full of energy, never has headache nor

and never miss chance to praise it.
Dreco acts on the liver in smooth,
gentle manner gradually working off the
excess bile day by day. It is neither
strong nor harsh and does not excite the
muscles of the bowels as strong cathar-
tics do. It tones up the digestive organs
and relieves gas on the stomach, putssan
end to constipation, increases the appe-
tite, gives strength to weak kidneys, re
stores tired nerves and induces sound

and system cleanser.

FORT FOR MOSQUITOES
State Board of Health Physician

Albany

ALBANY, July 2O.-"One diff
ficulty in fighting mosquitoes" re-
marked DR.. M. A. Fort, of the
State Board of Health, who abs
been dong malaria work around
Albany this week, is that many of
those who need protection most
are excluded from the ordinary
methods. The houses at turpen-
tine camps, sawmills, and on many
plantations are open and unceiled,
cannot be screened and are located
in low places near standing water
or swamps. Here the suffering from
mosquitoes is intense, and chills and
fever is prevalent. In spite Of burn
ing leather, feathers, rags, etc,
there is little sleep, and much loss
of time and money from illness.

interior of such houses are spray

this method. Already some plant
ers and house owners are SO inl-
pressed with the results that they
are preparing to buy oresote by the
barrel. 1t costs less than a dollar
for an ordinary house.
1.-THE demonstration in Dough-
erty county was made in a house
occupied by Mary Rush, and be-
longing to Mr.. F. F. Wilder, at
Acree. For those who have such
houses it is worth a trip to AGREE
to talk to the occupant of the
house and see the results.
The objections to the method
are that the walls are stained sort
of dark walnut color, and the
slight smell of cresote remains. The
advantages are that mosquitoes
and malaria are excluded together.
While we have not confirmed it, the
house occupants report that roach
es, fleas bedbugs and probably 9th

some HARD FACLS ABOUT SOFT MONEY
By JOHN 0AKWoOD

to manipulate the base of the cur
rency. They would change it from the
gold standard 10 a f i a money plan
from a gold guarantee to the mere
say-so of the government that a piece
of paper was worth a dollar The
farmer wouldn't be watching the
money-politicians. He would be too
busy raising things. At the end Of
the year he has his thousand dollars.
He takes them to the landowner and
says, IN buy your land now-here'5
a thousand dollars"
But the landowner would say, THAT
is paper money-my lapd is worth
one thousand dollars gold-the gov
eminent has printed so much paper
money folks haven't much confidence
in it, But | am willing to take a
chance if you will give me a dollar
and a quarter in paper money for
each gold dollars value of my land
in other words, I'll give you my land
for $3.50 dollars paper"
Soft money would be only another
way for the money politicians to hand
the farmer the same dirty deal as the
basket manipulation. In the first case
the farmer unknowingly gave a bushel
and a quarter Of his product, and in
the second case he would have to give
a dollar and a quarter of his money,
for a dollars value in return.
In Germany they have carried the
manipulation of the mark so far
we'll, it seems hardly believable, but
if they did the same thing to the dol
lar, it would take over ten million in
paper money to buy that land. The
primary producer can raise his prices,
but not fast enough to equalize this
drop in the gold value of unsound
money. That is where the catch
comes in.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1923-07-20

When a farmer takes his product
to market and sells it for, say, dol
lar a bushel, he is dependent upon the
honesty of two measurcs-the dollar
and the bushel.
The other day crossroads store
keeper got sent to Jail for manipu
lating a trick bushel basket with a
false bottom that would slide up and
down in a way that was grand, gloomy
and mysterious. When using it to
measure stuff he bought from farm
err, he'd secretly shove the bottom
down until it held at least bushel
and a quarter, but he would only
credit him with a bushel. The buying
power of the farmers product was
thereby deprecated by about twenty
per cent.
Finally the farmers thereabouts got
wise to the fact that the only way
they could get what was coming to
them was to enforce a reliable stand
ard of measurement. So they put a
good stiff Jail penalty on using a
fake measure, laid for that store
keeper with the trick basket and sent
him to prison,
Politicians in Europe have been
manipulating the other measurable
money measure-in much the same
way. Some of them in America want
to tamper likewise with the dollar
Here is about the way it would work
out Suppose, when the farmer
brought his product to market, the
basket measure was honest enough
and he got dollar bill for each
bushel. He'd take his dollars home
and save them. Perhaps he planned
to buy some land next his own for a
thousand dollars, and figured that in
year or so he coul1 make it.
BuI meanwhile the politicians start

