Looking Ahead.

Il is not too early in the season TO
plan for your Christmas remem-
brance. These need not-indeed,
should not-be elaborate, or expen'
sive. Many little things can be
made, and others picked up while on
shopping tours, and put away for the
holidays. Do not give beyond your
means a "trife with true love" is
more to most people than something
suggestive Of barter and exchange.
DO not give things that will only
"clutter" and be IN the way. Many
gifts are simply "vhits elephants"
on the hanls Of the recipient. Many
people will appreciate a card,
growing plant, gilt Of flowers, a
book. or some article that can be
brought into daily use in the home
more than any gift that only takes
up room and gathers dust. II you
can do no more, learn Of wants OF
needs Of your friends, and in a sim
pie way. unsuggestive Of a return
present, try 10 supply the desire.
A great many persons would rather
face an army on the battlefield than
to "shop" for Christmas gifts.

Who Loses?

One Of our friends and subscribers
writes 10 inquire whether farmers
are allowed "sir per cent tare on
every bale OF cotton That is, upon
a bale weighing 500 pounds. is he
allowed 80 pounds-or $50 pounds.
instead Of just the 500 pcunds2"
No Il is Just the other way. The
farmer loses the tare. Every Liver
pool order 10 buy. carries With Il the
Instruction 10 offer such : price as
vill alloE for &C. /. +. and o per
cent. 90
{. stands for cost.
/. stands for insurance.
r. stands for freight.
The sir per cent stands for tare.
Therefore the farmer loses so
pounds out Of every bale OF 500 lbs.
In other words, the deduction for
vTappage (Tare) is made against
him.
The weight Of the bagging and
ties is usually rs pounds. The farm
CT pays for these ard be gets pay
for the rs pounds when he sells bis
coiton-just as though the eighteen
pounds Of bagging and ties we're rs
pounds OF cottln. But on the entire
bale Of 500 lbs, he looses 80 lbs,
as tare
Hence bis net loss in pounds, Is y.
On a crop Of 100000 bales,
this loss amounts 10 la 900 900 lbs.
Put into bales this would make 2SS y
600 bales. Al i2c. this is ST. ESQ
600.
The Gotten grower loses that sum
every year. And he Is about the
only man selling his goods who has
20 loose the tare.
When he buys -four. he pays the
tare. That is, the cost Of the BAR
rel vill come out Of him.
When he buys canned goods, the
cost OF the cans comes out OF him.
When he buys stuff which comes in
Jars and jugs, and bottles. he pays
the tare. That is. the thing which
the article comes TO market In, will
be paid for by the customer who buys
the article.
There will always be such a short
age in the weight or the measure as
will make up for the box, the barrel,
the keg. the bottle, the jug OF the
jar
The farmer. bringing cotton 20
market, is the only man who is made
to loose the cost Of the vrappage.
He alone loses the tare.
And in his case. the tare is not as
sessed agains, The actual weight OF
the bagging and ties, but It IS aroi-
iranly hKed at per cent, which 10
many cases is double the actual
weight OF the bagging and ties.

Nitrate Deposits.

There is general prevalent idea that
it is an admitted fact that the Chilean
Nitrate deposits will, at the present
rate of working, be exhausted in the
near future, probably within about
twenty years. This estimate is based up
on surveys and calculations made some
10 or 10 years ago, before a complete
examination Of the panpas outside the
province of Tarapaca had been under
taken. In recent years vast deposits
have been discovered and surveyed in.
the districts of Antofagasta, Ta1tal and

official estimates the store of s.caliche'
