treasury have both cmphatically warned business
That they Will not be helped In maintaining high prices.
For instance the federal board has announced
that II will finance me legitimate marketing OF the
cotton crop but viii not make loans TO speculaors to
enable them to hold thousands OF bales OF last years

who had bad stomach trouble; she
was bl0ated with gas, had no appetite
and could not sleep at night as her
nervous system was in a terrible
condition. Plant Juice rid her system
OF MOrms which must have been the
cause Of her troubles. She now has
a fine appetite, is not c0nstipaled and
her nerves are in fine condition SO
that she is able 30 sleep the night
through. My two boys were run
down and anaemic: their circulation
was poor and they had no appetite
for their meals. lt is nothing short of
marvellous the way they are being
built up by, Plant Juice; they have
good appetites and sleep well. We all

only too glad to let the public know
