WORLD SHORTAGE
 IN BEET SUGAR
Crops Are 40 Per Cent. Less Than Pre-War Average-Cen-
 traI Powers Hit Hardest.
CANE SUGAR IS ISOLATED.
Allied Beet Production Falls One-thIrd in Rigid War Economy
 Practiced.

The world today is producing forty per cent. less beet sugar than the pre- war average.
 Counting the American, Allied anC German-Austrlan crops, as well as the neutrals, the U s. Food Administra .ion has estimated that the world shortage created by the light crop of 1917-191S is at least three and hal1 million tons.
 That the 1917-1918 crop of cane sug. ar was two million tons in excess of the previous year does not relieve the general shortage.
 Cuba and Java produce one-half ot the world cane crop, and the Java sug- ar is too far removed from America to transport when shipping is badly need ed to transport and maintain the mill tary forces in France.
 In Java large part of the old sugar crop Is still awaiting shipment. Since it requires 150 to 160 days for each boat that Is sent to Java, the possibilt- ties of obtaining adequate shipments of Java sugar this season are remote.
 Allies Production aus.
 Taking the Allied nations as group, official reports show that beet sugar production is less by one-third than the pre-war average.
 French beet sugar industry has suf- fered most by the war. The French yield of beet sugar is now only 291 per cent of the prewar average.
 For the five years preceding the out break of hostilities in Europe, France produced an average of 752,542 tons of sugar each year. For 1917-18 the French production was 219,416 tons.
 With 61 factories operating, as com pared with more than POO that were in existence before the war and before the general campaign of destructive ness launched by the German armies. France nevertheless managed to manu- facture more beet sugar in 1917-18 than in 1916-17, when the total output was 202,4 tons.
 Italy ip/ 1917-1S produced 10O,SOO tons of beet sugar, which was 56,000 ons less than the previous year and 1i0250 less than the annual output of sugar for the five year pre-war pc riod.
 One of the great difficulties expert enced in Italy's beet sugar industry was finding sufficient labor to handle the crop. Thousands of men usually employed in beet sugar production were called for military service. The yield per acre amounted to apprOxi- mately half of the usual quantity of beets harvested.

DOCTOR GIVES MAN VIN HEPATiCA
 hS LAST RESORT
Mule Had Run Away With Law. renee County Farmer-C0m. D!icatisnS Arose That baf- fled All Remedies Til Doc tor Gave Win Aepatica

w. W. Kelley, aged 58, well-known farmer, of Route No. 3, Leona, Tenn, and former merchant, who was so bad ly hurt several years ago by mule running away with him, and for long while in such a serious condition as a result of his injuries, has recovered and is at his work again.
 Mir Kelley says: If anybody ever was in a terrible condition, I was, until my doctor discovered the right medi- cine for me. had to quit farming and go into the merchandising business, but my injuries were such that 1 broke down in my kidneys and suffered great ly from rheumatism. I got SO run down that could not sleep. Had to get up a dozen times night on ac- count of my kidneys. I tried all sorts of tonics and remedies without any help at all. Had to quit business.
 "One day my doctor gave me sam pie bottle of Yin Hepatica and told ma to try that And I did. It relieved me so much that I had my wife to take some of it, too, and I can safely say that anybody who is in a rundown con- dition can not miss it if they take Yin Hepatica It Is certainly a wonderful medicine, Just as ny uOctOr Sau IL was"
 This is just the way thousands and thousands talk about Win Hepatica, because it is Natures own remedy for kidney, liver, stomach and bowel trou- bles; rheumatism, impure blood, nerv- ousness, sleeplessness, rundown, weak condition, etc. It Is not patent nos trum, nor a king cure-all, but com bination of eight of the finest herbal remedies known to medical science.
 We strongly recommend this great Nature remedy Come and get bottle and try it, on our recommendation You will like it and 1t viii do you good.
