FIGURING ON COTTON CROP.

Mr.. Theodore Fl. Price, of Wall Street,
New York, has issued circular setting
forth his reasons for believing that
the cotton crop of 19O1-1902 will be a
short one - not exceeding $500, 600
bales. He bases his estimate on the
rainfall, and shows from the official
records that the rainfall in the Atlantic
group of States has been the heaviest
in ten years while in trans Mississippi
States it has been the lightest in ten
years. He goes further and declares
the records show invariably that excess
siye moisture in the Atlantic States
and dry weather in the trans Missis-
sippi States have never failed to seri-
ously curtall the yield. Comparing
the records Of other years when such
condition existed. Mr.. Price figures out
that the crop will not exceed $500, 900.
He demonstrates this to his own salts
faction with several different calcula-
tions.

CORN BREAD IN EUROPE.

The effort started some years ago to
popularize cornbread in the old world
has met with unexpected success, says
the Montgomery Advertiser To a
Southerner it seems strange that peo-
pie shonld require to be taught to eat
such bread, but it is fact that up to
a recent period it was not considered
fit food for human beings by a great
majority Of people on the other side.
According to recent statistics, we ex-
ported, in round numbers, "A, 600, =
900 bushels in 1898 and 209, 900, 900
bushels in 1900. In other words, we
now send abroad nine or ten times as
much corn as we did dozen years ago,
and the greater portion of 1t goes to
Europe. Figures like these mean
much to the farmers in this country,
and with the many failures of the
wheat crop in Europe and the demand
for our corn, it is hardly probable that
the price for the latter will ever again
be as low as we have seen it.

''In the Century Dictionary" says

Argus, which ought to know, dissents,
however. It says: "We do not so IN

serted that the name should be pro-

Conductor Vandyke of the Milwaukee

city crossings with freight train. The
complaining witness was Jerome Braz-

the Grand street crossing last Sat

ed wagon for twenty-five minutes. He
states that he asked the engineer to
pull up and let him pass, and that that
individual jeered and laughed at him.
His story is substantiated by several
others. The limit allowed by the ordi-
nance for holding a crossing is five
minutes. Mr.. vandyke has the reputa-
ton on the road of being an accommo-
dating and genial conductor and the
authorities are inclined to believe his
story, which is to the effect that he
gave his engineer orders to cut the
train while he attended to some work in
the yards. The proceedings against
HIN were continued. The engineer will

1t is universally accepted that stone
pile in a city yard is good thing for
tramps, but there is difficulty in keeping
the lazy lichens at work. They can be
told to work or starve, but an ordinary
tramp would prefer to half work and
half starve than work perseveringly and
live we'll. Hence the stone pounded into
bits is not large in quantity.
Now comes a member of the city
council. whose name may De used later,
who has an idea not altogether original,
but new enough for all practical pur-
poses. He advises the digging of large
cistern on city property, connecting the
same with the city water mains. In the
.clstern set a pump. When hobo Is
caught shove him into the cistern,
which Is open at the top the entire CIR
conference, and turn on the water. The
fluid runs in rapidly and gurgles about
the feet of the hobo who Is told to
pump. The longer he refuses the nearer
the water comes to his neck, and If he
won't pump he can swim awhile, which
is equally as hard work when prolonged.
He cannot get out, and must swim,
pump or drown. IL he pumps he can, by
working lively, keep NE cistern clear of
water. If he refuses to work he takes
the consequences. Here is a device that
could be used on all offenders, and
should have place along with the
whipping post in every city. Breakers
of the law escape with too much ease
these days to continue their outlawry.
