right or wrong start in 1915 will
make or break most farmers in the
Cotton States. We are all facing q
crisis on cotton. Cotton credit is up
set. The supply merchant cannot ad-
vance supplies on 1915 cotton. You

that have made up most of your store
debt in the past.
A good piece Of garden ground,
rightly planted, rightly tended and
kept planted the year round, can be
made to pay half your living. 1t will
save you more money than you made
on the best five acres Of cotton you
ever grew! But it must be a real
garden, and not the mere one-plant-
ing patch in the spring and fall.

Mother! If ChiId's
Tongue Is Coated
If cross, feverish, cOnstipated, bilious
stomach sour, give california
Syrup of Figs"

A laxative today saves a sick child
tomorrow. Children simply will not
take the time from play to empty
their bowels, which become clogged
up with waste, liver gets sluggish; ;
stomach sour.
Look at the tongue, mother! If
coated, or your child is listless, cross
feverish, breath bad, restless, doesn't
eat heartily, full of cold or has sore
throat or any other children's all
ment, give teaspoonful of "Califor-
MIA Syrup of Figs" then don't worry
because it is perfectly harmless, and
in a few hours all this constipation
poison, sour bile and fermenting
waste will gently move out the bow
els, and you have a we'll, playful
child again. A thorough "inside
cleansing" is oftimes all that is nee
essary. 1t should be the first trea.
ment given in any sickness.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups.
Ask your druggist for a 5O-cent bot
tie of California Syrup of Figs"
which has full directions for babies
children of all ages and for grown
ups plainly printed on the bottle.
Look carefully and see that it is
made by the california Fig Syrup
Company"

FEDERAL REVENUES
SHOW AN INCREASE

Washington, March 6.-Government
revenues have begun to show slight
Increase, due largely to the usual
spl-ng import business with conse-
9uent enlarged receipts erom Gus
toms. The treasury deficit, which a
few weeks ago was in the neighbor-
hood Oh So5,U00,000, has fallen to
about $SO,000,000 and in the next
few months there may be further
reduction.
Although treasury officials arc loath
to make any predictions when such
unusual conditions prevail, the expe-
rence of years has taught them to
figure on increased receipts from Gus
toms tlom about March 1 until the
end of the fiscal year in June. If the
increase is sufficient to keep the pre-
sent deficit at standstill, the income
may possibly wipe it out entirely.
Th, lime tor making income tax re-
turns has expired, but it will be
weeks before treasury officials are
able to estimate how the tax is to
act as a revenue producer this year.
Secretary McAdoo has estimated
that about $80,000,000 would be re-
ceived from this source, but condi-
tions have changed materially since
his estimate was made.
So far the emergency tax law has
failed to live up to expectations and
the postoffice department is running
behind it's usual business. Calcula-
tions made at the direction of Mr..
McAdoo, however, of revenue and
expenditures have differed widely at
different times.
The question of issuing Panama
Canal bonds has not been decided,
but it is understood that if there is
deficit Mr.. McAdoo will not hesi-
tate to use his authority to put out
such an issue.

Little Willie Knew.
(Philadelphia Telegraph.)


Congressman Robert M. Switzer, of
Ohio, smiled when the conversation
turned to the bright remarks occa
sionally made by the little folk. He
said he was reminded of an incident
that happened in his home state.
In prosperous rural community
the village doctor was also the super-
intendent of the Sunday school. Incl
IDENTIFY he taught a class of small
boys.
"Willie," impressively remarked
the doctor one Sunday afternoon to
bright-faced youngster, "can you
tell me what you must do inorder to
get to heaven?"
eyes, sir" was the prompt re-
sponse of William, "we must die"
"That is very true" said the doc
tor, encouragingly, "but can't you tell
me what we must do before we die?"
eyes, SIR was the stratling re-
joinder of little Willie; "we must get
sick and send for you."

