these bags required 51,4SO yards of CLOTH
equal to the output OF the average cotton

OF st. Louis, and since approved by the Fed

The congestion can be relieved finally and
permanently only by increased consumption,
ana the European war makes it necessary. ir
consumption is to be enlarged, to find in this
country new uses for cotton cloth.
A Louisville milling corporation discovered
that it could Increase by 90 per cent it's use
OF cotton goods, and it has done so. Form
crly it used cotton only for flour bags; now
feed bags. covers for small bags and bakers
bags are all made OF that material instead
Of jute. Formerly this company used $500
worth OF cotton sacks day; now il is using
$l,225 worth where consumption amounted
last year to s1S0.OOO, this year it will be
S367,5OO.

They may cost little more but certainly the

1t is estimated that IL American manufac-
