Folger, Important for Women A weak, run-down condition often gives a foothold to functional dysmenorrhea, causing much peri odical distress from headaches, nervousness, cramp-like pain for women. CAEDUI so often helps in aueh cases, for it sharpens appe tite, boosts flow of gastric juices; so improves digestion, helps build physical resistance. CARDUI, tak en a few days before and during "the time," is another way to help periodic distress.. Used 50 years. We Proudly Announce A MIRACLE!

FINNISH PREMIER LAUDS RED CROSS Washington Risto Ryti, Fin nish Prime Minister, cabled thanks to the American Red Cross for war relief supplies—in cluding 18 tons of anaesthetics— which have been moving into Finland since the outbreak of hostilities. Chairman Norman H. Davis, in announcing the Finnish Prime Minister's cable, stated that Fin nish relief supplies from the American Red Cross are moving periodically out of New York in answer to urgent requests from the Finnish Red Cross. As an emergency measure, the first medical supplies needed by the small northern nation were pur chased in Ijondon and transport ed by plane to Helsinki, it was explained. Supplies now en route to Hel sinki, Mr. Davis said, include ten motor ambulances, 25 hospital tents with a capacity of 50 pa tients each, and large quantities of medical supplies and clothing. In addition, $30,000 worth of mis cellaneous drugs and 20,000 blan kets are being readied for ship ment in New York, he said. MANY REQUESTS FOR TERRACING New Equipment Will Enable County to Provide a Bet ter Service PREVENTS SOIL WASTE The Surry county farm agent's office has had more requests for terracing this year than ever be fore during the time Jie has been connected with farm work in the county, A. P. Cobb, assistant county farm agent, has stated. Already enough farms have been secured to keep all terracing machinery in the county busy for 12 months. The terracing work, scheduled to start last fall, was delayed be cause of the late arrival of new terracing equipment, which was not delivered until December. Due to bad weather, work could not be done. The terracing work will begin just as soon as the weather per mits, Mr. Cobb said. A new trac tor and a caterpillar terracer have been purchased, and old equipment, which has been doing all the work in the past, is avail able. Both of these units will be operated full time when work is begun. One of the reasons so much in terest is being shown in terracing this year is because farmers real ize it prevents soil erosion, the assistant county agent said. An other reason is that there will be more farmers participating in the soil conservation program than ever before due to the new tobacco sign-up that has gone into effect for 1940. /».
