tons in Mitchell county compiled from
replies received from farmers located
in every section of the county. The re-
port shows that the condition OF corn
makes more than 25 per cent of a nor
NAL crop very doubtful. Much of the
corn that gave little promise of nlatur-
ity a month ago would have probably
produced a fair yield had II escaped
the frost of a week ago Sunday. A
vast amount of corn was hopelessly de-
iayed at that time. however.
The oat yield is most bountiful. The
average will run from forty to fifty bu-
shells to the acre and sixty to sixty five
bushels are common. Winter wheat
ranges from fifteen to twenty-five bu-
shells to the acre. Timothy is fair
crop, ranging from three to seven hu-
shells to the acre. Early potatose viii

not as good.

1t is of interest to note that this same
farm was purchased twenty-five years

Slawson. who, therefore. shows the neat
profit of $25,475 on an investment that

s. W. Garrett. clerk of the supreme

date for governor on the republican
ticket. Recent political events have
strengthened CARROTS chances his
friends say. He says he will not make
any decision what he will do until the
first of the year.
Regarding a third term for Gov
ernor Clarke. the politicians say that
the possibility is getting narrower
every day. The governors friends say
that he does not intend to make an
other primary fight. He has ALREADY
made four fights for the governorshp
two in the primary and two IN the
general election-they point out. Wh!le
the governor enjoys a good fight over
a big issue. his friends say that he does
not enjoy fight for additional honors
in politics.
Spirit Of Primary.
Under the spirit of the primary, the
state convention must make the nomi-
nation for governor from the list OF
those who made the primary Hght, the
politicians say Therefore they pre-
dict that there is but little chance
that the convention will discard the
candidates at the primary and chose
an outsider-altho it might have the
power TO do so.
The dry forces consider Harding as
the wet candidate. The wet faction
considers Cosson, Allen and Garrett as
the especially dry candidates. The six,
if they are all IN the race. will divide
up the vote. But, the TEN perance fac
ton predicts that there VIII be ma
jority of dry delegates in the state con-

THE TRUTH
ABOUT CATARRH
A Germ Disease That Can Be Stopped
by Killing Germs Which Couse II.


A good many claims are made for
this and that remedy for Catarrh and
doubtless, II you are sufferer from
this disease. you have yourself tried
many of them and received no perma-
nent benefit.
The fact remains however, that there
is a way to get rid Of catarrh forever
and certainly the method most likely
to succeed and to cure where all else
has failed is one that your own drug
gist has SO much faith in that he will
sell it to you on positive guarantee
of success or money back.
That's exactly the way that A. T.
Elder and many other leading drug
gists in this vicinity are selling
Hyomei, the great Catarrh germ killer,
a wonderful medicated but pleasant
smelling air which you breathe into
your nose. throat and lungs thru
small inhaling device that druggists
furnish with it. Hyomei is made from
the pure healing oil Of Eucalyptus,
combined with other powerful germici-
DIAL ingredients and it not only clears
up the head and air passages and
| heals the sore, swollen infiamed mem
branes of your nose and throat but It
goes farther and does more. It's pene-
trating air is absolute and positive
| death to every catarrh germ in your
system. 1t destroys them utterly. And
when the germs go the disease and all
! its disagreeable symptoms stop. II you
have Casar.h breathe Hyomei. It's the
| only sensible thing to do and you gain
nothing and lose much by waiting un-
til the cold, damp season sets In. Cure
that case Of Catarrh now while you
have the weather in your favor. Don't
trust to memory. Cut this out OF the
paper now end take it into your drug
gist the very next time you pass his
store. Insist on getting the complete
| outfit which includes the rubber in
haler as it Is very necessary to use
] this inhaler to get best results.