SEVENTH ANNUAL ROLL
CALL, AMERICAN RED CROSS
November 11th to Goth

Everyone knows what the Red Cross
is and what it has done 1t is, there
fore, needless to go into details con-
cerning its purpose. However, some
of US are inclined to think inasmuch
as the war is over there is no need
for an annual call. This is wrong
The Red Cross is needed just as much
today as it was during the war. In
our own country disaster has fol-
lowed disaster, calling for hundreds
of thousands in money and personnel
trained the Red Cross way. Disease
and disaster have no advance agents.
No locality is immune. Adequate
provisions to meet the unexpected is
an investment the value of which
has been attested in hundreds of
communities-both those which were
prepared when disaster struck and
those which wished they had been.
Right here in Crested Butte we have
been threatened with an epidemic
this fall. Merely to be prepared for
such things is sufficient reason for a
roll call in any community. Again,
enduring Red Cross duty to those for
whom the war is not over-the exser-
vice man and his family-calls DUR
ing the last year for millions of dol
lars. This MUST go on. The Red
Cross has never failed; the men and
women who made it have seen . to
that. BUT WE MUST BE PREPARED
To meet these iron duties the Red
Cross must, of course, have reserves
of money. but it must also have that

GUNNISON COUNTY ALL RIGHT
FIRST NATIONAL PROVES II
The Gunnison Empire.

In 1898 Sam p Spencer bought con-
troll of the First National Bank from
Sam Gill. 1t was then Gunnison
county's oldest bank and enjoyed a
monopoly in this city. Its resources
at that time were $751; 900
On November 9TH, at the close of
business, for the first time in it's his
tory they had resources of over One
Million Dollars. The record is the
more remarkable when it is taken
into consideration that we now have
two banks, both strong ones and pros
porous. There has been no boom in
either city or county, Just gradual,
certain growth and development.
The officers of the First National
are to be congratulated on the pro
gress made by their institution, but
it seems to US that the people of the
county are to be also congratulated
on the showing of steady permanent
growth which this record proves.

school work in the fall, and carry it
in creditable manner.
Also, committee will be appoints
ed to look after our Rural School
Exhibit for the coming year. We
wish to improve this school fair" in
many ways, and try to make it
yearly event in the county that will
be looked forward to, by all.
We will have two short talks on
subjects often not included in the
rural school curriculum, but never
theless, having more intimate in
fuence on the life of the child than
the three RS.
Everyone will be expected to be
present. Do try to be on time, SO we
may begin promptly, as we wish to
have a short social hour afterwards.

Mr.. Caldwell started as a profess
sional musician in concert work in
1889 Later he studied in this coun-
try and seven years in Europe. His
instrumental music is rendered on
the "Mando-Lute", an instrument de-
veloped from the old Italian lutte,
His rendition of Venetian and Ha-
waiian music on this instrument is
absolutely unique and new to Ameri-
can audiences.
As a boy on an Iowa farm he be-
gan initiating birds and animals
around him. He has never allowed
himself to get out of practice, but
has constantly added to his reper--
torie. He is considered one of the
finest natural whistlers in the coun-
try, and initiates the call or song OF
each bird as the bird is thrown on
the screen.
Much of his knowledge of natural
history was secured first hand This
made it necessary for Mr.. Caldwell
to sleep many nights in the tree tops
fifty or more feet above the ground
suspended in navy hammock, tc
which he became accustomed during
his two years of service in the
