Moone's Emerald Oil besides be.

most pernicious germs and the
poisons caused by them, is also a
marvellous healing agent.
One application for instance stops
the itching OF eczema. and a few
applications causes the eruption to
dry up. scale off and completely
disappear. II is equally as ef.
fective In barber's itch. salt rheum,

People who want to reduce vari-

rid of eczema. ulcers, boils. alb

not hesitate to get a bottle at once.

The Snobs
(Grand Forks Gazette )

There's snobs in every city, from Eholt to Brazil; as objects of our pity, they surely fill the bill. The noise they make when talking, just staVts the old boat rocking; their 'nOsey" gait when walking, would pull the world uphill. E
 They love an occupation where nerve" replaces brain; a stand at ease" vocation, inside where 1t cant rain. With vacant, shock-proof fea- lures, like rows of empty bIeachers, those ignoramus creatures give me an awful pain.
 Their actions quite enthuse us, though not much understood; in kindness they excuse us, for our il-

hterate mood. Their ice-cold glan- ces freezing, their words through whiskers whsezing, sound like a cyclone sneezing a love song through a wood.
 Those misfits of creation, I can't describe by pen; excuse this mild oration and I wont try again. With due deliberation, and modest hesi- tation. it's rank insinuation to say they smell like men.
 Each of us here is given some place on earth to dwell; some spots are just like heaven, while others aren't so swell; but if I had the giv- ing of places to be living, I'd try to be forgiving, and send the snobs

DAIRYING INDUSTRY GROWS
IN POPULARITY

Satisfaction seems to follow the introduce
ton of the dairying industry wherever Alabama
farmers make it a real business in conjunction
with the creameries in their county centers or
those of nearby counties. The success of local
creameries has been well-nigh universal The
business is expanding rapidly and is marked ny
a growing enthusiasm.
news item in The Age-Herald from GAGS
den is fair example of how the business op-
crates in the usual county center where cream
cries are established and the favor it finds
with farmers. The item reads: "Never before
have farmers of Etowah county been so en-
thusiastic over the proposition of dairying.
Hundreds of farmers in Etowah have pur-
chased cream separators and are selling their
the skinned milk to droves of hogs. Hundreds
of dollars being paid to farmers every
month by the creamery here and the cream
cry has ready sale for all its butter"
Besides bringing continuous flow of cash
into the pocket Of the farmer, the dairying
business serves to line up the farmer and the
city man in common interest. That common
interest will create a better understanding,
and out of that will issue an Alabama citizen
ship appreSative of community welfare.
Development of the dairying industry in Ala
bama is among the most important and bene-
fetal movements now going on.

OUR LITTLE PLATFORM

From Life.
For congressman seeking reelection this is
infallble; memorize it.
Prohibiton-If reelected l will work for a
rigid enforcement of the law that will satisfy
the prohibitionists, but will not deprive any
body of plenty to drink.
Bonus-I will work for the payment of
very large cash bonus to ex-soldiers without
increasing taxes or borrowing. I cannot re
veal how this can be done but l shall work
for it.
Taxation-If l am reelected | will strive co
have taxes reduced to the lowest figure
patible with my well-known policy of having
plenty of good government jobs for all deserv-
ing party workers.
Tariff will favor very high low tariff.
This never has been attempted. My tariff pol
icy has the merit of originality.
Foreign Relations-I will stand for intimate
foreign relations for six months of the year
and for isolation for the other six months |
intend to be absolutely fair and impartial in
this important field.
