OPPOSED SULTAN
 OF TURKEY DIES

Amsterdam, July 4-Mohammed V. Sultan of Turkey, died at o'clock last night, says Constantinople dis patch received here today by way of Vienna.
 Mohammed V, thirty-fifth sover- eign of Turkey in direct descent of khe House of Osman, founder of the empire, came to the throne by a coup-d' etat on April 27,>1909, after having been held for thirty-three years prisoner by his brother, Sul- tan Abdul II, in the royal palace and gardens in Constantinople
 Mohammed V was born in Constan- tinople November 3, 1S45. He was of a studious disposition and read widely in Turkish literature. His long imprisonment with lack of exer- else and rich living undermined his health and several times he was re- ported dead or seriously i'll. His ap- pearance showed the ravages of time and tn eworries of an unsteady throne.

ARE ADVERTISED
 MEDICINES WORTHLESS

There is no more reason to con- demn all advertised medicines than there is to condemn all physicians or all druggists. Fakes there are in ev- cry profession, but they do not last long. Take medicine like Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, the true test of it's merit is the fact that for forty years it has been relieving women of America from the worst form of female ailments, constantly growing in popularity and favor, until now it is recognized from ocean to ocean as the standard remedy for fe- male ills.

Combined Effort.

The great artist who paints picture which compels the admiration of the world does not do so with one sweep of the brush in one moment of inspira- tion. The great masterpiece is the product of thousands of strokes of the brush, of infinitesimal bits of pigment each done with consummate art. Every tiny bit of paint, every swift stroke does it's tiny part toward what becomes at last 3 marvel of ages. So must we work, stroke by stroke, bit here and bit there, until our masterpiece has been completed.

MARKETING ASSOCIATIONS.

There has been some talk in all
the counties looking to the forma-
ticn of marketing associations by
the formers in the different sections.
The talk is taking root in some
places ard there is promise that some
good may come out of the agitation.
The object of the marketing as
sociation is of course, to find a mar
ket for farm products generally and
to devise means to put these pro-
ducts on the market. 1t has never
been any trouble for the farmers to
find a market in which to buy
things, so long as the money lasted,
but there has been little effort to
find markets for the products of the
farm, other than cotton, for which
there is a market of some kind at
every crossroads.
1t is true that we have had talk
all these years about diversified
crops, and markets for the same.
The bankers have by word of mouth
urged the planting of other crops,
and the merchants have condemned
the farmers for planting all cotton,
by word of mouth also, but there
has never been a basis for credit at
the banks or in the stores except
the number of acres planted in cot
ton.
Now, this is not as it should be.
