Snake Story.

A species Of viper Wiper macropa)
from Bosnia. about is inches in length,
seems to feed exclusively on grasshop-
pers. An interesting point about this
little snake is that, although poison
osss, it may be handled with impunity.
If teased. it may hiss and snap, but
never bites unless seriously hurt.

task. The campaign has now been or.
ganized with the general headquarters
in Nashville, Tenn, where DIR. L. r.
Scarborough, president of the South
western Baptist Theological Seminary
at Fort Worth, is in charge as general
director for the South. He is assisted
by a number of men in charge of spe,
Cia1 divisions of the work, while each
of the eighteen states in the territory
Of the Southern Baptist Convention
has in turn perfected a state organiza-
ton, including a State Director, a
State Organizer and State Publicity

tent that practically all of the more
than rs, ZOO local Baptist congregations
in the South have their workers
named to help put over the biggest
church drive that has ever been at
tempted in this section of the country.
There are 5000, 900 white Baptists hold
ing church membership in the South,
and it is hoped to reach every man,
woman and child among them with
the message of this campaign and
give each of them a part in the plan
Of saving the world by giving to the
extent Of their ability to this vast con.
servation fund.
Christian education, home and for
eign missions, state missions, minis
terial relief, orphanages and hospitals,
are among the various general inter
ests of the denomination that will be
cared for in this campaign, the matter
of local church expenses, and local
church equipment not being included,
Between now and November 30th
every effort will be put forth In or
ganizing and modifying the Baptist
forces in the South, preparatory to the
launching of the big drive for the sub.
scriptions and cash payments. July
vas known as preparation month.
August was designated as information

fort has been put forth in informing

paign, while September has been des'
ignated as ~intercession month, October
as enlistment month, November as
stewardship month, and the period
from November 80 to December Z as
victory week.
I'VE have undertaken a big task
DR.. Scarborough, the General Director,
says, but we have undertaken it In
Gods name and for His glory, and by
trusting in God and doing our whole
duty, we will succeed. There is work
here for all, and glory enough for all
II we win, but we cannot succeed ex
cept we labor diligently and pray
earnestly"

BENEFITS OBTAINED
FROM BETTER SlRES
Farmer Increases Products and
Receives More Money.
Crusade Launched by Department of
Agriculture Will Eventually Result
in Reducing Cost of Living
to Consumer.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
The definition Of the term pure
bred sires" is written in one word
economy" There are many deflnl-
lions many of them learned and long,
that might be written, but the breeding
experts OF the United States depart
ment of agriculture, when they met to
launch the state and national crusade
for Better Sires-Better Stock
agreed that the primary meaning Of it
is economy.
The scrub hog requires a certain
number of bushels of corn to make -OU
pounds of pork. The pure-bred or high
Grade hog takes the same number OF
bushels of corn and makes 300 pounds
If pork. The pure-bred or high-srade
cow makes three gallons of milk out
of the same quantity of silage that the
scrub COW uses to make gallon ana
"a half of milk. These figures are not
meant to be scientifically exact, OF
course. but merely to Illustrate the
principle. The result is that the farm
or gets more pounds of salable PROD
net out of his feed when he uses pure
| bred sires at the head of his herds and
! gocks. He gets more money ana MS
| family lives better. But something
else happens. When he sells more
mounds of a better class of meat OF
more gallons of rich milk he feeds the
civ family better than he did when he
Abbeville progress. (Abbeville, Vermilion Parish, La.) 1913-1944, 1919-11-15

kept scrub stock The final result Of
pure-bred sires is that the farmer
makes more money and the city family
gets more and better food, probably at
lower prices.
The crusade, the experts say, eventu-
ally will tend to result in reducing the
cost of living to the consumer without
taking the difference out of the pocket
of the producer. For that reason, they
point out, the city man has definite
money interest in the better sires cru
SADIE. While he can hardly be expect
ed to put the same amount of effort
into it that the live stock breeder
should, he is expected to give encOur-
agement and aid to the program when
ever the opportunity offers. And there
will be no lack of opportunity, paruc-
ularly in the smaller cities and towns
where the farmers are In close con-
tact with the city business men.

Every druggist in town has noticed
a great falling off in the sale of Cal

"CalOmel is dangerous and people

sonaliy guaranteed by every druggist
who sells it. A large bottle doesn't
cost very much but if it fails to give
relief in every case of liver sluggish

Chickasha, Okla.-Mrs. ]. W. Walker
recently said this: 1--WE use Black
Draught as a family medicine and
think it is the only liver medicine
made. My husband makes it up and
uses it as a tonic as well as laxa-
tive. use it for headache, sour stom-
ach, a full heavy feeling after meals,
which l suppose is Indigestion, and it
certainly does me a lot of good.
MY husband had some kind Of stom-
ach trouble-we don't know just what.
1t would strike him just any time in
the day and cramp or pain him just
terribly bad. Someone told him how
to make a tea of the BIack-Draught,
which he did. 1t did him so much
good, it removed the cause and cured
him. Since then we have praised the
Black-Draught to our friends, and
gladly do So"
Seventy years Of successful use has
made ThedfOrd's Black-Draught q
standard. household remedy. Every
member of the family at times needs
the help that Black-Draught can give
in cleansing the system and prevent
