with their said Instructions, which evil
dence, with certain exhibits, is hereto

That your committee further finds
and reports that said evidence estab-
lished prima facie that said Jessie

Feed Out Your Hogs Weeks Earlier

In every lot of hogs on feed two OF
three weeks quickly and actually eat
less than others. If all would fatten
like these, the entire drove would be
ready for the market six weeks ear
lier and to save six weeks feed is an
item that you fully understand.
The hog that fattens easily must be
in prime condition. The B. A. Thom-
as Hog Powder is a conditioner for
hogs. 1t keeps their system clean
and healthy and enables them to fat
ten quickly without falling a prey to
the usual diseases of hogs. The B. A.
Hog Powder is not stock food.
It's straight medicine, and we took the
agency because it enables you to feed

he sought he would endeayor to post
himself so that he might faithfully,
fairly and intelligently represent the
people of Haywood county and that
he would vote for every good measure
and against everything that might
prove detrimental to his constituents,
Mr.. Graves stated that he was for
good roads and better schools and for
anything that was for the uplift of
humanity. He would support his par
ty and his people and would at more
opportune time place before the peo-
pie those principles which would guide
him if elected to this important posi-
tion. Judge Estes said that he had
been an officer in this county for the
past forty years and that in asking
his people to elect him to the senate,
he was standing on the record which
he had made. That, if elected, he would
use his best Judgment with the desire
to better both state and county. He
would always be found standing be-
hind his party, and would fight for the
right, as he saw it, without fear or
favor.
At the close of the speech making
Currie Dixon introduced motion that
no proxies be allowed in the delegtion
firm Haywood county at the state con-
ventin. The motion prevailed. AT

Japanese gentlemen engaged by the Chinese government. American and European advisers exert their efforts for the interests of China and their governments and people think noth- ing strange about them. But the at titude of the Japanese government and people toward Japanese advisors is rigorous, nay, much too severe.
