TO HEAR FROM FARM WOMEN.
Department Of Agriculture Seeks
Expression as to Needs.

What Is the matter with the farm
women?" is the general tenor of a
letter sent out by Secretary Houston of
the Department of Agriculture to the
wives of about $1,000 farmers, including
all the crop corresp ondents of the de-
partment.
1t has been asserted By some Of the
social economists of the country, not
women, either, that the Department of
Agriculture has neglected the interests of
the women on the farms of the country.
and the letter aims to get an expression
from the women themselves as to what
is lacking in their social environment,
and i'm what way the Department of
Agriculture can help them with advice
or other attention
The letter is aimed to form the theme
of discussions at the church and wom-
ems meetings, and it is hoped that
answers will be received voicing the
views of about 100000 farm women.

There have been no unusual losses In
the parcel post service, as has been ru-
mored, and no special committee has
been appointed to look into the matter,

the lock and to look into the advisable
ity of putting locks on fourth-class mail
bags and sacks.
This, it was said, had given rise to a
rumor that number of unusual losses
had occurred and had given the depart
ment some concern. The committee is
expected to meet this afternoon, probably
in the office of the chief post office in

NOT READY FOR STRIKE
German Socialists Doubt if
Present Is a Propitious
Time.

JENA. Germany, September 1.-THE
general strike as a political weapon in
the way it was employed in April this
year In Belgium and at earlier periods
in France and Russia was the subject
of warm and extended debate in the
socialist convention here today. 1t found
few friends as a measure for immediate
use.
The debate was precipitated by the fail
ure of the socialists to gain substantially
at the last elections for the Prussian
diet and the evident impossbility of their
doing so under the existing conditions OF
the Prussian franchise.
The radical section demanded today
that the Germans should start fight
on similar lines to those which were sue
cessful in Belgium. A resolution was
proposed by the central committee which
approved Gin principle Of such step.
but held that 1.-THE time is not ripe for
it,
The resolution was passed after sup
porting speeches had been made by
Eduard Bernstein, GeOrg LedebOur,
Phillip Scheidemann, Eduard David and
other leaders. DIR. Karl Liebknecht de-
clared that a political strike at the
present moment would be catastrophe.

in the suggestion that liberal lines of
actual cotton were being offered west
of the Mississippi river. The fact
that mill takings are far above re-
ceipts of American cotton, and that
business continues favorable serves no
speculative purpose. 1t Is the I'M
mediate situation which has the most
influence, and this. with an over
bought market. seems to point to a

The main argument against the

say, until September LIST, both spin

decided falling off. In the aggre-
gate exports since September LIST have
been 6,23o,00o bales. against $751;
600 bales for the corresponding Pc
