IMPORTANCE NOW
AUTHORIZED STATEMENT OF CARL
VROoMAN. ASSISTANT SECRE-
TARY OF AGRICULTURE.

The South needs to be agriculturaIly
prepared and modified at this critical
moment In our history. because the
South Is dependent on the rest OF the
country for her food supply. The South
must develop her food resources and
her system OF food distribution TO the
highest point OF efficiency. The South
at this crisis must lead the way by
feeding herself. thus releasing 5000
10000 or $1,000. 000 600 worth OF food
TO those who are fighting with us for
democracy and human liberty. War
means that the present serious short
age Of freight cars Will become even
more serious. and the South viii suffer
because OF its dependence on the North
vest for meat and -four.
II il essential that every possible
food resource OF the Southern States be
developed to Its fullest capacity this
summer. and that reliance be not
placed on the cotton crop alone. II
may be that substitutes for staple
foods VIII have To become part OF the
southern diet. Soy beans and eowpeas.

ton. our allies are hungry. and we
must feed them. Our winter wheat
crop is small and the world wheat crop
Ia likewise small. There is every rea-
son for the strlctest economy in the
use OF food. the strictest efficiency IN
the distribution OF food and the ut
most use OF scientific principles In the
production OF food
The responsibility for adequate food
production Hes with the individual cit

As can readily be seen. II Is nothing
unusual for dealers 10 order II car load
OF Tanlnc and have every bottle OF II
sold before II arrives. In fact, many
Of the Tanlae jobbers and distributors
invariably order the second and third
cars before the car en- route has time
TO reach them.
What Is the answer To all thisi
There is only one explanation. and that
is very simple. The inherent purity
and wholesomeness OF the medicine
has confirmed 1t In the minds of the
people and made II household word
throughout America.
There Is a Tanlac dealer In your
town.-Adv.
The Dermott news. (Dermott, Ark.) 1910-1977, 1917-04-19

In n later statement Mr.. Willis said:
This condition was brought about
not only by the enormous demand for
Tanlac but by ahe congested condition
Of the railroads.
when II seemed almost certain
that the threatened nationwide rail
road strike would go into effect we
made arrangements to keep our prin-
cipal distributors supplied by express.
Over one thousand (s1,0oo.OO) dollars
was spent for express charges In n
single day on Texas and Oklahoma
= orders alone.
Working at Top Speed.
Although the big Tanlac laborato-
ries at Dayton. Ohio, have been run
full capacity of approximately twenty
five thousand bottles per day. we have
been wholly unable to meet the de-
mand for Tnnlac which has been ere
ated during the past two years.
I'm addition to the Dayton laborato-
ries with their enormous output the
Cooper Medicine Company is now plan
ming to establish branch plants In the
Central West, on the West coast and
In the Dominion OF Canada, and unless
international complications make 1t
impossible for us To secure the numcr-
Gus ingredients In the way OF roots,
herbs. barks. etc, many of which come
from remote parts OF the globe we
will be able TO take care of any future
demand"
The wonderful growth and develop
ment OF Tanlac has been the marvel OF
the commercial world aud the amaz-
Ing success achieved by the prepare
tons seems almost incredible.
What Dealers Say.
. In only two years time over seven
and one-half million bottles have been
sold and the demand is constantly In
creasing. Although placed on the mar
ket In Texas and Oklahoma but few
months ago practically n third OF n
million bottles have already been sold
and thousands have been unable to OBJ
tain II on account OF the inability of
the laboratory To supply II.
Dealers and jobhers have been al
most frantic because OF their inahil-
ity TO illl the thousands OF orders they
have been receiving and the following
letters and kilograms from we'll known
firms gave ample evidence OF the won
,derful growth and popularity OF Tan
lac:

Died of Premature Old Age

How many times we hear of COM
paratively young persons passing away
when they should have lived to be 20
or 50 years of age. This fatal work Is
usually attributed to the kidneys, as,
when the kidneys degenerate, ii causes
auto-intoxication. The more injuri-
Gus the poisons passing thru the kid
neys the quicker will those noble or
gaus be degenerated. and the sooner
they decay.
II Is thus the wisest policy, TO pre-
vent premature old age and promote
long life, 10 tighten the work of the
kidneys. This can be done by drink
Ing plenty of pure water all day long
and occasionally taking Anuric, double
strength, before meals. This can be
obtained at almost any drug store. You
will find Anuric more potent than lithia
for II dissolves uric acid as water does
sugar.

Ieary, field coach Both men are in favor of the continuation of intercollegiate athlet- ics, and If sufficient interest is shown to football at Harvard and if their alma mater desires their services will undoubtedly serve without remunera- ton.
 Candidates for the freshmen foot bal team will report on Soldiers Field during the week of Sept. "A. Games for the 1921 team have been arranged with Andover. Exeter. Worcester Academy and the Yale freshmen.
 With military training at Harvard study each week, the interest in var likely to call for only nine hours sity sport. especially football, is likely to be renewed. Candidates for the varsity eleven will report to Pooch Donovan soon after college reopens. Contests with other colleges will be arranged, providing the nucleus for team is available.

PAPP FIRST AGAIN
 ON SARATOGA CARD
Carries 130 Pounds on Heavy
 Track and Gallops Through

Saratoga, N. Y, Aug. 16.-Papp. George w. Lofts sterling two-year- old, son of Peter Quince-Phebe G.. won the Sanford Memorial here yes- terday afternoon and gave further evil dence of his right to juvenile honors.. The track was deep and sloppy from a heavy rain of the early morning and the sturdy chestnut took up 13O pounds, conceding weight to every starter but George J. Longs Freecut- ter.
 The colt to give Papp such stiff argument was w. c. Clancy's Rash mir. The son of Delhi and Gingham had to shoulder only 115 pounds. He broke rather badly and had to race all around his company, and closing with a rush in the stretch was wear ing the winner down at the end. It was the third victory for Papp at the meeting. He won the Flash Stakes on the opening day under 127 pounds and cored in the United States 1 Hotel Stakes, in which he shouldered 13O pounds, giving away weight to every starter Papp's other start was on Saturday when he was a good | third in the Saratoga Special, in l which he met with considerable mis- fortune His race today makes him appear as easily the best juvenile that | has been shown this season.
 The Corinth Handicap of a mile and a furlong was another of the impor- tant races of the afternoon, and 1t went to J. O. Keen's good mare Mos cowa. She was particularly at home in the sloppy going and she made a show of Dick Williams, while T. C.. l McDowelrs Manager Waite was third Another Western victory came In the running of the third race, mile | affair that was generally considered to be strictly between Chiclet and Woodtrap. But w. J. Young's Va Tor raced Chiclet into submission to come on and win while the son ot Spearmint just lasted to beat Wood- trap.
 The winner of the steeplechase or the afternoon was Syosset from the qreentree Stable, and then after he had won George Land boosted him
 from an entered price of $1,00o to
 s1,5o0, but he was protected and
 bought in for $1.6o5 by Jimmy l Owens.
