NOTICE: Argo Phosphate which is

secret or patent medicine, but one that
is sold and recommended by well
known druggists everywhere and phy-
slcians are daily subscribing the CON

tlrely unlike many other Phosphates
1t is easily assimulated and will he

The manufacturers of Argo- Phosphate
will forfeit to any charitable institu-

man or woman under 65 who lacks
Phosphates, and increase their strength

800 per cent. or more in one months

of Argo-PhOsphate.

Atlanta, Ga. DR.. F. A. Jacobson says
that Phosphates are lust as essential
to any man or woman who tires easily,
is nervous, or Irritable, worn out, or
looks haggard and pale to make a
strong, robust vigorous, healty body,
as they are to cotton to make it grow
The lack of Phosphate is the cause of
all enemic conditions and the admins
tration of 5grain Argo-Phosphate tab
let's will increase the strength and en-
durance of weak, nervous, care worn
men and women 800 per cent. in two
or three weeks time in many instances,
and their continued use will build up
the whole nervous system, and give
new life, vim, vigor, and vitality to the
whole body. l always prescribe Argo-
Phosphate to patients who are pale
and colorless, and it is surprising to
see how quickly a few weeks treat
ment will transform a pale face to a
rosy checked beauty. There can be no
rosy checked, healthy, beautiful wo-
men, without their system is sufficient

ent interviews with physicians on the
grave and serious consequences of a
deficiency of Phosphates in the blood
of American men and women, I have
strongly emphasized the fact that doc
tors should prescribe more phosphates
in the form of Argo-Phosphate for
weak. worn out, haggard-looking men
and women. When the skin is pale,
and flesh fiabby, Ii is sign of anema.

resident of this place, died recently.
The News has no particulars, al

lutions:
Whereas, God has in His great

whereas, Mrs. Buck was for
nearly 20 years an active member of
cur society, and
"Whereas, we have missed her
help, her friendly ways and the in
terest she always showed in our
church, in our society and in each
one of us as individuals, during the
past year, and we mourn our loss as
a vital and personal one, be it
"Resovcd that we convey to her
family our sympathy, assuring
them that their loss is our loss, and
their sorrow is our sorrow, and be

resolutions be sent to the family, be

GET YOUR WHITEFLY FUNGUS
You Will Need it in Citrus Groves
When the Rains Begin.

While the whitefy has undoubtedly
been greatly reduced and apparently
eradicatcd in some localities where
the freeze of February was most Sc
we're it will, however, come back like
the provcrbial cat. The whitefy
may not be bad through the summer,
but it will undoubtedly increase con-
siderably during the fall.
Accompanying the decrease of
whitefy, the Red Aschersonia or Red
Whitcfy Fungus, the natural enemy
of wAitefy, that was in the trees
when the freeze came, will in many
instances have been lost completely
through the shedding Of the leaves.
Everything considered, it is impor-
tant that tie fungus should be rein
troduccd during the period of sLiamer
rains in order to give it a good chance
to bccon2 established.
In this connection, the entomologi-
cal department. of the State Plant
Board with headquarters at the Uni
versity of Florida advises that they
now have fine crop of the Red Asch-
ersonia ready for distribution. The
charges will be the same as last
year, fifty cents culture, which is
sufficient to treat an acre of grove.
Directions for introducing the fungus
accompany each shipment or will be
sent upon application. 1t seems de-
sirabIc that growers should make
their wants known early, so that
should the demand exceed the supply,
it would be possible to make some
apportonment so that all who applied
could at least get some.
The 1917 crop of Red Aschersonia,
consistin~ of approximately 1000 bot
ties, is now on exhibition in the at
tic laboratory in Language Hall of
the University of Florida. Visitors
to Gainesville who are interested in
citrus and the control of the whitetfy
should make it a point to visit the
Plant Board to see the fungus fac

ONLY ONE IN TWENTY

In First Draft-Married Men
and Farmers to be

A dispatched from Washington on
Monday stated that only one of every
20 men in the United States between
the ages of Il and 80, according to
the select conscript service law, will

There are 100000 men between

army, navy, marine or national
guards, must register June 5, whether
married or single, whether in govern
ment service or not. There are 95.-
300 men in Florida who must regis
ter.
In exemptions, after registration,
married men with dependents will be
excluded. Government employees,
farm hands, munitions workers. will
be exempt because of their work for
the good of the government.
The remainder whose work would
not help the government directly will,
be examined for physical ability tc
serve.
Of those passed as physically fit,
the jury wheel will be used to select
each districts quota of the 100000
men to be in training by Sept. /, ac-
cording to Secretary of War Baker.
Immediately upon being chosen for
service, the recruits will get a month
ly allowance of $50, as privates.

month will have an increase of Sc
pay, by the new law
When sent abroad for service, the

tional.
