Registered Cattle Sale Big
Success.

The sale of registered Aberdeen An
gus cattle which was held in this city
on last Monday was a big success, as
Fayette county people see it, at any
rate. W. E Burns of Iowa was in
duced by the N C. & st. L. Ry., thru
its Industrial department to bring from
his ranch in the Northwest car load
of his legistered Angus cattle to this
city and sell them at public sale They
were offered Monday afternoon, twenty
eight head. bulls, cows and heiters, and
were sold at an average price Of 1923,
the cheapest one bringing $50 and the
highest $3.50, there being several to
bring the latter figure The pedigrees
were given and the blood lines are rep
resented as being the best to be found
in the whole country
OF the twenty eight head sold nearly
half were bought by Fayette county
people, as follows: J. w. Day, Somer-
vile. 2; H. P. Stainback, Somerville,

nifcient addition to the thorobred cat
tie already in the county and will serve
TO put Fayette county far in the front
rank of counties in this section of the
state, There were already many Angus
herds in this county, headed by regis
tered sires and with numerous grade
cows that are producing wonderfully
good beef animals each year. There
are, also, large number of registered
Short Horns in the county which are
producing fire grade stock crossed on
native cows.

graduated on The success of This sale

forty four t44l members, OF these

some reason only six of these pigs were
entered in the Somerville fair and

Some time ego C. C. Williams on
counting one pen of his Barred Rock
puIlets found he was short two of his
incest youngsters. He searched the
place to'no avail, concluding that the
birds had been stolen. Two weeks
later he had moved a pile of fence
posts that had been in the yard for
some time, and fastened under the
posts were both of bis lost pullets. On
being sxtricated from their prison they
began eating. drank water, and are
now well and hearty. They had been
frightened on the day they were lost
BY negro rolling O barrel thru their
yard and had run under the posts fast
ening themselves so that they could
not get out. Two weeks without food
or water and yet living and ~ith vitali-
ty enough to be hearty and strong is

CAUSED BY Thin BLOOD

Many people think they have kidney
trouble because they have backache but
more backache is caused by overstrained
and undernourished muscles than by
anything else. In such cases the blood
needs building up.
Many rheumatic people suffer pains
that could be avoided by building up the
blood. When rheumatism is associated
with thin blood the rheumatism cannot
be cured to stay cured until the blood is
built up.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills build up the
blood and sufferers from backache would
do well to try this treatment before giving
way to worry over fancied organic dis
ease. Rest and the tonic treatment with
DR.. Williams Pink Pills will correct most
forms Of backache, even rheumatic.
FOR people who work too hard or dance
too much and sleep too little, better habits
and a course Of treatment with Or. VIII
liams' Pink Pills are all that is needed
10 drive away the pains and aches that
arc warnings Of q coming breakdown.

"Unresisting" Liners to Be
Given Warning Be-
fore Attack
PROVIDING VESSELS
ARE NOT ARMED
This Will Cover French and
British Ships from
America

Washington, Feb. 23.-Conhdential ad-
vices from Berlin yesterday indicate
that Germany soon will inform the
United States that her previous assur-
ances that unresisting liners viii not be
attacked without warning holds good for
future submarine operations, provided,
however, that such liners do not carry
armament.
AS none OF the British and French
liners now clearing from American ports
carry any guns whatever such assur
ances from Germany will be in the ma
ture of reassurances for the safety for
the neutrals they carry, even under the
terms of the new submarine campaign.
The German government will contend,
the advices state, that what now is char
acterized as defensive armament really
is offensive armament when submarines
are concerned, and will propose discus
sion with the United States of what de-
fensive armament properly may be.
