How Two Men
Cured LaGrippe
“Last winter I suffered with a ter¬
rible cold and a case of la grippe,”
writes E. C. Rhodes of Middleton, Ga.
“When getting well of la grippe I still
had a hacking cough and for several
months could get no relief. Finally
I began taking Foley’s Honey and
Tar and soon I was well of both
cough and cold and it never re¬
turned.”
“After F. G. having Prevo, Bedford, Ind., writes:
an attack of la grippe
It left me with a severe cough and
I tried everything. I lost in Weight
and got so thin it looked as though
I would never get well. I tried
Foley's bott'ea Koney and Tar Compound and
two cured mo. I am now well
and back to normal weight.”
Foley’s Honey and Tar Compound is
a healing family remedy and seldom
fails to relieve coughs, colds, croup.

THE BOLL WEEVIL ■i
AND CREDIT
J. Phil Campbell, Director Extension
Division College of Agriculture.
Much of the cotton that is grown
in Georgia requires an advance of
credit from the banker, or the mer¬
chant. When the boll weevil has made
itself felt there will be a hesitancy
about advancing credit on the crop.
In fact there may be an absolute with¬
drawal of credit which would spell
disaster.
It will be a mistake to cease growing
cotton, even in the presence cf the boll
weevil. Therefore, it will be a mis
take to cease extendihg credit on cot¬
ton crops. Bankers and merchants
j have it within their power to meet the
• boll weevil situation safely anu saneiy,
I prevent panic and gradually direct
farming into a more profitable line
than ever could h..vo been under the
one crop system.
, The uepredaiiens of the weevil will
i increase gradually. Except under most
| unusual circumstances will it do it
! greatest damage within the first year
or two af er its appearance. Each
year it will take greater toll unless
er methods are used to combat it. It
would, therefore, seem a wise policy
for the banker and the merchant to
gradually reduce the amount of credit
on cotton. If they are to encourage
the largest development of the agri
cull ural possibilities of the legion they
serve, a3 well as develop their own
business, they will at the same time
encourage the diversification of crops
| lurd' the gradual introduction of live
: stock to consume the products. There¬
fore, credit must be extended to these
crops, as it is being gradually reduced
on cotton.
j - It has been estimated that the cut
in the yield cf cotton the first year of
the invasion of the weevil is from 10
to 20%er cent; the second year from
25 to 45 per cent and the third from
40 to 60 per cent, depending upon what
measures have been taken to hold tlie
weevil in check. Under some such
schedule, a credit basis may be estab¬
lished on cotton.

Start In tiie Cole
Business This Spring
Milton P. Jarnagin, Professor Animal
,Husbandry, Ga. College Of Agrl.
Near 600,000 horses have been ex¬
ported from this country to warring
Europe. In the cotton belt this means
higher priced mules and horses, not
only for this year, but for years to
. ftrflfe. When the war is over Europe
ten years or more lt wU1 haye Ug ef
f ec t on prices in this country,
This spring every mare in Georgia
| | should be bred to a good sire. If this
were done there is a possibility of bo*
tween 35,000 and 40,000 colts being
born. The last census showed that
there' were only 1,4SS colts born tn
Georgia during the year the figures
were taken.
The colt crop for next year will
be determined in the next 60 days. It
is, therefore, time for farmers to be
looking about for suitable, sound stal¬
lions. If there are none or none gooa
enough, the College will send an ex
pe:t where therfe is sufficient interest,
and see if a co-operative arrangement
cannot be made for buying a good stal¬
lion. Two stud fees per mare for 40
to 60 mares would meet all the ex¬
penses necessary to purchase a stal-

