Ore letter from the director f the Red Cro?s. hospital No. 74, Gulfport, Miss., stated the motto around the post for several days following Christmas was: “It’s great to be a Georgian." “I heartily agree with them.

It strengthens me in my weak ness to know that so many friends think of me.” Ex-Service Men Doing Time. Extension of the American legion survey of ex-service men in penal in stitutions in the United States has begun in Georgia. A preliminary survey taken of the state’s prisons,, federal penitentiary, jails and campS shows that 663 ex-service men are now incarcerated for crime; 332 of these men have filed claims for com pensation for disability. Of this number 126 have been awarded com pensation by the veterans’ bureau. The veterans’ bureau of the fifth district has kept in constant touch with these disabled men in the penal institutions, all efforts having been FARM LOANS AND INVESTMENTS.

THOSE NOISY MINORITIES, REG US PAT Off made to correct injustices that might have arisen. This survey is based on the contention that many such m&n now serving prison terms are not mentally responsible, as a result of war injuries, and are imprisoned when they should be receiving care in the mental institutions. The American legion does not intend and will not request clemency for any veteran who does not show mental disability. Memorial Athletic Field. The Rotary club of Anderson, S. C., has voted $3,000 to assist the An derson local post of the American legion in erecting a memorial ath letic field on the grounds of the boys’ high school of that city. The legion, with the support of the Rotary club and the other civic organizations, expect to put this program over dur ing the ensuing year. F. Q.

ILawrenceville, Ga. ■Cnma—np-i .toOjOHH Greater Stride* Are Loefcei B*c VHa Year Thaa Brer Before—lacreaae4 Industrial Activity Shown. Atlanta, Ga., January 10. —Things continue to look mighty good throughout the south, in the opinion of Atlanta business men and the heads of large manufacturing enter prises here. They assert with con fidence that 1924 will witness even greater strides of southern, business than 1923 at any time experienced. That the high price of cotton is not the sole reason and probably is not the paramount reason for con tinued southern prosperity is indi cated by statements of officials of the Federal Reserve bank of the sixth district, located in Atlanta, that the advance in the price of cotton has been limited by reduced produc tion. The Federal Reserve bank statement says the sixth district, composed of the states of Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Tennessee, Mis sissippi and Louisiana, will produce nearly a half million bales of cotton less this season than last. CLiier agricultural activities than the production of cotton have had effect upon southern development although cotton naturally is the back bone of the south’s financial status. Co-operative marketing, producing in increasing, quantity other money crops along with cotton, adoption of advanced and improved methods in farming and a determination, evi denced among southern farmers, to gain freedom from the handicap of the one-crop idea, agriculturists here state, all helped to make them a big factor in advancing southern business to its present fine position. But other forces also, Atlanta bus ines men say, are working for the de velopment of the south, chief among them increased industrial activity and lack of unemployment through the operation of mills and factories at top speed. Profit in Sheep Raising. If the south, would rr'Mlaeo wool as well as cotton, the textile industry would soon be centered here, with many woolen mills eager to buy the raw product, as the cotton mill 3 ate taking much of the south’s cotton right at home, in the opinion of ag ricultursts who are now advocating sheep grazing on southern hills. It is pointed out that the south is especially adapted to raising large numbers of sheep and the industry, it is asserted, is a profitable one, the sale of wool and of mutton and lamb adding greatly to the incomes of farmers. The department of agriculture now reports that under the existing tariff, according to figures made public, there has been dpring the last two years a big increase in the number of sheep, brought about by, trie stim ulus of tariff protection and .the ac tive demand fur wool.. But notwithstanding this increase, the farm pi ice of sh,eep has risen from the poverty.figure of $4.80 to 57.50 a head, and the, farm price of wool has increased frpm an average of 29 cents a pound in 1922 to 38 cents at the present time. Leading farmers of the state who have discussed the matter at the state capitol point out that it would not re quire a heavy outlay of money on the part of the farmer to put a few sheep to grazing on his idle land, and in a few years there would be many sheep in the state and in the south and a good increase in income from the sale of wool, which now is bringing a good price.

Quart of Water Cleans Kidneys T I Take a Little Salts if Your Bac,. Hurts, or Bladder is Troubling You No man or woman can make a mis take by flushing the kidneys occasion ally, says a well-known authority. Eat ing too much rich food creates acids, which excite the kidneys. They become overworked f/om the strain, get slug gish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood. Then we get sick. Rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleep lessness and urinary disorders often come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys, or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of scalding, begin drinking a quart of water each day, also get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoon ful in a glass of water before breakfast, and in a few days your kidneys may act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia, and has_ been used for years to flush and stimulate the kidneys; also to help neutralize the acids in the system, so they no longer cause irritation, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to help keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood pure, thereby often avoiding serious kidney complica tions. By all means have your physi cian examine your kidneys at least twice a year. (FOR OLD SUBSCRIBERS) The News-Herald, Lawrenceville, Ga.
