How Disease is Caused „
It is vital to health that there he no congestion, no stoppage, no dirainuation of the supply of
nerve force from the brain to any organ of the body.
For instance: Stomach troubles, indigestion and constipation are caused by a decreas-
ed supply of nerve force to the stomach and in testines, which causes various glands, such as
the liver and pancreas, to fail in delivering the proper amount of digestive fluid, or, in the
case of constipation, to fail in securing the proper lubrication or muscular movement of the
bowels.
Remember that the cause is a lack of proper supply of nerve force—the symptoms are
pains in the stomach and bowels, gases, headaches, nausea, vomiting, paina in the back, in-
digestion, constipation, etc. ... .
Do not think that because you have no pain in the back, your spine is in perfect align-
ment and needs no adjusting. Many people have this impression, but they should go to a
Chiropractor, who will show them how the cause of pain and sickness is in the spine.
In most cases Chiropractic declares and proves the reduction of nerve force is caused by
pinching or pressure at thfc point where the nerves leave the spinal column. One or more of
the bones have become misplaced (called sub luxated) the opening has become narrowed—
the bones press against the nerves—the supply of nerve force is cut oil or reduced—aud until
this condition is removed the trouble will continue. ~
How Chiropractic Succeeds
The Chiropractor is specially trained in knowing the spine—knowing how each of the
bones should be placed—detecting the slightest deviation from proper position—and by ad-
justment with his hands he restores the norm al position of the bones so as to remove pres-
sure or obstruction from the nerves.
In acute cases a single adjustment, or a few, will suffice. In chronic cases, when the
bones have long been allowed to grow into the wrong position, more treatments or adjust-
ments will be necessary. But in every case the Chiropractor studies the cause—finds the
cause—finds the place where the nerve supply is shut off—and bends all his education and
all his intelligence and all his experience to the restoration of normal nerve force to the
parts affected.
Why Chiropractors Succeeds
Chiropractic science has located the spinal source of the nerves
that supply the head, eyes, ears, nose and throat—has located the
spinal source of the nerves that supply the bronchial tubes and lungs,
the heart, liver and kidneys—has located the spinal source of the
nerves that function the stomach, the intestines and other organs.
An experienced Chiropractor after an analysis of your spine can
tell you where your physical weakness and troubles are. because he
can tell at what points nerve force is weakened, restricted or cut off.
And. having located the source and the cause of your troubles he is
trained to correct the abnormal condition by adjusting with his hands
the spinal column. He does this at regular intervals of time, at the
proper point, until the nerve is relieved of pressure and the unre-
stricted flow of nerve force is again supplied to the diseased parts.
The nerve force is just like an electric light or phone system.
The central station is in the brain—the trunk line or cable is the
spinal cord from which the branches pass through the spinal bone
openings to all parts of the body. If the bones press upon the nerves
it is like turning off the switch—the nerve supply is impaired. Then
the Chiropractor finds the switch that has been turned off or tamper-
with, removes the obstruction and Nature again turns on the
power-
Nature Does the Curing •
And when he has done this lie has restored natural conditions so
the system can work properly. He has not with drugs or other exped-
ients secured a temporary alleviation. lie hasn't caused the diseased
organs to function artificially and to demand artifical stimulus, such
as is the case with habit-forming drugs. The Chiropractor has re-
stored to Nature, as exemplified in the1 normal body, her chance tp
work in her natural way. And Nature never fails to work when ob-
structions are removed. When there are no obstructions to nerve
.force all the parts of the human body work like a grea't machine—
llaturally. When the Chiropractor has removed the olwtruetion to
the fiow of nerve force, Nature at once resumes sway, the parts work
as they ought, and restoration of health follows resistlessly as fast
as Nature can work to put the tissues or organs into their normal
state.
In chronic cases, where bones and ligalnents and tissues have
changed their character, it takes longer than in acute or sudden cases,
because Nature cannot undo in a day a condition that may liavo taken
years to create. But Nature can be relied upon to do it when obstruc-
tions to her opertions have been removed.
DO IT NOW! It wont cost you a cent. Let me show you a human backbone. I will explain and prove how it governs your
health or causes sickness. You, your family, your children, all should know what this great science of spinal adjustment can ao
for you. Don'# delay. DO IT NOW.

