wealthy parents to send their daugh-
ters to Wellesley than to keep them at
home. according to a statement by Miss
Alice Wamsley. Wellesley graduate.
who has made an investigation of coll
lege girls expenses
The testimony OF the richer girls as
to the relative cost Of their being at
college or at home is Of some value,
her report says Many Of them agree
that it is cheaper for their families to
have them at Wellesley than at home.
The saving is due mainly to the fact
that girls in college feel sufficiently
we'll dressed with fewer clothes than
would be required II they were at home.
The travelling and entertaining which
they would do If they were living at
home would more than equal the mon
ey spent for their college payments"

SEEK LONG STAPLE COTTON.
New England Mills Want Supply
From Southern Planters

New England cotton mills are trying to
obtain from the cotton planters of the
south dependable supply of long staple
cotton such as it is now possible to grow
where previously only short staple cotton
was grown. The mills are willing to pay
premium for this cotton, and the De-
partment of Agriculture through it's CO.
operative farm demonstration work is try
ing to get the southern farmers to meet
the demand.
Henry Lewis Sigourney of the Lyman
cotton mills has just visited the depart
ment after a trip through the south and
west and obtained the cooperation of the
bureau of plant industry in pushing the
work
The long staple cotton was among the
first of the important developments of
the plant breeding work. II. J. Weber,
formerly of the department and now of
Cornell University. developed a long sta
pie strain of upland cotton several years
ago. Where the community growing Of
cotton is carefully practiced, 1t is possible
to grow this cotton and keep it true, to
type.
Some of the New England mills have
had community growing scheme work
ing for the past year at Ell Centre, Cal
There are about 100 acres to be added to
the area in California this~year by seed
sent out from the depart There is
a community growing this long staple up
land In Georgia, but this Is not helping
the New England mills, as they take the
whole supply and want more.

THE DIME NOVEL.
Is It the Evil Influence It Is Said
to Be?

Charles NJ. Harvey. himself veteran
journalist and writer, with personal ac-
quaintance of nearly everybody of whom
he writes, has most interesting article
in our next Sunday Magazine dealing with
THE American Boy and the Dime Nov
ell which tells of the first contributors OF
the Deadly Dick style of melodramatie
literature. and the development of that
remarkable movement in fiction.
He closes by asking, What about the
morality of the dime novel? Does 1t glor-
fy crime and stir up the primitive pas
sions? Some of them do: but a good deal
OF the literature that we give young peo-
pie from Jack the Giant Killer to Rob
In Hood has to do with bloodshed and
the outlaws. And yet it does not seem to
me that they are harmful. In behalf OF
the dime novel 1t should at least be said
that it holds heroic and worthy deeds UP
to honor, Furnishes the villains. and does
1t right here in this world where the
readers can see the punishment. BY ex-
ample 1t encourages bravery. chivalry and
