. Sir: Kindly give me space to tell
you what our school is doing In school
gardens and home gardens for this
term. ~ ::.e.>a. H. ~
On the first day of school our prin.
cipal gave US talk ON the importance
OF home gardens, with the result that
we have formed club of 100 boys who
will plant in their home gardens such
vegetables as yams, Irish potatoes,
carrots, turnips, beets, onions and rad
ishes Bananas will be planted in
spaces that are not suitable for vege-
tables. / am going to plant an acre
of vans. e.-. 49,,
find no trouble in selling all the
vegetables that my mother does not
need for the table.
We can now take a small piece of
meat and some carrots, parsnips, po-
tatoes and parsley and make stew
for cur family costing not more than
25 cents, that If we should use beef
alone as a steak or roast would cost
at least dollar. :..-..
81 In this way we hope to help our
parents by reducing the cost of living
and perhaps we can be Of some use to
our territory and our country, too.
Thanking you for publishing my let
tiers, | am ~ F..

Editor Honolulu Star.Bulletin,
Sir: Our vegetables are growing
well, but many green caterpillars are
found on the cabbage leaves. These
feed on the leaves and spoil the looks
of our vegetables. We have destroyed
many of them. The beans are climbing
and some already have blossoms.
Although we are going to have a
weeks vacation, some of the boys are
coming over to the school to look after
the vegetables.
On Monday, six boys cut the cane
from plot 120x120 feet. they loaded
two cars and these have been sent to

We are greatly interested in gar.
dening, so we expect to continue our
work until school closes in June

sity of its products to the imperial
government and the fact that its dis
continuance would mean a chaotic
condition of affairs in South Africa. "
Since the beginning of the war,
South Africa has produced 0,000,000
pounds sterling in gold. Twenty per
cent OF the white employees have vol.
unfairly gone on active service, and
the extra financial burdens imposed
by the war on the gold mining indus
try are estimated at 5000, 900 pounds
a year. Dividends last year were about
1000, 900 pounds less than in 1914, al.
though the production was 100000
pounds sterling greater.

We found by stirring the soil often
it did not take SO much water. We
gave them plenty of fertilizer. We
used stable manure mostly, but also
used some ashes from an old rubbish
pile. Instead of burning the dry grass
as was done before, we now put 1t in
a hole and let it rot, to use on our
garden. This we learned about from
a bulletin that We got from Washing

Our beans are planted in two beds,

CATARRHAL DEAFNESS CANNOT
BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure ca
tarrhal deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedy. Catarrhal deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed condi-
ton Of the mucous lining Of the
Eustachian Tube. When the tube is
inflamed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, deafness is the result.
Unless the Inflammation can be
reduced and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which
is an inflamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medi-
cine acts through the blood on the
mucous surfaces of the system.
We give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrhal Deafness that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

TANLAC merit
kentuckIans Place Stamp Of
Approval on Tan!aC.
HAS ENvIABLE REPUTATION

When medicine is vouched for by
hundreds in a state like Kentucky
there can be no doubt as to its merits.
Kentuckians are not easily led to make
public statements about anything. They
are inclined to test remedy thorough
ly before placing their o. K. on it.
Therefore Tanlac's originatOrs are
proud to point to the hundreds Of testi-
mOnials given voluntarily by people of
the Blue Grass State. Here are a few
Of the statements:
EDWARDS Mrs. Belle Phillips: 81
suffered from nervousness and loss
OF appetite. Needed something to
build me up. Tanlac brought back
my appetite and gave me rest at
night"
OLATON Mrs. Belle Daniel: "Was
troubled with my stomach for sew
eral years and was all run down. l
have used three bottles of Tanlac
and am nav feeling much better. NY
appetite has come back and I have
already gained 10 pounds"
CLEATON-Mrs Sue Bobbitt: 81 suf-
fered from rheumatic pains, sick
stomach, headaches and nervousness.
but since taking Tanlac my health in
general has improved. l think it Is
fipe medicine" .rsfge w.
CARLISLE-Mrs. N1illie D. Laughlin:
II was weak. nervous and restless
before l started taking Tanlac, but
now have my strength back and am
able to do my own Homework again."
MALT-Mrs. Mary L. Howell: Head
aches, backaches and nervousness,
caused by disordered stomach and
kidneys, undermined me until l was
completely run down. Tanlac, how
ever, has me on the road back to
health and expect to be all right in
q short time"
PENICK-W. G. Mays: Food soured
on my stomach and suffered from
heartburn. was weak and didn't
seem to have any ambition. Tan

strengthened me all around"
Tanlac has built up thousands of
people in this state. If you are run

ENGLAND TO RAISE SUGAR.

One of the leading shortages in
England to-day is the sugar short
age. This is due largely to the fact
that there is no domestic production
of sugar whatever. In line with her
new policy of raising necessities at
home, England has subsidized a COM
pany to raise sugar beets and set up
sugar factory. Climate and soil
are said to be favorable A tract Of
$500 acres has been set aside. The
Treasury has assured the enterprise
of backing to the extent of $625,0O0.
To get this subsidy in accordance
with British law, special company
had to be organized, mot trading
for profit"
The Bourbon news. [volume] (Paris, Ky.) 1895-19??, 1917-07-24
ARE YOU ONE OF THEM?

There are a great many people
who would be very much benefited
by taking Chamberlain's Tablets for
a weak and disordered stomach. Are
you one of them? Mrs. M. r. Scarf,
Baldwinsville, N. Y, relates her ex-
perience in the use of these tablets:
81 had a bad spell with my stomach
about six months ago, and was
troubled for two or three weeks with
gas and severe pains in the pit of
my stomach. Our druggist advised
me to take Chamberlian's Tablets.
I took a bottle home and the first
dose relieved me wonderfully, and /
kept on taking them until I was
cured" These tablets do not relieve
pain, but after the pain has been re-
lieved may prevent its recurrence.

WHAT'S THE REASON?
Many Paris People in Poor Health
Without Knowing the Cause,

W1Cn0uC knoWlng the cause.
There are scores of people who
drag out miserable existence with
out realizing the cause of their suf-
fering. Day after day they are rack
ed with backache and headache; suf-
fer from nervousness, dizziness,
weakness, languor and depression.
Perhaps the kidneys have fallen be-
hind in their work of f1ltering the
blood and that may be the root of
the trouble. Look to your kidneys,
assist them in their work-give them
the help needed. You can use no
more highly recommended remedy
than Doan's Kidney Pills endorsed
by people all over the country and
by your neighbors.
VIM. w. Dudley, 1929 Cypress
street, Paris, says: "Some years
ago, found it necessary to use a
kidney remedy and as I had read
about Doan's Kidney Pills, used
them. They proved to be satisfac-
tory and permanently rid me of kid
ney complaint. I have good reason
to recommend Doan's Kidney Pills
and advise their use to anyone
troubled with weak or lame back
or irregular passages of the kidney
secretions."

simply ask for kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mr.. Dudley had. Foster-Milburn
