FARLINGER SAYS
GIRLS HIGH IS
FIRE TRAP

Alderman Jesse NJ. Armlstead and
Councilman A. w. F'arllnger repre-
senting the General Councils School
Committee, Thursday described the
is High School as a mystic
maze" and claimed It woui be easier
to solve Chinese puzzle than to lind
ones way about the place unas-
sisted.
Wednesday survey OF eight
schools on the South Side was made.
and. though conditions somewhat bet
ter than thoss Of the North Side were
found, many improvements will be
recommended, The chief OF these will
be that the commercial High and the
Girls High School be located to-
gether on one site.
The committee de med this change
vital, and Will urge its precedence
over any other recommendation. The
combined seating capacity of both
schools was found to be 1893. Little
congestion was noticed.

THE stairs leading from the first

The court held, as in the case Of
Wright, manager of the Elks' Club
In Macon, that the Beavers CluS
manager. Pitts. had no actual part in
the alleged Illegal sale OF liquor in
or near the Beavers Club in Atlanta.
Therefore. he could not be convicted

Recorder was held to be In error In
refusing to grant a writ of appeal,
and the case now should go back

OF uniformity than the present method
of pulling samples from the bales.
Field inspection should precede ware.
house grading, especially with long
staple cottons. Familiarity with a
variety of cotton makes it possible to
recognize much smaller percentages
of admixture or degeneration than
can be detected in the bale, thus af-
fording greater degree of protection
to the buyer and manufacturer and at
the same time offering a greater in
ducement to the farmer to maintain
the purity and uniformity of his cot
ton.
Rests With Manufacturers.
1t rests largely with the commercial
world of manufacturers and buyers
to determine what kind Of fiber the
farmer shall produce today. Many
districts of the cotton belt, and the
newly settled irrigated regions Of the
southwest are ready and adapted for
the long-staple variety if the market
warrants its production.
The presence of the boil weevil is
now an additional reason for growing
,ong-staple instead Of short-staple cot
ton. The extra care and precautions
that are required to protect the cotton
against the weevil make it possible to
produce a better staple. Thus the
growing of long-staple cotton, to sell
at a higher price, may be considered
as a means of securing a return for
the increased cost of production or
the diminished yield that may be
caused by the boil weevil.
That the present system of buying
lis seriously defective is now widely
recognized, and radical reforms are
being sought through legislation and
otherwise. But it is highly desirable
that reforms in the commercial world
be considered in their relation to the
improvement vi INC Qudhty VI 'hN
crop and not merely to secure higher
prices for inferior cotton. There is
no prospect that such prices can be
maintained by any action that may
be taken in the United States. The
only secure basis for our cotton indus
try is in the improvement of the prod
uct. Otherwise, we remain exposed
to the danger Of foreign competition
| 1t is much more important to improve
the quality of our cotton crop than tc
secure high prices without such i'm
provement, since high prices for in
ferior cotton will only stimulate the
rapidly increasing production of low
grade cotton in other parts of the
world.

Superior Quality Cotton

oRMER DANGERS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS MUST
NOW DISCRIMINATE IN BUYING AND FARMER A MORE
DIRECT INTEREST IN MAINTAINING PURITY AND UNI
FoRMTY cRoP-MANU EAcTuRERs LARGELY TO BLAME
FOR QUALITIES

Washington, d. c., March 11.-Long-
staple cotton of superior quality can
be grown to advantage in many parts
of our cotton belt If the farmer can
be given a more direct interest in pre-
serving the purity and uniformity of
his crop. This interest will come only
as a result of greater discrimination
in buying on the part of manufacture
ers. Buyers must cease taking in
ferior mixed fiber and paying as much
for it as for the best and most uniform,
II they really wish to encourage the
production of long-staple cottons in
America. These facts are brought out
| in the Department of Agriculture's
new bulletin, "The Relation Of Cotton
Buying To Cotton Growing"
Formerly manufacturers have COM
planned that the supply of long-staple
enttpn was inadequate and uncertain.
says the bulletin. The boil weevil
was supposed to have made it almost
impossible to grow long-staple varie-
ties, but this danger has been over
come. New eariy-maturing varieties
of iong-staple cotton have been devei-
Uped. Improved methods OF culture
have made it possible to produce good
crops of this cotton in many parts OF
the United States, despite the pres
ence of the boil weevil Natural con-
ditions favor its production. and al
most unlimited supplies may be grown
if the farmers will only be encouraged
to take more care in maintaining their
cotton at a high standard.
Marketing Conditions Bad.
The manufacturers who use the
long-staple cotton have the key to
the problem. More general planting
of long-staple cannot be advised I'M
til marketing conditions are improved.
The Department of Agriculture's ad-
vice to farmers regarding precautions
necessary to maintain the purity and
uniformity of their cotton is OF little
value unless they can obtain a better
market price by observing these pre-
cautions. The present tendency to
buy long-staple cotton at fiat prices
like short-staple cotton discourages
the farmer from taking greater care.
On the other hand it encourages care
Iessness and tendencies that lead to
the loss of uniformity of fiber and
degeneration of varieties.
Inspection of the cotton in the held
affords a much better basis OF 1udg-
ment regarding the essential quality
