Although the United states IS the
greatest cotton-producing country IA
the world, a large quantity OF TINS
stpIe is imported from Egypt every
wear. The variety Of cotton most eA-
tensively grown in Egypt is known as
the Nit Affi: it has a soft, rather
crinkly fiber of q characteristic light
brown color that renders it especially
useful for certain classes of cotton
goods in which the natural color OF the
fiber IS retained.
The best Egyptian cottons bring q

finest goods. They are especially
suitable for merceriZing. taking this
process better than the native Amerl-

mixing with silk and for the manu-
facture of cloths in which Il high finish
and luster are required. In 1905 the
import of cotton from Egypt amounted
to 72,617,S93 pounds, valued at Sl2,-
101. 5000.
In view of the considerable value
of this import, the United States De
partment Of Agriculture is endeaNOr-

The rapid growth and hardness Of
the willow makes it almost invaluable
on the prairie. 1t is not always d
thing OF beauty, and it has the objec-
tionable feature Of shedding its
smaller branchcs-especialIy when the
tree gets old-an making q litter on
the ground. However, the prairie
farmer usually wants protection first,
and can afford to wait a while for the
beauty. The willow is about the only
tree which can give him that desired
protection in q short time.
The first planting Of willows should
usually be made III the form of a
Nind-break. To obtain the best re-
suits. two COWS Of cuttings should he
planted. about eight feet apart and
one foot apart in the rows. This
makes the plants closely crowded in
the rows, with plenty OF room betveen
the rows to cultivate: and for the first
two or three years they should he cul-
uNated as regularly as corn. The full
sunlight from the sides causes them

branches from the ground up. They

The lamp should be filled and the
