COLDS and grip are hard on the
kidneys. When the kidneys slow
up, impurities remain in the blood
and are apt to make one tired and
achy with headaches, dizziness and
often nagging backache. A common
warning is scanty or burning secretions.
Doan's Pills, a stimulant diuretic,

impurities. Are endorsed by users

»
i Ellenboro, Feb. 13. —Twelve agri
cultural projects, conducted by ten
, individuals living in the vicinity of
Ellenboro who attended the evening
■ lessons in agriculture given at the
Ellenboro school last winter by the
local agricultural teacher, yielded a
'total of $7,565.77 worth of products
; giving the producers a profit of $2,-
588.41. The following have been
i built as a result of the course: One
j 5,000 bushel sweet potato storage
house, five model brooder houses with
•
, the same number of laying houses
| for their flocks.
i The sweet potato storage house in
which 4,000 bushels of sweet pota
toes were stored last fall is proving
to be a real asset to the community.
; In addition to producing better po
j tatoes for home consumption it is
providing for a spring pay day for
those who are now selling potatoes
' from the house.
Despite the fact that two broiler
projects failed to return a profit
' still poultry has been profitable and
: is giving local growers an increas
! ing and constant income.
I Another coii'rse will be offered to
farmers a.uain this year. Meetings on

OUTLOOK FOR COTTON
BETTER THAN 1927
Raleigh, Feb. 13. —If the acreage
planted to cotton in the
United States is not increased over
ten per cent this season, the price
outlook is favorable.
This is the opinion of Dr. G. W.
Forster, head of the department of
agricultural economics at State Col
lege, who has made a study of the
situation with governmental authori
ties at Washington in planning the
farm outlook for 1928 in late Janu
ary. He states that the production
of 12,789,000 bales last season was
a relatively small crop and while
the carry-over of 7,500,000 bales is
rather large, it is not excessive in
view of the small crop. Consumption
this year will be in excess of 15,000,-
000 bales according to present indi
cations. This will make the carry
over on July 31, 1928 amount to
about five million bales only.
Dr. Forster states that an increase
in acreage of ten percent this seas
on with the normal yield of the past
five years, will give the South a
crop of about 14,000,000 The
foreign and domestic demand will
not be materially different from last
season though better conditions are
anticipated iu France and Italy. He
finds that through the period from
1920 to 1926, there has been an
increased demand for cotton so as
to cause an increased price of about |
one cent a pound each year over th 3 j
previous season.
Farmers should keep in mind, how
ever, that there are some areas where
growers will find it hard to get a i
substitute crop for cotton and this
may lead to greater increases in
acreage; in West Texas and Okla
homa there are still millions of acres j
of potential cotton land; credit is'
easy in most of the cotton states and |
the agitation for farm relief has led i
to the belief that Congress may en- i
act legislation to stabilize prices at j
a higher level than that which would i
be caused by a free play of supply
and demand. This may encourage
heavier plantings in some sections.
In North Carolina, the high prices
for peanuts and tobacco may check
any tendency to increase the* acreage
in those counties where these two
crops ave grown.
If the Irish potato acreage is in
creased this year, the prospects foi
a v good price will go a glimmering,
says statisticians of State College
and the United States Department of
Agriculture.