Put Farm Machinery In Shape
Before Spring Work Begins
L. C. Hart, Professor Farm Engineer¬
ing, Ga. College Of Agriculture.
Time and money will be saved if the
farmer will see to it that before spring
work beg’ns, all of the farm imple¬
ments are repaired and in readiness
for the rush when it begins. All the
plows, harrows, seeder^ cultivators,
etc., should be assembled and looked
over for all necessary repairs and new
parts. These should be attended to
at once, so that there will be no ae
lay when the farm work begins.
All bearings should be cleaned.and
ln A rs t n class r**? condition. All single
trees, neck yokes and double-trees
should be assembled and attached
where they belong.
Doing these things before the time
for activities in the field begin, re¬
lieves the burdr-n and worry when
spring opens, and makes the farm op¬
erations go off smoothly and with
greatest results when the farmer is in
greatest need of all the efficiency he
can get out of his equipment.
This is a time also to study labor
saving or improved farm machinery
and have it ready for spring work.
It is better to take time and study
all kinds of farm machinery than to
lay out money in anything not the
best for the individual needs. Many
costly mistakes have been made by
Georgia farmers in too hastily conclud¬
ing that they had found the best ma¬
chines for their purpose when there
has been some little thing about them
which they overlooked that made it
unsuccessful for their hillside or sandy
land. *-

People who use Peruna
Mrs. T. Freeh, R. R. 1, Hickory Point, Tenn., writes: "I am happy
to tell you that I am cured of catarrh. Having been afflicted with
- catarrh and stomach trouble for seven years, and after having tried four
different doctors, who only relieved me for a little while, I gave up all
hope of being cured. I was induced to try Peruna, and to my great
surprise I am now entirely well. My health never was better.”

FOR INDIGESTION
Mrs. W. R. Whitehead, R. R. 1, Pryor, Oklahoma, writes: “t am
happy to tell you that I keep free from my old stomach trouble: feel no
catarrhal symptoms at all. I am able to do my work, eat and drink
: what I want, and rejoice to know that I found a sure cure in your
valuable medicine. I think it saved my life. By beginning In time with

one of the three German free ports, now ranks as the second greatest seaport
ln the w orld, its total foreign commerce in 1913 being only $6,000,000 under j
that of New York.
“The free port would effer great opportunity for financial operations, now I
made possible by the recent currency act. It would stimulate international!
banking, and would tend to shift the financial center of the world to this'
country. And America, by the logic of events, has become the natural center j
for the world’s financing, just as London became that center several centuries
ago, when it shifted from the cities cf the Netherlands. But the financial!
center will only move to this country when it becomes a clearing house of:
goods as well as of money. For credit the world Over Is created by currently \
created wealth in transit or change so that our financial expansion is depend- 1
ent upon the opening up of American ports to the clearance of the wealth of
the world. A port should not operate to yield a return on the investment,
but to develop the prosperity of the country.” In recapitulating the advan¬
tages, Mr. Howe brings out the importance of the free port in developing our
shipping and linking us with South America, Asia and Africa, and then con¬
cludes:
“The most important gain is the direct gain to America It will cheapen
commodities by bringing great quantities of goods to onr doors for importa¬
tion or export, as trade needs demand. It will stimulate the growth of export¬
ing nouses, which can hold poods for an indefinite period without payment oT
tariff dues (often equal to the cost of the article itself) tor disposal to meet
tho trade demands of the whole world. It will upbuild international credit
and shift to America an increasing and ultimately a predominant share in
international exchange.
“Finally, America is the natural country to be the counter of the world.
Its seacoasts face every other continent; it is tho greatest of all reservoirs
of raw materials and foodstuffs. In iron and sfeel and standardised produc¬
tion It is in a position to compete with the world. But international trado
(and this is always overlooked) must be reciprocal. It cannot be one-sided.
And credit balances cannot for any prolonged period be paid in gold. They
can only be paid by exchange of wealth.”

On The Advantages of Free Ports
Mr. F. C. Ilowe, Federal Commissioner of Immigra
tion, who is one of the best. American authorities on
marine commerce, in discussing the relation of free ports
to the development of sea trade said in part:
“Ships will go hundreds of miles out of their way to
avoid ports surrounded by a tariff wall. The only way,
therefore, for a country with a tariff to compete in the
shipping world with a free-trade country is to establish
free ports at strategical points along its coast line. Ger¬
many has done so, and in a comparatively short period
has built, up a carrying trade which before the war was
seriously threatening England's supremacy. Hambur#,
