View Worth the Effort.
The view from the top of ''old Sugar

well repay them for their efforts. A
view in many directions and covering
an expanse of nifty miles could be OBJ

Looking east from the southwest

The mixers who stayed nearer at home
also enjoyed themselves as they hiked
through Arlington, around the radio
station and through Potomac Park un-

found a number OF hills to climb. many
wooded paths to explore. many heldi

HOV the War Affects Us,
LAS to Southern Agri-
culture.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

Cotton still occupies the place of chief
interest in the minds of those states
men and financiers who are endeavor-
ing to adjust American affairs to meet
conditions imposed by the European
war. On account Of cotton the south
ern states are more affected than any
other section Of the country, and as
this adverse influence is applied d.
rectly to the fundamental industry OF
agriculture the whole fabric of south
ern life Is involved.
Not only is there the great outstand-
ing question Of financing the present
cotton crop. but there is the related
problem of what the south will do for
1915. The most expert calculations in
dicate that the present world cotton
crop will amount to more than 15.0OO.- :
900 bales, whereas the world demand
for this year will hardly rise above TO-
100000, leaving a surplus OF s.OOo.O0O
bales which must be carried over into
next year.
Naturally the first thought is that
the south must reduce it's acreage OF
cotton end next year plant more cereals
and raise more live stock. If 1t were
could easily solve the agricultural
problem presented in this change OF
produce.
The trouble is that the southern
farmer spends his cotton before he

government or the banks will so influ-

wheat and rye.
| On the other hand, a complete cessation
Of cotton planting, such as suggested by
this agricultural paper, would mean that
next year cotton would be so high that
cotton textiles would have difficulty in
competing with other textiles
While cotton growers are demanding
that the government finance the cotton
farmers by direct issue of currency on
warehouse receipts. the attitude of the
government thus far discovered indicates
that reliance will be made upon the new
federal reserve board. For this reason,
w. P. G. Harding, on the cotton situa-
ton are extremely valuable.
In discussing the situation Mr.. Harding
said:
Cotton manufacturers must solve the
problems which have grown out Of the
closing Of the cotton exchanges of this
country, whereby they have been deprived
of standardized price and of their
power to hedge on contracts, and must
overcome the further difficulty occasioned
by loss Of confidence and curtailment of
credits, of financing purchases. Compared
with the prices that have obtained for
the past three. or four seasons, present

Sales Necessary to
Liquidate Debts.


OF production In recent years sales al
present prices would be in many cases
inadequate for the discharge Of these
obligations. SO that even If the pro-
sucer. being unable to sell his cotton
for enough to Ply his indebtedness
should turn it over to his creditors
many of these creditors would be in
a position to hold. and much of the
cotton will be withheld from the actual
market. The financing of the present
crop began with its planting last
March or April. 1t is the one crop ir
the south on which loans are always
freely made until 1t is harvested.
THE last four crops. including seed
have brought the people of the south
ern states gross average of nearly
one thousand million dollars per year
Of which amount about one-half has
come from domestic and Canadian
mills. and the remainder represents the
value Of exports to foreign countries
By the sale of this crop the south has
been enabled not only to discharge iti

ut is argued that the southern states
have produced a cotton crop which, added
to that grown
5000, 900 Bales More in other coun-
rI r,. tries, is under
present condi-
tions about 100000 bales greater than
is required for the worlds needs, and the
fear that this is true is causing much
apprehension in the south. There have
been predictions Of general bankruptcy
and ruin, and yet. regardless of all the
pessimistic talk and in spite of increasing
receipts, the price has advanced during
the last three weeks III to cents per
pound.
The cause is not hard to find. For
many years the south has been gain
ing in wealth and its farmers have
been growing more Independent. bet
ter methods of agriculture have been
troduced. marked progress has been
made in the diversification of crops.
large plantations have been sub
divided into small farms, and in many
cases the tenant farmer has become
his own landlord. There Is in every
normal year a certain proportion of
the crop which comes in early and
which seeks the market at any level
that 1t can find, which is commonly
called distressed cotton This is the
cotton that is now being sold at IN to
cents. and it would be well to bear
In mind that at these figures much
cotton will be withheld from the mar
ket Tor months to come.

money thus obtained he buys seed and
furnishes his tenants, II he has them.
or his laborers. II he hires them. The
result is that by the time the cotton Is
picked and in the gin from $50 to $44
has already been advanced on each
bale.
If cotton prices are low or the mar
ket does not readily absorb the cotton
offer, the cotton itself will not pay the
debt already incurred. The farmer then
has nothing to live on during the win
tter, and. unless he can get help, has no
hope of getting money enough to put
in another crop in the spring. 1t Is un-
doubtedly unfortunate that so many
cotton farmers should be in this condi-
tion, but 1t is a condition that must be
faced.
When the farmer goes to get his ad-
vance of meney he Is always met with
the question: How many acres OF cot
ton will YOU plant?' AS the more he
plants the more money he can get. the
natural temptation is to increase the cot
ton acreage AS result Of this credit
system many cotton farmers grow moth

buy all the corn and other cereals con-
surned by the farm animals as well as
