White Ware General Insurance Telephone 201 Gastonia, N. C. PLANT A VICTORY GARDEN. The war gardens of 1918 made it eas ier for America to feed her own people and send staple products to Europe. In North Carolina, the year was a very lean one. The cool spring followed by the drought and parching sun played havoc with those vegetables which were plant ed. Only those war gardeners who had the patience to replant, or who were for tunately located, had an abundance of things to eut and some to can. In spite of this, however, reports made to Mrs. Jane S. McKiminoli of the North Caroli na Krtcnsion Service show that the wo men ami children were aide to fill over o 14 millions of cans from the fruits and vegetables which were grown, be sides a large amount which was dried or brined. This shows what gardens will do in food production, even under ad verse circumstances. Following the war gardens of the sum iner, statistics collected by the county home demonstration agents showed that about it.iMMl winter gardens were planted in the state. These have also aided greatly in cutting down th food i.iil. At the present tune finds Mrs. McKimmon, there is no need for a war garden, but Ciere is very great need for a Victory garden. The I'nited States now has more peo ple than ever to aid in feeding. All food material will probably continue to be high in price for several months. Ia fact, Mr. Hoover says that the world' food shortage will last for another seven years. For that reason, the extension workers are apealiiig for a greater gar den crop in IWltt than in 1918, and that more canning and drying for winter use be done. Last year the canning club girls had to leave their gardens and help work in the fields. An example of this was seen in the case of Miss Violet Willonghby, who, though not over lo years of age, with the help of her widowed mother, ran a farm in Pitt count v. She wrote to Mrs. McKimmon that the only reason that she filled only 775 cans from the products of her garden was because the tobacco crop needed so much of her at tion. ' believe," she said, "that 1 could have canned twice as much had I had the time, but I bad to do my canning at night, ami work the tobacco in the day time." It was such spirit as this over the State which enabled America to plant victory gardens in Hi 1 9. To aid the victory garden movement the Extension Service is reprinting Kx tension Circular No. 4.i which gives sug gestions for a year round garden, and copies of this will soon be available to those who make request for them.

THIS HAPPY WOMAN RECOVERERS FROM NERVE STRAIN OF YEARS How women suffer under nervous strain is not realized by the average man. Wo men understand this suffering. The case of Mrs. Kalph McFarlaml, of 1127 Taylor street, Columbia, 8. ('., will interest hundreds of women here. ! "The least noise would startle me,"1 said Mrs. McFarlaml. "At night any; sound would wake ine, and mv nerves wool. I fairly quiver. As I lay awake, even the sound of the wind would make me want to jump out of bed. 1 could not control myself. "My nerves were .jumpy and the least tiling would excite me. I was always under a stiaiu that was wearing on my system and 1 had seen so many women suffer this way that know the serious results it would have. "My nervousness came, in the first place, from stomach trouble, tho doc tors said, but it seemed to me that it was my nerves that affected my stomach. I had what is called a 'nervous stomach.' Many days nothing that I would eat would iigree with me. I would have no appetite and food would lie like a lump in my stomach. Digestion would seem to be paralyzed during these spells. Then I would get sick at my stomach and have terrible headaches. I began to lose strength and weight and my complexion became sallow. TBX "rLU." The following piece of poetry baa bee going the rounds of late and w think yon should read it: ' When your back is broke and your eyes are blurred, And your chin bones knock and your tongue is furred, And your tonsils squeak and your hair gets dry, And you're doggone sure you're going to die. lint you 're skeered you wont and afraid you will, Just drag to Ihw! nud have your chill. And pray the lord to see you through For you've got the "Flu" boy. You 'e got the ' ' Flu. ' ' When your toes curl up and your belt goes fiat, And you're twice as mean as a Thomas cat. Ami life is a long and dismal course, And your food all tastes like a hard boil ed hearse. When your lattice aches and your head 'a a buz. And nothing is as it ever was, Here are my sad regrets to you For you've got the "Flu" boy, You 've got the ' Flu. ' ' What is it like, this Spanish Flu? Ask me, brother, for I've been through, it is a itiiserv out of dispair; It pulls your teeth and curls your hair; It thins your blood and brays yoar bones. And fills your chaw with moans and groans. And sometime, maybe, you'll get wellf Some call it "Fin" boys. Hut I call it ' ' Hell. ' ' "Nothing seemed to reach my case ex cept, maybe, to give me a little tempo rary relief. Now I am relieved and hap py because I was so much impressed about a, new medicine here. 1 read the statements day after day of well known people who were telling of their experi ences with Peplax, the medicine that is composed of Nature remedies designed to meet cast's like mine. This medicine is composed of old remedies we know nil about, like gentian root, rhuliarb root, Jamacia ginger root, dandelion, Spanish licorice, sarsaparilla root and mandrake, the old nerve medicine. "It is designed to act on the whole sy stem and it certainly relieved me (piii k ly. It seemed to stop my nervous stom ach at once and gave me back my nat ural appetite and good digestion. Not one headache or dizzy spell have I had since I began to take Peplax. "After the first few nights my nerves began to be quieted and now I sleep retd fully. You can imagine the strength I am gaining. ' ' Peplax is now being specially introduc ed and recommended at the J. H. Ken nedy Drug Store. Pepla is recommend ed by leading druggists everywhere. If your druggist can not supply you, don't wait, address Kennedy Drug Co., Gastonia. LONDON. March 12.
