FISH IN DEATH PROCESSION
Spawn, and Never Return to the Sea.

Nobody ever saw a Pacific coast salmon more than seven years old, although some spring salmon have been caught that weighed almost 100 pounds
 The salmon run in the rivers of Brit. lsh Columbia is a funeral procession. This applies to five out of six mem bers of the Pacific coast salmon fam fly. The sixth member is a small spe- cies related to the trout. The five other species visit the spawning grounds only once and then die The salmon always spawns in fresh water, as far up from the sea as it can get, near the sources of the river. The young fish agree with the current, and this accord takes them back to the salt sea.
 The salmon inhabits the sea until 1t Is grown-up fish and feels the strong influence of the mating instinct. This, like the sex impulse of the bee, is a message of death.
 Then the salmon mate and begin their nuptial voyage up the rivers to the spawning beds. It is no exaggera- tion to say that the beautiful fish in whose bodies life runs rich and strong, meet their death after a desperate honeymoon of struggle and suffering, which lasts only few weeks. They do not take food after they leave the salt water They are like the lovers in the Greek poem whose passion was so great they forgot to take nourish- ment and died of starvation, a TO- mantle death.

COTTON AS A NATIONAL ASSET

n.riro the last fiscal year the South
 ported p of raw cotton S610,00O,OO0 ,tb eNp There was also exported of NV.a ,4s, ,rodrcts over S76,0O0,000, mak- .0 .sa total value of exports of cotton ,s 1 its products of $686,000,0O0, or "o "r,4 nor cent of the total value of all evrorts from the United States. These ernres m indicate the supreme impor- .anoo of cotton in our foreign trade re- lotions for upon our cotton exports has very largely depended the balance If trade in favor of this country, and tbns the financial strength of the na- ton. :,
 Every man in every part of the land is virtually interested, therefore, in the South's cotton crop and it's mar teting. Last years cotton crop was worth with its seed, over' $1,000,000,- 900, and but for the European war this years crop would possibly have been worth still more.
 In round numbers we consume about 40 per cent of our own cotton in Amer ican mills. The consumption in South ern mills is now on the basis of about SOOO.OO0 bales per year, or consider ably in excess of the consumption of American cotton m all other Ameri- can mills. As Europe takes the other SO per cent of ear cotton with the ex- ceptiOn of the comparatively small amount shipped to Japan, China, Mex ico Canada and India. the entire coun- try has to face temporary discon- tinuance of these cotton exports. It is not, therefore Southern problem exclusively. but a national problem.
 It is probable that Great Britain, having command of the sea. will be sb'e to continue its imports Of cot ton on a reduced scale, but it is not at al probable that English mills can run to anything like full capacity so long as war continues. Nevertheless, every day in which the world is doing without cottoa goods a vacuum is being created which must, sooner or later be filled Instead of carving a large stock oyer. as they usually do, English mills will probably spin the last available bale on hand. Contin- ental mills, also, though most of them Will not be ale to run. win probably exhaust every bale they have. Thus. Whenever the war ends. all of Europe Will be bare of cotton. and, notwith- standing the poverty following the war; an enormous consumption of cot ton goods will be a necessity. It "ouid' therefore, be the height of fol- " injurious to the whole country and "'ally affecting every business inter est throughout the land, as well as in lurng the South, to permit the pres W' crop ot cotton to be thrown on the market at time when the foreign uenand cannot take much of it.
 cotton unlike foodstuffs, does not ls'erloate with time. Properly ware

The Prescott daily news., 1914-09-02

ton, it may safely be counted upon that next years crop will be very much smaller than this years. Under ordinary conditions the world could easily take this years crop at good prices. The world will. therefore. Whenever the war is over. have to fill p the great gap left by the non-con- sumption Of the present time. and the cotton which is carried over this year by the South ought, therefore, to com mand high price whenever it is sold.
 Southern railroads and business or
 anizations are even now making very active effort to encourage farr. CTS to diversity their crops and SO ar range to plant more foodstufs for next year. This, in connection with the economic situation as tc the cost of cotton production, will in itself have far cachng effect in decreasing cotton acreage, unless as said, some condition of unforeseen character should arise to bring about a big de- mand gt high prices for cotton, anl if that should come about, then the whole cotton situation would have been cleared up to the good of the nation as we'll as of the South.
 It is important that this country should fully understand that though the South's cotton crop including seed, last year was worth more than S1 ,000,- 000,000, the total value of its agricul- tural output was worth more than S3,000,000,000. This section can con- tinue to mako a rapid increase in di- versified farming to the very great profit of the producers 1t can in- crease its grain production, which it is doing, and also turn its attention to livestock raising, and according to the reports of the United States De- partment of a griculture the South is the best field in America for profitable livestock production.
 The entire situation, therefore, should be studied in the light of the following facis;
 1. Gotten is the greatest single asset of the nation in the mainten- ance of it's foreign trade.
 ?. Cotton is not more important to the business activities of the South than it is to :he financial strength of the whole country.
 3. The cost of cotton production is, by the testimony of the best informed men, over nine cents a pound on the average, and a very large proportion of the small farmers of the South can not make 1t at that figure, though, of course. some farmers make it for less than that,
 The conditions here outlined are likely to compel a large decrease in the cotton acreage next year, and should thus insure the ultimate mark eting of the stock carried over at a very much better price than it could be sold for if permitted to come on the market freely this fall and win ter.
 Everything, therefore. that tends to strengthen the cotton situation is vitally important to every business in- terest in the country. y.-Manufacturer Record.

"City fogs are more persistent than

"In consequence OF the above there
