SMITH COUNTY BOYS
CHEERFULlY LEAVE FOR
WAR TRAINING CAMP

Fifty-niEe Smith county boys.
the names of whom appeared in
last weeks issue of the Courier,
, departed last Tuesday for Little
Rock, Ark, to enter Camp Pike
for military training. Hundreds
of friends and relatives from va
rious sections of the county were
here to cheer tn e boys
for answering their country 8
call and to assure them that the
Smith countians at home were
going to stand by them with all
they had and contribute to their
maintenance and comfort through
the purchasing of liberty bonds
and supporting the Red Cross
and Y. M. C. A. work.
No county ever sent a finer
bunchof boys out to fight the bat
ties of liberty. and any other pre-
diction but that they will nobly
face every requirement would be
false. The contingent was COM
posed of boys of various stations
of life including some of our best
young farmers, merchants.
teachers. bankers, clerks and
statesmen.
One of the best analysis of the
war situation was given by the
Hon. Montaville Flowers, a
prominent chautauqua lecturer,
who is clos ely connected with
the war activities at Washington.
Mr.. Flowes stated that he had
sufficient information to know
that the Germans could not sue
cessfully break through the Al
lied lines in the big battles that
are now being fought and in
which thousands of Americans
are taking part and killing Huns
by the hundreds. Mr.. Flowers
says war will not end until Ger
many is extinguished and that
this will likely require a long
time. He said to bring this war
to close it was necessary to
kill Germans and he advised the
boys to have no conscientious
scruples against taking up their
rifles and going to the front
where he has two sons and join
them in this great work for hu-
manity.
Inspiring and appreciative ad
dresses were also made by At.
torney H. B. McGinness and
Judge j. Nd. Gardendire.
At the noon hour the boys
were served a delightful lunch
by the Red Cross ladies at the
Walton Hotel. Immediately af'
ter the speaking the boys were
presented with comfort kits, ant
with Roy M. Lyon in charge
boarded the train for Camp Pike

A recent letter from Lewis
Penwell, Chief of the Wool
Division of the War Industries
Board. to County Agent D. NJ.
Galloway, contains the following
official rulings which will be of
interest to the wool growers of
this section. and the local mer-
chants and traders who have
been in the habit of handling
the wool in this sections.
All of the Wool of the 1918
clip, must b q distributed
through approved dealers.

dealers approved by the War
Industries Board who are located

who buy direct from the grow
ers and resell or consign to APP

nearest approved Distributing
Centers.)
All county dealers should APP
ply for permit to operate by
writing to the Wool Division of
the War Industries Board,

and address.
Approved Dealers shall be enc
titled to gross profit in no case
to exceed 1.2 cent per pound
on the total seasons business,
| this profit to cover all expenses
from grower to loading wool on
board cars.
Tho grower shall receive fair

established on July Both, 1917.
less the profit to the dealer, as
stated above, and less freight to

and interest,
In no case shall this be con-
strued to mean that there shall
be more than / 1-2 cents gross

arrives at the distributing CEN
ter.
The books of all dealers shall
be open to government inspec

will be allowed to pool their
clips in quantities of not less
than minimum carloads of Is, DOC
pounds and consign the wool sc
pooled as one account to any ap.

The prices fixed by the Gov,
eminent are the highest prices
that have obtained since the

careful TO sell their wool only
to dealers holding Governmenf

KIDNEY SUFFERERS HAVE
 FEELING OF SECURITY

You naturally feel secure when you know that the medicine you are about to take is absolutely pure and contains no harmful or habit producing drugs.
 Such medicine is Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
 The same standard of purity, strength and excellence Is maintained in every bottle of Swamp-Root.
 Swamp-Root is scientifically compound. ed from vegetable herbs.
 It is not stimulant and is taken in teaspoonful doses.
 It is not recommended for everything.
 According to verified testimony it is natures great helper in relieving and over coming kidney, liver and bladder trou- bles.
 A sworn statement of purity is with every bottle of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root.
 If you need medicine, you should have the best.
 If you are already convinced that Swamp-Root is what you need, you will find it on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large.
 However, if you wish first to try this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.-Adv.

door and window space. The boards are run up and down and add suffi- cient stiffness to the house. They are used also for the roof and covered with roofing paper. The back and sides of the house also can be covered with roofing paper, or the cracks can be covered with wooden battens or strips F to 5 inches wide. In the front of the house there should be left a win dow or opening which can be closed, when desired, by muslin screen or curtain which serves as a protection against bad weather but allows venti- lation. Tn the side a door should be provided which will allow entrance. A shed or single-slope roof is best be- cause easiest to build. A height of 6 feet in front and feet in the rear is ample. If desired, the house may be built higher, so that it is more convent ent to work in; the increase in cost will be slight. The ventilator in the rear is not needed in the northern part of the country, but is desirable in the South, where summers are very warm.
 Such house would be ample for a flock of 20 to 9 hens. It can be built quickly and easily and is cheap in construction.

MARCH TO VICTORY

Courage is a matter of the blood. Without good red blood man has a weak heart and poor nerves.
 In the spring is the best time to take stock of ones condition. If the blood is thin and watery, face pale or pimply, generally weak, tired and list less, one should take a spring tonic. One that will do the spring house. cleaning, an old-fashioned herbal rem edy that was used by everybody nearly 50 years ago is still safe and sane be- cause 1t contains no alcohol or nareot- ic. It is made up of Blood root, Gold en Seal root, Oregon Grape root. Queens root, Stone root, Black Cherry bark-extracted with glycerine and made into liquid or tablets. This blood tonic was first put out by Dr. Pierce in ready-to-use form and since then has been sold by million bottles as Dr. Pferce's Golden Medical Discovery. If druggists do not keep this in tablet form, send 60 cents for a vial to Dr. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y.
 Kidney disease carries away large percentage of our people. What Is to be done? The answer is easy Eat less meat, eat coarse, plain food, with plenty of vegetables, drink plenty of water between meals, and take an uric acid solvent after meals for while, such as Anuric (double strength), obtainable at almost any drug store. It was first discovered by Dr. Pierce. Most every one troubled with uric acid finds that Anuric dissolves the uric acid as hot water does sugar. You can obtain a trial package by sending ten cents to Doctor Pierce's Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute in Buffalo, N. Y.
