ECONOMY HINTS.
Reducing Gas Bill by Cooking and
Heating Irons at the Same Time.

Heating Irons at the Same Time.
When ironing over gas flame it has
been found decidedly economical to use
an iron lid over the gas under the
irons. When this iron lid is once heat
ed it retains the heat and the irons can
be kept piping hot with a slow fire
A way Of saving gas while ironing is
to cook over the same burner that
heats the irons When two irons are
kept continuously on the stove a fat
bottomed kettle can be placed over
them. and even with the interruptions
caused by changing the irons the con
tents can be kept at the boiling point
This is very important point when
cooking ham. soup and other foods that
demand slow boiling for many hours.

COTTON PRODUCTION
IN THE UNITED STATES

1911, S,215 in 1912, and 22,S3S in
1913. 1t has been reported that the
acreage planted to cotton in 1914 in
the Imperial valley will show a large
increase over that in 1913, while the
probable production is variously esti-
mated from $4,000 to 100, 900 bales.
There were 1929 bales reported as
glnned In Arizona from the crop of
1913. The largest part of this has
the same characteristics as that
grown in Egypt, having been propa-
gated from seed brought from that
country. The cotton is grown on irri-
gated land and the average yield is
nigh. The area to be devoted to
this staple in 1914 shows a large in
crease over that of 1918, the amount
being variously estimated from 49,
600 to $1,000 acres.
The Sea Island cotton crop of 1913
amounted to 1858 bales, or 29,-
$4,000 pounds gross weight While
slightly larger than the preceding
crop, it was one of the smallest pro-
duced since the Inauguration of the
ginning reports of the census bureau
in 1899. The average quantity of
Sea Island cotton produced each year
is equivalent to about 5000 bales of
500 pounds each. OF this amount
about $4,000 bales are exported and
$4,000 bales are consumed in this
country. The Sea Island cotton pro-
duced in the United States is grown
on the islands off the coast of South
Carolina, by planters who have for
many years paid the most careful at
tention to seed selection. The Sea
Island cotton now being grown in the
West Indies is said to surpass the av-
erage American product and COM
petes with that grown in South Caro-
lima rather than with the less valua-
Bile varieties grown in Florida and

For Dismission.

Georgia, Terrell County-Whereas
M. E. Jennings, administrator of Mrs.
n. A. Stevens, represents to the court
in his petition, duly filed and entered
on record, that he has fully admin
istered Mrs. N. A. Stevens estate,
this is, therefore, to cite all persons
concerned, kindred and creditors, to
show cause, if any they can, why said
administrator should not be dis
charged from his administration and
receive letters of dismission on the
first Monday in July, 1914. This

Georgia. However, the total exports
of Sea Island cotton from the BRUSH
West Indies for the year ending sep
TENDER 80, 1913, were only 4,3o9
bales of 500 pounds each.
Worlds Production of Cotton.
AS compiled from various sources
the worlds production of cotton IN
1918, exclusive of linters, measured
by the factory supply-that IS the
quantity entering commercial chan-
nels-was 22,225, 900 bales of 500
pounds net. This compares with w.
$4,000 bales in 1912, 21,269, 900 in
1911, and 16,241,000 bales in 1913.
The United States is the only country
which has provided an adequate sta
tistical service to ascertain the guam
tity of cotton produced ear year. The
governments of India, Egypt ana
Russia compile and publish estimates
from time to time during the season,
and it is said that the Indian govern
ment proposes to establish a system
of enumerating the bales at the
presses. In arriving at the produc-
ton in foreign countries it was there
fore necessary to rely on consular re-
ports, trade publications. special cor
respondence and other miscellaneous
sources.
Of the total world production Of
commercial cotton in 1913 the United
States contributed 60.9 per cent, In
dia III per cent, Egypt 6.6 per
cent, China "a per cent. and Russia
AS per cent. Some idea of the inn
portance of cotton production in the
United States from an economic
standpoint may be had when it is con-
sidered that, next to corn, cotton IS
the most valuable crop grown in this
country and that cotton is the largest
single item of export. The value OF
the cotton crop of 1909 represented
Is per cent. of the total alue of all
the crops of the country. The value
of cotton exported during the fiscal
year 1913 amounted to $547,357,195
or 22.5 per cent. of the total value of
all articles of domestic merchandise
exported during the year.

SAN NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. in
Nagasaki, carried in irons across the
Pacific on the United States trans
port Sheridan and thrust into San
Quentin penitentiary to serve three
years under name he could not
pronounce for a crime he never had
heard of, Albert Johansen, a Scandi-
navian sailor, was freed by the Unit
ed States district court.
On June 81 he must again appea
for the return of writ of habeas
corpus, application for which was
fled in his behalf, but in the mean
time he is free without bail.
The prisoner claims that he was
drinking one night in water front
saloon at Nagasaki. Three strangers
offered to stand him a treat. He ac-
copied. The next morning he found
himself at sea a prisoner.
He tried in vain to explain who he
was. but was delivered at San Quen-
tin as Peter A. Rogers, alias Peter
Grimes, to serve three years for a
sentence imposed by the treaty court
at Shanghai for forgery. His cell
mate CHANGED to be a fellow country
man and through him he got hear
ing.
,Johansen identified Rogers por-
trait as zone of the men I drank
with in Nagasaki."
The real Rogers served a year IN
San Quentin for forgery. When re-
