CALOMEL DYNAMITES
A SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes Into Sour Bile, Making You
Sick, and You Lose Days Work

Crashes Into Sour Bile, Making You
Sick, and You Lose Days Work
Calomel salivates! It's mercu-
ry. Calomel acts like dynamite
on a sluggish liver. When calo-
mel comes into contact with sour
bile it crashes into it, causing
cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy,
constipated and all knocked out,
just go to your druggist and get
a so cent bottle of Dodson's Liver
Tone, which is harmless vege-
table substitute for dangerous
calomel. Take a spoonful and if
it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and
quicker than nasty calomel, and
without making you sick, you
just go back and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll
be sick and nauseated tomorrow;
besides. it may salivate you,
while if you take Dodson's Liver
Tone you will wake up feeling
great, full of ambition and ready
for work or play. It's harmless,
pleasant and safe to give to,

Will Locate LIMERICK Crush.

L. O.. Stone, president of the
board of prison trustees, in COM
pany with Col. Montgomery and
Mr.. Thames, the other trustees,
is in South Mississippi looking
over the limerick of that section
with the view Of locating one of
the crushers provided for in an
Act of the last legislature. Dr..
Lowe. state geologist, is with
the trustees with the view of
obtaining samples of rock to be
subjected to chemical analysis.
On q recent visit to Lee coun-
ty. Dr.. Lowe obtained samples
from several points in the county
and was most favorably impress
ed with the rock around Belden.
The rock in Chickasaw and
Lowndes are both Of high grade.
The two crushers, one to be
located in North and the other
in South Mississippi. will be run
for the purpose of furnishing the
people Of the state lime for their
crops at actual cost. In the
growing of legnminous plants,
such as alfalfa and clover, there
is great need of lime in the soil.
Those sections that are engaged
In the raising of such plants will
be large purchasers Of the pro-
ducts of these crushing plants
and the investment by the state
will prove to be a wise one.
The plants will be operated by
state conYicts and the ground
rock will be furnished at the
minimum cost.

The guests were ushered into

The table was covered in hand

In the matter of roads, the
Delta has not yet adopted a sys-

that section a most needed i'm

macadam roaos are found in the
various counties, but the work
has been done by piecemeal and

Herefords Bought

County Agent J. E. Ruff, D.
w. Robins and A. P. Smith, Of
Nettleton, returned last Mon
day night from Oklahoma,
where they went for the purpose
of buying a car load of young
Hereford cattle for breeding pur-
poses. They visited Oklahoma
City. Ell Reno and Geary, Okla
homa. At the latter place they
succeeded in finding what they
were looking for and bought the
stock there from Frank M. Gault,
who is president of the aericul-
tural state board of Oklahoma.
Mr.. Gault has built up a splendid
herd Of Herefords and is breed
ing a lot of Polls of this breed in
which he is having splendid suc-
cess.
The purchase by the Lee coun-
ty representatives consisted of
% males from 10 to IL months
old, weighing from 500 to 800
pounds, and five females. all be-
ing registered. The animals were
not shipped until Thursday, as
they were held over for the pur-
pose of giving them the tubercu-
lin test.
Five Holstein males. from 10 to
IA months old, weighing from 500
to 800 pounds, were also bought.
The latter are also registered an
imals.
This purchase of blooded ami
mails was made under the direc-
tion of the Lee County Bankers
Association, which is behind the
movement to improve the cattle
Of the county.
The males will be sold out
either to individuals or to clubs
in a community and will be used
for breeding purposes.
The females were bought by
Smith Bros, at Nettleton.
The banks behind the project
will take the notes for the pur-
chase money of the animals on
easy terms and at a low rate of
interest
This movement means great
deal for Lee county. It is just
as easy to breed good stock as
poor and there is an incentive to
care for a good animal which we
do not have in caring for poor
one. Within few years the eff
feet of this investment will be
seen on practically every good
farm in Lee county. 1t is an ad-
vanced step in stock breeding
and we have no doubt that Lee
county will soon be placed on the
map as a leading Hereford breed
ing county where prospective
buyers can find animals of the
best strain. With this reputa-
tion once established high prices
can be obtained for all surplus
cattle.
The men behind this PROPOSE
ton are doing a great public
service and are entitled to COM
mendation for their public spir-
itedness in launching movement
which amounts to so much for
the county.

Press Association Meets

The Mississippi Press Associa-
tion held their annual convention
at Clarksdale the past week and
the quill drivers were never more
royalty entertained. A commit
tee of entertainment, headed by
Ex- Governor Brewer, had pre-
pared a program that left but a
few short hours for the business
of the convention.
The visitors were met at the
trains and escorted to their re-
spectiye hotels.
eThe address of welcome was
ienvered by Hon. Oscar John
ston, the silver tongued orator
of the Delta. and his guests were
made to feel the cordiality of the
welcome which he extended in a
most delightful manner.
Joe Norwood. who was to de-
liver the response, failed to get
in on time, but the press was not
without a responsive chord. indi-
vidually and collectively.
On Wednesday the members Of
the association were driven in
automobiles to Friars Point,
from which point they took the
Kate Adams to Helena, Ark, a
distance of 16 miles up the Mis-
sissippi. At Helena the party
was driven oyer the city, which
is one of the most up to- date and
one of the best built of the
smaller cities of the south.
Returning to Friars Point, the
association VAS driven to the
Clarksdale club house, on Moon
Lake, where an elegant fish fry
and barbecue was spread for the
guests. This feast could not have
been excelled at Delmonico's,
and to say that it was relished
by all fails to fully describe the
appetites that the members sat-
isfied on that bounteous occasion.
Thursday morning the business
of the convention was concluded
by the election of Walker Wood,
of the Winona Times, president,
and the re election of Alfred
Bean, secretary.
At noon the members were
driven to the great Parchman
farm, Mississippi's model farm,
where are kept her negro con-
victs. This farm is in Sunfower
county and is without doubt one
of the greatest farms in the
world. There are $1,000 acres
of as fine land as the Delta fur.
nishes and is in a high state of
cultivation. The farm is divided
in what is known as 13 separate
camps, although there are no
camps, literally, on the place.
The buildings are of the most
substantial kind and are in a
spleneid state Of preservation.
The guests, numbering about
300, assembled at Camp No. II,
where the wives of the superin-
eendents and sargeants on the
place had prepared magnificent
dinner, consisting of barbecued
meat, chicken, salads and an
abundant supply of sweetmeats.
Thursday night the convention
was c osed with a grand ball at
the Alcazar.
