Grand Jury Reports al! Offices and Buildings in Good Condition. , The strand jury in Superior court completed its work last Thursday and submitted to Judge Shaw the following report: “We, the grand jury for the July term, 1916, of McDowell Su perior court, make the following report: “We have acted upon all bills of indictments sent us by the So licitor for the State, and have re turned the same to the court. “We have visited and examined the office of the Clerk of the Su perior Court and find the office in good condition, the records well and conveniently kept and accord ing to law, as far as we are able to ascertain. We also examined the offices of Register of Deeds, Sheriff and Treasurer and find them all in good condition and well and neatly kept. “We also examined the court house and found it in good condi tion, with many improvements made within the past year, also the sanitary condition much im proved and good. “We visited in a body the coun ty jail and closely examined the same; we found five prisoners—one white and four colored—who say they are well fed and have kind treatment. The jail seems to be well kept and free from vermin. The cages have been painted and new steel wall cots installed recent ly. We found the jail supplied with plenty of water, two bath tubs and three toilets, and the sanitary condition fairy good. “Five of our body visited and examined the home for the aged and infirm and found six inmates— four white and two colored—wb^o say they are well treated and have plenty to eat, with clean bed cloth ing and fairly good furnituse; we find the buildings all in good con dition, the water supply good and healthy and the sanitary condition generally good. The farm is fair ly well cultivated and crops look promising. We find that ashes are being used in the closets and we recommend that lime be used in stead. “H. A.

About one-fourth of the area of the United States is still covered by forests. Crops in Western Carolina. That the wheat crop in Western Carolina is threshing out much better than had been expected and will prove a very good yield of ,fair quality grain is the report made today by Commissioner of Agriculture W. A. Graham, who has been in the western section of the state for the past two weeks, spending a portion of the time on his plantation in Lincoln county. Major Graham says he found that the crop on the uplands and the best drained low lands is quite good, but that the bottom lands that have been submerged several times during the season of growth of the crop is in very poor con dition. Excessive rains hav^ much retarded some of the upland corn on sandy soils where it has turned yellow and giyes promise of only poor yield. The oat crop. Major Graham says, is about the poorest that has been grown in this state with short and sparse straw and poorly de veloped heads. Should Sloan’s Liniment Go Alon£? Of conrse it should! For after a>strenu- ous day when your muscles have been exercised to the limit an application of Sloan’s Liniment will take the soreness and stiffness away and get you in fine shape for the morrow. You should al so use it for a sudden attack of tooth- aohe, stiff neck, backache, stings, bites and the many accidents that are inci dental to a vacation. “We would as soon leave our baggage as go on a vaca tion or camp out without Sloan’s Lini ment.” Writes one vacationist: “We use it for everything from cramps to soothache.” Put a bottle in your bag, be prepared and have no regrets. Prosperity. Asheville Citizen. The cotton mills are now at the very highest point of their pros perity. In this State they are especially prosperous. A new com pany to operate a cotton mill was recently organized at Gastonia. In less than twenty-four hours the total capital of $300,000 was sub- spribed, and more was available but not needed. All the manufac turing industries of the South are doing extremely well. The busi ness depression incident to the breaking out of war in Europe has been cleared away, and the country is more prosperous now than it ever has been.

It isn’t necessary to have a stuffed head, running nose. To cough your head off as it were. All you need do is to use Dr. Bell’s Pine-Tar-Honey. The soothing and healing balsams open the tlogged air passages and in a short time you get relief and start on the road to recovery. Your nose stops running, you cough less and you know you are get ting better. Get a bottle, use as direct ed. Keep what is left as a cough and cold insurance. Taking Bl^ Chances. It is a great risk to travel without a bottle of Chamberlain’s CJolic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, as this prepara tion cannot be obtain^ on the trains or staamships. Attacks of bowel complaint axe often sudden and very severe, and everyone should go prepared for theni. Obtainable everywhere. Agricultural Bill Passed.
