The recent cold wave was a blessing in disguise, if the Georgia State Entomologist has a correct line on the boll weevil. He says the cold wave A ' may not have killed the boll weevil but has given him a setback which will result in benefit to the farmers, who will get busy on early producing coti ton. In all places where the tempera um- went In-low 12 degrees, .Mr. YVor- s sham says, it killed the weevil where n in- is exposed. It has not killed him jj though, where he has gotten in under i the eaves of houses, wrapped himself j in vegetation that is covered so it will j not freeze, or hidden away in shucks, v ? s HENRY FORD THE PATRIOT V Henry Ford is a patriot. In a re- L cent statement lie said: P "I stand by our President and in the vent of a declaration of war will ,j place our factory at the disposal of the United States government, and i will operate without one cent of prolit. I will also contribute my own j I time and work harder than ever be . u 1 ore. Mr. Ford's peace ship did not ac- " I coniplish much, but if he will put a | i few warships at Uncle Sam's disposal j ^ j i In- nation will pay him homage. ! . ??????? j MINISTERS' SONS That much-disparaged class, ministers' suns linds a vigorous and very able defender in The Literary Digest, in an issue of recent date. Instead of furnishing the nation with a galaxy ?f scalawags, the clergy have made of their sons men of distinction and of no small prestige. Of the famous writers of America these were the i sons of ministers: Emerson, Holmes, Lowell, Bancroft, I'arkman, Gilder and Lyman Abbott, besides many others of lesser note. In politics these famous men were I the sons of ministers: llenry (day, I President James Uuchanon, Chester A. Arthur, President Grover Cleve.and, President Wilson, Justice Chas. ^ E. Hughes. "" Among other men whose fathers > were ministers are Cyrus W. Fields, ? who laid the Atlantic cable, Stephen * J. Field, Justice of the Suprenu t Court, Samuel F. .Morse, inventor of I ' the telegraph, Mergenthaler, the in- ' * ventor of the Linotype. ? Hut America is not alone in furnf, ishing famous men who were minisJ' lel's' sons. Here are a few of the noli tables, all of whose fathers were a i preachers of the gospel: Oliver Gold- \ * j until, Jeiiner, the father of vaccinaJ Lion ; Hen Johnson; the poet Cowper; ? Sir Joshua Reynolds, the great paint- , J r, and Charles iSpurgeon, the great I Baptist preacher. I Itclerriiitc to this line record, the ' Literary lowest says: "Instead of beI irij* amiable vagabonds, the sons of 'leiti'ynic'n come pretty close to the rank of top-notchers in every licit! of nuinan progress." Now when you hear ministers' sons decried as a class, hear in mind the acts here slated and tcive them their due. Hawaii is adopting prohibit ion.

Under the able manage, .cut d" Mr. Watson Hell, tcmal things are expected of this already excellent paper. I he leading statesmen of the country are standing by President Wilson ri the present crisis. Taft, Roosevelt and Hutches have approved the I'resileiit'.S attitude Koni.fi.r i . if the ablest and most ardent I.*? jn11?licans, made a speech in Congress ondorsing the President. When Northern Republicans are laying aside their antagonism and (locking to the standard of our great President, it is very painful to know that there are in the South some so-called Southern Democrats, whose attitude in this crisis falls very little short of treason.

The sweet potato, being: a J on-perishable crop, makes a most de- 1 irable food crop for both man and tock. Of the many standard vari- . ties, the Nancy ilall is probably one f the best for table use. The following statement, showing xpenditures and receipts on one acre | f potatoes for the past year, has :alomel salivates AND MAKES YOU SICK. let* Like Dynamite oit a SluRfLh Liver And You Lose a Day's Work.

It is a pleasant, vegetable liquid hich will start your liver just as 1 urely as calomel, l ut it doesn't make ou sick and cannot salivate.
