A right or wrong start in 1917 will
make or break most farmers in the
South. We are all facing a crisis
This war in Europe puts things In
such uncertainty that no man can
foresec the future with any degree of
clearness.
The sure and certain increase In
cotton acreage means lower cotton
prices next fall. Cost of all food and
grain products is high, 30 high that
no one & 4 afford to buy and expect
to pay out with cotton.
It's n time above all others to play
safe; to produce all possible food,
grain and forage supplies on your
own acres; to cut down the store bill.
A good piece Of garden ground,
rightly planted, rightly tended and
kept planted the year round, can be
made to pay half your living. 1t will

How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form Of

are injured by them.
If your childs stomach, liver and

action is positive, but gentle. Mil
lions of mothers keep this harmless
fruit laxative" handy; they know
childhen love to take it; that it never
fails to clean the liver and bowels and

spoonful given today saves sick child
tomorrow.

LOCKHART JUNCTION

Uockhart Junction, Feb. 12.-The
hasn't been much rain in over week.
1 see today that there are some
farmers starting their plows furrow-
ing off their land, but 1 thought it
was rather wet. 1 hope there won't
be any more cotton planted than last
year. If every one will look to their
interest they won't increase the acre
age in cotton, for we ought to learn
by experience. We see when there is
short crop we get better prices.
Well, the great war talk is on
again. l hear some say that if the
United States gets into war it will
soon end, but I fear it might be the
beginning of one of the greatest wars.
The Bible teaches us that there shall
| be wars and rumors of wars till the
end of time. There have been wars
and prophesies of wars and how many
more to come we don't know. There
have been many prophesies fulfilled,
if l understand it. God, who can hold
the wind in the hollow of his hand,
can subdue all nations.

Mr.. Boyd Tweed, who has had bad
