SECRET THOUGHTS.

] hold II true that thoughts are things
Endowed with bodies, breath and wings,
And thatwe send them forth to I'll
The world with good resultS-or ill
That which we call our secret thought,
Speeds to the earth's remotest spot,
And leaves it's blessings or its woes
Like tracks behind it as 1t goes
it ia Gods law. Remember IL
In your still chamber as you sit
With thoughts you would not dare have known,
And yet make comrades when alone.
These thoughts have life; and they viii ny
And leave their impress by and by,
Like some marsh breeze, whose poisoned preath
Breathes into homes its fevered breath.
And after you have quite forgot
Or all outgrown some vanished thought,
Back to you mind to make its home,
A dove or raven, 1t viii come.
Then let your secret thoughts be fairj
They have vital part and share
In shaping worlds and molding fate
Gods system is SO intricate.

THE DRUMMER AND HIS GRIP

Though the rain and sleet are falling.
And the roads are awful muddy;
Though all men "hard times are bayling.
Though a fellows nose gets rudy;
Though the river may be frozen.
And the frost may bite and nip,
They can never stop the advent
OF the drummer and his grip.
Though the trains may all be mashed IN
And the horses all go lame,
But the drummer, like the bedbug,
VIII get there just the same;
And when his tine is over
VIII come smiling from his trip.
For he always makes connections,
Does the drummer with his grin.
All, he teaches Us lesson
With his energy and grit:
Things that ''paralyze" most people
Don't astoHish him bit,
And he's ever bright and cheerful,
And smile is on his lip
He's daisy from away back,
Is the drummer with his grip.
Give him a kind word always,
He'll return to you the same;
For the doing OF some black sheep,
Don't give the whole tribe blame:
For down, way down to hades,
Some so-called good men slip,
While on the road to heaven
Goes the drummer with his grip.

FIGURES OF THE CROP.
BIG DIFFERENCE IN ESTIMATES
OF COTTON MEN.

The Financial Chronicle Puts the Crop
at e,o39,7o7 Bales, $4,000 Bales
Less Than Hester's Figures-How
the Difference In the Estimates Of
the Crop Occurred.
The summary OF the cotton crop OF the
year 139l-'92 as made up by the
Financial Chronicle has just been pub
lished. The Chronicles figures show the
crop to have been 9.o3s, 7O7 bales, which is
quite in contrast with Supt Hester's report
Of the New Orleans Cotton Exchange by
whose figures the last crop was made 70
count 9, O9s, 357 bales. aud the weight Of the
bales averaged 49s.7 n pounds. The CHron'
icte'S figures are a fraction less than 49S.75
pounds. II the difference between the
weight Of the bales for the previous year,
which was ace. "a pounds, be deducted from
the number Of bales it would decrease the
total Of the crop TO 9,01g, 500 bales.
The report Of the Chronicle shows the
overland movement to have been l 1864
bales and the consumption by southern
mills 6Sl All bales, which Is a great deal less
than given in Hester's report. Both re-
ports, however, agree on one thing and
that is that the crop were the largest ever
produced. The Chronicle also states that
yearly every body's calculations with regard
to last years crop was at fault because the
result was too largely reached through the
outlook IN the Atlantic states. "As to those
states no doubt the antioipations of some
what decreased yield were correct, but the
error which was made arose with reference
TO Texas and the Mississippi valley, which
more than made good the loss elsewhere.
For that extensive section q series of crops
in recent years had led to an opinion of the
product eness OF the enlarged acreage
under cotton there, which was less than its
capacity in a favorable season. That land
was some OF the most fertile in the cotton
states, and with weather suiting its full de-
velopment the result astonished everybody.
The question now is, what are we 10 ex-
pecs this yearl II we are correct in our
explanation Of last seasons mistake, that
mistake will help to guide the Judgment to-
day. or course 10 10 early as yet to come to
any precise figures, for this crop is no doubt
a late one. But starting with an acreage of
II per cent below last years the larger
portion of which loss was in the alluvial
lands and with spring and summer
conditions 10 the Mississippi valley less
perfect, even granting every other sur
rounding TO have equaled the surround

certainly we do not know any portion of
the south where they have been better
must we not reasonably accept the proba-
bility of g very material falling off in the
production during 1922 1t is too early to
estimate cotton crop, and especially when
that crop Is late. One can only at this
time make very general suggestions which
tho reader will heed or not heed according
as his observations. accord or not with the
