PROTECTION 0E WOUNDS OF
ANIMALS AGAINST FLIES.

When an animal is wounded,
it is important to treat the wound
in such a way as not to prevent +,
its healing, and yet to prevent
screw worms and house flies from
attacking the open surfaces,
laying eggs, or carrying infec-
ton to the animal.
The screw worm, particularly,
deposits eggs III wounds, ana
there are other flies that may
deposits their eggs in this way.
The larvae or maggots Matching
from these eggs infest the wound
and burrow more or less extern
siveIy in the surrounding tissues,
so that serious damage may
result.
The house fly alights on wounds
to suck up the eXudate, and is q
cause of considerable annoyance
to animals. 1t prevents wounds
from healing and may introduce
agents of infection which adhere
to it's body.
The department., in bulletin
on repellents for protecting ami
mails from the attacks of flies,
quotes the following formulas
for applications to wounds:

President Wilson's remarks to the representatives OF
the National Farmers Union instinct with the wisdom
of the trained economist. The President fully under
stands the magnitude of the crisis which the war has
brought upon the South and he also understands that the
entire country must suffer- if cotton continues to be
drug in the markets. In meeting annual Indebtedness
abroad we largely depend on bills of exchange drawn
against cargoes Of cotton, and if such shipments are
practically stopped gold has to be sent instead Unfor
tnatey this branch of the problem would not be solved
if the government undertook to impound several million
bales since the foreign Indebtedness would remain and
could only be met by placing huge loan in Europe AS
matters now stand such loan could not be placed IN
competition with the treasures of the powers which have
imperious needs of their And, If several million
bales were mpounded without placing foreign loan;
America would necessarily suspend specie payments tnus
drifting into financial chaos.
So far as "valorzaton" is concerned the record
tains sufficient warning Brazil tried the scheme in the
case of coffee with disastrous results Despite the most
strenuous efforts ruinous collapse occurred and the
republic was at last driven default the coupons of its
debt America is of course infinitely richer than Brazil
but the richest nations subject to economic laws 1t
must moreover be borne in mind that makeshft plan
is likely to the purpose for the war may be pro-
racted far beyond the present expectation and than
cotton crop may consequently have to be dealt with
The voorization of coffee worked we'll enough for while,
but fatal in the end By maintaining artificial prices
consumption checked and prospective famine was
turned into an actual glut.
Let us shun valorzaton and kindred schemes, be the
temptation what it may. Counsels of despair not
wanted at this juncture. Nor is it wise to adopt or
cure" methods. With little patience the problem will
solve itself; to certain extent Cotton will not remain
drug, for clothes out much faster in than in
peace. With the slightest revival of foreign demands
prices would approach the normal once more and cotton
would again be equivalent to gold In the meanwhile the
South well the rest of the country should set its

relief is quite possible for the government to support
cotton, but government establish an arbitrary
value.-Times- Picayune.
The foregoing from the Times -Picayune expresses
clearly the actual difficulties of the present cotton stua

The real remedy for the trouble is the determination

the 1915 crop will be materially reduced and the presen

WAS WOMAN OF GREAT CHARM
Empress Josephine Ono of the Most Remarkable Personases of He
 torlcal Record.

While the Empress Josephine had one million francs year for her pri- vate purse, it is wellknown fact that she was always in debt. and while this led to stormy scenes with Napoleon, and beyond doubt she had an extravagant wardrobe. it must not be supposed that she spent this sum entirely upon herself, as it is esti- mated that she supported more than two thousand poor peopfo in addition to helping many needy aristocrats who had suffered under the revolu- ton.
 It Is said that she owned several hundred hats and bonnets which were peculiarly becoming to her. and paid her hairdresser six thousand francs 8 year Of course. the preservation of her wonderful charm caused the spending of many hours day in her boudoir. from which all but . few favorite waiting women were ex- cluded So successful was she, in ad- dition to her own wonderful personal ity, that at the age of forty, and a grandmother. when arrayed in a sim pie white mousseline and string of pearls, her husband, exclaimed at her loveliness and said he would be jeal- ous.

 The report followed the announce ment from Washington that the BTU ish government would not regard COL ton as contraband of war.
 Bankers who are said to nave charge of the transaction declined to discuss the report. It was said, how ever, that the shipment would be sent, as several other shipments said to be arranged for during the last few days will be sent, by vessels clearing for Italian ports.

TWO METHODS OF BEGGING
Plausible and Polite Mendicant No Doubt No More Deserving Than
 His Opposite.

Like those of the Heather Chi nee,' the ways of the seeker after aims are peculiar. correspondent writes to the London Chronicle: Walking down Fleet street the other day. was accosted in the most casual manner by an individual who at a glance could be summed up as one of life's failures. With refined accent and in the most perfect English he apologized-while keeping pace with me-for intruding his company upon me uninvited. He would not beat about the bush. Through a conglom- eration of adverse circumstances (the phraseology is his own) he was desti. ute. For the moment he could not dig owing to his inability to find an allotment wherein to delve; to beg he was most heartily ashamed. but did 1t as 'dernier ressort.' Could spare shilling-not as loan. but as a gift. and help a lame dog over a stile?
 T could-and I did, against my bet ter Judgment. He accepted the gift in the spirit in which he had asked for It. I'm not going to thank you, he said; you know I would do the same for you were our positions reversed. Will you shake hands?' Further down I came across his antithesis. Siding up. with that crab-like slither which stamps the professional mendi- cant, he accosted me thus. Yer don't appen ter ave a bit of bread on yer, guv'nor, do yer?' I did not-and the curses of the disappointed one followed me till I was out of earshot! And I shouldn't care to have to decide which of the two was the more de- serving"

COTTON SITUATION
 LOOKING BRIGHTER
GERMANS BEGIN BUYING
DEMAND FAIRLY GOOD AND PRICES ARE HOLDING
 STEADY.

Memphis, Oct. 27.-Cotton prices in the belt held fairly steady yester- day under the stimulus of a rather good demand. Local sales amounted to 2,70O bales and sales reported from over the belt were large. A fairly good number of shorts seem to have put off filling their commitments un- til the last week of the month, and demand continues active from this source
 Some confidence was given the trade by the announcement that Eng land would regard cotton as non-con- traband, even when shipped to Ger many, while hopes that the loan pool would soon be in operation gave further stability to values. Mills seem disposed to do some business, but are held in check by the absence of a hedging market, the same trou- ble that is affecting buyers. The help lessness of the trade to care for their needs beyond the immediate moment but emphasizes the need of the reop- ening of future exchanges.
 The ginning report, giving the number of bales of cotton ginned ur to October IS, showed 7,610,000 bales the largest ginning to this date or record, except in 1911, when the gin. nings were 7,758,OO0 bales. With lit. tie incentive to get the crop out in 8 hurry the figures seem remarkably large, but it should be remembered that, owing to the drouth of the sum- mer, cotton this fall has opened un. usually fast.
