FARMERS MEET TO
CUT COTTON OUTPUT
In Practically Every County
in Far South Meet
ings Are Held

San Antonio. Texas, Dec. 14.-In ev-
cry county IN every cotton growing
state of the south there will be a mass
meeting OF farmers today to make
plans to reduce the cotton acreage for
1872 These meetings are the out
growth Of the cotton conference held
at New Orleans and which was called
by Gov. o. B. Colquitt Of Texas At his
suggestion these mass meetings were
called in every county by the governors
Of the various cotton growing states.
The plan advocated is to bring about
a reducing Of 20 percent in acreage
next year in an effort TO keep up the
price. This Is to be supplemented by g
general selling agency, a system of
warehouses and loans to enable the
farmers to hold their cotton until II
brings what is considered a fair and
reasonable price.
To replace the acreage which will not
be planted in cotton, 1t will be 0dvo-
Gated that the farmers plant various
kinds Of forage and garden truck
Nearly everywhere that cotton IS grown
the various classes Of sorghum will also
grow. BY feeding this to hogs and cat
tie Il Is believed the land would pro-
duce even q greater profit to the farm

The American Girl
Her Best Insurance Is to Learn TO Be Useful
By THOMAS TAPER.

~ HERE are two great possessions
every American girl should Sc
n cure.
The first is health, The second is
the ability to earn her own living
Without the first the second is prae-
ticaIIy impossible, or not possible to
its full extent. Therefore, health should
claim her attention to the sane de-
gree that a delicate vet wonderfully
strong and efficient machine claims
the attention of the person that runs It.
After while she begins to under
stand the machine, to know what Il
needs what IL can stand, how long It
can be kept running without need OF
rest. what its peculiarities are, and so
on All this is not a matter of Worry
and nervousness, but of sane study and
reasonable care.
When the American girl understands
herself and her body IN this wise, she
will find ii a great and reliable servant
Then when she sets out TO earn her
own living, she knows that she can de-
pend on the body TO accomplish what
her mind tells her to do.
May Marry Rich.
But. mister, 1 may not have to earn
my living. L may marry rich gentle
man friend and live the easy life"
You may, Mayme Eileen, and you
may win out That is, there may always
be a nice balance on his check account
and he may be wise and protect your
future so that you VIII not want as
long as you live.
And then, again. he may not. There
are only two chances in this game. One
of these favors you, but the other is
terrible. If you had to cross a strip Of
water every day, with one chance IN
two Of keeping in the boat would you
learn to swine"
An Example.

Her father was rich and had 4 large
business She married the man she
loved. and he had a large business de-
pendent on that Of her fathers. She
had never worked, because she had
never had to. They went to live in
Montreal After the new home was all
nicely arranged and the automobile Sc
lected, her father failed. Naturally
that failed her husband. 1t was a bad
failure; one Of those complete wipe
outs that happen in the best Of fam
lies. The young husband took a Job
as clerk. and Mrs. - after saying
Roodby to the beautiful new home and
the automobile, tried her hand ut book
keeping. It went hard with her for
she had no knowledge of business. and
finally she gave 1t up-at the time

III and had to stop being a clerk. You
can picture their misery.
Another Example.
Her husband died and left her with
two children Her father took all
three of them to his home and being
well-tO-do, they lived comfortably. But
she saw in this easy life a poor in
vestment for herself and the little ones.
She was young enough to have an
ambition and active enough to work.
She kissed her father gOodby. took the
children with her 70 a town far enough
every day or two and opened a store.
She studied and worked and planned on
that store until she mastered it, and
thus reared a boy and girl who knew
depending on grandpa You can picture
their fortune ana success.
Stm Another.
Case No 8.
She was a rich girl until Thursday
mornings paper came to the breakfast
table. with her fathers picture IN It as
an absconder- The creditors took the
breakfast table and the dishes and the
rest of the house. and the young lady
began. at 26, to prepare herself to teach
school
It. was pathetic to see her struggle to
adapt herself to the work she had Sc
lected. TWenty-siX is late to begin
some things, particularly with the lack
Of experience in life she had. All her
habits were against her; so were her
mode of life her method Of thought
her point of view and her magma
ton. Especially the last She had
worked her imagination from a start
ing point Of life without responsibility.
To work IL the other way was as hard
for her as it is to run at a high speed
backward. But necessity is a cruel
taskmaster. and this girl hung on until
she actually won out She now sun
ports herself and her mother and is
probably happier in her own activity
than she ever was before. You can.
perhaps. picture her thankfuIness.
Learn Something
1t is wholesome occupation for a
girl, even if she be rich, to put her mind
on learning something useful Besides
the splendid mental training II affords
it insures her future if she is ever
obliged to support herself
She must take care:
]. To learn a useful employment: one
for which there is a demand
>. To learn il thoroughly. and nut
herself into 1t completely.
g. To realize to what extent If will
support her if she has to come to il
some day.

more than be does for e cook.
The Mother Question.
The kitchen and the drawing room
can take care Of themselves, but the
nursery IS another matter No incu-
bator can take the place OF a mothers
breast, no trained gOverness Is a sub
stitute for the brOoding mother love
OF even an ignorant woman, and when
there are babies IN q household every
thing should be sacrificed TO their
needs. They are a mothers career. and
they are her pay envelope
But this question OF the right OF a
woman to work after marriage is one
that should never disturb the home
circle. In the first place, unless q man
is able TO support a family so that his
wife doesn't feel the need Of earning
money, he has no right to ask a Wo-
man to marry him. And. in the second
place, II a girl hates domesticity and
isn't willing to give up her work and
make home for a man, she has no
right TO marry.
The only exception to this rule is
when a couple are broadminded enough
TO discuss the matter before marriage
and to have a thorough understanding
that each is 20 pursue his or her calling
