COTTON TO REPLACE UTE.

It is estimated by a St. Louis manufacturer of bags that if cotton were substituted for jutc ill the manufacture, for use in the United sates, of bags, wrapping cloths and wrapping twine it would require five to six million bales of cotton to re- place the jute now used in the manu- fracture of these articles. This new use for cotton would absorb the sur plus and make the proposed reduc- ton in acreage unnecessary. As the jute used in the manufacture of bags, wrapping cloths and twine is raised in India and manufactured mainly in Scotland, the substitution of cotton for jute would not affect home in dustry.
 It is believed that cotton could be substituted in most eases where bur

Rice sacks, which arc made of jute raised in India and manufactured in Scotland, now cost at wholesale about 15 cents apiece, as against about 10 cents apieces be- fore the war.
 Effort is being made to substitute cotton for jute in the manufacture ol "pockets for holding clean rice, Sam ples have been submitted to Amerl- can rice mills and it is believed that the cotton pocket may be substituted for those made of jute burlap, at ap- proximate!y the same price. If cot ton rice pockets are substituted TOT iute burlaps, it would mean the use annually of about 100000 cotton pockets, and if rough rice sacks can also be made of cotton about 6,0O0,- 900 would be added. This might mean the added consumption of 2o,Ooo to 25,O0O bales of cotton.
 If cotton were substituted for Jute in the manufacture of cotton bale wrapping, the substitution would ln- voIye the use of 150,000 100000 bales of cotton.
 If in every line Of industry using bags, stacks wrapping and twine the use of cotton instead of jute were re- auired, the consumption of cotton woud increase to such an extent that it would not be necessary to try to save the cotton industry by act of congress.

REDUCING THE SURPLUS.

One of the biggest and best moves to reduce the surplus of cotton re- sulting from the buy-a-bale move ment has been taken by the Grown Cork & Seal company of Baltimore, which has arranged to take up l2,OO0 bales, representing an investment o1 $500 900. While public-spirited, the Baltimore concern applied sound business principles to it's undertaking, which makes the benefit greater. The cotton is to be purchased at the rate of 4OOO bales each month for three months, and will be shipped Out of the country.
 The Grown cork & Seal company gets it's cork from Spain, and it aas arranged to pay for cork with cotton The company will ship the cotton from Sothern ports in steamers chartered for the purpose.
 The Baltimore company is helplnf the South, aiding it's own business assisting the cork producers ant helping the Spanish cotton spinners
 If every concern importing goods would effect similar arrangements pay for it's purchases with cottol hought at 10 cents, the cotton sur plus would soon disappear.

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO
 ST. JOHN.

CHAPTER 4.
 When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
 2. (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)
 8. He left Judaeo, and departed again into Galilee.
 4. And he must needs go through Samaria.
 ,. Then cometh he to a city of Sa- maria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
 6. Now Jacobs well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: ana it was about the sixth hour.
 '. There cometh woman of Sa- maria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
 s. For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat-)
 g. Then saith the woman of Sa- maria unto him, How is it that thou being a Jew, askest drink of me which ma woman of Samar1a: for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.
 10. Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have glv- en thee living water. Il. The woman saith unto him, Sir thou hast nothing to draw with,. and the we'll is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water? 12.

But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never I thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him we'll of water springing up into evermlasting life. 15. The woman saith unto him, Sir give me this water, that I thirst not neither come hither to draw. l 16. Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither. | 17.

 19. The woman saith unto him, Sir perceive that thou art a prophet. 1 20. Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusa- lem is the place where men ought to worship.
 21. Jesus saith unto her. Woman believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem worship the Father
 22. Ye worship ye know not what: We know what We worship: for salva- tion is of the Jews.
 23. But the hour cometh, and now lit, when the true Worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in | truth for the Father seeketh such to- worship him.
