HOW To CURE A
CHRONIC COUGH
Told in the Following Letter
by a Jackson Man Who
Knows from Experience.
His Word Is Good,

jackson, Miss.-"I am a carpenter,
and the grippe left me not only with a
chronic cough, but / was rundown,
worn out and weak. / took all kinds of
cough syrups but they did me no good.
finally got so weak was not able to
do days work, and coughed so much 1
was alarmed about my condition. One
evening read about Vinol and decided
to try it. Before / had taken quarter
of bottle felt better, and after taking
two bottles my cough is entirely cured,
all the bad symptoms have disappeared
and ] have gained new vim and energy"
JOHN L. DENNIS, I'll Lynch Street.
jackson, Miss.
The reason Vinol is so successful in
such cases is because the active medic
inal principles of cod liver oil contained
in Vinol rebuilds wasting tissues and
supplies strength andvigor to the nerves
and muscles while the tonic iron and
wine assist the red corpuscles of the
blood to absorb oxygen and distribute
it through the system, thus restoring
health and strength to'the weakened,
diseased organs Of the body.
If Vinol fails to help you, we return
your money.

War and Food Prices

The ''war business" of the United
States in the. first five months of the Eu
ropean conflict, from August l, 1914, tt
January 1, 1915, is estimated by expert.
to be more than five hundred millions.
Ia estimating "war business" it has
been necessary to include not only the
astual orders from European govern
ments for arms and munitions of war;
not only the increased demands for food
to feed the European armies and their
helpers, but also the vast volume of
trade brought to the United States
by the shutting off of European compe-
tition.
The United States has secured new
customers in Europe, Asia and South
America, because the European manu-
facturers were unable by reason OF the
war TO supply the customary goods.
War is the basis of most of the export
trade in this country now, whether the
export be wheat or gunrowder.
All of the gigantic trade done in bread
stuffS. particularly wheat, in the five war
months has been war trade. This bread
stuff trade from August to January
amounted to about two hundred millions
dollars, of which wheat alone made up
one hundred and twenty millions.
AS result, apparently, of the demand
in Europe for American wheat which was
a bumper crop, the price of wheat has
jumped to record heights, and as conse-
quence the President has ordered an in
quiry. The purpose of the quest is to
determine whether or not gamblers in
food products are cornering, pooling or
combining artificially to raise prices of
food commodities. If any persons are
caught engaging in the nefarious bus
mess of advancing prices of food TO their
profit. the grand jury will be invited to
consider their cases.
If there are in Chicago such predatory
gentry, any effort that the Federal au-
thorities makes to corner the cornerers,
will be encouraged by the public, who
are already burdened by high prices and
war taxes direct and indirect. But it
does appear that the advance in prices
of wheat is due to natural economic
causes. Other nations are short of wheat,
we have it in abundance and they want it.
If the farmers, seeing their opportunity,
are holding out for higher prices, who
can blame them? Instead of an embargo
ON wheat, which is being discussed,
good suggestion to follow was offered at
a recent convention in Kansas City.
THAT the United States'', reads the
Twill be called upon for the
next year or Two, perhaps longer, to fur
nish very much larger per cent of the
food supplies of the world is fact: and
that we can supply 1t is equally true.
That each acre of cultivated land must
produce more crops. and that more acres |
Of land must be brought under cultiva- |
ton is a condition that must be met"
That is good advice. Raise more
wheat and sell them all they want abroad. I

Wild Geese Delay Trains,

Wild geese congregating along the
right of way of the Nevada, California
and Eastern railroad running out of
this city in the last week have inter
fered seriously with the operation of
trains. So numerous are the birds
that several times it has been almost
necessary to stop the trains that the
birds might not be run over.
The engineer has fastened their
flight by often blowing the whistle.
When the great flocks of geese rise
from the track the. beating of their
wings can be heard distinctly several
miles away.
The geese have been feeding in
neighboring grain fields and along the
marshes of Klamath lake. The lack
of sand on the marshes, which the
geese require as an aid to digestion, is
reported to sportsmen to have driven
them to the railroad, where sand is
used as ballast.-Lakeview (Ore.) Dis
