ECONOMIC HANDLING Of Cotton.

One of the great problems for the
proper solution by Southern cotton
growers is the economic handling of
cotton. When farmers lose fully l
cent a pound on the sale of their cot.
ton. due to the adherence TO old fash
toned primitive methods, they are cut
ting a big hole in the profit on their
business. Twentieth century methods
in all departments of commerce are
far ahead of the usages employed tif-
ty years ago, except in the baling and
handling of spot cotton. We are tied
TO the same old bale and wasteful
methods which were handled in linn
tied way by our grandfathers.
We have gotten rid of the tallow
candle and log schools of ante-bellum
days and are forging ahead by the
adoption of thousands of improved
methods in the arts and trades. But
the big old loose, heavy, cumbersome
bale is still with us, and bale, too,
which gives the trade each year an
enormous amount of pure graft which
the farmer has to suffer from. The
way to get rid of these troubles. and
to handle cotton economically, is to
demand the introduction of local gin
congresses. BY. COMPRISING cotton
NJ tho initial noint the farmers will
present a bale to the buying public,
and to the spinnors which carries with
the marketing of the staple the most
economic method by which cotton can
be handled This new system is sure
to come in time and be popular, but 1t
should not be delayed. Cotton Jour

The BOARD of Health.

At a meeting of the city board OF
health yesterday afternoon j. was de
cided to adopt the rules OF the state
Aof health for the government OF
the city board.
All the physicians Of the city will
cooperate with the health officials
and city council in the matter of re
porting every case Of contagious i'll
ness, and parents, guardians and 9th
ers are expected TO do so.
AS a precautionary measure it was
decided by the board to display blue
flag from any house in which there
was a case of diphtheria, and yellow
flag for scarlet fever. AS stated, this
is mere a precautionary or warning
measure 10 prevent any one coming
in contact with these maladies.
There is no scarlet fever here now,
save the two convalescents, but these
will be quarantined for so days, so as
to prevent the slightest possible OPP
portunity for the spread of the dis
ease. Mayor Maloney wishes parents
to feel entirely safe in sending their
children to school, as every precaution
looking to the safeguarding of the
health of the children will be taken.

A Psalm Of Farm Life.

Tell me not in broken measures.
Modern farming does not pay:
For a farm produces chickens.
And the hens-do they not lay?
Eggs are high and going higher, (
And the price is soaring fast.
Every time We get to market
1t is higher than the last.
In the broad and busy farm, yard -
Struts rooster now and then.
But the shrewd bewhiskered farme
Only notices the hen.
Trust no rooster. howe'er SNOWY
BE the feathers in his tail;
Pay attention to the biddies y
And your wealth will never fail.
Lives of farmers all remind us,
We may roll in wealth some day
If we hustle to the market
With the eggs our pullets lay.

Dallas, Tex, Oct. 27.-The Cumber-
land Presbyterian Synod of Texas in.
structed, by formal resolution, its trus,
tees to make written demand upon the
representatives of the Presbyterian
Church of the United States of Amer
lea for the possession ofTrinityUniver-
sity at WaXahachie and the Texas Fe-
male Seminary at Weatherfotd. The
Synod's instructions make it manda-
tory upon the trustees to take imme-
date action, and this action by the
trustees will, it is declared, enable the
synod to at once file suit for the pos
session of the property if the decision
of the Supreme Court of Texas be fav'
orable to the Cumberland Church in
the cause to be argued Nov. 4. The
case comes up from Texarkana, where
the decision of the appellate court was
favorable to the Cumberlands.

Every plan TO conserve and increase
the money supply should have the
support of everybody in Bryan. Every
dollar sent away for anything that
can be produced or procured here is a
loss to the entire community, and
every dollar brought in increases the
