FOREST FIRES Reports from the Toxaway section bring the information that forest fires are raging over a large territory in the Hogback mountains. Much dam age is being done to timber it is stated and thousands of feet of valu able hardwood are being destroyed. It is thought that the fire was started from small fires set for the puriK>se of “burning off” a mountain pasture. This is a practice that originated many years ago when this region was very thickly timbered and is still per sisted in by those who will not recog nize the danger of using this method of clearing off the mountain ranges since they are no longer thickly wood ed and much more thickly populated that was the case some time ago. Why Tafce Caiomei? Dr. Thacher’s Liver & Blood Ssrrup win do all that calomel will do and without the “after effects.” Tears ago, when were bilious. when the liver got lazy and failed to dc Its work or the ^tcnsach was out oi condition, cclorael was the standby. By and by the users of calomel found that the “after cllects’* of taking the drug were as bad and more often worse than the ailmcali for which i6 was taken. Dr. Thacher, ia seeking a medicine to take the place of calomel—one that would do all the good that] calome'i would do, and yet leave none of its evil effects perfected DrcThacher’s liver £ Blood Syrup. Tills was in 1852, and each year since lias added to the confi dence of those who have used it. Miss Susie Brewer, of Chattanooga, Tenn., tried calomel. »She \rss sufi’er- ing with a very serious cold and grippe and had no appetite v/hatever. After the calomel foiied she tried Dr. Thacli- er’s Liver &, Blood Sjrup. She felt better after taking tlirce and sac soon got erilireij v;ell. “i ll’ink Dr. Thacher’s Live/and Blood ^'vrup is £ wonderful medieJue,” she said, “iuid I am very thankful I tried it.” For nearly three quarters of a century this sterlin" prcpr.ratioii has been An “old staml-by” in thousands of homes in treating rheumatism, dyspepsia, in- digeslioa and other stomach and livci complaiii ts. 11 is a poVirerful tonic and blood purifier and can be used with the utmost confidsneo, j* Writo Tliachcr .^leCsiciiiaCo., Chtv 1 anooga, Tenn. for a, ccjiy of “Thr.eiiet’i.

Conn. Resointioiis Adopted At COBTO^B Heaiis Mcdi For Cotton Fanners. The South is confronted with a dis aster unless the crop of 1919 he. re duced and the balance of the crop of 191S be protected and held until mar ket conditions justify its sale To en able all people jn the South interested, in cotton, and nearly all are. to adopt a direct and intelligent method of meeting the situation, this Convention earnestly recommends that the fol lowing plan be adopted: (1) That the crop of 1919 be re duced at least 33 1-3 per cent in acre age, and that the fertilizer on the two- third area be not increased; but this does not apply to any farm of less than ^ve acres to the horse: Provid ed, that in carrying out this recom mendation the following schedule of reduction shall be observed: Any man planting five acres or less to the horse to make no reduction; 6-7 acres, reduce one acre to the horse; 8-9 acres, reduce two acres to the horse; 10-11-12-13 acres, reduce three acres; 14, reduce four acres; 15-16, reduce five acres; 17-18, reduce six acres. Under no circumstances will any farmer plant more than 12 acres to the horse. (2) That on all the cotton land left out and on the balance of the farm, ample supplies of food, feed and oth er crops be planted. (3) We believe that the existing sti- uation justifies the holding of every bale of cotton now in the hands of our Southern people, and we urge our farmers not to sell the balance of the present crop for less than thirty cents per pound, basis middling. (4) That to carry out this purpose we call upon the bankers and busi ness men of the State for their hearty co-operation. (5) We recommend that every own er of cotton immediately put his cot ton under shelter, or in a warehouse, and will not permit it to leave the warehouse until the owner shall so specify. (G) We earnestly warn the farmer that if he buys high-priced fertilizer, and a large acreage of cotton is made, he must pay next fall with cheap cot ton for the high-priced fertilizer and other supplies. (7) We recommend to the farmer that he leave uncultivated in cotton every acrc that he cannot reasonably expect to make enough cotton to jneld a profit at reasonable prices. We do not believe that an acre that prodnoes less than two-thirds of a bale will yield a profit to the grower, and every suc“^. acre should not be planted in cotton. (8) For tie purpose of cecuring the un’ted co-operation of all financial in terests. and to pnt this plan into ef fect. the merchants, bankers, lar.d- lord.s. fertllfser dealers and other business men are asked to extend credit and to finance farming on the basis of a safe pro.s^ram. including full production of food and feed, rather than the production of cotton alone. (9) It is recognized that-the world peed for cotton when conditions be come anything anriroaching nor’i’nl w’ll, without doul’t. be exceedingly ereat, and it is therefore important that those who can hold their cotton flgaio'^t that time, and that in the nieant.iine the sitnnt.'cn be held in hand by control of future production. (10) We recommend that the pres ent Ponrrress of the TTnitr’cl States en act the Smith b-;il {"^vering the char acter. of cotton dsl’vcraole upon cot ton exchange's. (11) We reeommev.cl that the lesri?- lature pass an adoouite warehouse bill for the Stp.te of North Carolina. (12) Wo recommend that the tax- basing (lay for individual taxpayers be made .Tune 1st. fl3) We recommend that a commit tee of seven persons representing the farming and business interests of the State be named by the governor to inaugurate a State-wide campaign to effect the purposes set forth, such committee to meet immediately, and to have full authority to devise ways and means to carry out the provisions of these recommendations. This committee is authorized to raise money, employ clerical assist ance, and to put on an intensive cam paign and to do any and all things necessary to effect the purposes of this meeting. (14) This organization shall be known as The North Carolina Cot'ion Association, and every person present is asked to enroll as a member before leaving. The following committee was ap pointed by the governor: C. D. Or- rell, Moncure, chairman.; W. G. Clark, Tarboro, S. H. Hobbs, Clinton; E. B. Crow, Raleigh; J. Z. Green, Marsh- ville; G. N. Newsome, Goldsboro; O. L. Clark, Clarkton. The committee decided that the as sessment on farmers should be twen ty cents per bale for all cotton on hand and ten cents per acre for cot- . ton planted in 1919, which would en title him t<) membership in the North I Carolina Cotton Association. Fifty I per cent <)(f the funds raised are to be j forwarded by the locfiJ treasurer to the cent vs 1 organization: Dr. B. W. Kilg'- ^ .i-reasiirer, Raleigb, N. C.
