The Wilson-Watterson-Harvoy-
Ryan episode has not added to the
prestige of the New Jersey govern-
or. To as it is daily becoming
more apparent that Candidate Wil-
son cares more for his political
fortunes than he does for principle.
His nomination would prove as
great a calamity to the party as
tyls election would prove a disaster
to the nation.

and don’t you doubt it.
The fame of the Teague country
is spreading. The fact that we
won $1,600 in the Industrial Con-
gress crop contest has set people
all over the country to talking
about our county and (inquiries are
coming from every section: Plant

It isn’t often that the Chronicle
presumes to give adyice to farm-
ers. but it seems that a reduction
of the cotton acreage is so necessa-
ry for the prosperity of the farmers
that we urge it upon the husband-
jnen of Froestone county. We re-
ceive more money for a small crop
of cottpp than for * large ome.
This being true, then why in the
name of common sense should the
farmers* 5f the South continue to
produce a surplus of the' staple?
Reduce the acreage and increase
your profits. And keep on reduc-
ing until you starve the world into
paying you a just price for the
product of your labor. To us this
appears to be the only remedy Jor-
present conditions.

they will wear almost indefinitely

their beauty is heightened by treat-

OLO-TIME SUNDAY GOLF.
Golf appears to have given the
seventeenth century Sabbath admin-
istrators of Scotland more trouble
than any other form of frivolity. In
the previous century the fascination
of the game ligd Sunday license, but
in the seventeenth the clubs were
banned during the hours of divine
worship. Helfe is a typical entry
from the registers of Perth in Janu-
ary, 1604:
“The visitors report that guid or-
der was keeped the last Sabbath, ex-
cept that they found some young
boys playing at the gowf in the
North Inch, in the time of preaching
afternoon, who were warned then by
the officiars to compear before the
session this day.” The half-dozen
culprits escaped with a fine of “ane
merk” and a public exhibition of
themselves to the congregation.

Scalp and Hair Troubles Gen-

Dandruff is a contagious disease
caused by a microbes which also
produces baldness. Never use a
comb or brush belonging to some
one else. No matter how cleanly
the owner may be, these articles
may be infected with microbes,
which will infect your scalp. It is
far easier t<» catch hair microbes
than it is to get rid' of them, and
a single stroke of an infected comb
or brush may well lead to baldness.
