North Carolina is now the leading peanut State as well as the leading tobacco .State in the Union, and Mar * tin County is one of the 19 big pro ducing counties in the Virginia belt. The peanut is the best crop the farm er has to pay debts, taxes, and doc tors. It does not cost much to pro duce. The important Jljing to the farmer in connection with the peanut is the price. And that is the ques tion that interests the farmer at this time. So many strange things have hap pened in the peanut trude during re cent years that it makes even the wisest fellows guess what the future j will show Last year, with a very small crop, peanut* (old at reasonably fair pricey The conditions were so favorable that] many speculators stocked up pretty well, hoping to unload-in the summer and full at a good profit. That was the most natural thing that could reasoned out. Yet with the small crop protected by a 4-cent tariff on shelled peanuts, and a cents on peanuts in the hull, farmer's stock peanuts steadily went down from $1 to $2 a bag, and could hardly be sold at any price. A recent explanation of the cause has been given by a man who knows peanuts. He says that the large pea nut dealers have imported heavily— more than a million and a half bags of Orientul peanuts, which sell for a bout 2. cents a pound less than the American nuts, and that they have mixed the heavy imports with the small American crop and sold them all as American peanuts. By this 1 process of deception they have broken down half of the tariff wall which j protects the Martin County peanut farmer. This deception has almost ruined the ' small peanut cleaner and has para- j Ivzed quite a large number of peanut ■ speculators, because they did not im- 1 1-ort they did not gain by the decep- ! tion. Tty# home farmers' should be pro tected from this deception by brand ing the foreign-grown product so that the trade would know what it buys. China raises more than twice as many peanuts per acre* as ** do; j tbey look eves better than «mrs; yet . they are very inferior in artual quali- ' ty. Not only should the peanut grower be protected against sufh 1 1 practices, but the users of peanut? und the various products should How Doctors Treat Colds and the Flu To break up a cold overnight or Jf abort an attack of grippe, in- Ofiinii and druggists are now recom ■esnding Calotabs, the purified and refined calomel compound tablet that •fraa yon the effects of calomel and ■alts combined, without the unpleas ant affect* of either.

R Bouknlght, of this place, gave the following account of his use ot Thedford's Black-Draucht. "Just after I married I had indi gestion. Working out, I got in the habit of eating fast, for which I soon paid by having s tight, bloated feeling after meals. This made me very uncomfortable. I would feel stupid and drowsy, didn't feel like working. I was told It was Indi gestion. Some one recommended Black-Draugbt aad I took It after meals. I soon could sat anything any time. "1 use it for colds and bilious ness and it will knock out a cold and carry away the bile better and quicker than any liver medicine I have ever found." Bating too fast, too much, or faulty chewing of your food, often causes discomfort after meals. A pinch of Black-Draught, washed down with a swallow of water, will help to bring prompt relief. Bloat ed sensations, eructations, bad breath and other common symptoms of Indigestion have disappeared after Black-Draught has been taken for several days.
