The Cotton School of Memphis

Memphis, the largest inland cotton
market in the world, is to have cot
ton classifying school The Farmers
Cooperative Union of America,
spent several days in the city, and
consummated a deal with Memphis
Business College to teach this de-
partment in that college. This
school will help more young men to
better positions in the South than
any department. that has been estab-
lished for the past two hundred years
This is something that has been
needed for long time, but only
needed the right men behind it.
The school will be run by practi-
cal men of experience. cotton will
be in the school room, and the pupils
will handle and learn to grade it, etc.

reused from its slumber and made &c
do duty as of yore But this is not
enough, or half enough. Artificial
waterways must be constructed
through the Mississippi valley after
the plan OF the older European
countries. One already projected is
to connect the City of Chicago
with the Gulf of Mexico by way of
the Mississippi river. Another pro-
poses a canal from Pittsburg to Lake
Erie, and still another proposes a
deep waterway from Lake Michigan
straight through central Indiana to
the Ohio river.
Already the Presndent has APP
pointed a commission to take this
great question under consideration,
and, after an exhaustive exami-
nation it will report in 1909. Its
work will be of transcedent import
ance, as it will involve a compre.
hensive plan for the treatment Of the
rivers of the United States and will
include not only work upon navi-
gable waters, but also recommended
tons relating to the preservation of
forests at the headwaters, the purifi-
cation of water and the prevention Of
floods in streams. The prime OBJ
jects however, is to furnish addition
al means for moving the already
mighty and constantly growing COM
merce of this rapidly expanding
country. In time our great central
valleys will be cut up in all directions
by canal systems like those of Ho1-

great now, but If those living could
go to sleep, like Rip Van Wrinkle,

ment We are as yet an infant;
then We will be real giant and the
chief factor in the revolution will be
the revival and Improvement of the

Waterways and Civilization

Our agricultural and mm-rcia
development has been checked by ar
unexpected cause. Transportation
facilities are inadequate to handle
our gigantic commerce. The rail-
roads have been literally swamped
In many localities grain that should
have been shipped last fall is still in
the bin and manufa cturers in every
section of the country are unable to
get cars with promptness and when
once landed there is no assurance
that they will reach their destination
in reasonable time. Manifestly the
congested traffic problem has come
to stay, if the production of the
country continues to increase or re-
main as it is. The railroads. for
physical reasons, cannot be depend
ed upon to solve the problem.
Great as it is, Our transportation sys-
tenn falls far short OF the needs.
Nor is there any remedy in sight.
In the last ten years the production
OF the northern two-thirds of the in
terror Of this country has doubled.
while railroad facilities in the same
time have increased only onc-eighth.
There are not ears enough, but as the
railroads we'll know, even if the num-
Der of cars was multiplied, the diff
ficulty would not be met. There are
not locomotives enough TO draw a
sufficient number OF cars to meet our
transp ortation needs. There are not
tracks enough There are not termi-
nal facilities enough, Moreover,
there IS not enough iron manufac-
tured in the United States to build
the railroad tracks, cars and loco
motives required to provide for our
transportation facilities; and still
futher, there is not labor enough
available in the United States to
mine and manufacture the iron in
sufficient quantities to meet our
needs
There is only one remedy in sight
The only hope for the future, the
only reliance is upon our waterways.
The first highways OF man. that
enabled him to get from place to
place, that made civilization pos
sible, will again have to be called in
to service The rivers must be
brought to the aid of the railroads
and both will be needed to transport
the constantly increasing commerce
of this giant nation. Every navi-
gable river will have be improved
regardless Of expense The Missis-
sippi must be made navigable from
its mouth to St. Louis for vessels of
the deepest draught The Ohio must
be improved by locks so that the
largest river boats may use it all the
year round. The Missouri must be

GOOD Luck" by the Train Load

The large number of carloads of
GOOD LUCK that are being sold to
jObbers all over the country is not
only story of prosperity, but clear
indication of the excellent qualities of
this wonderful leavening agent. The
above car. containing xteen and half
tons of GOOD LUCK Baking Pow
der, was recently sold and shipped by
the manufacturers, The Southern Man
Virginia, to the big grocery house of
The Goyer Company, of Greenyille. The
officers and members of this grocery
house are progressive men who buy
everything in large quantities and pro-
cure their stocks the best basis pos
sible. GOOD LUCK however, is the
only brand of Baking Powder which is so
quick seller as to permit its purchase
in solid carload lots. Travel where they
will the statesmen all bring back the
same report of great praise for GOOD
LUCK"

one of the principal causes of the

particularly which is no fault of the
country banks and one which has
never been known before in our
financial history the refusal of the
large city banks to pay out currency
to the country banks upon their
bank balances there on deposit.
The local banks. and, so far as we
can learn, the banks of Grant

in a manner to meet the con-

greatest extent possible under the

toward preventing a recurrence of
a similar situation in future if the

A reactionary storm period falls

with corresponding rise of tempera-

to much colder will rush down from
the northwest about the 10Th TO
22nd.
A regular storm period extends
from Friday the 22nd to Tuesday

aries of the county, fine agricul-

that could be mentioned in this
connection. Withal it is located in
