New Demand For Garlic
Special to Independent.
JLittle Rock, May 29.—The Eu
ropean war is bringing garlic to
the front. It may be the means
of introducing a new industry
on the Arkansas farms. Com
missioner Page is in receipe of
the following letter from James
M. Sugg of Booneville, enclosing
a photograph of a garlic field:
“The growing of garlic prom
ises to be a new and paying in
sdnstry for this part of the state.
Garlic has been grown here for
several years, and its possibili
ties have been demonstrated
thoroughly. It is one of the
surest crops grown, stands the
vdrouth and wet weather better
than, most any other crop. ,Most
all the garlic used in this coun
tiy is imported from Mexico and
Italy. That source is being cut
off by the war and it is up to
ns to produce our own garlic.
The garlic grown here is very
much superior to the imported
article.”

Three Cents a Day
—just three cents. Almost too
small to think about. Yet three
tents a day will
yETNA-IZE
you and your family if you are in
a “Preferred” occupation;
—it will give your wife from
$1,250 to $3,250 if you are
accidentally killed;
—it will provide a weekly in- ■
come if you are disabled by an j
accident;
—it will pay $250 at once in
case of natural death.
The Ten Dollar
Combination Policy
—the best thing insurance offers. In ad
dition to the benefits named above, there
are also many others, covering injuries
and disabilities. Think of it — a policy
that includes both accident and life insur
ance— at three cents a day.

DON’T GET OLD
Before Your Time
With Kidney Trouble
Hundreds of women under forty
" ave drawn, old-looking faces, be
cause of kidney troubie. Many women
are di rigging along, tired a I the time,
sleeping poorly at night, with pain in
1 ack and hips, dull headaches, deep
kr.es in the face,—they think they
have female trouble, but it's nothing
more or less than weak kidneys.
Try Foley Kidney Pills, tone up
the kidneys—feel again the joy of
health and energy — and watch the
lines of weariness and care disappear
from your face.
Here is a woman whose experience
with Foley Kidney Pills is quite typ
' tl. This woman—Mrs. H. McLaugh
lin, of Decatur, 111., says: "Being
aware that many women suffer at
tacks of pain from which they seldom
are able to get relief, I feel I should
tie them a great service by telling of
my experience. Hardly a day passed
that 1 did not suffer some misery. I
had sharp pains in my back and loss
ct appetite, with headaches and dizzi
r.-ss. while rny kidneys gave me much
distress. I have given Foley Kidney
Piifs a trial and the results are that
! I am free of the annoying pains and
dizzy spells and my condition is
healthy and improving. I honestly
believe they are the woman’s best
friend in trouble."
You will find Foley Kidney Pill# at
your druggist's. Be sure to get the
genuine.
