the purpose
Of his Company to establish a perma-
nent distributing office and training
school in Greenwood, provided our
planters manifest sufficient interest in
the mater to justify maintaining such
an institution here.
The trainload started from La Porte
and came via Chicago and Cairo, ILL.,,
thence to Memphis, Tenn, and Jack
son, Miss, on the Illinois Central rail
road. From Jackson to Meridian,
Miss, the Southern Railway carried
the load to Montgomery, Ala, thence
to Atlanta, Ga, the train moved over
the Western Alabama railroad. From
Atlanta ro Charlotte, N. c., the Sea-
board is used. Stops for exhibition
were made at Decatur, Kankakee, Du.
Quoin and Anna, ILL.,, Nashville, Tenn,
Greenwood, Miss, Demopolis and Sell
ma, Ala, and Athens, Ca, in addition
to the points named above. A private
car was attached for the convenience
of the officials of the sales, traffic and
advertising and other departments,
who made the trip,
Vice President J. J. Rumely ac-
companied the party. He is one of
the best business men in the United
States, and was delighted with our
magnificent Delta country, predicting
a great future for this section.
That the west and northwest are no
longer the only field where power
machinery may be used with profit is
now realized by wideawake farmers
and planters Of the South. They rec
ognize that such machinery meaning
steady, reliable, mechanical power
must replace the mule, the horse and
incompetent human help that better
and quicker tillage, proper crop rota-
ton, richer haryests and improved
land values must result from tractor

CALOMEL IS UNSAFE.


If your liver is not working just
right, you do not need to take a chance
on getting knocked all out by dose Of
caIomeI. Go to S. L. Raines drug store
who sells Dodson's Liver Tone, and
pay 50 cents for a large bottle. You
will get a harmless vegetable remedy
that will start your liver without vio-
ence, and If it does not give complete
satisfaction the druggist will refund
your money with a smile.
If you buy bottle of Dodson's Liy-
er Tone for yourself of your children,
you have insured your family relief
from attacks Of constipation, bilious
ness, lazy liver and headache. 1t is as
beneficial and safe for children as for
adults. A bottle of Dodson's Liver
Tone is something every man or wom-
an should keep in the house. Your
money is safe because you can return
the bottle if 1t fails to satisfy.

NO APRIL FOOL

Since the opening of our new Theatre
we have been working increasingly to land
an engagement with good strong Musical
Comedy attraction, and at last we have
succeeded.
On Tuesday, April first, we will have
'The Red Rose" We have been closely
following the engagements of this show
through the West for the last thirty days
and note that they have pleased packed
houses wherever they have gone, and that
criticisms from the many theatres in the
largest cities have been of the highest Or
der. The company consists of 60 people,
and our New York booking agents advise
us that "The Red Rose" is most gorgeous
production and will certainly please.
To induce this attraction to cancel
elsewhere and come to Greenwood, which
is off their route and which means much
added expense to them, we have had to
sign up on big guarantee basis. How
ever, knowing the reputation of this pro-
duction and realizing that our patrons are
really hungry for some good music, we
are willing to take the risk. WE WANT
THE BEST FOR GREENWOOD.
So far as we know, this will be the last
; big attraction of the season at the Green
wood Theatre.

BRONCHITIS CONQUERED
Royersford. Pa. Man Tells How.

At this season of year with such
sudden changes, it is so easy to take
cold. and almost before one is aware
there is inflammation in the bronchial
tubes-a hard cough and unless check
ed in time chronic pulmonary troubles
may result.
Townsend Young of Royersford, Pa.
says: "A severe bronchial trouble con-
tracted caused me much difficulty about
breathing. Ny chest felt clogged up
and there was considerable soreness.
I tried different remedies without help;
but l am glad to say that Vinol cured
my bronchial trouble which had lasted
for three months. My breathing is all
right and the soreness entirely gone
from my chest"
.Vinol contains the curative, healing
principles of fresh Gods livers with
out OLD and tonic iron. We guarantee
| it to be delicious in taste and to salts
