Eat slowly, masticate your food
thoroughly abstain from meat
for a few days and in most cases
the sour stomach will disappear.
If it does not, take one of Cham
berlain's Tablets immediate af

likely to cause sour stomach and
you may find it best to cut them

Federal Csurt Busy with Liqusr Cases.
The term of the Federal court

LCoursesin-agriculture for farm
ers that are to start on October
.30 at the State Colleger RaJiegh,
add continue ior sixteen' weekd.
These courses have been especi
ally designed to give those who
come to the College for this
short practical instruction, infor
mation along different lines of
farming practiced in the State
that may be but into use on the
home farm by those who come,
The early farming in North
Carolina under pioneer condi
tions of society was a compara
tively simple operation, but in
this djty and time as farming
has become more complex and
commercial enterprise and when
crops are raised on a large scale
for competition in world markets
the yrell informed and alert farm
er, other things being equal, is
the one who is going to make the
most out of hj farming opera
tions. The courses, as arranged
will no doubt greatly aid those
taking them to become more
modern and business like in
their farming operations than
tney could otherwise possibly
have been.
