DOUBLING THE COTTON CROP.
Not Nv Increasing the Acreage Hut
by Improving the rlnnt
aud staple.

Some very startling results have
been achieved by the department Of
agriculture i'm improving American cot
ION With the cotton crop Of the Unit
ed States reaching an annual value Of
nearly 5000 100000, it is easy to see
that the man who can make it worth
four or five cents a pound mor1 10 the
grower will put a few dollars Of spend
ing money into the pockets OF the
southern planters.
This improvement Of the crop has
been realized and there appears no
reason why in ten years from now the
whole of the cotton belt should not be
growing a longer staple cotton worth
on the average of four and one-halt
cents pound more than the present
rrop. OF course. this millenial condi-
lion of things Will not be altogether
realized. That there wig be a decided
and general advance in the value Of
tbe rrop as the result of work already
done by the agricultural department is
certain. But there are always the fac
tors of ignorance, Indifference and pref
udice TO be reckoned with, and that
will hold down the grand total of the
advance.
This is human nature. Otherwise
every one would be raising thorough
bred stock, cats, and chickens which

IMMIGRATION.
Some of the Rcnsons why the Tide
of immigration should He
Turned Southwark.


We are heartily IN favor OF turning
the tide OF immigration SouthWaTo, ana
While we may be jhoUSnJ 10 ue
wrong, we give the following reasons
for the faith that is within u.s.
l. We want more labor IN the souJh,
and immigration furnishes the quickest
way OF securing an adequate supply 10

- lhe more people we uaFe-'He
better roals-more chlIrcheS ana
SchooIs-the better all our social adFan-
tages In the country
.. The more peopIe-the better mar
ket We have for all our production. one
hundred people Will give You TOO
chances to make sale; IQO0 people
swiftly increases your chances up TO
1000.
d. The southern states can amply
support 1900 population TO the square
mile, and We do not average 80. Hence
it will take one thousand years to reach
our capacity.
s.. Increased population means in
creased land values, and a farmer is no
poorer with only 100 acres of land
worth $4,000 than he would be with
1000 acres Of land worth only 10000
G. These immigrants will help to di-
versffy our farming and increase our

show in Rchelieu, in order to achieve the
desired end. The story is told of Gould that,
having been caught short of Erie, and being
unable to cover except at enormous loss, he
sent his broker to a big banking firm which
was in the pool that had cornered him. The
broker asked for the loan of big block of
Erie. He met with fiat refusal. Gould
waited until the afternoon, and then went
to the bankers himself
- am short of Erie he said mildly. You
have a lot of the stock. Can you as favor
let me have several thousand shares?"
You know. Mr.. Gould, the answer came,
I'VE would like to accommodate you, but
really we have no authority from our clients
to do that"
Gould looked as If utterly crushed. Ali his
courage seemed to ooze out of him, and he
fell on the sofa like a man in a faint. Pretty
soon he asked in a weak, plaintive voice,
What's the price of Union Pacifc?"
1t is eighty, Mr. Gould" (What the real
quotation was at that time l do not know
Gould sighed and was heard to mutter to
himself It's too bad | suppose it will go
to fifty in twenty minutes"

this is true of those great movements which
are achievements of superb generalship, not
involving criminal acts nor producing loss to
the country, as well of the meaner feats of
low stock jobbery. Moreover, if we were close
to great manipulation during one of his deals,
as Dow was to Gould, it is likely that nothing
in his manner would show any of the emotions
that he was experiencing. When James r.
keene was disposing Of an enormous block of
Standard Oil holdings of Amalgamated Cop
per, so sklfully was the deal managed that it
was reported that the Standard Oil people
were buying, and the prices were higher when
he finished his distribution than when he began.
Yet it is likely that if one had entered the
Office where Keene was conducting this opera
ton, during this time, he would have seen him
pacing up and down the room, giving every
outward evidence of intense agitation, every
now and then pulling savagely at the tape and
muttering to himself. One might think that
he was involved in colossal losses instead of
successful transaction. If he had indeed been
losing, 1t is likely that he would have been the
quieteS., most serene person in Wall Street.

The Red Howling Monkey.

The red bowler (Mycetes seniculus)
Is rare monkey of the forests of
tropical America. 1t is an extremely
delicate animal and is chiefly remark
able for the extraordinary noises it
makes. The cries it utters comprise al
most any sound from subdued moan
to an angry roar, and it is hardly con-
ceivable that they should proceed from
single animal. This is the animal
called red monkey by Waterton in his
"Wanderings In South America" where
an admirable description of it's weird
cries may be read. These sounds are
produced in a bony cavity formed by
an enlargement of the hyoid, or tongue
bone. In appearance the red bowler is
an elegant little creature, well clothed
with hair of a reddish brown color.
Like the spider monkeys, it is provided
with long, prehensile tail, the under
surface of which is naked toward the
tip, but it differs from those monkeys
in having well developed thumbs
