KILLED BY A TREE

Statesboro, Feb. Gilman Donald

turning home some time during last
night in an automobile from Wood
cliff, where they had been visiting. Mr..
Donaldson was a son of r. F. Donald
son, cashier of the Sea Island bank,
of this city.
Finding that his son had failed to
come home during the night and fear
ing that something had happened to
him, the father secured an automo-
bile this morning and began a search.
About ten miles from Statesboro he
found the car in which the two young
men had been riding, wrecked, with
large pine tree across it,
Young Register was driving and-was
apparently bending over wheel. The
tree had fallen across the back of his
neck. Young Donaldson was in an OPP

FIVE MILLION DOLLARS SENT
OUT OF STATE FOR MEA1

Atlanta, Feb 6.-Figures compiled
ut the capitol show that during the
first eleven months of the year just
passed there were imported into this
state over thirty-fve million pounds
of side-pork, worth more than five mil
lion dollars and over eight million
pounds of dressed beef, worth some
thing like couple of millions more.
But this means a losing to the peo-
pie of the state Of a great deal more
than the seven million dollars actually
spent for if people raised their own
meat they could make on the whole
many millions of dollars of additional
profit in addition to saving the huge
drain Of money that goes out OF the
state now for food supplies.

There might be food for thought
for Georgia farmers in the latest gin
ner's report of the cotton ginned in
Georgia and Alabama up to January
16, 1917, from the 1916 crop. Georgia's
crop for 1916 so far is 96,717 bales few
err than the 1915 crop. Alabama's crop
for 1916 so far is 4GS,979 bales fewer
than the 1915 crop.
The decrease in the cotton crop in
1916 in Alabama was 372,261 bales
greater than the difference in Geor-
gia's 1915 and 1916 crops. Last year
for every bale of cotton Georgia lost
Alabama lost 3,S bales. Considering
that weather conditions must have
been similar in Alabama and Georgia,
how may the decrease in Alabamas

NEW HAWKlNsVlLLE CHURCH.

Hawkinsville, Feb. 5.-The Baptsts
of the city have authorized the pas
tor to appoint committee to take the
matter up OF planning campaign to
raise $4,000 for new building. 1t
was pointed out that architects had
found it impracta cable to remodel the
present structure satisfactorily, and
il would be in the interest of economy
to take down the present building and
utilize as much of the material as
possible in the new one.
The new building will be modern,
with special reference to the Sunday
school work. Separate class rooms
and departments will be observed
The present school developed growing
symptoms of late, and the modern
equipment would easily double it's
present membership. Neighboring
cities are all busy on new churches.
Cordele, Cochran, Rochelle and Ocil-
Ia all have new buildings, either just
finished or just started.

HERE ARE FIGURES SHOWING
WEEVIL s. EFFECTIN NEW FIELDS

crop of 372,261 greater than Georgia's
decrease be explained if Mr.. Boil Wee
vii didn't get it?
This is undoubtedly an interesting
list of figures. There is something
underlying the difference.
To those of us who had the good for
tune to visit Alabama's weevil in
tested cotton fields during last year,
the fact that Alabama's cotton crop
dropped off 46S,978 bales may not be
so hard to understand, after all. 1t
would have been well if more people
could have seen the devastation of
that gentleman, Mr.. Boil Weevil.
Where farmers learn how to work, as
in Texas now, they grow cotton in
spite of the weevil, but he does CON
siderable damage until .he is under
