Cotton Farmer, Distribute
Your Debts this Year.

The idea of distributing cot
ton debts through period of three
or four months instead of having
them all fall due in Novem Der,
is proving popular all over the
South. Mr.. Ransom Hinson,
upon whose suggestion the first
resolution was introduced in the
Wake County Association, writes
as follows In the Cotton Jour
nal:
81 realized many years ago
that it was the cotton due on ac-
counts and lien bonds due about
November 1st that put down the
price and it was the strongesl
weapon the bears had to fight
the cotton farmers with. ! Tried
TO get the Farmers Alliance to
pass a resolution to that effect
fifteen years ago, and | tried also
to get the Cotton Association to
do 80 a year ago, but could not
make them see as | did.
! believe the notes and lien
bonds should be made payable
October 18th, November 18th
and December 3Oth, so as not
to force the sale of so much cot
ton on the markets AT one time,
which lowers the price of the
distressed cotton and also helps
to depress the price of the bal
ance of the crop. am told that
there are two million tons of fer
tilizer sold in the South, and |
don't think it would cause the
fertilizer manufacturers any
great Inconvenience to make part
of their notes from dealers due
sixty days later. The prosperity
of the fertilizer manufacturers
depends upon the prosperity OF
of the farmers, so they should
try to help the cotton farmers
get : fair price for their cot
ton.
l hope you will call the atten-
tion of all farmers TO the impor-
tance of this matter and get them
to take some action in all the cot
ton-growing States"
Cottoa farmers all over the
South should take up this mat
ter right now in their clubs, un-
ions, and associations aud 60 in
to it like fighting fire. This
great congestion of debts and cot
ton every fall tends to destroy
good prices for cotton just as fire
destroys other property. Take
up the matter at once; and if you
have to make debts for 1908,
divide them up into smaller
parts falling due at intervals OF
80 and 90 days instead of all at
once.--Progressive Farmer.

MARRIAGE IN FAR GREENLAND.
Ceremonies Short and Strenuous, But
 Matches Successful.

The courtship and marriage customs among the Greenlanders were in early times simple and unceremonious enough, since we are told that when a lovelorn youth made up his mind as to the girl he wanted to adorn and be useful in his hut of ice or snow, he went to her home, seized her by the hair or wherever he could secure a good grip on her, and dragged her to his own domain, where she was ex- pected to "stay put" without any further marriage ceremony.
 If an affluent bridegroom, he would perhaps soothe her lacerated feelings by presenting her with new lamp or some other article of household utility. No matter how willing or even eager the bride was to marry young man, Eskimo etiquette demanded that she should resist every attempt to drag her to her new home, and she must weep and vail bitterly once she was there. Indeed, she must continue to

The mind of the observer of to- days events off Yokohama must in evitably recall the scene of 55 years ago. when Commodore Perry's little fleet of unwelcome visitors anchored in the Bay of Yeddo, tore the ex- elusive veil from the face of Japanese civilization and gave the impetus to that movement of national transforma- tion which has been the wonder of the modern world. The contrast be- tween the wooden paddlewheel steam CTS and sailing ships of 1853 and 1854, with which the Japanese were over ,awed, and compelled against their will to enter into communication with the west, and the steel-walled battleships of Admiral Sperrys command, today welcomed with lavish hospitality at the Japanese capital, is suggestive of tue Grea.ex contrast between tho inter-

Its an in suit to girl to be kept waiting an hour for a man who does not intend to come. and it is especially humiliat- ing when she has asked him to go with her, instead of him asking her. It hurts her pride, and I should think If a man had the least bit of considera- tion he would be careful not to let any girl he cared for get into that po- sition.'
 I'm awfully sorry, Carol, it hap peend so. But don't you see my point of view? I thought you had sent express directions to me not to wait for you. I didn't know just why you had changed your mind, but since you had, I thought it was up to be to honor your wishes in the matter"
