Cotton aS collateral.

IN another c"iumn OF the Manu-
facturers' Record are Given the
details Of a new plan for storing
cotton, which seems destined to
work incalculahlc HynoGt to the
South. The plan is the establish
ment Of bonded Warehouses for
cotton. One has already been
established at Charlotte, n. c..
and a company is being organized
to build anothe in South Carolina.
The Legislature Of the latter State
In 1895 provided for the safe
0neration of the system in that
State. For generations cotton has
stood for money with thousands
Of growers, but it has been money
subject, to a multitude of shay
ings and liable to fluctuations in
value beyond their control. The
remedy for the many evils in
vOlved in such a situation has
been long fought, but until the
present in vain. 1t seems to have
been found in the employment of
bonding or surety companies as
strengtheners of local warehouse
companies. The latter, by being
bonded in one of the surety com
panies, are enabled to issue GER
Tlicates, or receipts acceptable
as gilt-edged collateral not only
in local banks, but in the financial
centers of the country. That is
the simple theory upon which it
is believed marked change is
about to take place in the South.
In the description of the bonded
warehouse at Charlotte the de.
tails of the transactions with the
warehouse of a farmer having a.
bale of cotton and needing cash
are succinctly set forth. They
sfem to demonstrate that the
farmer will be placed in a more
independent position in the hand
ling Of his cotton that heretofore.
and that this system will con
u 7-a towards the prevention of
real or artificial dcprcssions by
the present necessity, which com
pels farmers to rush their cotton
to the market as soon as picked.
The farmer bringing &ale to
market will be enabled to place
it,in the warehouse at moderate
cost. secure from the bank the
cash which to meet his debts
promptly, and having wiped them
out, be IN a better position to

local banks will enjoy greater
business. Moreover, Southern cot.
ton mills will be enabled to carry
cotton in these bonded ware
houses, and the leading financiers

has been presented, state that

the narrow fields that the resident
,cultlvates. These fields are usually en-
closed by fimsy fences of mesquite and
cactus. There may be but one field and
tnat cropped but a single season; more
o1ten there are several fields cllltivat-
ca through several successive seasons.
Inc location of the temperate is de-
termlned primarily by the occurrence
OF water, secondarily by the nature of
the soil. 5s
IN the vicinity of nearly every town
IN Sonora there is a Papago pueblo,

dig clay and make pottery, which they
sell to the Mexicans. Thus the IN
dams obtain small quantities Of money
and goods, and at the same time ac-

tribesmen gradually return to their
rancherias, remove the barriers OF
stones and sticks from their door
ways, and await the fit moistening Of
the soil at the temporales. AT the
proper day they go forth to pillow and
plant, and watch the rapid maturing Of
the crops With the harvest time the
temperate is normally abandoned and
the produce transported to the
rancheria. At about the same time
the fruits Of the sahuaro and other
cacti ripen, and soon afterward the
beans Of the mesquite mature, and
these uncii1tiyated crops are in like
manner gathered and stored. Then
follows the southwark fitting and a
season Of idleness and feasting, to be
in turn succeeded by another migra-
ton when the rains come again. Thus
the life of the Papago is perpetual
wandering.

vaders. The rancheria includes sep
arate dwelling for each family, with
one or more stock corrals, and, if the
soil is fit, a few truck gardens ada
cent to the houses of the more enter
prising families. The dwellings are
scattered; commonly each is several
rods from the nearest neighboring
domicile, and thus village Of fifty or
more houses frequently extends over
the greater part of a quarter section
of land.
The dwelling comprises an enclosed
house, with usually an adjacent shelter
and cooking circle few yards dis
tant. The typical house consists of a
dome-shaped framework of mesquite
saplings, matched with sacaton or 9TH
er coarse grass, or sometimes with
leafy scrubs or bushes, or even with
cornstalks, the thatch, being sewn to
the framework with slips of yucca
stipes. Such a house is circular or
elliptical in plan, IL to 18 or 20 feet
across and five to eight feet high; the
roof portion is often fattened and COW
cred with layer Of earth two or three
inches in thickness, the doorway is a
simple opening, two feet or less in
width, and usually little more in hight;
sometimes a door made Of sacaton
dashed to light sticks is used, but ordi-
narily the aperture remains open.
There are no smokeholes or windows,
and the interiors are begrimed and
sooty. Frequently the house is. pro-
tected from the rayages of cattle and

lined almost continuously with houses.
About a hundred families Of Papagos
now occupy the reservation at San
Xavier, nine miles south of Tucson,
and are under the control of an agent
OF the Indian bureau. Though they re-
tain their primitive mode of house
building, cooking and other domestic
operations, their habits and modes of
thought have so altered that they are
regarded as alien or semi-alien by the
majority of the tribe. Another quar-
ter of the tribe are located south Of
the Rio Altar or it's tributaries in
Mexico, in scattered rancher.as or vii
lagos; the remainder, or fully. half of
the tribe, are roamers of the desert,
living in a peculiar manner which is
neither exactly nomadic nor exactly ag-
ricultural, but a unique combination Of
the two modes of life. It is this half
OF the tribe-the wild Papago-4that
is specially interesting to the ethnolo-
gist.
The life of the wild" Papago is a
round of migrations and wanderings,
largely in search of the means Of sub
sistence, of which the first and the
second and the third requirements are
water, water, water. During a con-
siderable part of the year the migra-
tory Papagoes occupy rancherias or
nominally permanent home villages;
tributary to each rancheria there are
several-sometimes but one or two
temporales or temporary farm domi-
Giles, and many of the families or fam
lily groups have winter domiciles, eth
er for hunting or pottery making, in
the mountains or valleys of Mexico.
$50 far as the meager water supply
OF Papagueria permits" says Mr.. Nc
Gee, "the household goods are en-
shrined about permanent springs, but
since the family groups many times
outnumber the continuously flowing
springs, rancherias are frequently es-
tablished round temporary springs,
round water pockets in the bottoms of
barrancas, or ponds produced by
storms. Some villages on the eastern
part Of Papagueria were formerly To-
Gated on fairly permanent though
slender streams heading in the Sierra,
