stock farms in the State. Already sev
eral carloads of cattle from the West
ern markets have been shipped to
Chatham county for the farm. Chat
ham Is one of the best grain and grass
growing counties in the State and there
Is no reason why stock ralslug should
not be one of the chief industries of the

made a success la Lee county if our

raising more grass, clover and small
grain.

Stamps. Mr. Henry Page, State Food
Adminletrator, who spoke at Jonesboro
4ast Saaturday, puts the citizen who re
fuses to help his government at a time
like this, In the slacker class. He
predloted that before the war ended

the government. Tf the government

prepared blanks on which the crop

Lee County Oversubscribes for
the Third Liberty Loan.
Lee county went “Over the Top” in
the third Liberty l^oan drive several
days before the time for selling the
bonds expired and we now have a good
percent of subscriptions over and above
the allotted amount. It makes every
citizen a little prouder of this good
county because the people have respond
ed so nobly t^ the needs of our govern
ment. The boys who are ready to
make tho great sacrifice now, will be
encouraged to learn that the people
at home are backing them up with
tnelr money and other resources. Our
boys in the camps will be a little bit
more eager to get at the Huns because
Lee county has done her part. The
credit for this result is due to every
person who invested in a Liberty Bond
and they should hold theli* heads a
lltt e higher because they have done
th'el “bit.” The Chairman of the Lib
erty Loan Bond Committee, Mr. S. P.
Hatch, has been untiring in his efforts
to put this across, and all his co-work
ers have put this campaign above their
own business interests. The whole
county appreciates the magnificent
work of Rev. H. EJ. Spence, who left
his work and came back to Lee oounty,
for a week, to apeak, talk and solicit
loans or anything that, would help tc
Pht Lee oounty “over the top,” and she
went Over. Lee county has again done
herself proud.

Those Who Hold Wheat to Be
Reported.
Food Administrator Henry A. Pape
has been requested by the national
food administration to arrange for the
seizure of wheat which remains in the
hands of producers after they have had
ample opportunity to market it to their
best advantage. This is a step further
than that recently taken by Mr, Page,
when he requested the farmers through
the press of the State to dispose of
their wheat by May 1 so that the flour
may get into the channels of trade and
be distributed as equitably as possible.
Mr. Page has sent out a letter to all
the roller mills of the State urging
them to use their influence with the
farmers to market their wheat during
the next two or three weeks and to
send to the food administrator at Ral
eigh, on May 1, the names and ad
dresses of every farmer in the mill
community who, there Is reason to be
lieve, is holding on hand a surplus of
wheat above what his household and
tenants will require before the Dext
harvest.
In his letter Mr, Page further adds:
“On account of the desirability of
having all wheqt in the hands of farm
ers reach the mills and the channels
of trade immediately, I hereby grant
you an exception to the rule which for
bids you storing more than 3 days’
supply of wheat, provided that you
keep this offioe constantly Informed as
to the quantity df^wheat you have on
band and the relationship of your
orders for flour to your supply of
wheat. A little later, in order to se
cure an equitable distribution of flour,
it is going to be necessary to direct
shipments from mills into territories
which they have possibly not supplied
heretofore.”

Quite a number of people think that a public ser
vice company like this has “secrets” of its own
which it will not divulge. The time for such an
attitude is now past,
We propose from time to time to explain the dif
ent phases of our business in as simple a man

aisunderstandings will be eliminated,
We are trying to run our business along business
aes with two objects in view, namely, “Service at

'We hope that our customers will be sufficiently
interested to follow up these talks and through

▲ man of fifty-two years has had
what he calls chronic indlgeBton for
fifteen or more years. In that time he
has consulted some famous internists,
specialists and many general practi
tioners In different cities. Various ex
planations of his trouble have been of
fared, and various lines of treatment
employed, most of them being more or
leas helpful for a brief time, and near
ly all of them being at least scientific.
He la a man of considerable horse
tense, and he does not readily absorb
peeudo-acience. However, he still has
bis indigestion.
Queried and cross-examined he
glrec the following history, which Is
not at all ucnusual: Twenty-five years

Right years Ago tile Waisermann tes

Tears ago a good physician offered a
I Wankly doubtful opinion that locomo
tor ataxia was developing; this opinion
waa probably Influenced by knowledge
of the history. But the man shows no
symptom suggestive of locomotor
ataxia at present, that may be due to
the thorough anti-syphllitlr treatment
be was given through several years.
We all know that It takes at least
three years to conquer syphilis.
One year ago he had an X-ray nega
tive, or several negatives of the abdom

monstrated. Now, this condition does
not necessarily cause symptoms; soma

pronounced astigmatism without suf
fering any unpleasant effect, while
others must hare oarefully fitted
glasses for slight errors of refraction.
Some people hare floating kidney and
are qulto unaware of any disturbance
of health; others complain of muon
suffering from a loose kidney. As a
matter of fact this man's right kidney
was floating, though the X-ray pie
ces failed to show It.
The doctor who suggested the X-ray
pictures now ordered an abdominal
supporter. The patient wore it for
aearly a year, hut continued to suffer

luge quantities of gas, dragging pain
ind soreness about the flanks, tender

Discouraged, he tried still another
loctor. Ho was now advised to ae
mme the knee-chest position for a

position the patient gets down on all

but keeps the hips high, with thighs

ward the diaphragm. Then he was
urged to He down for half an hour or
more on an inclined couch or bed with
hips several Inches higher than should
He was further taught how to stand
erect, and advised to "brace himself’
every hour by the clock, no matter
what he might be doing or where he
might be.

I Questions and Answers.
Acid Fruits and Rheumatlar.
A. F. it.—Should one with chronic
rheumatism Indulge In such things as
lemons, tomatoes, grapefruit and the
like? Are not such fruits full of acid?
Answer: One should, whether he hae
rheumatiz or not. In the first place, no
ioint disease la mused by arid In th®
lood; in the second place, all fruit no,I«1b
circulate as alkaline salte, thus tending:
to increase the nlkalinltly In the blood.