This la his definition of socialism:
"Socialism Is, in politics, republican-

definition of socialism Is adequate
which does not measure off the whole
of human life and says: "Socialism

men have looked upon it as a political

"There is one Socialism but many
organisations, as there was one Israel

THE EFFECT OF WHISKY ON
COTTON.
A friend from Gurdon, Ark., R. A.
Staurt by name sends us some queer
literature put out by the United
States internal revenue hence a
terrible burden of taxation on cot-
ton and tobacco; for further infor-
mation and enlightenment write the
Dixie Growers' League P. O. Box 987
Atlanta Ga., to which Mr. Staurt re-
plies in one unanswerable sentence.
"It is strange that whisky people
In talking of the lost revenue on their
products never seem to think that the
people are being taxed to build pen-
intentiaries, Jails, orphans' homes and
the like, to say nothing of the wreck-
ed homes caused by drink."
These Memphis Cassandras ask
that the whole subject be studied^ All
right, here goes: Whisky puts weeds
in many corn field, but nothing In the
crib, whisky causes plenty of acci-
dents, but never moved a freight car
nor ginned a pound of coton; whisky
turns men into swine, but it never
hangs a ham in the smokehouse;
whiskey keeps the Jails and courts
busy but it does less than nothing for
the schools and churches. To argue
that the south cannot do without whis-
ky is like arguing it cannot do with-
out the hookworm. Whisky Is a drain
on the life of any community tolerat-
ing it and Its relations to legitimate
Industries is one of cost and hinder-
ance. "Dixie Growers' League" sounds
well; nevertheless booze is not King
Cotton's ally, but his unresting enemy.

When you find the teeth and gums
sore, bleed, the teeth falling into holes
the gums separate from the teeth,
black spots on the teeth inside and

A 8PRING TIP.
There are few things more fascin-
ating than the development of a well
planned garden. True it will mean
many hours manual labor to prevent
the weeds and insects from ruining
your early spring labors and the wa--
tering can or the garden hose will
have to be called into use frequenUy,
but labor will pay large dividends in
benefits to the gardener to say noth-
ing of the reduction in the weekly
budget of the household.
The tomato vines will need to be
tied up and watched for cut worms,
the corn will have to be hoed and so
will the beans; the lettuce will have
to be transplanted and the beets thin-
ned out, and there will be a hundred
one other precautions that will have
to be taken to insure the proper re-
sults, but each operation will have
its special benefits and lessons that
will more than repay for the trouble.
And during the development of his
garden the wise gardener will note his
success and defeats and store that
; information away for use the follow-
ing year. Every failure will be an ex-
perience to be avoided the following
year and every success an experience
to be enlarged upon. He will learn
things for himself and every T)it of
knowledge gained in that way will be
worth a whole chapter written for
his benefit by some one els*

WHAT FARM LIFE LACKS.
Farm life in the Southwest is im-
proving from year to year. There are
indications that the next few years
will find our farms producing better,
our schools more efficient in training
the boys and girls, our roads maintain-
ed so that the cost of hauling will be
less than it is today, our churches
reaching more people and a greater
factor for humanity, our homes more
attarctive and comfortable.
But what can we do this year that
will hasten such improvements? What
is our greatest need for farming and
rural life at the present time? And
how can we supply it?
Now that farming operations are
well under way with bright prospects
for good crops, let us think seriously
about improving rural life. What does
rural society lack and what tnay it
do for the young people?
What is your neighborhood doing to
make living conditions better? How
can you and your neighbors advance
the interest of the coummnity?
Let us hear from you at once. Farm-
ers, citizens, men and women to~tell
how in their opinion farm life may
be improved. Surely we may get some
valuable information that will help us
advance.—Farm and Ranch.
i
When a neighborhood realizes its
possibilities for improvement it will
find a way and the people will not be
required to carry very heavy financial
burdens either. It does not require
heavy financial burdens If every citi-
zen will do his part. The difficulties
have been that in many communities
some are not willing to do their part.
They want the improvements in roads,
schools, churches, co-operative enter-
prises. etc., but they expect their
neighbors to bear the expense.
Before progress can be made the
people of the community must under-
stand that community progress re-
quires the assistance of all. When all
take part no one will be burdened but
all will get the benefits.
One reason many communities are
1 rack ward is the fact that too many
people expect outside help and are
not willing to help themselves. The
-tate. the national government and
philanthropists, etc., have done much
for willing communitiea, bat there is
very little encouragement where the
people of the community are not will-
ing to do their best—Farm and Ranch.
STOCK FARMER'S SUGGESTION.
Sweet clover began to furnish pas-
ture in Southwest Oklahoma early in
March this year. Sudan grass furnish-
ed pasture in 1015 from the middle of
June until November first. When we
can set good pasture from November
first until the middle of March with-
out uch damage to the grain crop.
But leaving out the wheat, we can
plant kafir or cane for ensilage and
fill silos for insuring succulent feed
during the four to four and one-half
months which sweet clover and sudan
grass do not give pasture. This will
make a combination for feeding dairy
cows and stock cattle which will
make profits for the farmer.
