THE STANDARD BALE.

OF interest to every farmer in the
South is the fact that, effective Sep
TENDER 1, 1918, the railroads and
steamship companies will demand that
cotton delivered to them for ship
ment conform to a specific standard
size and wrapping. The new resolu-
tons require that henceforth bales
must measure by standard size Of
27x54 inches; must be thoroughly COW
cred; must not be wet, soiled or stain
cd, and secondhand bagging must not
be used
If any of these provisions are VIC
lated the receiving agent will so note
on the bill of lading A notation of
that character is a flaw on the bill
which then becomes non-negotlable
such a faulty bill is embarrassed in
securing credit, if he is able to secure
it at all. These facts had best be un
derstood at once, as the new ruling
affects the entire crop of 1914, and
, will, if disregarded, visit serious loss
and complications upon the growers
, of the South.
1t is time that some systematic eff
fort was being made to force uniform
ity in baling upon the farmers and gin
ners. Cotton, the most valuable item
on Americas list of exports, has al
ways been the most scandalously mis-
handled of the lot. There has been
little or no effort at uniformity or
securing even approximate cleanliness
in wrapping. The resultant 80 pounds
of tare to the bale, now deducted from
the market price, is largely charge
able to this condition. In the past 1C
years it is likely that this one item oil
tare has cost the South in the neigh
borhood of $45O,OOO,OOO, a clear loss
and one that is distinctly avoidable.

BISHOP QUINN. ON VISIT TO MA
TIVE LAND. ADVISES IRISH
MEN TO REMAIN AT HOME.

Jackson, Miss, Aug. 30.-Irishmen
would do better to stay in England
and not come to the United States, in
the opinion of Ri. Rev. John E, Gum,
bishop of Natchez. In fact Bishop
Gum goes further and says that If
it was in his power he would make en-
igration from Ireland a crime, so hurt
full does he believe it to be to the best
interests of his native land.
Bishop Gum is now on his native
soil, and while delivering a charity
sermon at Fivemileton, county Of
Tyrene, took occasion to refer to the
fact that on account of emigration
Ireland was suffering. He said that
America had been a fairyland to thou
sands of the Irish people, and they
sought to explore it, but the time was
past when such prosperity as one
proved so alluring was in evidence.
The bishop feelingly told of the bat
tie in Ireland for civil and religious
rights. and exclaimed:
And now when our fathers have
won the fight there is no reason to
abandon the battlefeld-to turn Ire
land to the outsiders to do its business,
to develop its industries and to possess
its soil. Now the Irish people have
fixity and ownership and instead of
enjoying their own they hurry to the
steerage to begin an unequal struggle
again as hewers of wood and drawers
or water"
After telling of the successful re-
suits of the struggle to put the Irish
in charge of their own domestic affairs
and of emigration even after these
great accomplishments he asks:
How long can ireland last if this
daily deportation. this running sore
this natural dry rot, sappng, running
destroying the brain and the Drawn Of
the country be not stopped?

is worth several dollars a bale more
than that handled under the present
system. Certainly that amount is
worth working for. The need of the
moment, however. is that the farmer
should realize the effect of the reg,i-

carriers. Unless they do the cost of
handling the crop, always visited in

Buttons are uSeu extensively ana

the skirt have frequently regular but

This keeps the length of the slash

military trimming of braid and but

sure to appeal to the woman who pre-
fers a jaunty style. A straight mill

coat.

Almost every sheer material has
been successfully utilized to fashion
the fichu, and it is made in all widths
and lengths, from the broad Marie An

of the bodice.
The more expensive fchus are of
rare laces or embroideries, while sim

new 1Ork, aug. oU.-U llId FASHION,
able women, who can afford to spend
small fortune for clothes every season,
do not wait with ordering their outfit
until the.season for which they are in
tended is at the door. AS a rule they
ahead of time. But, the women with
unlimited funds at their disposal are
greatly in the minority. The average
woman, with but moderate or, per-
haps, exceedingly limited means, can
not afford to take chances. She wish
es to be in style and, knowing from
experience that styles are constantly
changing, she is wise enough to wait
almost to the last moment before or
dering or purchasing her clothes for
the coming season. 1t is a matter OF
policy with them to watch out for
every indication of pending change
and to consider every point carefully,
as she cannot afford to cast her gown
or coat aside after a week or so, should
it fail to be in harmony with the pre-
vailing style of the day. 1t is to the
woman of moderate and limited means
that timely hints concerning the most
probable styles of the coming season
are most valuable.
1t will be we'll for her to remember
that, according to the opinion of fash
ion experts coats will be longer this
fall, especially at the back. The cut
away line with a three-quarter length
is the model that has been accorded
particular favor. In front there is
great opportunity for decoration. and
the most noticeable feature is the
waist-coats. This is either separate or
incorporated in the suit. 1t gives a
note of color to a jacket and allows
of so many novel touches that it vir-
tually makes the coat. The waist
coats are Of satin, all corded silks.

able pique Bindings of braid and
trimmings of buttons are the decora-
tive features and smoothness of fit
is essential for the effect.
The waistcoats of these fall suits
have square, pointed and crossed tops,
with inset crossed revers of lace and
satin MORE collars. Pockets are also
used for the comfort and convenience
Of the wearers.
On the fall suits there will be used
sleeves of the long. fitted type and the
lIimono sieve with the dropped arm
hole. The Elton effect, especially at
the front, is particularly striking.
From the front a sweeping line over
the hips and a long tail at the back
finish the coat.
A Russian model of velvet will bid
for applause. The peplum of the skirt
has considerable fullness. and rich fur
trims the collar line and the cuffs.
Braid and buttons give dashing ef-
feet to the line of fastening.
In the skirts of the fall suits there
will be many innovations. The long
line from waist to hem is rarely left
unbroken. Seams are modified by
tabs, extensions and flaps. Side seams
are slashed. There is drapery at all
sides, the folds around the top of the
skirt being the newest, and giving the
pegtop effect. which is characteristic
feature of the present fashion. Full
