Cooperation in Potato Growing.

AS a direct result of the work
done by the Industrial Department
of the N, G. & St. L. Railway among
the potato growers of West Tonnes
see in urging cooperation, there is
a sweet potato crop in that section
this year of $4,000 bushels. This
is only one of the striking examples
of what this road is trying to do for
the farmers along it's lines to pro-
mote better agricultural conditions.
The crop at Gleason is 5000 bush
els; at Mckenzie, $4,000 bushels; at
Dresden, 5000 bushels; at Jackson,
5000 bushels; at Huntingdon, 5000
bushels. The average yield was It's
bushels to the acre. The potatoes
are being stored in modern potato
houses, kiln dried and held for the
market. w. r. Hawks, of Gleason,
is president of the Potato Growers
Federation and j. G. Sasser, of Nc
Kenzie, is secretary. Before the CO.
operative work was started the po-
tato growers of that section were
working as individual growers and
frequently failed to get the top
market price.

TO TREAT CATARRH

Breathing Germ Killing Air Endorsed By
Actual Results.
The discovery OF Hyomei has wrought
a wonderful change in the treatment of
catarrh.
Prior to three years ago the medicine
ordinarily employed in the cure of this
disease were drugs, sprays, lotions, etc.
In some instances they benefited, but
the improvement was not lasting.
With Hyomei you take into the air
passages of your throat and head bal
samic air that goes into the minutest
cells, and should effectually kill all
germs aud microbes of catarrh. It's
purpose is to enter the blood with the
oxygen, killing the germs in the blood,
and restore health to the whole system.
Many astonishing testimonials have been
received from those who heve been
helped by Hyomei.
A complete outfit is inexpensive and
includes an inhaler, dropper and suf-
ficient Hyomei for several weeks treat
ment.
Perhaps the strongest evidence that
can be given to doubters, is the fact that
divers Red Cross Drug Store have SO
much faith in Hyomei that they sell
every package under positive guaran-
tee to refund the money if it does not
relieve. ADV.

The Greater Gift.
(By Edwin Hunt.)

They talk of the love of women,
and tell of the passions grand; of
the girls they have met and want
to meet, in all this wide, wide land.
They tell me that love is a funny
thing, and its courses run deep and
still; they claim if it's strong and
hard enough, it will either cure or
kill. Now l am immune from a love
like that, but l know another kind,
that strikes and thrills me to my
soul, that ties even closer will bind.
IT'S the love of little baby; tbs
given to me every day; tbs gift
that | prize 'yond all this earth, tbs
a thing bout which | pray. When
little child will open his arms, and
put his trust in men, my heart it

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear There is only one
way to cure deafness. and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inhamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result. and unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh. which is
nothing but an iuflaned condition of the mucous
surfaces.

Investigations of the cave-in of the
new subway under construction in
Seventh Avenue, in which seven per-
sons were killed and about eighty
five were injured, was in progress to-
day. The accident, which took place
yesterday was still attributed to a
collapse of the wooden surface of the
street as a result of dynamite blast
The inquiries were conducted by the
Public Service Commission, District
Attorney, and other city and state
officials. Mayor Mitchell declared
that all the subway construction now
in progress thorough the city should
be inspected TO learn if there was dam
ger of similar occurance elsewhere.
The district attorney said that he
did not as yet know whether there
was any criminal action to be taken,
but the investigation was said to have
convinced Coroner Feinberg and the
assistant district attorneys that the
disaster was due to negligence.
