KenoshA, Wis. Jan. Twenty

wealthy pioneer. Ben Ames lived
there also and was generally un-

But then Otto Dreys, well-to-do

Drinking a Glass
OF Hot Water is
a Splendid Habit
Cleanse and sweeten the system
each morning and wash away
poisonous, stagnant natter.

Those of us who are accustomed
to feel dull and heavy when we
arise: splitting headache, stuffy
from a cold, foul tongue. nasty
breath, acid stomach, lame back,
can, instead. both look and feel as
fresh as a daisy always by wash
ing the poisons and toxins from
the body with phosphated hot wa
ter each morning.
We should drink, before break
fast. a glass of hot water with a
teaspoonful Of limestone phos-
phate in it to flush from the stom-
ach. liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestible waste;
sour bile end poisonous toxins:
thus cleansing, sweetening and
purifying the entire alimentary
tract before eating more food.
The action of limestone phos-
phate and hot water on an empty
stomach is wonderfully invigorat-
ing. 1t cleals out all the sour fer
mentations, gases waste and acid
ity and gives one a fine appetite for
breakfast. A quarter pound Of
limestone phosphate costs very lit
tie at the drug store, but is enough
to make anyone who is bothered
with biliousness, constipation,
stomach trouble or rheumatism an
enthusiast on internal sanitation

BIG GINNING,
Richmond County Ginned
23,050 Bales of Cotton
from 1920 Crop. Biggest
Crop in History of County.

Richmond county ginned over
two and a half times as much
cotton this past crop year than
in 1916, and 4,9O7 bales more
than the previous high.water-
mark crop. In 1916 the county
ginned 9,259 bales; in 1919. the
crop amounted to 1850, where
as the crop for 1920 amounted to
23,676.
The Government final figures
for the 1920 crop we're announced
last Monday, and they showed
a total crop for the entire South
of l3,365,754 bales. That is about
2,769,000 equivalent 500-pound
bales less than the record crop
of 1914 and is slightly smaller
than the 1904 crop.
The Census Bureaus figures
of cotton actually ginned, which
are accepted as the final produc-
ton statistics, show the crop to
be 378,754 bales more than was
estimated by the Department of
Agriculture last December in its
final forecast of the year, which
foreshadowed 1887, 900 bales.
The average gross weight per
bale for the crop, counting round
as half bales and excluding lint
ers, was 506.4 pounds, compared
with 5O4.2 for 1919 and 505.6 for
1918. Ginneries operated for the
1920 crop numbered 1876, COM
pared with 1885 for 1919.
Cotton crops for a series OF
wears comDare as follows.
