WHY THE UNIIED STATES

Use of Remarkable Machinery Ena-

complished in Other Countries.

The history of the growth OF the
production OF cotton in the United
States reads almost like a romance.
Il is the story, not so much of fertile
fields and valleys as of the wizarlry
of human ingenuity.
The potential productive possibili-
ties of the United States a hundred
years ago were great-or greater
than today The potential need of
the world for cotton may well have
been as great as at present, but the
coeJon was not produced, and could
net be produced, simply for the lack

the United States today.

the cotton gin and its perfection in
what is now known as the Munger
system of cotton ginning is one of the
mechanical marvels of the world, and

system permits tie ginning of more

JEfFRIES WORK
Ills Ideas as Fight Will Be
Fought.

San Francisco, Cal, June AL
though James / Corbett, according
to his own declaration, has not come
to California to take charge of Jim
Jeffries training. it is generally be-
lieyed that plans of the former cham
Dion for revision of the work win
abe adopted, and that Corbett VIII
Weld great influence henceforth in
the regulation of the Ben Lomand pro-
gram. He has some decided style cf
training Jeffries shall follow in prep
aration for his fight WITT Johnson.
He says he has thoroughly analyzed
Johnson's methods and that it is high
ly essential for Jeffries to school him
self to form of fighting best adapt
ed to meet the negro tactics. And, .
he said today, "it's fighting and box
ing that Jeff requires from now on.
When l was training for my meeting
with this same Jeffries, I hired Gus
Rubin, and we would lock ourselves
in twelve-foot ring and pummel ca IN
other all round the ropes. That is
the kind of work Jeffries should have
now"
Corbett and johnson are not on
friendly terms, and the former cham
pion is anxious to have Jeff whip the
black man, Regarding Johnson's re-
ported statement that he would like
to have Corbett face him in his train
ing quarters here, Corbett said: 4
defy him to bet $4,000 that l am afraid
to COME to his training quarters. Il
he accepts that challenge 1 will box
him whenever and wherever, he
pleases."
Contrasting the tactics of Johnson
and Jeffries, Corbett said John
son is wonderful defensive boxer,
and moreover he blocks with his hands
and does not depend upon his feet.
Strangely unlike most hat-footed box
ers, he is not aggressive. Nor has he
shown a punch Now, Jeffries likes a
man who VIII come rushing into him.
Johnson wi 20 nothing of the sort.
He will stay away and clinch as Of
ten as he can do so. Jeffries
does not need the rushing kind Of .
boxing partner so much as the fellow
who will step in, feint, make Jeff miss
! if he can, and then run away. That is
the kind of fight this one is go
ing to be-"
Corbett denies a report that he pre-
dicted that Johnson would not last
more than fifteen rounds. He is Ct
the opinion, he says, that the fght
will go much longer than that
With the return of the Jeff party
to Ben Lamond today, a conference
win be held, it is said, to determine
upon changes in the Jeffries regime
No friction in the camp as a result Of
Corbett's advent is expected, as
Corbett and ChoyinsH are believed tc
have settled the differences long ex.
listing between them. The hatche
apparently has been buried forever be
tween the two.

GROWING OLD.

The tallest lilies droop at eventide,
The sweetest roses fall from off the
stem;
The rarest thing on earth cannot hold
And We are passing, too away like
them
We're growing old
We had our dreams-those rosy dreams
of youth
They faded and twas well. This
after-prime
Hath brought us fuller hopes; and
yet, forsooth,
We drop tear now in this later
time
To think we're old.
We smile at those poor fancies of the
past
A saddened smile almost akin to
pain;
Those high desires, those purposes so
vast,
All, our poor hearts, they cannot
come again!
We're growing old
Old! Well, the heavens are old; this
earth is, too;
Old wine is best, maturest fruit most
sweet;
Much have we lost, more gained, al
though It's true.
We tread life's way with most I'M
certain feet
We're growing old.
We move along and scatter as we
pace,
Soft graces, tender hopes on every
hand;
At last, with gray-streaked hair ana
hollow face,
We step across the boundary of the
land
Where none are old.