SOME COW!
augusta Chronicle)


Hurne Cowan needs no minimum
wage law. She is a skilled worker
able to earn her living, and always
On the job. For the year ending
with February, she made $3.O4 a day,
every day in the week and ever,
week in the year, without even stop
ping for summer vacation.
Indeed, as they say in Barberton,
o., where she lives, grazes and chews
her cud, "Murne is some cow!" The
full extent of her bovinity may be
realized from the statement that in
these IL months she produced a.
COS pounds of milk and 1,O9S pounds
Of butter fat. Or, in less scientific
dairyman language. Murine gave g.
100 gallons of milk, containing
enough fat to make 1874 pounds of
the finest butter. That quantity of
milk, be it known, is 18 times the
weight of Murine herself, and the
butter alone weighing considerably
more than the gentle producer. Her
largest milk yield in "a hours was
1913 pounds, a little more than ten
gallons. In seven energetic days
she produces 565.8 pounds of milk,
containing 24.44 pounds of butter fat.
From this precise data it might
be surmised that Murine is not mere
ly an unusual cow, but that she re-
ceives unusual attention. If she liv-
"d on "recarious pickings and slept
in a cold and dirty stall and was
kicked around like houn' dawg by
an unsympathetic hired hand, she
wouldn't have worlds record for
bovine efficiency. Her stall is scrupu-
lously clean, with cement floor and
steampipes underneath it, and in
summer she is cooled by an electric
fan and protected from insect pests
by festoons of sticky fly paper. She
is fed regularly and daintily, and
milked four times a day.
All this expense for diet and per-
sonal service eats up half her gross
earnings, but she's still so profitable
that her owner, o. C. Barber, the
"match king" values her at $40 900
He bought her for little over $1OO.
The difference seems to indicate what
scientific dairying will do in bringing
cut all that is best in q cow.

had a few days of fine weather for
farm work and our people generally
have taken advantage of it to start
another crop, but the rain last night
and today will stop them for the
present.
The graveyard fences have re-
ceived coat of paint this week
which adds to the appearance as well
as preservation.
Miss Bonnie McCluney, one of the
teachers in the Sunnyside school has
been unwell for several days and her
classes are in charge of Miss Minnie
Fowler, until she is able to resume
her duties.
Camp Jeffries, u. C. Veterans is

may come before them.
Mr.. F. A. Goforth who got his
foot so badly injured. 1rnetime ago,

ficiently to be up and about again.
Rev. L. F. Boozer, who is teaching
at the fork between Pacolet and
Broad rivers, came up Saturday and
spent the weekend with us and at
tended services at Salem.
Our roads have been scraped and
the travelling public have been run
ming vehicles and automobiles with
some pleasure and satisfaction.
Last Sabbath we attended the flu
neral of Mr.. John Ross Mitchell al
Hickory Grove. He was highly es :.
teemed and an influential citizen of
that community. His family have
my deepest sympathy in this sorrow.
Wheat and oats sown last fall are
now looking very we'll, though for
in some few places they were frozen
! out by the cold weather.
The war in Europe is not attract
ing the attention of people as it once
did; they are getting used to it.
1t is, however, causing much specu-
| lation as to the outcome.
We have heretofore spoken briefly
but boldly upon the subject, and have
never yet had any reason to .hinx
that our analysis is not n ccoffS2t
one-we have forgotten God. AS
nations, states, communities and in
dividuals, we are changeable with
shameful ingratitude for the privi-
leges and blessings we enjoy. But
commercialism has largely taken the
place of christianity and the so-called
almighty dollar is more universally
and reverently worshipped than is
the true and living God.
The holy Sabbath is spent too often
in worldly employment and recrea-
tion, if not in more questionable
social functions, instead of its being
a time for sweet communion with
God attending upon the ordinances
| of His altar or at the family altar
or the more secluded confines of the
closet. But on the contrary, the
groaning upon Calvary and the
| thunderings of Mount Sinai are un-
| needed amidst the hum of machinery
the clicking dollars and the hurried
tramp of the busy millions, who are
in life's race solely for such worldly
honors and profits as can be accumu-
lated during the short time allotted
them to lay up treasures on earth
where moth and rust doth corrupt,
and where thieves break through and
steal. If such conditions, as we find
today at home and abroad, are not
responsible for the state of affairs,
then | have read my Bible in vain,
searching for the revealed will of
! God Vox

ton market had somewhat irregular
opening today. October being 6 points
lower in response to relatively easy
cables. while other months were UNI

night buying orders, inspired by the
details of any hitch in the foreign loan
negotiations and reports of unsettled
weather in the southwest Some of yes
terday's heavy sellers seemed to be
buying actfve4S after the call on the
unfayorable crop reports and active
months soon sold 9 to IL points net

able weather outlook, reports that Ger
man interests were arranging to
