your liver as surely as calomel

Pleasant Valley Farmers Act.

At an enthusiastic meeting of
the Pleasant Valley Farmers
Club on Monday afternoon. it
was decided that the members
OF the club sell no cotton seed
for 30 days, and it is probable
that at the next meeting the
time will be extended to 60 DAYS.
1t was decided to give 4Oc per
hundred for cotton picking un-
less the price of cotton ad-
van ces to 10 cents per pound.
The members of the club will
also hold their cotton Just as
long as possible, and they were
almost unanimously in favor of
a law limiting the cotton acreage
for next year. They were also
heartily in favor of the ''Buy a
bale" movement which has been
begun in a great number of
towns and cities in the South.

Lack Of Competent Operation a Men,

Cities often spend thousands of dol
lars upon the construction of a water
publication plant or sewage disposal
works and then place in charge of it's
operation a political appointee with no
claim to technical knowledge. The
evils of this practice We're commented
upon in a recent paper by DR.. Allan j..
Mclaughlin of the United States pub
lie health service. He said in part:
1.-The greatest obstacle to proper Op-
Grafton and control of plants has been
the difficulty of securing the right man
to place in charge of the plant. The
best type of man for this position is Il
graduate in sanitary engineering. He
will not only be conversant with the
mechanical details of the plant. but will
be able to adjust his chemicals accord
ing to the constituents and needs Of
the raw water. Most important Of all.
he will be able to make daily bacteri-
illogical examinations to determine the
efficiency of publication. Nearly all
the disasters due to sewage polluted
water supplies which have occurred
were due to lack Of daily b%acteri0log-
ical knowledge Of the public supply or
the inefficient operation of plants by
unskilled men. The employment Of
such a graduate is economy even in
small cities. "-Engineering Record.

Chronic Iron Ore,

Deposits Of chronic iron ore occur In
Maryland and the adjacent portion Of
Pennsylvania. in North Carolina and In
Wyoming, but the only deposits oper-
ated in the United States within re-
cent years are in California. Numerous
deposits have been reported in thirty
two counties of that state according to
the United States geological survey.
and many of them could be worked II
the demand for the ore and its value
warranted exploitation. The available
deposits. with much in reserve, largely
exceed the local demand for refractory
material in a field extending as far east
as the Rocky mountains.
