Buy bale and let the farmer know

your pocketbook in the right place

And in making the purchase do not
forget to patronize the small farmer

to sell his cotton to buy supplies that
are actually necessary to relieve the
pressing wants of his family-State

We hate to say 1t, in fact It just
about gives us the bolts to acknowledge
1t, but we fear Bryans patriotism is
at low ebb on the buy-a.bale propo-
sition. Bryan should take care of two
hundred bales Of cotton on this plan.

Cotton is climbing. At the present
clip the buy-a-bale fellows at 10 cents
will have a profit within another
week. When that happens, If it
should, they will again have to show
their patriotism by not placing it on
the market.

The only way you can get many of
Bryan's well-to-dos to buy bale, will
be to have certificate under the seal
OF the court attached thereto, cert.
Tying that they will be able to sell II
for not less than IL Gems.

Miss Minnie Bangerter. with
the assistance OF other school
teachers, has just completed the
annual school census of the city.
1t has been found that there are
In the city approximately $500
school children between the ages
OF six and sixteen. This indi-
Gates an increase of one hundred
in the number OF school children
since a year ago. A ratio of one
to four is common for the pro-
portion of school children to 9TH
er people In any community.
This would show that the in
crease Of one hundred in the
number of school children really
means an increase Of five hun
dred In the total population OF
the city. The rapid increase in
number Of dwellings Is in keep
ing with this conclusion.

Washington. August i.-What a
tiny army when compared to the
great armed hosts moving in Europe,
is that of the United States, Is point
ed to by General Leonard Wood in
his annual report of the chief OF
staff of the army, made public to-
day. IL shows that the actual
strength of the army is 1902 officers
and $4,000 enlisted men, scattered
over the world, and the general de-
clares that TO maintain force within
the United States sufficient for even a
small expedition and the police work
Of the day, IL would be necessary to
increase substantially the regular es-
tablishment.
I" General Wood suggests that infan-
try regiments be brought up to 100
men per company, that some new
regiments be added, and recommends
IL additional battalions of field ar
tillery. There should also be seven
more companies of engineers, he
says, and some additional technical
troops as the Philippines, Hawaii and
Panama have greatly increased re-
sponsibilities, and adequate garrisons
for the positions can be provided only
by reducing the home army.
