GAINS TWENTY POUNDS IN five WEEKS -
ORDERED BY PHYSICIAN TO TAN TONIC
In Answer To Our Direct Question: III Beck offender
sOnville,-Says He Gained Twenty Pound In
Five Weeks While Taking Garrens Tone

Anybody can ask a question but it
takes man of experience and know
ledge to answer them. Thousands of
questions are now being asked daily
about Garren's Tonic, and we consider
this gentleman's statement of suffi-
cient value to answer hundreds of the
queries coming to us from this sec
ton. This answer is the result of
just such an experience. When we
were asked the question "What is
Garrens Tonic good for?" we turned
to Mr.. j. II. Beck of Hendersonville,
North Carolina, for the answer. Mr..
Beck has taken Garren's Tonic and
through this experience, we consider
him a man of knowledge regarding
the value of Garrcn's Tonic to the sys-
tenn. Read what he says and take it
as personal information.
an reply to your question as to the
result obtained by me from the use of
Garren's Tonic, l can cheerfully state
that 1T did me more good than any
medicine that have ever used Some

The chief commercial varieties in

Tom Watson, Shipments usually be-
gin July 1 and end about Septemb .r
l. The 1920 shipping season was at
its height from July 20 to July 80.
On July 20, 1920, 800 cars We're ship
ped.
When the South Carolina movement
of watermelons is on, sharp competi-
ton is to be expected from Georgia.
Some shipments are. also moving at
that time from Alabama and North
Carolina, and a few from Florida.
though the Florida movement becomes
comparatively unimportant after
July 15.
The majority of melon shipments
from South Carolina go to Eastern
markets, though many cars are sold
in Southern territory throughout the
shipping season, for almost every
town of any size handles one or more
cars of watermelons.
For the advance instruction of those
planting watermelons commercially it
might be said that watermelons are
usually loaded in ventilated box cars
a or S layers high depending on the
size of the melons. When average 18
pounds, 1900 to 1850 are usually load
ed to a car; when they average 25
pounds or more, 900 to 1900 are U.s.
ually loaded to a car. All cars should
be clean and beddcd with dry pine
needles or grain straw. Shavings
and sawdust can be used if absolutely
dry but are not the most desirable
bedding.

GARDEN NOTES

Clemson College, April 4.--Cclery
seed may be sown as late as the end
of the first week in April. TO en-
courage rapid growth the plants
should be watered frequently during
drought. The Giant Paschal and
Winter Queen are two of the best
varieties. The Golden Self -Blanching
is the best variety to use if you ex-
pect to bleach the plants by means of
boards, tile, or paper.
In order to have nice, hardhcaded
lettuce the plants should be thinncd
so as to stand not less than 8 to ~
inches apart in the rows. When al
lowed to grow thick the plants will
not head satisfactorily. The Improv-
ca Hanson is one of the best varieties
for planting at this season.
IN order to have a supply of sal

ing the winter months it is ncces-
sary to plant the seed during late
March or early April. Alter the
plants are up to a good stand thin
them out to one to two inches apart
in the row. The Mammoth Sandwich
Island is the best variety of satisfy
for the South.
Inc carrot is most valuable Vege-

IRISH TROUBLES
MAY Be ON THE WANE
Prospects for Early Peace Gain
Momentum.
MAY ARRANGE TRUCE
Troubles Spreading to Ulster and
Bringing Political Hazards.

Dublin, April (By the Associated
Press.) The opinion was expressed
today by competent observers that
the Irish situation had undergone
considerable change for the better
since st. Patrick's day. A month ago
Dublin deridcd the peace prophets,
but today predictions that there soon
will be settlement of the con-
trovcrsy are universal. Lloyds de-
clined to accept bets offered during
the week that peace would be
brought about before August.
Outwardly conditions have not i'm
proved. There has been no cessation
of warfare in any part of the dis
turbed districts, and the trouble is
spreading to VI lister.
Factors serving to stimulate the
optimistic view of the situation are
the frank admission of Premier Lloyd
George Of the governments failure
to solve the Irish problem; the ap-
pointment of Il Roman Catholic vice
roy; Eamonn De Nalcra's latest pro-
nounccmcnts, which are interpreted
as showing the willingness of the
Sim Fcn for what is deemed rca-
Sonablc compromise; England's inter
nal troubles, which are declared to
be intensified by the coal strike; the
Reputation of the partition act by
southern Ireland; the admitted DIFF
ticulty of establishing the Ulster par
Lament; the significance attached in
ireland to the report Of the Ameri-
can committee of 100; President
Harding's reported Endorsement of
the American relief committees cam
paign and a rumor that United States
Senator Kenyon is coming to Ireland
as President Harding's representa-
tive to make an investigation.
Government circles do not conceal
their anxiety over the prospect that
the, Sim Fein will sweep southern
Ireland and win an Overwhelming
majority Of the seats in the south
crn parliament. With the National
ists and Sim Fcincrs cooperating in
the north, the task of establishing
the Ulster parliament is recognized
as traught with political hazards.
Many persons continue to express the
belief that the government will aban-
don ITS attempt to establish the par
lament and will cndcavor to arrange
a truce before the date of the cleo
tions.
1t is confidently asserted here that
the Sim Fem would be willing to
negotiate peace on the basis of a
status of full dominion A rumor
mat the Dali Eircann has appointed a
committee to negotiate with former
enemy countries is denied.

6. The delinting of seed where
convenient. Delinting is especially
valuable when conditions are un-
favorable for seed termination 1t
hastens termination from two to
eight days depending on soil and
can be more evenly planted, and it
requires fewer seed to plant an acre.
Below are directions for delnting
seed with sulphuric acid
Delinting Cotton Seed
Material Needed. Concentrated
sulphurlc. acid about 8 pounds for
each bushel of seed. Three wooden
or earthen tubs, one of which should
have number of small holes in the
center of the bottom with a copper
wire screen over them to prevent
the seed from passing through. A
large glass or earthen funnel with a
screen may be used instead. Plenty
of water.
Directions for treating seed. Place
seed in tub "a" which has no holes
in bottom and cover with acid five to
ten minutes. Stir seed constantly
with a wooden stick until lint is re-
moved. Next pour seed and acid in

harvested soon after frost and stored
in the barn or cellar where they will
keep perfectly until mid-winter.
