The cutting off OF imports of COM
mercial supplies Of potash salts as a
result of the war has stirred experts

industries The situation. as it affects
the farmers and fertilizer manu-

acute, as in past years the annual i'm
portations of potash salts have been
valued at more than s15.000.oo0. and
the United States has relied principally
upon Germany to provide this impor-
tant class of fertilizer material.
Potash salts are employed in many
lines other than the fertilizer indus

and soap making and in the manu-
facture of number of chemical prod

Perhaps if she had known she would

distasteful to Dorothy.
After Dorothy had gone away with the
Beldens Celia felt a sense of relief. The

THE EVENING STORY.
A MERE MOTHER.
Copyright. 1914, by W. Werner)

1t was a spring morning at Macart-
ney's and it seemed as If there would
be no end to the selling of hats. The
ready to wears were in constant de-
mand. Celia Bright had as many as
three customers at a time. and she man
aged to suit them all. She knew her
business. She had been selling ready to
wears at Macartney's for seven years.
Celia Bright was slender and prettily
formed. Her thick shining hair was sill
very gray. She had violet eyes and a
tinge of color in her cheeks. She was as
delicately. unobstrusively pretty and
sweet as small white rose. AS a rule,
Maeartney's saleswomen were smart and
good looking, and among them Celia
escaped notice from the average OBJ
server. But as a seller of cheap hats
she had no equal. Usually when she Sc
lected hat and set 1t on a woman s
head it stayed there. She was honest
and her judgment could be relied upon.
She was standing with hat in each
hand. considering a third which tired
looking woman was wearing before the
glass. when she saw girl coming
toward her through the wilderness OF
artificial cherry trees and vines which
made the millinery department place
Of enchantment. She was trinity dressed
in blue and was brilliantly dark and had
an air OF having walked in sunshine all
her life. Macartney's people. and some
who were not MacartneyS. spoke to her
and looked after her as she walked past
Celia herself could not take her eyes
from the girl. And as she Sazed her
patient face bloomed into an exquisite
smile of love and welcome MY

The girl glanced about impatiently.
oh, how busy you are. she said: Il
must have a chance to talk to you
In a minute, dear. Sit down and

Dorothy did not sit down. She stood
watching while Celia sold two hats.
why do ugly women always want to
wear blue":' she inquired fretfully. is
it because when they see pretty women
wearing it they think they will look the
same way themselves"
Il suppose So" Celia answered. Her
eyes rested with simple delight on the
young radiancy of her daughter. But
her time was paid for while she re-
manned in the store and other customers
We're waiting. What is it, dear??" she
asked anxiously.
Dorothy became animated "Oh, must
have a new frock. That's all We're
planning a dance for Thursday night
and I've nothing I want to go in. Has
the new lot of lace-trimmed voiles got
in yet?'
Yes" Celia answered. But can't you
wear your pink dress one more time,
Dorothy?"

Celia drew deep breath. She picked
up a hat and turned it round and
round in her hands. She was not,

To Aid Cotton Men.

The government is expected to aid the
cotton men in every possible way. but
it has been suggested that with large
part of this years yield destii ed for
warehouses it will be useless Tor the
planters to plan for full crops next
year. 1t was said today that suggestions
would be made to the cotton growers
that they plant cotton only on part of
the area hitherto devoted to 1t and to
try other crops. Economists here believe
that if this experiment is tried il may
prove of great benefit to the south.
Up to this time. they point out, it has
been almost impossible to get cotton
growers to plant other crops. but faced
with the prospect of no market or a re-
stricted one, the argument for diversified
farming may have added weight.
