X that Get at the Canae. S
Thousands of people normally healthv
in every utbi-r reapect, are annoyed with
a persistent hangiDpr-on bronchial coueU
year after year, disturbing their sleep
and makina life dUaKreeable. It's so
neediest there'tf an old home-made
remedy that will end such a cough
easily and quickly.
Get from any druiftrUt "2V ounces of
Pinez" ( f0 cents worth ) , pour it into a
pint bottle and nil the bottle with plain
(tranulated sucar syrup. Begin taking
it at once. Gradually but surely you
will notice the pliU-um thin out and then
disappear altogether, thus ending a
couch that you never thought would end.
It also promptly loosens a dry or tight
couch, stops the troublesome throat
tickle, soothes the irritated membranes
that line the throut and bronchial tubes,
and relief comes almost immediately.
A day's use will usually break up an or
dinary throat or cheat cold, and for
bronchitis, croup, whooping cough and
bronchial asthma there is nothing
better. It tastes pleasant and keeps
perfectly.
Pinex is a most valuable concentrated
compound of genuine Norway pine ex

for throat and chest colds with splendid
results.
To avoid disappointment, ask your
druggist for "2Vi ounces of Finex" with
full directions and don't accept anything
else. A guarantee of absolute satisfac
tion or money promptly refunded goes
with this preparation. Xha Plnex C&.

COST OF FARM IMPLEMENTS
Machines Make Money When In Use
and Are Expensive When Idle
Other Striking Facts.
Many facts which will be Interest
ing to farmers were determined by
the federal department of agriculture
in a recent study of farm machinery
costs. Among the more'strlklng facts
are the following: ,
"Machines make money for you
when they arp, la use; they cost you
money when they stand Idle.
"A , machine makes the greatest
possibu profit for its owner when
it is used continuously la profitable
work till it is worn out. Then it Is
really worn out It does not rot or
rust out.
"The average farm Implement Is
only about half worn out by use
alone. The rest of the wear Is due
to ruat and decay.
"Acres count in the life of a machine
not years."
It was found that the cost per acre
covered Is the real measure of the
value of the service given by an Im
plement and that, on tha average, the
more acres covered per year, the more
profit to the owner.
CRUELTY TO HORSE OR MULE
Cause of 8ore 8houlders Is Badly
Made, Cheap Collars or Collars
That Do Not Fit
No greater cruelty can be inflicted
on a horse or mule than to work him
with a sore shoulder. The causa of
sore shoulder la badly ' made, cheap
oollars or collars that do not fit
U a mule a efficiency Is lowered
even 10 per cent for a month, because
of a sore shoulder, that alone will pay
tne ainerenca between a poor and a
good collar, to say nothing about tha
better feelfng It will give any human
man to see bis mole's shoulders la
good condition. '
Sweat pads are only useful to patch
up a bad collar. They may make a
poor collar, better,, but they, certainly
do not, help a good collar..
A broad, smooth, hard, clean coVttm
well fitted Is the best that can be
done.
'The Spirit That Move,:, "-j-'ains
'-There id much significance in the re
newed earnestness of spirit among ail
the foik.s on oura farms and in the ru
ral homes. This spirit takes several
forms:
f The ideal of service, of co-operation,
of working together, is more active
than ever before.
,r The individual adult, male or female,
is inspired with a fresh ambition to do
more and be more, to farm better and
to live better.
k Even greater is the enthusiasm
4mong tiie younger people. Boys and
girls from 12 to 20, young men and
women from 20 to 3U, are wonaenuny
nthusiastic for improved agriculture
ind farm life. Even the little children
have caught the spirit of zest, as
shown by the work of the children s
Clubs in raising pigs, poultry, fruit,
canning, etc.
To our mind, this spirit, tnis deter
mination, this eagerness in young and
old for better things, for better living.
for better farming, mean even more
to the South than all the wealth which
is pouring into her coffers from the
nroducts of her farms and factories.
For every one knows that all kinds of
manufacturing cotton, iron, steel and
merchandise were never so prosper
oua throughout the South -as at pres
ent. .

POOR PRINT
RAISING ROAD FI NDS
Important Savings Effected by Issu
ing Highway Bonds on Deferred
Serial Retirement Plan.
People of a county intending to raise
funds for highway improvement would
do well to consider the advantages to
them of the deferred serial plan over
the ordinary sinking fund plan of re
tiring long-term bonds. Under tho
serial plan, a certain amount of bond
is reM -i every year and the bonds so
retireu cease to be an interest charge
on the community. Under the sinking
fund plan none of the bonds is retira
ble until the end of a definite period,
and the entire sum raised bears inter
est for the entire life of the bond. The
county, therefore, pays interest on the
money so borrowed and in addition sets
aside each year as a sinking fund an
amount sufficient to retire all the
bonds when they become due. The
sinking fund is deposited with banks
and earns some interest. This interest
ordinarily is only 3 per cent, whereas
the county has to pay 5 or 6 per cent
to its bondholders. The serial plan is
a much cheaper method of raising
money for road improvement, even
when the sinking fund earns interest
as high as four per cent, and in the
opinion of the road specialists of the
department should be utilized whenev
er possible to market serial bonds.
In a study of the road bond issues of
several counties, J. E. Pennypacker
and M. O. Eldridge, of the Division of
Road Economics, Office of Public
Roads and Rural Engineering, found
that the serial plan, if it had been
adopted by several counties, would
have saved the taxpayers in one coun
ty $154,269, in another county $80,702,
and in a third county $65,367 over the
other plan with r sinking fund bearing
interest at 3 por cent. With a sink
ing fund earning 4 per cent, the sav
ings would have run as high as $72,288
in one of these counties. These con
clusions appear in the recently pub
lished Department ' Bulletin 393, Eco
nomic Surveys of County Highway,
Improvement.
The following concrete examples are
taken from this bulletin: '
"In Dallas county, Ala'., the bonds
amounted to $350 ,000 r payable in 30
years at 6 per cent. Assuming the
Binkipg. fund io bear per cent inter
est, as set forth in the chapter oh Pal
las county, the total financial burden
to the county for interest and ' the
liquidation of the bonds during the 30
year period will be $745,702.80. An'"
equal amount of bonds at the same
f interest " issued unuer- t!e ,

"Lauderdale county(iss., wncn is- i tu.
sued $500,000 of 5 and 5 Vi per cent .,ft .
bonds, adopted tne aeierrea serial oona
method, with the first payment coming
11 years from the date of isssue and.
the last payment 25 years. If the coun
ty had issued the bonds on the 5-25-year
basis the cost would have been
$906,875, as compared with the cost on
the basis adopted of $972,232, or a dif
ference of $65,367."
Even in the case of a small issue the
advantage of the serial plan is illus
trated in Dinwiddie County, Va. Thig
county issued $105,000 of 5 and 6 per
cent bonds, payable in 30 years, but; ,
the bonds are callable after 20 years.
Assuming that they will be retired at
the end of 25 years on the sinking fund
plan, with interest on sinking fund at
4 per cent.the total cost would be $218
031, whereas if they had adopted the
6-25-year aerial method the cost would
be $201,1000, or a difference of $16,93 U
