Notwithstanding the scarcity of
sugar, the cane growers who for
the last several years have never
made a full crop, and feel that the
price of sugar is not in keeping
with the cost of other products,
and the price of production, are
disposed to abondon cane grow
ing and go into other less expen-
sive crop. Sugar cane today is
the less paying of all crops, and
next year we would not be sur
prised to see stubble as the only
cane grown in many sections of
this parish.

b. A. Thomas Stock Remedies
are the best, they are scientifically
made and all medicine. They keep
the health up, and the feed bills
down. There is cause for every
effect, remove the cause the effect
removes itself.
The Poultry Remedies are espe-
clally made to relieve all the dis
eases in the Fowl family and makes
the Hens lay.
The Hog Remedy will positive
ly keep off the Cholera, and if gil
ven in the stages, will cure 80 per

Don't forget to keep on hand a
bottle of Farris' Collie Remedy for
Horses. 1t is SO simple with a
dropper, that child can give it.
Also a bottle of Farris' Healing
