SHOWERS KEEP LABOR
oQI Of COTTON FIELD
JACKSON WRITER PREDICTS 2oo,-
900 BALES MORE THAN
1918 CROP.

Jackson, Miss, Aug. 29.-Showery
weather during the past week has
greatly retarded the picking of the
cotton crop. The showers have been
general over good portion of the
state, and, while there have been only
few instances of heavy precipitation,
the rains have kept labor out of the
fields.
In some localities the rainfall has
been sufficiently heavy to cause some
damage to the staple, especially during
the past few days when violent down.
pours have beat out the open bolls.
The fight on the weevil is practically
at an end, and confidence is now felt
that, with ordinary good weather dur
ing the picking season, and favorable
prospects for top crop, Mississippi's
total yield will be at least 10000 bales
in excess of last year.

MINER CONSTIPATION
DANGEROUS

Constipation in summertime is more
dangerous than in the fall, winter or
spring. The food you eat is often con-
taminated and is more likely to fer
ment in your stomach. Then you are
apt to drink much cold water during
the hote weather, thus injuring your
stomach. Collie, Fever, Ptomaine Pois-
oning and other ills are natural re-
suits. Po-Do-Lax will keep you well,
as it increases the Bile, the natural
laxative, which rids the bowels Of the
congested poisonous waste. Po-Do-
Lax will make you feel better. Pleas
