WORKING OVERTIME
ON CITY STREETS
Big Trucks Operate lS Out of "a
Hours In Order To Hurry
Work-Asphalt Being Laid

No time is being lost by the
hampton & Burks Co., some of
the men working 1S hours per
day, in order to keep the supplies
on hand for the paving squad.
which is making rapid strides on
Main and other streets where the
work is in evidence. Drivers of
the big trucks who handled
crushed stone during the entire
day Monday, changed to hauling
sand Monday night, and the big
trucks did not cease until 3 o'clock
Tuesday morning The sand was
placed at the disposal of the con-
crete force, which has been bust
ly engaged for some time on Main
street. This work is progressing
as result very rapidly, and it is
the intention to continue this pace
If possible, in order to prevent the
interruption of business on Main
street as little as possible. The
men men have been working from
Is to Is hours regularly, but this
is the first time they have been
called upon to put in Is hours, and
they readily consented. The sand
which is so essential, was lacking
tor a short time and this is one
of the reasons for so much time
being given to the transfer to the
scene OF operations now.
The asphalt machine is working
nicely and asphalt is being placed,
although not to full capacity of
the machine, as it will be within
a day or two. With favorable
weather, there will be some very
material changes in the condition
OF the streets this week. 1t is
the intention to push the work of
asphalting Lancaster avenue to
completion at the earliest possible
period, and this much travelled
thoroughfare will soon be opened
to the public. There have been a
number of changes made in the
working forces, as we'll as the
management, and indications arc
that there will be more headwav
made in the near future

WEED SPECTATORS
MUCH IN EVIDENCE
Offers Spurned By Producers
Who Are Determined To Say
Good Price or No Sale"

Tobacco spectators were much
! in evidence in Richmond and dur
ing the court day proceedings,
there were many offers for pro-
auctions yet in the field, but num-
erous inquiries brought forth no
sales. There are said to have
been various prices offered for
crops yet uncut, but the producer
is said to have refused them one
and all 1t was difficult to esti-
mate the figure offered, however,
the word was put out early that
the production in Madison coun-
ty was to be large one, and that
there would be plentiful supply
on hand. However, the produc-
'ers claimed to man that they
would realize a good price for
their product before they could
get as much money as the man
who worked by the day, and they
have apparently established them
selves against any propaganda to
the contrary.
The average producer is resign
ed and determined. Resigned to
await the regular season for sell
ing and determined to- have a fair
price on his tobacco will not go on
the market. Indications are that
there will be lively times later
when the sales begin, for it is
known many are anxious to buy,
and even take a chance on the
prevailing prices later on. This
puts it up>to the producer who be-
iieves he is able to take a chance.
as well as the speculator, and is
therefore holding his production.
The situation is that Madison
county will produce about 15,00O,-
900 pounds Of tobacco this year,
but it is claimed this amount will
not be placed on the market, since
there will be certain per cent of
it thrown out. This does not
change the situation, since the.
average production is felt assured
and the producer is taking
chances on his quality. The hold
ing OF tobacco by the producers
here indicates a determination to
realize all possible out of the crop
and they are figuring the high
prices they were compelled to pay
for the planting and caring for the
crop. 1t is said that shippers
are going to be as scarce as other
lines of workmen during the sea-
son, and this is a another matter
being given consideration by the
producers.

Firm Name Printed Wrong

1t was the firm of Gaines and
Starbuck, that have opened up the
Dodge agency here, not Scar
brough and Gaines, as an adver-
tisement in the Daily Register err
roneously gave it the other day.
The Dodge is a very popular make
of machine and the new firm is
being congratulated upon secur.
ing the local agency for it here,
local buyers having had to depend
upon Lexington in the past.

Sufferers from Indigestion are apt

that they crave. These tablets

it to perform its functions naturally.

One-half of the Madison county to-

in condition to record normal
quality. Some of the producers state
they will not have as much first-cla.ss

tnat the earlier the diagnosis is made.
the better the chance of a cure. And
mpy of the cases that were not really
cured, were improved even though ad
vanced In the disease.
Every one who has a cough which
has lasted longer than three weeks
should go to a good physician and be
examined thoroughly for tuberculosis.
II the physician finds tuberculosis

or some other such institution. Do
not waste time trying to find a doctor
who will contradict the diagnosis, bet.
ter go to the sanatorium and if the
doctor at the sanatorium finds that
you have not tuberculosis, he will tell
you so and send you back home. Be
sure. do not take chances.
The cold that hangs on; the contin

even i'll small amounts; pleurisy; any
OF these are signs that should maks

Some persons may get well at home,
but all patients should, if possible, be
sent to sanatorium In order that
they may be taught the proper way to
take the treatment and to learn the
precautions necessary for continuing
IN good health after the cure has been
reached. Most cases who break down
are those who have not properly
learned this lesson.
So remember. tuberculosis is cura-

LOST MOUNTAIN

The year 1919 was one of the best
cotton crop years we have had sold
COR the best price, but now we have
swung to the other extreme, making
very poor crop and selling at such
1 low price as to make it hard for the
farmers.
The farmers should quit raising
cotton or any other crop that does
aot sell for a profit. No business man
or anybody else would sell goods be-
low cost.
It would now be foolish for the
farmers to sell their products below
cost, and they should organize and
demand a living profit or let the
world do without.

Players Must Pay
DUN Fines This Year

There may be some points on
which American and National
League magnates are not united, but
II Garry Hermann, of the Cincinnati
club, is to be believed. ar club own
ers are as one man on the PROPOSE
ton OF paying fines for players dur
ing the coming season. Players who
are assessed-regardless of what the
offense may be-will have to pay out
OF their own coin, and all owners
have pledged themselves to support
the new agreement.
Mr., Hermann says the agreement
10 force players 10 pay their own
fines win have more rar-reaching
effect than appears to the casual OBJ
server. II will put pep into the games
by doing away with needless wrang-
ling and argument; it will make the
players depend more upon their abil-
ity than over their conversational ac-
complishments, and it will mean less
trouble generally because ball play
ers do not like to pay out their own
money, Asked how the magnates in
tended to enforce the new agreement,
Hermann shrugged his shoulders and
declared II would be ie- entirely to
the honesty Of the owners. ''If m
owner violates the agreement he will
be making trouble for himself and
paying out money he could other
wise save" said Garry
