BILL TO PRVENT COTTON
MIXING AT PUBLIC GINS
Representative MetiIyin introduced
The Measure

Atlanta, Ga, July 14.-Representa-
tive Claude NJ. Methvin, of Dodge, who
edits a good'newspaper down in East
man when not here trying to help put
good laws on the statute books, has
introduced a bill of considerable merit
and Importance to cotton growers.
Mr. Methvin's bill is intended to pre-
tect the farmer at the gin, and reads
as follows:
From and after the passage of this
act, each and every individual, firm or
corporation operating a ginnery in this
state, and engaged in the business of
ginning cotton for the public, shall be
required to gin each bale of cotton PR
scented at any ginnery for that purpose
such manner that the owner of thu
seed cotton being ginned shall receive
back only the lint and seed from the
seed cotton carried by said owner t.
any ginnery for the purpose of having
same ginned
BE it further enacted, that any gin
ner, who in ginning any bale of cotton,
oooro+oe +bo ,,oobiporv of hi, or III nir
ginnery until all the lint cotton is cat
from the seed remaining in the breast
of the gin or gins in said ginnery ana
all of said lint is discharged from the
condenser thereof, shall be considered
to have substantially complied with
the requirements of this act"
My entire intent and purpose" said
Mr. Methvin discussing this bill, is to
protect the farmer who raises the cot
ton For instance you will take a suffi-
cient quantity of seed cotton to lie
ginned to any ginnery. Your staple IS
clean and will grade high, your seef
sound and first class. Another man
just behind you comes along with a
load of low grade SEED cotton, the
seed poor and half rotten. Before your
| lint has passed through that gin, the
poor stuff is started in, with the re
suit that your clear bale gets the poo:'
stuff mixed in it, l simply want 50

MORE CORN PLANTED this YEAR;
INCREASE IN SOUTH ATLANTIC STATES

Washington, D. c., July 11.-Corn
was growing on a greater acreage IL
states of the Southeast of the Missis7
sippi this year than last year whel
the record harvest of that grain was
gathered in the United States. Louis
lana reported an increase of per
cent in area; Georgia, Mississippi and
South Carolina an increase of 4 per
cent; Alabama, per cent, Kentucky,
Tennessee, Arkansas and North Carr
line 2 per cent. The acreage was the
same as last year in Virginia, while
in Texas it was per cent. below last
years area and in Oklahoma per
cent below.
The condition of the corn on July l
in all the Southern states was consid-\
erably above the general condition for
the country as a whole and was from
/ to 5 per cent better than the 10
year averages for the various states.
The first idea of the size this year
of the country's greatest crop-corn-
was given when the department of
agriculture issued its recent report,
showing the acreage, condition and es-
innate of the number of bushels of
corn which condition reports indicate
will be produced More definite figures
as to the size of the great wheat crop
expected to be the second largest ever
gathered, also were given, as well as
the first idea Of the size of the potat>,
tobacco and rice crops.

There is more Catarrh in this section Of the
country than all other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was supposed TO be
incurable. For a great many years doctors
pronounced 1t local disease and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced 1t incurable. Science
has proven Catarrh to be constitutional disease,
and therefore requires constitutional treatment.

Real Parcel Post Profits

New York Journal of Commerce:
Glowing predictions of the profit to be
reported at the end of the year as re-
suit of the operation of the parcel
port are now made by postoffice and
government representatives generally
1t is satisfactory condition, of course.
that the parcel post should have met
a real need on the part of the commun-
ity, and that in it's operation the gov
ernment should have earned sur
plus. The important question in judg-
ing of the matter, however, is not the
existence of a technical profit, but
whether the true cost was more than
covered in the operation. That it was
not must be the conclusion of every
one who considers the fact that the
railroads have not been paid for the
extra work they have done in trans
porting the mails under the new sys-
tenn. When congress has acted upon
the legitimate demands of the roads
and has provided funds for a years
actual conduct of the parcel post sys-
tenn it will be far more nearly pos
sible to register an accurate judg-
ment regarding the business aspects
of the parcel post.

TRAP HOLDS HUNTER
WHO DIES OF THIRST

Yuma Examiner: The remote fast
nesses of the Mogollon mountains
were a few weeks ago the scene of a
grewsome tragedy, the details of
which were brought to Silver City by
a cattleman who came in last week
from that section, and the story is
one that recalls all the cruel suffering
inflicted by the Spanish inquisition in
the old days. A lone trapper, whose
name even cannot be learned, caught
by both hands in bear trap, fought
losing fight against death, the de-
tails of which can only be surmised
from the Surroundings, but which
must have been terrible, even beyond
human Imagination. In the end death
must have been most welcome.
