In MemOriam.

Seborn B. Megerson was born
February 8, 1851, in Coocy county
Ala, and died near Ebeneezer
camp ground May 81. 1916. He
joined the M. P. church at Mt.
Zion during the ministry of Rev.
/. r. Strickland.
In the death of Seborn Meyer
son our community has lost one
of its oldest citizens, and good
man. After many months of
patient suffering the end came
peacefully, and quietly to this
simple and manly life that was
quiet, modest, and faithful and
true to every trust. And for the
comfort of relatives and friends,
who were not familiar with his
last few months, will say that
it was as clear of reconciliation
between God and man that writer
has ever seen. A few days be-
fore the end came he became
conscious and called his wife and
children to his bed. He gave
them a most affectionate fare
well requesting them to meet
him in heaven.
To his faithful wife l commend
our Heavenly Father as her only
comforter.

as your police juror, and wish to
say that in the four years / have

Uncle George at the helm, with
the assistance of our two road
commissioners (who, by the way,

TRY IT! SUBSTITUTE
FOR NASTY CALOMEL
Starts your liver without making
you sick and can not
salivate.

Every druggist in town-your drug
qst and eyerybody's druggist has noticed
a great falling-of in the sale of calomel.
They all give the same reason. Dodson's
Liver Tone is taking its place.
"Calomel IS dangerous and people know
It, while Dodson's Liver Tone is perfectly
safe and gives better results" said a
prominent local druggist Dodson's
Liver Tone is personally guaranteed by
every druggist who sells it. A large
bottle costs so cents, and if it fails TO
give easy relief in every case of liver
smggishness and constipation, you have
only to ask for your money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone Is a pleasant tast-
ing, purely vegetable remedy, harmless
to both children and adults. Take
spoonful at night and wake up feeling
fine: no biliousness. sick headache, acid
stomach or constipated bowels. It
doesn't grippe or cause inconvenience all
the next day like violent calomel. Take
dose of calomel today and tomorrow
YOU will feel weak, sick and nauseated
Don't lose a days work Take Dodson's
Liver Tone instead and feel fine, full of
vigor and ambition.

WORKING BUTTER

The main reason for work
ling butter is to thoroughly and
evenly incorporate the salt and
remove the excessive moisture.
If you use a combination churn
or one that has the workers IN
it the chances are that the but
Ter will be more evenlyworked.
The number of revolutions to
work the butter vary with the
condition and amount of the
butter. II there is a moderately
large amount of butter in the
churn comparatively few rev.
.olutions will accomplish the de-
sired result
Hard cold butter requires
great deal of working to pre-
vent a coarse body and the
tendency for notifies. Little eX-
cess moisture is present and
the salt diss0lves with difficult
". Some butter makers allow
the butter to stand 5 or 10 min
ates after the first working to
allow the salt to dissolve and
diffuse through the mass Of
butter. This is advisable a great
many times as it reduces the
amount of working and pre-
vents overWorking and a greasy
weakbodied product.
Salt that does not readily
dissolve requires an excessive
of working and unless
precautions are used over
worked butter is the result.
Brine sailing is the best rem
edy for this trouble.
The proper amount of work
ing can only be determined by
experience. The butter maker
must know these different con-
ditions and act accordingly.
Butter is worked enough when
the salt has been evenly dis
and dissolved This can
be determined to some extent
by biting a piece of the butter,
If any salt grains are present
it means a gritty, notified pro-
duct and more working must
follow. The butter should show
a fairly long grain when brok-
en- or pulled apart.
However, the real test al.
ways comes about six or seven
hours after the butter is made
when the notifies will show up
BY watching the result of each
churning you can soon learf
the amount of working neces.
sary under your own conditions
