EVER SALIVATED BY
CALOMEL7 HORRIBLE
Calomel is quicksilver and acts like
dynamite on your liver.

Calomel loses you a day. You
know what calomel is. It's mercury
quicksilver. Calomel is dangerous. 1t
crashes into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Gallo
mel attacks the bones and should
never be put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish,
constipated and all knocked out and
believe you need dose Of danger
Gus calomel just remember that your
druggist sells for few cents a large
bottle Of Dodson's Liver Tone, which
is entirely vegetable and pleasant to
take and is a perfect substitute for
calomel. 1t is guaranteed to start
your liver without stirring you up
inside, and can not salivate.
Don't take calomel! 1t makes you
sick the next day; it loses you a days
work. Dodson's Liver Tone straight
ems you right up and you feel great.
Give it to tie children because it is
perfectly harmless and doesn't gripe.

HOkE SMITH ADVISES
FARMERS TO HOLD COTTON

New Orleans, La. - Declaring
the Southeastern States would today
be in vastly more prosperous con-
dition if they had never raised a bale
of cotton, Senator Hoke Smith, of
Georgia, in an address here before
the meeting of cotton growers
factors and bankers, urged the neces-
sity Of holding cotton until the de-
mand created a satisfactory price.
81 earnestly hope," said he Geor-
gia Senator. that the farmers will
they can receive d vastly better price
for it. You must stand together col
lectively organized by counties, and
hold your cotton until it brings you
a price that will compensate for the
labor put into it's culture. The cotton
farmer should during the coming
season receive at least as high a price
for his cotton as that which cotton has
brought any time during the past
twelve months"
He advised farmers to keep new
cotton off the market entirely during
September and from the first of Oc-
tober on to sell slowly only as manu-
facturers need it. "In the meantime"
he said, while gradually selling your
cotton plant foodstuffs and raise cat
tie and hogs. Let the world under
shand that you will meet the situation
next fall, independent and owning
your cotton"

ORGANIZATION OF COTTON
ASSOCIATION IS PROGRESSING

Columbia, Sept. 22-Splendid pro-
gress in the organization of the South
Carolina Division of the American
Cotton Association was reported from
most of the counties of the state last
week. Some of them have already
gone beyond their quota of members
while others expect to reach their
quotas within the present week.
In some counties the committees
have not completed their canvasses
yet. State Manager B. F. Mcleod in
statement issued Monday urged up
on these committees the necessity
of completing the canvass at once.
"The association has ambitious
plans" said Mr.. Mcleod "but it will
be unable to put them into effect un-
til thorough organization is had. We
want to arrange to take care of the
| distress cotton in every county i'm
mediately. To do this it is necessary
that our membership campaign is
pushed to completion.
Quite a number of townships in
the state have reported 100 per cent
membcrships-that is to say every
man in the township joined the asso-
citation. A number of other town.
| ships reported SO per cent member
ships.
"The people seem to be awake to
the necessity of organization. All
we need now to put the campaign
over is good bunch of canvassers
The report comes from every section
that everybody seems willing to join.
II am delighted to see the women
taking such an interest in the cam
paign in some sections. They know
what poverty means to them. 1t falls
more heavily on them than the men.
They see in the organization of the
farmers, the merchants, the business
and professional men chance for
the South to throw off the shackels of
commercial slavery.
Let me urge that the people of
every county rally to the standard Of
South Carolina Cotton Association
Opportunity is knocking at our door.
Will we turn deaf ear?"

COTTON WAREHOUSE
ACT AMENDED

Clemson College, Sept. 22-To
place the business of cotton ware
housing on staple basis and provide
receipts for cotton that are negoti-
able Mt any bank has long been an
aim of persons Interested in cotton,
and under the amended United States
cotton warehouse act this is likely to
be realized.
The warehouse act has just been
amended so far as to permit the ac-
ceptance of personal bonds from
warehouses and to permit the issu-
ance of negotiable receipts, when re-
quested by the depositors of cotton
in the warehouse, without stating the
the grade of the cotton. The grade
must be stated, however, unless the
request to omit it is made.
The purpose of the warehouse act
is to create warehouse receipt of
unquestioned value and one which
will be acceptable to all bankers as
security for obtaining loans, regard
less of the location Of the warehouse.
In this way warehousemen will fur
nish receipt to their customers
which will be of the utmost value to
them as negotiable paper and enable
them to borrow close to the actual
value of their stored goods at cheaper
interest rates. Thus they may market
their cotton slowly and in conformity
with the needs of the manufacturers
The full description of the cotton
stored requested to be stated on the
face of the receipt will enable the
owner to know the value of his cot.
ton and enbale him to market it in.
tellegently. The proper development
of the warehouse will make possible
the practice of marketing the cottor
crop through the warehouse, and thus
avoid the enormous losses resulting
from weather damage.

SUCCESSFUL COVER
CROP CAMPAIGNS

Clemson College, Sept.-Cover
crop campaigns have been conducted
in several South Carolina counties
recently with fine results. In New
berry County six school district meet
ings were held to interest the farmers
in growing more clover and starting
alfalfa. These were attended by 88
farmers, 81 Of whom ordered alfalfa
and clover seed and ground lime.
County Agent Mills says: 81 find
that farmers are becoming disgusted
with fodder pulling as means of get
ting roughage and only wait to be
shown a substitute, One or two acres
of alfalfa to the mule on each farm
will deal death blow to fodder pull
ling"
In Greenville County the clover
campaign resulted in ordering II 900
pounds of crimson clover seed for
thirty-odd farmers who have not be-
fore planted clover, thus doubling the
number Of farmers planting clover
and more than doubling the acre
age in the county.
In Chetser County farmers have
bought two cars of rye seed for cover
crops to turn under in the dough
stage as green manuring, many far
mers who used rye last year having
declared that rye had increased their
cotton yield 25 per cent up.
In Fairfield County $50 tons Of
lime and 5000 pounds of alfalfa seed
have been ordered already and orders
are still being made.
In Abbeville County a two-day
drive for alfalfa resulted in securing
twenty new alfalfa farmers, who will
plant alfalfa by close following of
the county agents thorough prepara-
ton rules

"a MAN MAY BE DOWN

When Thomas Mott Osborne. the
New York millionaire was placed in

I The effect of this method is now
nationwide. What has been tried in
Sing Sing has been exemplified in the
South by the Salvation Army.

morning to conduct special religious

from Washington, D. c., to serve a
iive-year sentence.
Two weeks after attending the Grs,
service of the Salvation Army, he was
converted and became one of the firm
boosters of the Brighter Day

organization. From that time on he
was a model prisoner and did every
thing within his power to spread the
Gospel of Faith among his fellowmen.
he served his sentence and upon his
release came direct to the Salvation
Army headquarters in Atlanta and
was sent to the Industrial Home on
Whitehall St., where he was put to
work until permanent position could
be secured for him.
Several days later the same Young
man was sent to Atlanta to do some
shopping for the home. While in one
of the largest stores he met a man
from Tennessee, who recognized him.
He came over to the man who was re-
Gently released from the Federal
penitentiary and said, "Unless YOU
give me money, l will give you up :;

That did not alarm the man who
wanted to make good. He went to
the nearest telegraph station and
wired the authorities of Tennessee
the following message: "T am ready
to give myself up; come and get me. /"
The authorities came to Atlanta and
arrested the man who was befriended
by the Salvation Army, taking him
pack to the scene of his crime. He
was tried and sentenced to five
months. He served his sentence and
