ADVISES AGAINST
BIG COTTON ACREAGE
COUNTY FARM AGENT SAYS EV-
ERYTHING is UNFAVORABLE
FOR CROP THIS YEAR.

To the Terrell Farmers: Why take
such a chance on the cotton crop this
year, when everything else is bring
ing such a good price? We need cot
ton as well as any other farm prod
uct, but all odds point against the
cotton crop for 1918. First, we had
an exceptionally good crop last year
for weevil conditions; second, we
failed to destroy cotton stalks in
time to do very much good, and we
may expect an earlier and much
greater infestation than last year.
Then, why take a greater chance in
1918 than you did in 1917? The
weevils have ruined some counties
that went headlong after cotton. So
be cautious, and plant your crops so
if you fail on cotton you will have
peanuts, beans, corn, hay and plenty
of meat to fall back on. The time
is here when the one-crop system will
no longer work.
We made a splendid fight on the
boil weevils the past year, and can
do SO in 1918, provided it does not
rain too much the latter part of
June and in July. In case it does
rain very much in these two months
the cotton crop will not be an i'm
portant factor il Terrell county in
the fall Of 1918. So be careful, and
cut the acreage instead of increasing
it. Yours truly, ]. L. ALLEN,
County Agent.

f." Who Will Win
This Battle ?"

Your kidneys are the filters Of the body.
If they become inactive and fail to elm
mate the waste matter, they are apt to
throw the whole mechanism of the body
out of order, thus toxic poiSons can ac-
cumulate in the system and be as deadly
as snake venom.
Besides causing the minor ailments Of
rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago and back
ache, neglect of the kidneys is apt to
develop into more serious diseases, such
as diabetes or stone in the bladder.
Rid the body of toxic poisons- clean
the bladder and kidneys and cure the
twinges of rheumatism with Anuric
and you win the battle of life.
Anuric was first discovered by DIR. Pierce.
and has benefited thousands of sufferers
as well as appeased and eliminated the
ravages of the more serious kidney dis
eases. Now procurable at any good drug
