| before, that Dr. Freidman, a young i physician of Berlin, has, after ten | years of study and research, discovered a positive cure for tuberculosis. i The news will be the best Christmas | gil t ever given the world since the I days of the blessed Savior. During ! the past year Dr. Freidman has posii lively cured over six hundred cases, practically without a failure and in some instances the disease had reached an advanced stage. Plans for ; bringing the cure to American aro now being made and if the cure works ' out r.s now seems assured, it means relief to suffering thousands and a : right ray of hope in many homes now shadowed by deepest sorrow and grief. The new cure is a serum, orig inally taken from turtles several years ago, and enough has been secured to last for all time, it is said. It is injected in the arm or hip, and while usually one injection does the work, j in no instances have more than four : been necessary. DOINGS IN SOCIETY Decatur Club at Ft.

as it was I made a profit of about 125 per acre, and although I have not had any personal experience of the good the land receives from the cultivation of beets, I have seen other farmers who have almost , doubled their oats crop by rotating with beets." L. A. Thomas of Monroe, said: "This is my second season In beet growing. Last year, not having a local market, I shipped beets to Ohio. My average was twenty tons per acre. This year I averaged eleven tons per acre .due to the fact that we had a very rainy season; still, I feel that I have made a good profit, as I reaped double my usual amount of oats this past fall from the ground I had raised beets in the year previous. Speaking from a farmer's view point I will say that the cultivation of besets is a first-class proposition in every way."
