There is more Catarrh in this sec-
tion of the country than ail other dis-
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur-
able. For a great many years doc-
tors pronounced it a local disease and
prescribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced It incurable.
Science has proven Catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional • treatment.
Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is
the only Constitutional cure on the
martlet. It is tatoen internally. It
acts directly on the blood and mucous
■traces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure.. Send for circulars and
testimonials.

regarding the marketing association!
they are all ready to look to said mar-
kesting association for a market and
yet very few of the farmers of the
county have given the secretary of the
association any idea as to how many
bushels they have for sale., or when
they will be ready for market
One community lias stated that they
will have about a car load, but as yet
their potatoes are not dug.
It is a very hard proposition to in*
duce buyers to make an offer on any
product unless they can be shown the
quantity we have for sale, and the
condition they have been graded to.
If those who have an acreage in po-
tatoes would first dig and sort their
potatoes, and thus learn how many
salable potatoes they have, report thll
to tiic secretary, or to some member
of tli<- marketing committee, they will
till n be in better position to find some
one w ho will be ready to buy.
Another thing: Why crowd our po-
tatoes on the market just now, while
til* price is low, when it is usually the
case that after the first 30 to 45 daya
of marketing such articles the price
advances.
