DOES YOUR BABY
SLEEP WELL AT NIGHT2

Baby's sleep is important. At night
baby sleeps about nine-tenths of the
time and should take daily nap until
about four years old. A quiet, peace
full sleep is a sign of perfect health
while disturbance Of sleep is almost
always due to improper feeding,
which causes Indigestion, constipa-
ton, sour stomach, gas, etc.
A baby specialist, while admitting
that a good baby laxative should be
used in such cases, warns mothers
against the use of strong, irritating
drugs that cause inflammation of the
delicate membrane of baby's stom-
ach, and recommends "'Baby Ease"
a perfected baby laxative by a baby
specialist.
f'Baby Ease" is excellent for all
disorders of the stomach and diges-
ton in babies and children. 1t is
easy-acting. non-irritating, does not
produce over-action or leave baby
constipated. 1t is a safe, harmless
and efficient baby laxative and cor
receive. If "Baby Ease" fails to
correct these troubles after a few
doses, take your baby to a specialist
for thorough examination. "Baby
Ease" may be had from your drug
gist. adv

BEAT The BEARS,
BROWN WARNS
Present Price Barely
Pays For Picking and
Ginning

ATLANTA, August 4.-The State
Department of Agriculture believes
active steps should be taken now to
overcome the usual fall bear raid on
cotton, which always develops about
the time the new crop is coming on
the market. Speaking on that subject
Commissioner j. j. Brown today
said:
Bear spectators are now sell
ing cotton futures many hundred
points below the spot market, in an
effort to break down the latter just
about the time preparations are be-
ing made for marketing the new
crop. This effort stresses more than
ever the necessity for warehousing
facilities under which there may be
issued gilt-edged certificates which
could be used in financing the new
crop.
1--WE must finance the new crop, at
least to the best of our ability, until
a price is reached that will give the
farmer a fair margin of profit above
the cost of production. 1t is the
only way to check the bear speculat-
ors who are selling millions of bales
short in their desperate effort to
break the market.
81 am convinced that if we had a
system of bonded warehouses such
as is now being urged through the
State Bureau of Markets in conjunc-
ton with the federal government,
we would have no difficulty in pro-
tecting ourselves. This plan is wor-
thy the careful consideration and CO.
operation of every wideawake far
mer and business man in Georgia.
eff the producers of cotton will
show to the world once more that
they are capable of financing and
pricing their own cotton, they will
have solved the question of the dis
tribution and marketing of the
south's great crop, in way to bring
the farmer a fair margin of profit
for many years to come. The Cot
ton States Advisory Board and the
American Cotton Association are
now doing all within their power to
assist the south along these very
lines"
