Come to Rescue.

Cotton is king in the South Whether
we will it or not, his majestic sway set
ties the destiny of that great portion of
the republic
In Henry Grady's exquisite prose poem,
he says of it:
What a royal plant it is! The world
waits in attendance on its growth. The
showers that fall whispering on its leaves
are heard around the earth. The sun
that shines upon it is tempered by the
prayers Of all the people. The frosts that
chill it and the dews that descend from
the stars are noted, and the trespass of
a little worm upon its green leaf means
more to England and to English homes
than the advance of Russian army upon
her Asian frontier. 1t is gold from the
time 1t puts forth its tiniest shoot.
Its foliage decks the somber earth in
emerald sheen. Its blossom reflects the
brilliant hUes of sunset skies in Southern
climes, and puts to shame the loveliest
rose, and when loosing its snowy heeces

COTTON HAS MANY
And VARIED USES

Few people realize the many and varied
uses that cotton performs. Perhaps more
than any other product Of the vegetable
Kingdom 1t contributes to the welfare and
comfort OF man.
II clothes him in winter and in sum-
mer-in the torrid zone OF the equator
and in the frozen North. The native in
the jungle of the tropics bedecks him
self In flm Of calico to keep cool while
the explorer in the polar region pads his
duck suit with cotton and finds 1t warmer
than fur.
In the more temperate zones cotton is
the great staple for clothing. men. women
and children rely upon cotton for their
garb. Cotton clothing is worn both in
doors and out, at play and at work, in
fact 1t would be almost impossible TO
dress wen without cotton entering into
the costume.
But the uses Of cotton are by no means
confined to the making OF clothing.
Though It II true that the textile in
dustries consume the greater portion Of
Il, yet huge quantities of cotton are re-
quired for many other important manu-
factures.
Cotton ID one OF the chief constituents
Of the modern automobile. Without II
tires could not be made, for the basis
Of the auto tire Is the cotton fabric foun-
datioR upon which the rubber IL coated.
The deep. luxurious cushions that make
for comfort in riding are Of soft cotton
felt. Over 10000 bales Of cotton are re-
quired annually for the production OF
American motorcars.
The harvesting machines made in this
country require something like 100000
yards Of cotton duck every year for the
canvass feeders.
Trolley cars and railroad coaches need
over $4,000 bales every year for the man
ufacture OF plush seats. air brake hose.
upholstery. and enameled ceilings. In
the business world cotton sacks and bags
are replacing barrels and boxes to a large
extent.
In war times, as well as in peace. cot
ton Is indispensable. II IL the basis for
most Of the high explosives Of the pres

and many OF the newer death dealing
compounds are made from cotton Tents

Of cotton duck. A large part Of the uni
forms worn by the followers Of Mars
are manufactured from cotton. Not
only the familiar khaki uniforms Of the
summertime. but heavier garments are
made from cotton Weaves- Cotton over

materials In many armies.

and found in nothing else. Its meal is

'Tt is a heritage that God gave to this
people when He arched the skies, estab-

Would Depend Upon the South.
The world is dependent upon the South
to raise the feecy stable. II the world
We're well clothed, it could easily buy all
the cotton the South raises or can raise.
In times of peace there is a demand
for the South's product, which not only
takes money into the South, but which
insures the balance Of trade in favor OF
America. Nearly s5 per cent Of the cot
ton grown in the United States is ex-
ported to Europe. The horrible war has
made it impossible to export to those
countries consuming 1t a very large por-
ton of this So per cent; and in those
countries where the ports are closed the
call for men to leave the mills and go
to the front has greatly reduced the de-
mand for cotton. Moreover, the general
impoverishment which always follows
in the wake Of war, will lessen the ca
pacity for some time of Europeans to
buy even the common necessities of life.
Everything America raises to eat COM
mands a good market. Napoleon said
an army travels on its belly" The SOL
diers must be fed, but old clothes can be
utilized While, therefore, the farmers
Of the West and North have immediate
markets for their products at good
prices, the South Is hard hit because
people can get along without cotton
goods for a year or two without suffer-
ing.
Interests Every. Part of Country.
In this emergency, It is not only the
South that should come to the rescue
in buying cotton and cotton goods and
in making it easy for Southern farmers
to finance the cotton they cannot sell at
a fair price, but every part Of the coun-
try is vitality interested. The South Is a
big purchaser of everything manufac-
tured in America. II It cannot get money
for its cotton, 1t cannot buy manufac-
tured goods. If it can be helped to tide
over the present embarrassment, the
South will be able to buy from other
sections, pay its bills, and help the
wheels Of commerce go around.
In this crisis of the Southern farmer,
the whole country is interested; cotton
sale are being conducted and cotton dis
plays being made, and many women are
wearing cotton dresses who formerly
wore silk, and, by the way. II the women
Of the South were to resolve to use cot
ton in making their dresses-party as

fashion that would spread all over the
country. 1t would be one way to i'm

high cost Of living. The women are TAX

social habits and fashions that would be
dictated by common sense. Is II too
much TO hope that fashions will some

AS mas already been indicated
IN these articles, the time is at
hand when the railroads will
have to have a substantial in
crease in rates if the most of
them are to be preserved from
bankruptcy. 1t is their desire,
therefore, to make this added
burden upon the public as light
as possible-and they would be
recreant in their duty to the peo-
pie if they did not point out to
them the unfairness of the Full
