Americans are not the most impu.

Nevertheless on occasion they can
give points to those Of some other ma

"Have you been photographing my

Russian laughed, and the two men fell
into conversation, whereupon the Amer

some photographs from his pocket, he

The Russian looked from the man to
the pictures with undisguised amaze

he admitted
"Perhaps you know their names and
will oblige me by writing them on'the

Like the queen Of Sheba before Solo

the Russian. Meekly he took the prof
fered American pencil and upon the
! Americans prints wrote the names OF
the Russian torpedo destroyers.

Fallacy of Moderate Drinking

The dictum of science on the subject
of moderate drinking is by no means
ambiguous. Science does not support
the plea that alcohol Is a harmless
pleasant beverage. 1t cannot support
the plea of the moderate drinker that
alcohol is an aid to health, but It does
support the position of the total ap'
stainer with an emphasis which 1t Is
culpable to disregard. 1t shows that
the abstainer can do more and better
work. live longer and be healthier
than the moderate drinker Science ID
short shows that the abstainer lives
the normal life, while the moderate
drinker lives the abuormal.-Thomas

And how the winter night was rent

CUTTING DOWN COTTON.
Effect of Decrease In Acreage on
YariOua industries.

Effect of Decrease In Acreage on
Various Industries.
The declared intention of the cotton
planters to reduce the acreage is hay
ing its effect. The first noticeable diff
ference in the commercial world Is In
the fertilizer business. Secretary Of
Agriculture Stevens of Georgia will not
give the exact figures, but says the de-
crease In sales In the state for January
and February is somewhere between
40 and so per cent. That Is cutting IL
down with vengeance. The railroads
of the south are losing an immense
amount of traffic in this line, and hum
areds and thousands Of men are out Of
a Job, as 1t usually takes q lot OF labor
TO handle the heavy STUFF. The trade in
mules has fallen off some % per cent,
and that means a whole lot. Georgia
has in the neighborhood of 225,000
mules. to say nothing Of the horses,
and when you take off the fourth Of the
new mules that come in every year 1t
amounts to good little bit. Georgia
and the south buy n lot OF foodstuff,
but the less work the farm animals
have to do the smaller their number
and the lower the feed bill.
The Labor Item.
The greatest Item Of all Is the labor.
Labor expenses will be minimized, and
the labor actually retained on the

crop. There is no work on the southern
farm half 80 firing and incessant as
that necessary to produce and take care
of cotton. The labor will figure In the
matter from start to finish. Beginning
with soil preparation, 1t goes on until
the work of hauling to gin, ginning
and hauling to market is finished. Cut
ting off a few million bales Of the crop
will amount to q whole lot in the finish.
Eventually the railroads and all trans
portation companies will be losers, just
as they are now in the start.
Ultimate Results.
But labor will not suffer. Prices de-
cllning O little In the wage scale VIII
not amount to much, as home grown
products will make living cheaper. The
south needs all the labor 1t has to help
develop the growing industries-in
fact. IL needs q whole lot more of the
right kind.
