May 8, 1907, they gave notes to cover
the amounts. After the local option
campaign of 1909, when Huntington
was voted dry they refused to make
further payments on amounts pledg-
ed. alleging that the people had pre-
vented them from enjoying the con-
sideration for which the notes were
given and therefore they could not be

time. This law does not go into eff
feet until after the publication of the
acts.
There are 327 building and loan asso-
Citations in Indiana with 10000 mem
bers and assets aggregating about $780,
600, 900. Under the old law there was
no provision for examinations of thes e
associations except when a number of
stockholders filed a petition for an ex-
animation and gave bond for the costs
of the examination. OF course, such
petitions were rare and there were no
examinations of the building and loan
associations.
The new law puts these associations
on the same footing as state and pri-
vate banks, and they will be examined
on the same basis. Some of them may
show up badly, but this will be a good
thing for the state if they do.

however, within sixty days of the close
of the session of the Legislature.
No sooner had the session closed than
a boom was started to have Senator
Harry Z. CRUDE of Plymouth appointed
chief of the inspection bureau. Sena-
tor Proctor became one of CRUDE 8
champions and the boom, received other
good support until suddenly it was
blown away by a little gust of wind.
1t was discovered that CRUDE was in
eligible to the place because he was a
member OF the general assembly which
created the bureau and the position
which he sought 10 get. The appoint
ment would have been illegal. So that
put a stop to the CRUDE boom. Repre-
sentative John J. Keegan of Indiana
polls vas also talked of in connection
with this position, but the same rule
OF law that applies to CRUDE would
also apply to him, and this means that
Keegan could not take the place. Kee-
gan is a labor leader here, and while
he is brilliant and able man it is
natural to suppose that his selection
as the head of the inspection bureau
would be like Haunting a red flag il
front of the manufacturers whose
plants he would have to inspect.

For the subordinate positions there
is a fioek of applicants from all parts
of the state. No announcements will

There is also to be appointed a loco

ceive salary of $500 a year. Up to
this time only one application has been
filed with the governor for this posi-
ton. and that is from Kirk W. Pierce
of Logansport, an old engineer who
was a doorkeeper in the house. But
it is safe to say that the applications
will rool in from now on.
Another bunch of plums which Gov
ernor Marshall will have to distribute
is created by a new law which au-
thorizes the governor to appoint a
commission to visit San Francisco and
look into the advisability of Indiana
erecting a building at the Panama ex-
position which will be held there in
. 1915. The bill appropriated $4,000 for
the use of the commission. This will
mean a nice trip for a bunch of men

from the gin to avoid damage and the
consequent troubles arising over such
damage. He advocates the state and ma
tional governments cooperating to the
extent of establishing a cotton grading
school in the high school at each county
seat at each cotton county in the south.
He then went into a lengthy discus
sion of the legitimate American cotton
exchanges, claiming that the passage
of the Scott bill or similar measures
would destroy the hedging prerogative
absolutely necessary to carry on the
spot cotton business of the country,
which would destroy the American cot
ton exchanges and bull speculation in
America, while it could never reach
bear speculation in Europe, and that
such legislation would
l. Unsettle and completely revolu-
tionize cotton prices by making Liver
POOL the ruling cotton market of the
world.
2. That by depressing cotton values a
corresponding depression would take
place in all southern values, especially
land values.
8. That it would require ten times the
banking capital available at the south
to move the crop.
A. And finally that it would result in
the Capitalization of the cotton traffic
of America to the great disadvantage or
the cotton producer.
He read from the official record of
the congressional investigation showing
that some cotton spinners and all bears
are backing the Scott bill. and that the
same is class legislation in that it APP
plies to cotton and not to grain and
other agricultural commodities. Also
chat our congressman and senators are
being worked by the enemies of high
priced cotton, in that they think they
are conserving the interests of then
cons tituency. who having only a super
fetal knowledge Of the legitimate cot
ton traffic have asked for the passage
of the Scott bill, not knowing that it is
loaded.

ATHENS. Ca. April 22-Hon. N. t.
Blackwell, editor of the Cotton and Cot
ton Oil News of Dallas, Tex, addressed
the farmers and business men generally
of Athens and vicinity Friday.
He said in part:
/ address you as a cotton farmer and
a small one at that. There are many
things you should know about cotton that
you do not know because your interest
in your cotton ceases when you throw
lit off at the cotton warehouse. He plead
for soil conservation and diversihcation
as the only hope for the continued pros
perity of the south. He called attention
TO the waste in burning cotton stalks
which, contain 50 per ton of potash and
phosphate which should be returned to
the soil
URGES DIVERSIFICATION.
Continuing he said the present prosper
ity and independence of the south are
due more than anything else to diversif-
cation, which. of course has been at the
expense of the cotton acreage. 1t is a
staggering fact, but a fact nevertheless,
that a 100000 bale crop at 10 centsN per
pound viii bring $S25, 900, while a 49,
100000 bale crop at u cents per pound
will bring only $3.50, 600, 600. Every farmer
knows thai it will cost fully $50, 900, 600
more to produce the extra 100000 bales,
Whlch would rurtner reduce the net price
received for 100000 bale crop to even
500 100000.
Not only this enormous sum would be
lost,'s but corresponding reduction in
grain, potatoes, vegetables and other ag-
ricultural products must give way for
13.OOO.000 bale crop. and would there
fore be lost entirely. Cotton planters,
ponder these figures and diversity.
He urged his hearers to even pillow UP
cotton and plant things to eat if they had
neglected to plant some in the beginning.
BOIL WEEVIL WARNING.
In time he said the boil weevil would
reach Georgia and urged his hearers to
meet this pest and combat il by intelli-
gent cultural methods and poisoning as
his fellow Texans do, and that they
would be able to get along and raise
some cotton to divide with the boil wee,
vii as well. Hot sunshine he said is the
most deadly foe of the boil weevil.
He also called attention to the care
less slipshod method of covering cotton.
suggesting that same be carefully and
fully covered with heavy jute bagging

INTERESTED IN A SOIL SURVEY.

Of money to ask in the interest of the

can be appropriated or expended will
accomplish so much for the development

perity on the part of those who till the

judgment that the whole proposition be
pushed on the basis indicated rather
than to draw up separate bills.
