Cotton anthracnose-(b rot)--
causes probably a greater loss in
South Carolina every year than cotton
wilt does. Anthracnose can be con.
trolled by securing seed which arc
free from disease and planting those
on land that has not been in cotton

seed free from disease is to get them
from fields where there was no an
thracnose. We have found that tho
fungus which causes this disease will
not remain alive in the seed for moro
than two or three years, SO that old

poses than seed Of previous season.

WOMEN TORTURED !
Suffer Terribly With Corns Because
Of Hig1, Heels, But Why
Care Now?

Women wear high heels which
buckle up their toes and they suffer
terribly from corns. Women then
proceed to trim these pests. seeking
relief, but they hardly realize the ter
rible danger from infection, says a
Cincinnati authority
Corns can easily be lifted out with
tie fingers If you will get from any
drug store a quarter of an ounce Of a
drug called freezone. This Is suffi-
cient to remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet. You
simply apply few drops directly
upon the tender, aching corn or cal
lus. The soreness is relieved at once
and soon the entire corn or callus.
root and all, lifts out without one
particle Of pain.
This freezone is a sticky substance
which dries in moment. 1t just
shrivels up the corn without inflam-
ing or even irritating the surround
ing tissue or skin. Tell your wife
about this.-Adv.
