One farmer has put in a demonstration plot oi alfalfa, which, although it was little uneven when it came up, has made an excellent growth and is gong into the winter in very good shape.

Most of ihe owners of these orchards finished pruning their orchards, follow ine the methods outlined at the de moastruous One peach grower went over his entire orchard of about eight hundred Peech trees R second time be cause the agent found little faalt with the way he had done it the first tune. Three spray ing demonstrations were given.
 Three farmers have sown cover crops in their orchards, which were suggest ed hy the county agent. These have all made good growth, and will fur. uish considerable amount of mater iul to be powed under in the spring,

TX -fELY POINTERS FOR
w. 80 ORCHARDS AND GARDEN
April 5th to 18th

Radishes, to grow well, must grow
fast.
Beets that were sown in frames in
midwinter may now be transplanted
to the garden.
Have a good vegetable garden and
cut your grocery bill in half.
Do not neglect the mulching of
your Strawberries. This is the time
for it and it is an important pro-
cess.
Plant carrots, satisfy and parsnips
now for use next fall and winter.
Requiring practically the same treat
ment and becoming ready for use at
the same time, all may be planted on
the same row.
Lima beans are much less hardy
than are snap beans and to get a
good stand of lima beans, do not
plant them until the ground is
thoroughly warm.
In selecting varieties of snap beans
for planting, choose the stringless
sorts. They produce abundantly and
are much more desirable for serving
on the table.
The growing of vegetables for the
local market offers profitable returns
to the man who produces good
product and places it on the marker
in a neat and attractive form.
Give the orchard thorough plow-
ing and fertilize it well if you wisf
it to do it's best for you.
Sow celery seed now for trans
planting in August. 1t is necessary
to SOW the seed early in order to
get strong, stocky plants. Prepare
the seed bed thoroughly and keep
it partly shaded with a lath or brush
screen so that it will not dry out.
Now is the time to lay plans for
fall exhibitions of fruit and veget-
ables. Every county could make 8
magnificent display of orchard ant
garden products at the county and
state fairs if people would give at
tenton to the matter during sum
mer. Such displays stimulate inter-
est and may be strongly educational
A garden of one-quarter to one
half acre is sufficient for an average
family and should produce enough
vegetables for the use throughout the
| entire year. This fact is brought out
in a new Farmers Bulletin (No
64O entitled, "The Home Garden in
the South" published by the United
Statcs Department of Agriculture

the road building upon some more
selfish and less reasonable ground.
But, the great majority of those who
opposed it are men who are face to
face with a nameless dread. They
are asking what will the year bring
forth" They see no clear sailing
ahead of the ship. They are depressed
disheartened and fearful; this con-
dition would today cause most of
them to turn down we'll nigh any
proposition that put on more taxes,
even when it seems sure thing
that it would pay in the long run.
| believe their fears have greatly ex-
aggerated the dangers. | believe the
bond issue would have made easy
money in this county. l believe that
almost every opponent the bond issue
had Tuesday would, if the issue had
carried, been glad of it in years
time. But-the fact | have stated
above is none the less true-our peo-
pie are troubled; fearful; timid.
They have often asked for fish and
been given serpent. Two years
from now such a movement as that
made Tuesday would carry hands
down, provided general conditions
make decided Improvement.

CALOMEL SALIVATES
AND MAKES YOU SICK
Acts like dynamite on sluggish liver
and you lose a DAYS work.

There's no reason why a person
should take sickening, salivating cal
omel when SO cents buys large bot
tie of Dodson's Liver Tone-a per-
feet substitute for calomel.
1t is pleasant, vegetable liquid
which will start your liver just as
surely as tilomel, but it doesn't make
you sick and can not salivate.
Children and grow folks can take
Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.
Calomel is dangerous drug. 1t is
mercury and attacks your bones. Take
dose of nasty calomel today and
you will feel weak, sick and nause-
ated tomorrow. Don't lose days
work. Take a spoonful of Dodson's
Liver Tone instead and you will wake
up feeling great. No more bilious
ness, constipation, sluggishness,
headache, coated tongue or sour
stomach. Your druggist says if you
don't find Dodson's Liver Tone acts
better than horrible calomel your
money is waiting for you.

Of the large number of Employee
in the Excelsior Knitting Mills, not
one of them voted against the BOND
Issue for permanent road building.
1t is often said that the mill employ
ees and the mill management are
constantly opposed to each other. We
have felt this to be more a figment
IN the brain of certain consciousness
politicians than fact that could be
demonstrated. The case at the Knit
ting Mill is proof of the falsity oft
repeated charge. Mr.. Shepard Nichol-
son, by his uniform fair treatment.
by his liberal and unselfsh attitude
towards the people in the employ
ment of the Excelsior Mill has de-
monstratcd that there may be, often
Is, the fullest confidence between the
management and the operators in the
mills. Mr.. Nicholson, in the very
beginning of the movement for good
roads, took great interest in forward
ing the movement. Contrary to the
charge so often made by political
trlcksters, that the operatives and
management could never see their
interest in the same direction. Mr..
Nicholson had with him every single
vote cast by the employees at the
Excelsior Mill Tuesday. 1t speaks
well for him and it speaks well for
the operatives and employees. Why
should there not be this mutual re-
spect, cooperation and good will? 1t
would be more commonly seen if
there were less lying politicians who
make it a business Of going ahovt
injecting false and misleading IDEAS
into the heads of the operatives.

CANADA WOULD.
 WELCOME PEACE
But Will Continue to Make Sacrifice Until Militarism of Germany
 Has Been Broken.

NEW YORK, Dec. 23.-Premier Borden, of Canada, speaking hefore the Canadian parliament yesterday, declared that Canada would oppose an inconclusive peace being arranged between the European nations. He asserts that the Dominion has made many sacrifices and will continue to do so until the enemy nations of the empire ahve been forced to seek peace which would be lasting.
 Canada has now a force of more than two hundred thousand men in Europe and is raising another army of one hundred thousand men which will be ready for the spring cam paign. Premier Borden asserts that the Dominion can raise a half million men in defense of the empire.
 Premier Borden stated that Can ada would welcome peace but that the demands of Germany as indicated by the Imperial Chancellor in his de- swer to the German Socialists pre- cluded all possibility of peace for the present.

It is safe to say that the Liberty Theatre will be crowded tonight when the drawings for the turkeys which have been on exhibition in the Lib erty window during the past week will be held. Tickets have been given away with each admission and cor responding numbers will be drawn tonight which will determine who are holders of the lucky tickets. Four tickets will be drawn, the first to receive the thirty pound gobbler and the second a fifteen pound turkey. Twenty-four hours time will be al- lowed for the holders of the tickets to claim their birds, and should they fail to do 50 the turkeys will go to the holders of the other tickets as drawn. In addition to the drawing, the management states that an unu- sually fine program has been arrang- ed for tonight.
