Mr.. c. H. Bewley, superintendent
of the water commission, requests US
to state to the citizens of Greeneville
that unless our people refrain from
using water so freely just now, it is
quite probable that the town will suf-
fer from water famine within a
very short time. The dry weather
has decreased the water supply. The
usually large stream which flows
from the big spring is said to be
growing smaller day by day. If the
present dry weather should continue
ten days longer Greeneville will have
to look elsewhere for her water sup
ply.

THE WATER QUESTION

For the information Of those using
City water, | wish to state that we
are using about 10000 gallons of
water each "a hours, more than the
spring is supplying, The only rea
son that we have water to supply the
city is that our stand-pipe holds 317,-
900 gallons, and for the past two
days we have taken out of that re-
serve 10000 gallons. At that rate
in week, we will be entirely out of
water, except what the spring is fur
nishing, which is about 10000 gal
Ions less than we are using each day.
Let me urge that each patron avoid
as much as they can, any waste of wa
ter in any way. If you have a leak
about your premises, have it repaired
at once, and use just as small amount
Of water as you can for domestic
purposes and cease sprinkling your
yards and perhaps we can get through
this drought,
THE WATER COMMISSION.

Summer Complaint of Children

There is not anything like so many
leaths from this disease now as be
fore Chamberlain's Collie and Diar,
rhoea Remedy came into such gener-
al use. When this remedy is given
with castor oil as directed and prop
err care is taken as to diet, it is safe
to say that fully nineJy-nine out of
every hundred cases recover. Mr.. W
G. Campbell, of Butler, Tenn, says
II have used Chamberlain's Collie and
Diarrhoea Remedy for summer com
plant in children. 1t is far ahead
Of anything Thave ever used for this
purpose"

Much of the tobacco throughout
this section will be cut and housed

farmers were fortunate enough to get
out their plants early. In some sec

late crops are said to not be hurt Sc
badly. This means that with any
thing like a good season from this
time on, the late planting will pro-
duce better results.

Loss Of Appetite.

AS a general rule there IS nothing
serious about a loss of appetite, and
if you skip meal or only eat two
meals day for a few days you will
soon have relish for your meals
when meal time comes. Bear in mind
that at least five hours Should always
elapse between meals so as to give
the food ample time to digest and
the stomach a period of rest before
a second meal is taken. Then if you
eat no more than you crave anG take
reasonable amount of outdoor exer,
else every day you will not need to
worry about your appetite. When
the loss of appetite is caused by con,
stipation as is often the case, thai
should be corrected at once. A dose
of Chamberlain's Tablets will do it.

BY Jan. l. it is hoped that nearly
a thousand herds of Iowa cattle will
have been tested for tuberculosis un-
der the new law which went into effect
July /.
The average percentage of animals
reacting to the test and showing the
disease is a little higher in this state
than in other states where they have Il
similar law. The average in Iowa is
five per cent while in other state on
ly an average of fonr per cent of the
tested cattle give the reaction that
indicates whether or not the animal
has tuberculosis. The high average
shows that Iowa needed the tubercu-
losis law and the work it accomplishes.
The owner OF II herd is not Il heavy
loser if inspectors find his cattle in
fected, the owner loses only one-third
of the appraised value of the animal
less the amount received for salvage
The state stands One.third the loss
and the federal government stands
one-third. Both the government and
state, however, limit this liability to
$50 each for pure bred animal and
$40 each for, Il grade.

Victim, of Thief.

Stratfou Courier: Through his ac-
quaintance with Il soldier at Camp
Dodge, Arthur ISaacson got into trOu-
BILE which might have been serious had
not his character been above reproach.
Mr.. Isaacson was spending Thursday
night in Boone when he met Andrew
Peterson. a soldier whom he had been
acquainted with at Camp Dodge. Peter
son told lsaacson that he had his Buick
car ut Des MoineS and that lie would
give him $500 if he would go with
him to Dcs MOineS that night in q
HAYNES car. which he claimed he had
bought in Boone IL month before. and
drive the Buick to Boone for him. Is
aacSon agreed 10 go with him and they
arrived in Dcs MOincs about :; O'Clock
Friday morning. Peterson told Isaac
son to put the car in Il garage and that
they would get the Buick car as soon
as it was daylight. About Z o'clock
Peterson again told IsaacsOn to go to
the garage and get the Haynes, and
that they would drive out to u garage
near Riveiyicw park where he claimed
he had the Buick stored. On the way
out Peterson produced two bottles OF
pop and insisted that lSaacsOn drink
one of them. The latter did not want
the pop. but was finally persuaded 10
drink it. And i'll about ten minutes
he was under the influence OF Il strong
drug. Peterson then slugged him and
took IL considerable sum OF money from
his bill fold and then disappeared and
has not been seen since.
Although in Il daZed condition Isaac
son continued TO drive around in Des
Moines for several hours until the pO-
lice and detectives stopped him and
took him to the station on the charge
Of driving a stolen car. Later devel-
Opment proved that the car had been
stolen in Boone from Noble Clark by
Peterson and as soon as he arrived in
DcS MOincS he recognized IsaacSOn rs
a personal friend and secured his re-
lease. Mr.. 1s:acsOn was the innocent
victim of Petcrson's criminality besides
loOSing a good sized sum of money lin
self.

More Pork from South.

dicative of the decidedly limited produc-

measure Of the increase in popularity
of pork production during that period
