1t looks like Brother Dawkins OF
the Monroe News has observed the
ways of courtship during his life.
Here are some of his remarks about
this important matter:
Miss Alice Roosevelt will not
discuss her rumored engagement to
Congressman Longworth, but the
papers say he calls her Alice and
she calls him Nick and that she
gives him her bundles to carry and
he readily runs her errands. This
does not signify. Many a fellow
has carried bundles, run errands
and called girl by her first name
and then has been "ditched" when
she became tired Of the devotion.
These fellows who play Fido to a
pretty girl and are ready to jump
when she snaps her finger are the
ones who always lose.-LefoMrche

organization of banks with a capi.
tai of less than $4,000, as many
as l ,754 of these banks were or.
ganized from March ii, 1900, to
Oct. 81, 1905, excluding those or
ganized in the noncontiguous pos
sessions. These banks are distri.
buted mostly throughout the South
and the north central States in
rural regions, where they depend
for thei business primarily and
direcsupon the farmers prosperi
ty, and, secondarily, upon the
village merchants and persons of
other Employment, who themselves
are dependent upon the prosperity
of the farmers.
Pursuing the subject, Secretary
Wilson declares that the, first time
in the financial history of the South
deposits in the banks Of the region
now exceed 1000, 100000 The
foregoing remarkable increases in
bank deposits inagrieultural States,
as well as the increase ia the num.

directly and indirectly because Of
the profits that have come to the
farmers from the operation Of thel,

COTTON MUST RISE SAYS HAYNE.

Frank B. Hayne, leader of the
New Orleans bulls, in an inter
view in the Times Democrat is
caustic in his comments on Secre
tary Wilson of the Z. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture due to the fact
that the departments estimate OF
10, 167,S ,SlS bales was based on 500
pound per bale gross, whereas -
pounds should have been deducted
for bagging and ties, making the
bale 47S pound net. Said Mr..
Hayne: "If this years estimate
had been made on the same basis
as last years estimate, the figures
that would have been read out on
the Cotton Exchange today would
have been 5,72O, 434 bales, instead
IF 1O,167,9lS bales, and it seems
most extraordinary that the De-
partment Of Agriculture in spite OF
the protest of the New Orleans
Cotton Exchange should have thus
willfully created wrong impress
sion in the public mind by making
the estimate on an entirely differ
ent basis from what they had hith-
erto done. The spinners' takings
last year were 12,45O 900 bales.
SO far this year they are 1874 900
bales more than to the same date
last year, which shows that if the
supply were there the spinners'
takings for two years would GER
tainly be 25, 100000 bales. AS the
supply, however, is less than a.
900, 900 bales, it is simply an i'm
possible proposition for the supply
to meet the demand. There is but
one answer and that is, Gotten must
advance to a price that will check
consumption. The mills have al
ready bought fully so per cent of
this crop at au average price prob
ably lower than their purchases to
this date last year, therefore with
far better trade and materially
higher prices for goods they can
afford to pay very much more than
to-day's prices before consumption
will be checked. ! feel confident,
therefore, that every farmer who
will sign the pledge of the Southern
Cotton Growers Association, TO
hold for fifteen cents will undoubt-
edly have an opportunity of realiz-
ing that price,

FARMS AND HOMES.

Private property. is one of the
most important institution of a fDe
people.
1t should be the ambition of
every citizen to own home. A
population tied to the soil by. own.
ership acquires an Importance that
no shifting and shiftless people can
have. Moreover, when people own
their homes they have an. oppor-
tunity to accumulate other property
which is denied to those who have
no fixed habitation, or wIo are
forced to pay great portion OF
their earnings in rents
The Census of 1900 showed that
there were in round numbers
l6, 200, 900 families in the United
States, and Of these more than
1000, 900 owned their homes, while
over 100000 were renters. This
should not be so, in face Of the fact
that the National Government and
many of the States own public
lands which are sold for home
steads for few dollars.
But the fact remains that more
than half the whole number of
families in the United States are
tenants on the lands and ip the
houses of others. OF course. there
are many reasons for it. Some
men can never get together money
enough to bny a home because their
earnings are balanced by their ex-
penses. Others are too shiftless,
while the crowding Of people to the
