CUT COTTON COST
 BY MAKING FOOD
Southern Farm Prosperity Absolutely Dependent on Cutting Produc- ton Cost Through Food
 Making and Saving.

Atlanta, .-(Special.) l.)-"A right about-face movement in 1921 is neces- sary if the farmers of the South are to get on safe, firm ground again" said H. c. Hastings, President of the great Southeastern Fair.
 Tt looks as if we all went cotton crazy last spring, despite all the dan. ger signals flying and the disregard of plain facts as to costs of cotton production. We have repeated our fol. lies of 1911 and 1914 and piled up debts based on costly food and grain to be paid for by cotton that is now below cost of production.
 With few exceptions those items of food and grain could and should have been produced on home acres at one-third to one-half what the sup ply merchant charges for them.
 "Cotton is the one best money crop for the South, and probably always will be. The time of war prices is over and the problem from now on is to lower cost of production and at the same time afford the cotton grower fair profit
 Cost of making cotton is primarily the cost of food, grain and forage for the farmer, his family, his labor CTS or tenants, and his work stock. Cutting food, grain and forage costs by home production will reduce cot ton costs from one-third to one-half.
 Plant for an abundance of food, grain and forage, thus cutting down store bills, and the lower prices for cotton will not hurt so much. We can. not, with European countries so thor. oughly disorganized, reasonably expect high prices for cotton for several years and we must make cotton at lower cost, or else quit cotton growing.
 Most of us cannot quit cotton, hence the absolute necessity of food, grain and forage planting in 1921- the making on home acres of every pound of food and grain needed to see us through.
 "In this food production program, take the home vegetable garden seri- ously. Give the home garden square deal and it will surprise you in the amount of healthful food produced. It takes the least ground. can be plant ed the earliest, brings quick returns and if kept replanted and worked will stay by you all the season through"

BILIOUS CHILDREN
Black-Draught, Long in Successful Use, Praised by an Arkansas Mother, "Soon Does
 It's Work.'

MarmaduEc, Ark.-Speaking of Thedford's $ Biackpraught, which from long use in her household has become regarded as "the family medicine" Mrs. Mary E. Hill, of Route l, this place, says:
 When the children get bilious, give them a couple of good doses, and when we have sour stomach, headache, or any liver or stomach trouble, we use Black-Draught. It is an easy laXa- tive, and soon does the work. I cer- tainly think 1t is one of the best rem edies made"
 Black-Draught acts on the jaded liver, gently, but positively, and helps it in it's important function of throw ing out waste materials and poisons from the system.
 In thousands of households Black Draught is kept handy for immediate use in time of need Prompt treatment often is half the battle, and will often prevent slight ills from developing in. to serious troubles.
 It's well-established merit, during more than 70 years of successful use, should convince you of the helpful effects obtainable by taking Black Draught for liver and stomach dis orders. Get a package today, and keep 1t in your house. See that the package bears the words. "Thedford's Black-Draught." NC-141

I'm glad we didn't stay long, as l couldn't stand 1t, and you know when l can't stand anything there are few that can. l am sorry for these refugees, but we can't help any. They don't want money though they would sell their lives for some clothes and food. They don't stop praising the Americans.
 "Trebizonde was another Arme- nian town, but 1t was completely wiped out by the Turks, who are now in control of it. The Turks massacrcd all the Armenians over fifteen years Q age and kept all under that age to bring them up as Turks. The city looked as If 1t was shot to pieces. Samsoun Is the same as Treb- Zonde, so you can see what kind of country we are travelling through. l am sure glad that we are leaving Russia and Armenia because am sick of what have seen. think that these tourists who are trying to see ~avlshed Armenia will be sorry they ever came over. These relief workers are nearly dead from work They are the people who can tell the U. & something about this country"
