In recent bulletin by the depart
nent of agriculture on hog cholera at
tention is called to the activity OF
buzzards in the spread of this dread
disease and further to the fact that the
law no longer protects the buzzard. II
says I'm fact any one killing 6uzzards
will do public service" and urges the
destruction of the buzzard because it is
the most prolific source of the spread
OF cholera among hogs. The disease is
just now quite wide spread in this
county, having caused the death of
many hundred hogs already. Kill the
buzzard, bury the dead hogs, disinfect
the quarters and take every measure to
prevent the spread of the infection.

From the Brownsville States Graphic
of last week it is learned that a con-
tract was let few days ago for build
ing a drainage canal in that county and
Crockett to redeem many acres of bot
tom land. The canal will be 20 miles
long, while the Forked Deer river
meanders between the origin and outlet
of this canal a total of u miles. In
other words, the canal will have as
much fall in 20 miles as the stream has
in 70, which will take the water off
rapidly, assuring the quick drying of
the lands. The cost, as stated by the
paper, is Sc per acre for the land re-
claimed. How infinitesinal this seems
when compared with the value of these
lands when once drained. One years
rent will cover the entire cost. Don't
this proposition look good to owners of
swamp lands in this county in the
Loosahatchie and Wolf river bottoms?

DEMOCRATIC NOMINEES
VALUE OF BLOOD.

For many years we have preached
improved livestock. which is simply
pure-bred stock or its product. And
our preaching has not beer for the
reason that improved stock Is more
beautiful or more uplifting but because
1t Is more profitable. 1t Is self-evident
that not every stockman should be q
breeder Of pure-bred animals. That is
a profession which comparatively few
men are fitted by nature or will fit
themselves to follow. But we hold
that it lie equally self-evident that every
stockman should use pure blood, be-
cause that is the only way which he can
get his herd or flock up to high stand
ard of usefulness and keep it there.
If any man wants to know what our
cattle, hogs and sheep were before
the days Of pure blood, or what they
might be now without it. let him 90 to
st. Louis when the unimproved stock
from the South is coming to market,
The Fayette falcon. (Somerville, Tenn.) 190?-current, 1916-03-17

There he will see bovine hatracks,
porcine razorbacks and ovine bare.
bellies enough to teach him how much
the rest of this country owes to pure
blood. One of the difficulties in the
way of improvement is the fact that
men sometimes fell to realize the de-
ficiencies Of their stock. Some will
not believe that what they sell is in
ferior even when the market spells out
the lesson for them in red ink. Many
can see the dollar that blood costs in
the sire but have not vision enough to
see the dollars that will come back in
the progeny. The only attitude q reas-
enable man can take toward pure blood
in livestock production is to favor it.
History will teach him, his observation
will show him and his experience will
prove to him its value. Stockman &

why WOMEN
WRITE LETTERS
To Lydia E. Pinkham Medi-
cine Co.

Women who are well often ask care
the letters which the1ydia E. Pinkham
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?" Are they truthful 2"
"Why do women write such lettersf /"
In answer we say that never have we
published a fictitious letter or name.
Never, knowingly, have we published
an untruthful letter, or one without the
full and written consent Of the woman
who wrote it.
The reason that thousands Of women
from all parts of the country write such
grateful letters to the Lydia E. Pink
ham Medicine Co. is that Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,
once burdened with pain and suffering.
1t has relieved women from some of
theworst forms of female ills, from dis
placements, Inflammation, liberation,
irregularities, nervousness, weakness,
stomach troubles and from the blues.
It is impossible for any woman who

-.1., York As Grain Port.
(Troy Times. )

One of the interesting develop ments of "war times" is seen in the fact that Now York has made tre- mendous advance in the matter of grain shipments abroad and is now far in the lead of all other American ports. There was a time when Q large part of the grain trade ap- peared to be drifting away from New The returns of the Produce Exchange show that in 1915 New York received 21S,612,OOO bushels of grain, which was twice the quantity received in 1911. The seven leading ports which are included in the compilation made by the Chamber of Commerce of the state of New York are New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, New Orleans, Galveston and San Francis co The total quantity of grain sent to these ports in 1915 was 554,980,- 900 bushels Thus it appears that the New York receipts were 39.4 per proach 10 this proportion was made by Baltimore, which took 19.S per cent The other ports figured as fol- lows: Philadelphia, 12.6 per cent; New Orleans, 102 per cent; San Francisco "A per cent; Galveston, 6.6 per cent, and Boston, five per cent. About eightyfour per cent of the grain on ocean steamers undoubtedly to foreign countries. The superior facilities for receiving and loading gran on ocean steamers undoubtedly explain why the grain ships prefer to go there for cargoes.
