Swimming needles that will remain
on the water, approach each other, and
float side by side. seem bewitchei to
those who know from experience how
quickly a needle will sink TO the bottom
OF a glass Of water under ordinary con
ditlons.
There are several ways of making a
needle float on the surface Of the water
The simplest way is to place a piece cf
tissue paper on the water and lay the
needle on IT, The paper soon becomes
caked with water and sinks to the
bottom. while the needle is left float.
ing on the tor. Another method is to
hang the needle In two sllngs made Of
threads which must be carefully
drawn away as soon as the needle
floats. The needle can also be made to
float by simply holding it in the finger
ana laying it on the water, but this re-
quires a steady hand.
After two or three needles have been
made to float in bowl Of water. mag
netize a sewing needle by rubbing il
on fairly strong magnet and when It
floats on the water 1t will make an ex.
tremely sensitive compass and will
attract the other needles. They will
slowly approach each other until they
float side by side. Do not have the
sewing needle too strongly uagnetIzed
o. the needles may strike together 80
heavily as to cause them to sink.

that the South with all of its re-
sources, is facing a crisis; that our
only staple, king cotton. is in the
hands of manipulators and specula-
tors, who are represented as cold
blooded vampires, sucking our life
blood. They urge that the need to-
day is organization. They ask all
growers of the neecy staple to reduce
their acreage 80 1-3 to so per cent Of
last years crop. This organization Is
to cooperate with all others Of the
same character all over the South.
Farmers all over the county are en-
tering heartily into the movement.
The merchants say they prefer to sell
goods on time to those who plant half
crops, as they will insure good prices
for cotton and plenty Of hog and hom-
