UNION FIXES
PRICE OF COTTON
AT IA CENTS

This years cotton crop will be
sold for Ia cents during Septem-
Der and October and Is cents
thereafter. This was the agree
ment of the cotton growers of
the South attending the National
Farmers Union.
The action, which was unani-
nous, was taken in the adoption
of a report or a special commit
tee on minimum price. The COM
mittee was composed of cotton
growers who were largely in
fuenced by scores of letters and
messages from all parts of the
South, many of which urged a
minimum of Is cents.
Little of the proceedings of
the Union were made public al
though, aside from the price the
farmers ask for their cotton,
good roads, parcels post and dab
bling in cotton futures were dis
cussed by the convention.
Members Of the union say
parcels post will be favored by
the farmers, and that the dele
gates will endorse the Scott
antigambling'' bill, prohibiting
the use of mails or interstate
commerce for the furthering Of
contracts for the delivery Of cot
ton where there is no intent to
make actual delivery. The re-
port Of the Live Stock Commits
sion urged diversified farming
and stock raising and contains
the statement that 1000, 900
additional mich cows and an
equal number Of mother sows
properly distributed through the
South would easily add $40 per
bale to the cotton crop"
The congressional immigration
committee recommends increas-
ing the tax per head, excluding
illiterate adults from America
and the fning of foreign steam
ers for bringing to this country
undesirables that could be re-
jected on the other side.
All of the National officers were
reelected with the exception of
one executive committeeman, and
the next meeting place will be
selected next summer.

24OO PEOPLE KILLED
BY ANIMALS LAST
YEAR.

Calcutta, Sept. 16.-According
to a statement published by the
Government of India, the total
number of persons killed by wild
animals in 1910, was 2400, COM
pared with 2496 in 1909. Man
eating tigers were more agrees
sive in the Sundarbans portion of
the KhuIna district, and this fact
is attributed to the diminution OF
their natural food supply, owing
to the drowning of large num-
bers of deer in the storm wave
which accompanied the cyclone
of 1909. In the central provinces
and Berar tigers destroyed 81
victims, as compared with 102 in
the preceding year. Six known
man-eating tigers and two pan
theirs were killed during the year
in these provinces. The abnor-
NAL number of deaths due to
wild pig in 1909 in Eastern Ben
gal and Assam (126) was not
maintained, though SO persons
were victims to these animals.
The total mortality among hui
man beings caused by snake bite
rose from II, 1854 to ", 478. An
increase in Eastern Bengal and
Assam is attributed to snakes be-
ing driven by high floods to take
refuge in the raised village sites.
Both in this province and in the
United Provinces a considerable
number of cases were treated
with the Brunton lancet and per-
manganate of potash, and a high
proportion of them are reported
to have recovered. No reliable
deduction C a n, however, be
drawn from the use Of this Ian
Get, owing to the lack of proof
that the bites it was used upon
were really those of poisonous
snakes.
The number Of cattle killed by
wild animals was SO, 074, against
2O7 in 1909.
Rewards are paid for destruc-
ton of wild animals and snakes.
In 1910 1421 tigers, 5O29 leopards,
1892 bears, 3114 wolves and 81,
1O4 snakes were killed.

All Dead.

There was a man who never told
a lie
But he's dead;
Never said it was wet when the
weather was dry
Never said
He'd caught fish when he hadn't
caught one,
Never said he'd done something
that he hadn't done,
Never scolded his wife and never
got mad,
And wouldn't believe that the
world was SO bad.
A respecter of men, a defender
of women,
Who believed the Divine, and in
that which was human;
Meek as Moses-he never was
understood,
And the poor man died of being
too good.
And he's dead.
There was a woman who never
had gossiped a bit
She's dead too;
"
Who hated all scandal, nor listen
en- to it:
She believed in mankind, took
care of her cat,
Always turned a deaf ear to this
story or that;
Never scolded her husband-she
,hever had one;
Nosluggard was she, but rose
with the sun;
Never whispered in meeting,
didn't care for a bonnet,
Or all the feathers that one could
put on it;
Never sat with the choir, nor
sang the wrong note;
Expressed no desire to lecture or
vote;
For the poor soul was as deaf as

RESORT and CITY are LINKED TOGETHER BY TELEPHONE

Telephone service. linking together city and country and shore,
is never more appreciated than during the summer months
While the business man is confined to his desk in the city, the
telephone keeps hin ia touch with wife and family, though they
NAV be many miles away, sunmering at some pleasant resort.
During his own vacation the business man relies upon the tee-
phone. He is free from care, for he knows that he can be reached
at one by telephone should important matters require his attention
in arranging games and outings with friends and ordering sup
plies from the distant markets.
All this is possible because Bell Telephone service is universal.
