vent a threatened shortage in labor
If 1t will take immediate action. in
the opinion OF S. l.. Gill, general
manager OF the Lower Rio Grande
Valley, Inc.
MI. Gill spoke to farmers at a
meeting here, and asked them to
give him an accurate idea OF the
number of laborerS they will need
to harvest potatoes and other spring
crops.
He also asked the farmers OF other
sections OF the Valley to make out
a list.
He suggested to the farmers that
they place advertisements in Span
iSh language newspapers, particu-
larly in San Antonio, as there are
many Mexicans there who might be
brought to the Valley.
Willacy county is o bringing
400 laborers from Carlo Springs.
Mr.. Gill explained in talking TO the
farmers here.
He said that from all indications
there will be a considerable short
age of labor in the Valley for the
spring deal unless some more Ia
borers are brought into the Valley.
A large number will be needed 10

has since been indicted by a fed
eral grand Jury with reference to
matters pertaining to the election.
Although the p. F. Golfers and
Son Publishing company at first
announced it was ready to go to
"bat" and prove the truth OF It's
assertions, II has since had all
service upon 1t quashed. The p.
r. Golfers and Son Distributing
corporation, a Texas concern readily
accepted service.

Argotane Brings
Relief Medical

when three doctors failed TO give

about given up hope OF obtaining
relief. But after I had been taking
Argotane only a short time. I had
improved to such an extent that 1t

WORKOUT when I got UP in the
morning. and when / stopped over,
I turned blind as I arose.
"Argotane had created such a
sensation ell over the country that
I finally started the treatment my
self, a sort Of last grasp at my fail
ing health. And this medicine GER
tainly did the work for me. After
] had taken one and q half bottles
Of Argotane. my stomach was in a
fine condition. I had no more head
aches. my gallstones had disap-
peared, and now I can stoop over
and rise up without a bit Of dis

ANY preparation that can do
this when medical attention fails is
worth any mans recommendation.

recommending 1t and I am glad to
give this statement"
