Peanuts,— Prospects, Suggestion "
The dry weather is not hurting
the peanuts yet, and will not hurt
until the nuts begin to form.
Even then we do not think there-
will be much damage unless the
drouth should continue indefinitely
which is not at all probable. A
good rain within the next three
weeks will insure a splendid and
profitable crop.
Most of the peanut men have
quit cultivating during this dry
weather. After the plow has
stopped over two weeks it is not
a good idea to plow again until it
rains. This is a rule on all crops.
When dry weathre comes if culti-
vation. This continued right along
there need not be any ceasing of
cultivation; but when you stop and
wait for a rain and it does not
come keep on waiting till it does
rain. Peanuts sholud not be dis-
turbed with a plow now, the plow
should only be run so as to push
soil up to them or slightly over
and around them.
The Jacksboro Oil & Milling Co.
is making preparations to take of
the nuts and there will be just as
ready a market here for peanut as
for cotton seed.
As hogs will be cheap it might
be a good idea to hog off the nuts
rather than harvest and thresh.
On account of bad grain prospect a
number of people are offering hogs,
cheap now,
Where a man intends to thresh
the nuts should be harvested
promptly at time of maturity and
not run risk of second growth nearly always a ready sale for it.

After Four Years of Discouraging
Conditions, Mrs. Bullock Gave
Up in Despair. Husband
Came to Rescue.
Catron, Hy.—in an interesting letter
from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock
writes as follows: "1 suffered for four
years, with womanly troubles, and during
this time, 1 could only sit up for a little
while, and could not walk anywhere at
all. At times, I would have severe pains
in my left side;
The doctor was called in, and his treat-
ment relieved me for a while, but 1 was
joon confined to my bed again. After
(bat, nothing seemed to do me any good.
I had gotten so weak I could not stand,
and 1 gave up in despair.
At last, my husband got me a bottle of
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I com-
menced taking it. From the very first
dose, I could tell it was helping me. I
can now walk two miles without ks
tiring me, and am doing all my work.’r
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don’t give up in despair. Try
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. It has helped
more than a million women, in its 50
years of continuous success, and should
surely help you, too. Your druggist has
sold Cardui for years. He knows what
it will do. Ask him. He will recom-
mend it Begin taking Cardui today.

with plow, put into windrows
and then cocked and then ba/fid for
feed. Or they maybe put in stacks
like hay. Where nuts are to be
threshed for seed or for sale to
manufacturers, or for crushing,
one of two methods must be obser-
ved. One is to stack the nuts
around pole and the other is to
stack them in hollow cocks about 5
or ft feet high, tn both cases the
nuts are plowed up and stacked at
once. The dirt is shaken off, the
bunch laid down with nuts to cen-
ter, leaving a space of about 18
inches and built aroundl and round,
finally closing in and capping.
They can remain out in weather
six weeks or longer and become
thoroughly cured.
Why Endure Sommer Colds
It isn’t neccessary to have a stuf-
fed head, running nose. To cough
i
•your head off as it were. AH you
need do is to use Dr. Bell’s Pine
Tar Honey. The soothing and heal-
ing balsams open the closed air
pasaes 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 getting better. Get a bottle,
use as directed. Keep what is left
as a cough and cold insurance.
A Splendid Food Snpply
The editor attended several pic-
nics this summer and at each one
there was served beef, chicken and
—what else? Why, goat meat.
Not much goat meat, not near
enough to supply the demand. In
fact there seemed to be a universal
preferance for the goat meat over
the beef. The goat men in Jack
county bring in some goat meat to
Jacksboro every year, and they sell
it at a very good price and there is
rather expensive fencing to keep
him in bolMfla is not well founded
from1 the fact flhat there are quite
a number who no other fence
except the usual thies wire fence.
The goat does not seem to care
much for field crops if he can get
plenty of brush.
The editor has had quite a num-
ber inquiries as to where goats
may be found. We do not believe
the growers in Jack county can
supply the demand. But Stockers
may be found in the Fort W'orth
stock market. Any of the commis-
sion buyers in Fort Worth will buy
them for you. Jack county could
raise 200,000 goats a year and
increase the producing power of
other livestock at the same time by
making better pastures. Go-at the
goat business.
Catarrhal Deaf ness Cannot be cured
by local applications, as they can-
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure catarrhal deafness, and that is
by a constitution! Remedy. Catrrhal
Deafness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustatchian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing,
A Growing Industry in Jack
To ere has been a great deal of
to increase the dairy
in Jack county and the*
goat requires business is gradually growing every
year. This year it has really shown
a much healthy outlook than ever
before. Usually when the hot dry
days come the cream shipments
cease altogether, but this year they
continue right along. Cows go dry
or at least weaken very much in
milk production when dry grass is
the only feed, but many of the
dairy farmers have learned to plant
a soiling crop of Sudan, sweet
sorghums, soy beans or other crop
and continue the milk production
right along.
The dairy industry is very pro-
fitable as will readily be testified
to by those in the business. This
country is naturally adapted to the
draiy business. We have almost 12
months of green, grazing weather.
There are only three drawbacks to
the dairy business. It interferes
with fishing, it interferes with
camp meetings, it interferes with
the frequent visits to relatives in
distance parts. These three things
are the Texans great prerogatives
and must not be interfered with.
Still there are quite a number
shipping cream and probably the
entire amount from the county that
is shipped from Jacksboro will
amount to about one thousand dol-
lars a month.
