.CALOMEL DYNAMITES
A SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes into sou- bile, making you
Sick and you lose q
,jlS work.


Calomel salivates! It's mercury
Calomel acts like dynamite on slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into
it, causing cranping and nausea. 3
If you leel bilious, hcadachy, consti-
pated and all knocked out, just go to
your druggist and get "a 50-cent bottle
of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is a
harmless vegetable substitute for dam
gerous calomel. Take spoonful and
if it dosen't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calolnel and without max
ing 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 70 children;
they like it.

CRoPfAND WEATHER REPORT
FOR WEEK ENDING JUNE 18th

The weather during the past week
was quite favorable in the northern
half OF the state for the best develop
inent of vegetation. Generous showers
fell and the weather was reasonable
warm, advancing the growth of crops
considerably. But in the central
southern portion of the State only
scattered showers fell and the drought
continues severe over very many
counties. resulting in slow growth and
positive injury to many crops. espe-
cially truck crops, gardens, meadows
and pastures. Cotton and corn are
small but we'll cultivated generally.
in the southern portion some cotton is
forming squares and blooming. and a
good deal of corn is in silk and tas-
sell Warmth is increasing the activity
OF the boil weevil, which is likely to
do considerable damage on account Of
the latcness of the cotton crop. Set
ting sweet potatoes continues. and a
very large acreage is indicated. The
harvest Of wheat and oats is ncarir o
completion; yield poor. Sugar cane,
peanuts, and minor crops are doing
fairly well, but pastures are very poor
in the South. The main peach crop
liberia variety, is .ripening rapidly,
with good yield Indicated Melons are
also ripcning in the Southern portion.

WHY THE CORN BELT IS COM
ING HERE

The State Department of Agricul-
ture, through the survey of its Mar
ket Bureau, working preparatory to
safeguarding farm products OF TODD
stuffs the next two years, or during
the war shortage" is convinced that
the corn belt ultimately is coming to
the heart OF the old cotton belt
largely the state of Georgia. Already
it is clearly evident that war condi-
tons" and demands are fast bringing
the country to the period of very large
substitution of corn-bread for wheat
-four. Here are some interesting and
important figures, illustrative OF what
may be cxpected-much of which has
already come:

Exported in 1915 from

Total crop L. S. winter

home .......................o 5O,OOO,OU0
Needs OF allied nations
from [. S. this year -. 300,0O00OO
Seed demand in |. S.
from this crop ...........90,OOOOOo
Therefore. if the law OF supply and
demand. backed by necessities of war
and executed to meet those demands,
are to control a crop OF 640,000OO0
bushels OF American wheat is going
to be called upon to supply our actual
minimum demand for 9l0000000 bu-
shells, thus presenting shortage OF
270000,000 bushels, or more than one
half the normal food supply demand
of this country on its own wheat crop.
That can mean only half ration of
flour for the people OF this country
and the necessary substitution of the
next best thing-corn bread.
The demand for corn meal there
fore is going to be relatively increas-
ed Food crop production in Geor,
gia has turned considerably more to
corn this year than in the past and
next year-assuming foundation OF
expert opinion to be good, that the
war will not be short-the reason for
an even larger Georgia corn crop
than whatever this years will yield
will before that time be self-evident
Therefore, the expressed opinion oil
the market experts of the Georgia
Department of Agriculture that "tht
corn belt is moving to and around
Georgia"

FACES JUDGE ON
 \. WAY TO THE ALTAR
Blanchard Stun, Aged 62, Was on :. sWay tog Cladna sL0Sal Bride
 When Arrested

Whether wedding bells will ring merrily, jangle much out of tune or cease to ring for Blanchard Stual. aged 62, prospective bridegroom who left New York for this city Tuesday afternooN an intended preliminary trip to the one planned to the altar. depends wholly upon the forgiveness of the bride-to-be or the interpreta- tion given by her to the version of happenings related to her by her aged suitor. Her name has. thus far. been tion to her identity.
 For instead of arriving in this city to be greeted by his fond one with love in her eyes, Stull landed in the clutches of a common Hartford police officer and faced Judge Edward l.. Steele in Hartford police court yes terday morning. He was fined $6 and costs for being abusive to a "New Haven road passenger conductor and refusal to pay his fare. But this was not the end of the errant bride- groom's troubles. Although he had a wedding ring and another ring with him,s he had only A in cash with him. Jail loomed up before his re- penant eyes until there was a. happy thought. If there was 8 woman will ing to promise to comfort and protect him during dark days, why could she not begin before the fateful words were said and get him out of durance vile for a happy honeymoon. At his request. the Hartford authorities com- municated with her, although still reticent relative to her name and ad- dress Whether she will throw out the life line to get her aged suitor ashore and into her possession has not been announced.
 All the trouble was due to stull's going to sleep and, lulled into deeper slumber by the motion of the train and click of the wheels. he did not know that Berlin Junction had been reached his point of transfer passed and that he was being carried further and further towards cold and unwel- coming Hartford. At least. he did not realize until along came a common conductor and wanted such a paltry thing as ticket. All the world may love a lover and perhaps "connie" would have passed the aged bride groom-to-be, had he known. But, in- stead of lovey, dovey and cooey words, Stull is reported to have waxed indig- nant with words more generally asso- ciated with men of a lower strata of society than a man going to get mar ried. A cold unsympathetic police man took him in custody at Hartford.

 In explanation Councilman Weld states that he has applied for admis- sion to the reserve officers training corps at Plattsburgh. N. Y.. and while he has passed the necessary exan1ina- tions he has not received any notifica- tion that his application has been acc cepted. Until he is officially notified and leaves the city he will not even consider resigning, he declares. Fup- thermore Councilman Weld says that in the event of his resignation he would advocate the appointment of Alexander l.. Mnckay as his successor, MT. Mackay having been the unsuc- cessful candidate for alderman from this ward.
