Never since we can remember
have the newspapers of the delta
been so persistent in their efforts to
get the farmers off of that all-cottOn
notion to diversity their crops by
raising corn, hay and peanuts, back
ed up with hogs and cattle. The
cause Of this is, of course, the pres
ence of the boil weevil. and we wish
10 say that If these pests get as bad
in the delta as they have been in
many counties of this, as we'll az
other states, the wise farmer will
profit by listening to the advice of
those who have figuratively ,,gone
through the mill "-Woodville Re-

Dangers of Draft.

Drafts feel best when we are hot and
perspiring. just when they are most
dangerous and the result is Neuralgia,
Stiff Neck. Sore Muscles or sometimes
an attack OF Rheumatism. In such
cases apply Sloan's Liniment. 1t slim
ulates circulation to the sore and pain
full part. The blood flows freely and
in . short time the stiffness and pain
leaves. Those suffering from Neural
gis or Neuralgia Headache will find
one or two applications of Sloan's
L;niment will give grateful relief. The
agonizing pain gives way to . sting
ling sensation Of comfort and warmth
and quiet rest and sleep is possible.
Good for Neuritis too. Price csc at
