Stump Lifter.-What is the bestkind ol
machine for taking out stumps? Many
contrivances have been got pfor the pur'
pose of clearing fields of slunrps. Ore ol
The most common in this section is The
wheel and axis, mounted on high posts so
as 10 lili the stumps up. The Albany Gull
tivalor has a cut Of one which he says costs
three or four hundred dollars. and which
has cos the inventor. first and last, $4,000
10 bring to perfection. This appears to be
an excellent machine, but although it
requires but single horse to pull up a
stu mp Of the largest rate, yet ii COSTS TOO
much for these "digsings."
We have seen the following very simple
plan Of stlhp clearing, adopted with good
success.
Take srro1s stiff hard wood stick of
timber; say fifteen or twenty feet long and
six inches in diameter. Cut round the
stump and take off some the roots. Then
place the timber upright againS, The stump

us add 100000 bales as stock in other
ports of the Continent of Europe, and we
have a total stock of 100000 bales. The
supply for This year We estimate a, 6OO,-
600 from other countries than the United
States. The supply from this country we
estimate at 100000 bales, making to-
tai of 2,0000O0 bales, which added TO the
stock, will make the supply 100000
bales. Now what will be The consump-
tion? Grcal Britain will require $780,
600 bales, and the Continent of Europe
at least 100000. which will give an
amount of 100000 as the demand of
Europe, and which, deducted from the es.
limaled supply, will leave stock of l ,OO0,-
QUO on the lst Of January, 1916, precisely
the amount Of stock remaining in Great
Britain and Havre, Ly $4,000 bales less,
on the Ist of January, 1S45. We make
these estimates on the imports, consump-
,ion, and exports, of last years cotton
movements in Europe. Now, if there is
the least increase in the consumption of
this year, the estimated stock remaining
on the lst Of January, 1916, will be less in
proportion to the increase of consumption.
But it is contended that the present crop
of the United States will be larger than
last years. II vii! be larger. But how
much, it is not so easy at this time TO make
an estimate. From all the Information
we have been able 10 obtain from various
quarters, we have come 10 the conclusion
that the crop of this year will not be as
large as that of 1S43, which was nearly
2,400,000 bales. But if even the present
crop amounted to as much; if even it
went up as high as 25OO,OOO, would this
be sufficien, 10 create the alarm which has
taken hold of so many Of our citizens 3
Were not saving prices obtained in l843,
when the crop amounted TO 100000
bales? And why should mol present prices
he maintained with crop of 2,5O0.000,
especially when we must all be satisfied,
that since 1913 an increase of consumption
has taken place, and is still growing, not
only in Europe but in this country.
