The following remarkable endorse
ment of Tanlac was given recently
by Mrs. Alice Gresham Dodd, at the
Gresham Memorial Home, Gavin Park
Evansville, Ind, which home was pre-
scented to her by the patriotic people
OF Indiana, as evidence of their appre
citation of the services rendered to his
country by her son, Corporal James
B. Gresham, the first American sol
der killed in France. Expressions OF
sympathy were received by Ms. Dodd
from all parts Of the United States,
and the newspapers of the country
carried the story of the first war
mother.

suited in the serious breakdown of

 Why suffer half an hour of headache pain waiting for your stomach to digest solid tablets and powders, when Aspironal, the new Elixir. gives relief right now Your Doctor prefers Aspironal for the reason that it is not dangerous to the heart and does not upset the stomach.
 The next time you have headache go to your nearest drug store. hand the clerk half dollar for a bottle of Aspironal and tell him to serve you two teaspoonsful in a little water. With your watch in your hand count off two minutes and call for your money back. as per manufacturers guaran- tee. if you can't feel your headache fading away within the time limit. Your druggist invites and expects you to try Aspironal, so don't be bashful. Everybody is doing it. Same guarantee applies to colds coughs and neuralgia.-Adv.

was instantly paid over to. bind the trade
 His brother sold to the same party at S75 an acre under similar conditions.
 With the purchase price of their lands in their pockets they started out to buy other lands, first in the vicinity of their homes, but failing to find any for sale at even the price at which they had sold their own, they went into other localities. Eventually they went into central and south Alabama There they ran into the same conditions.
 So back to Limestone county they went and sought to buy back their old homes. And here are the conditions under which they finally again came into the posses sion of their former property:
 Their vendee, in the meantime, had ac- uuired an additional tract of 200 acres. When asked to reconvey the property to the two brothers he agreed to do so, at the price of S105 an acre, provided they would also take the additional 200 acres at the same price. They did 1t.
 This transaction cost the two brothers S4O,OOO.
 This is but one instance of the rapidly enhancing value of farm lands in Ala bama. While this transaction may not be paralleled in Limestone or elsewhere in the state there are many others that ap- proximate it.
 Farm land values in the state have in creased more than 50 per cent in six years, rising from about $14 an acre in 1914 to SPA in 1920 according to state- ment given out by the United States de- partment of agriculture a few days ago.
 The high price of cotton has had some thing to do in making farming lands more valuable, but not all Livestock, corn, wheat, potatoes, fruits vegetables, bet ter farrhing conditions, fertilization of lands, all these had their influence
 Then farmers from the west having sold their lands out there at from 50 to 100 per cent over pre-War prices came south seeking cheaper lands. Hundreds of these have come to Alabama and they are coming every week. They are ln- vesting in farm lands, thereby creating demand that naturally makes prices go up.
  planted to the fourteen principal crops in Ala bama in 1919. As the average enhanced value of these lands since 1914 is S10 an acre, the wealth of the state in this one item alone has increased over $1, ,OO0, 900 in six years That is about double the taxable valuation of all real estate both country and town property, in the state in the year 1919.
 In other words, the actual increased value of the lands in six years exceeds the total taxable value of all lands in the state.
 Alabama raises enough corn to supply the home demand and her annual production of peanuts and sweet potatoes exceeds the home consump- iton several times over Her annual wheat yield is almost equal to one bushel for each man, woman and child in the state.
 Truly, Alabama is making rapid strides for ward in agriculture and agricultural wealth; Add the mineral and manufactured products and who will doubt that in the course of very few years Alabama will be right at the top of all the states in farm and factory and mine production and in commerce?
