business community. The spirit Of the
new Baltimore was exemplified by the
men who made the successful bid for
this gathering. They had such COM
petitors as Chicago and st. Louis, with
New York and Denver also in the run
ming. 1t was a certified check for
100000 with promise of a supple
mentary sum of $4,000 to take care
Of convention expenses which won for
the Maryland city.
Great Attendance Expected.
The Baltimore committee having the
fight in charge frankly admitted that
their chief reason for desiring the con-
vention was the advertising it would
give to Baltimore. That argues a pub
lie spirit which will go far toward
building a bigger and better city. As
already suggested. the citizens gener-
ally share this spirit and have thrown
open their homes in order that the
great crowds attending the gathering
may have ample accommodations.
Baltimore is in the midst of a most
populous section, and multiplied thou
sands are expected from New York,
Philadelphia, the Eastern Shore and
the south. With her reputation for
hospitality as pledge, Baltimore
promises to take care of them all.
As for the convention itself. that is
another story. 1t is yet too early to
make an intelligent prediction as to
the standard bearer it will choose. The
Democrats are frank in saying that
this will depend in some measure on
the action of the Republicans. Even
with the opposition ticket named the
Baltimore convention will have to 60
through an elimination contest, as no
candidate yet has the two-thirds ma
jority necessary to nominate. The ba-

RAISING Cats for Fur.

Several business men of South
Brooklyn are contemplating the incor-
poration of a company for the estab-
lishment of novel industry-a cat
farm-the first of it's kind in the
United States. It is the intention of
the men back Of the scheme to pur
chase tract of land out on Long
island about half mile square and
erect several buildings, the whole to
be surrounded by high concrete
wall.
Animals that produce fur for coats,
NUTS and neck pieces are becoming
scarcer each year, and cat skins are
much in demand by furriers, who
willingly pay good prices for them.

TO GROW EGYPTIAN COTTON

i After a number of years of eX-
perimental planting, there will be quite
an acreage of Egyptian cotton grown
in the valley this year, with good
prospects for adding largely to the
revenue of the farmers.
A dispatch from Washington says:
Egyptian cotton probably will be
grown on a large scale in Southeastern
California and Southern Arizona from
now on. Nine years of experiments
by the department of agriculture has
justified the recommendation that it
can now be tried on a commercial
scale by farmers in the irrigated sec
tions of the Southwest.
Egyptian cotton is special type
and an exceptionally fine product. Its
production is at present confined to
Egypt, where the average crop is
about 60O,OO0.000 pounds, OF this crop
the United States imports an average
of about 55,000,000 pounds.
'Dr. ChafleS ,. ScOneld, aSflcultur-
ist in charge of the experimental work,
has enough acclimated seed to plant
several hundred acres. This seed will
be distributed free 10 holders Of irri-
gated land in Southeastern California
and Arizona, and the government will
give all possible aid in the growing
of a successful crop.
The cotton has a long silky fiber,
and is especially favored by the New
England mills. 1t brings 30 per cent
more than cotton from the southern
states"

Up TO three years ago" writes
young woman, Il was in the habit OF
drinking coffee freely and did not
realize that it was injuring my health, -"
tea contains caffeine-the same drug
found in cOffee) till I was suddenly
made the victim of nervous headaches
so violent that 1 was compelled to give
up household activities and stay in bed
much OF the time. Then insomnia came
upon me and the Wretchedness of sleep
less nights was added to the agony OF
painful days.
This lasted till a year ago, when
was persuaded by a friend to give up
coffee entirely and use Postum. The
result was, in less than a week began
TO feel the change for the better. my
nerves grew stronger and I began TO
sleep nights Day by day the improve
ment continued and in a short time ]
was restored to health. Ny headaches
left me, the nervousness passed away
entirely, and / enjoy good, sound sleep
at night.
This is what I owe to Postum, and I
feel it but right to tell you of it."
