BIG SEAT SALE FOR
.MOUNTAINEER GAME
Great Interest Being Shown
in Opening of the Foot
ball Game.

MoRGANToWN, Sept. 26.- Never
in the history of football here, with the
possible exception of 1917 when the
championship University Of Pitts
burgh football team played West Vir-
gina on the same relative date, has
there been as much interest in the
opening of gridiron campaign as ap-
pears in the West Virginia Marietta
contest scheduled for tomorrow after
noon on the local field.
The best barometer of the interest
is the sale of reserved seat tickets
which has been in progress at Reinei
& Cores for the past four days. AL
ready, more tickets have been dispos-
ed of than are ordinarily sold for minor
engagements and Of course the big
gest period of the sale is yet to come.
While the Varsity is battling Ma
rietta here, the Reserve team will go
TO Salisbury (Pa.) to meet the strong
eleven representing Kiski school. Just
what men will make this trip and what
of the squad will stay here to oppose
Marietta will likely not be known TIL
tonight as the Reserve team will not
leave here till Saturday morning. II
is certain, however, that Capt. Rodgers,
Bailey, Hite, Ice, Harrick, McCue, Kay,
Archer, Hill, Lentz, Lewis, King. Ha-
ger, Martin, Mills, Barrick, Puts,
Brooks and one or two others will be
here for the Marietta contest and yet 4
strong team will go to Kiski.
The game tomorrow will begin az
$3.50 p. m. and will be handled by D.
W. Merriman, Geneva, referee; Dan
B. Daugherty, w. & j., umpire, and
M. W. Lanham, West Virginia Wes-
leyan, head linesman. The students
have been organized and the Fresh
men, upper classmen and band, re-
spectively, will have large sections Of
seats while 300 Methodist ministers
in Conference here will occupy sec
ton.

bad condition. Gas formed in my
stomach and pressed against my heart
and caused it to palpitate and inter-
nit. This greatly alarmed me and |
was in troubled state Of mind and
uneasy as to the result. Had severe
headaches and rheumatism. / tried
all kinds Of so-called remedies but
got no relief whatever. / saw Nerv-

persons knew who had been great

tie Of Nerv- Worth and took it as d.

SHEEP INDUSTRY
MOST PROFITABLE
FOR MAURY FARMS
JAMES r. PETTY DECLARES Ex-
PERiENCE OF EIGHT YEARS
PROVES IT.
CANINE IS THE ONLY MENACE
From Flock Of 1871 Head He has
. Sold During the Past Spring More
Than $4,000 Worth of Wool and
Lambs-All From Grazing.

For the past eight years James T
Petty, one of the leading farmers OF
the county, and former chairman OF
the county road commission, has
demonstrated that sheep are among
the best paying animals that can be
grown on the farms of Maury county
From Mr.. Petty's ock of sheep he
has this year sold enough lambs and
wool to bring him a very comforta
BILE income were he to leave out all
of the other products of the farm.
With 191 sheep, ewes and bucks
in his flock Mr.. Petty has sold over
$4,000 worth of lambs and wool. He
grazed his sheep practically all the
winter. The income came almost al
together from grass and winter COW
er crops as he hardly fed the lambs
or sheep at adj, He now has in his
flock after the sale of lambs and wool
more sheep and better sheep than he
had year ago.
You can understand" said Mr..
Petty, why have been such an ear
nest advocate of protection for sheep
from the dogs. have found that moth
ing is more profitable on the farm
than sheep and If we have no losses
from the dogs they are more profita-
BILE by far than anything else one can
put on the farm. They not only re-
turn good profits, but they eat good
deal in the pastures that otherwise
would be wasted and not consumed.
Not that alone but it pays whole lot
better to put ones hillsides in grass,
pasture them with sheep, see them get
richer all the time, save in labor an
noyance, than it does to do SO much
blowing and have the rains wash the
lands away. My experience of the
past eight years has made me a great
believer in sheep for Maury county.
1t is the ideal climate for them"

Half a coach load of Giles coun-
tians went to Nashville this morning
to urge the state highway commission
to locate the proposed state and feder-
al highway over what is known as the
Bethel route which goes directly
through the county, north and south.
This is the route approved by the
county court of Giles county although
there is some sentiment for the route
by way of Ardmore, Ala. 1t is claim
ed, however, that this route is nine
miles longer than the other and would
entail a. large additional cost and
would not serve as many people.
