CONCRETE ADVICE FOR
GROWERS OF COTTON
To the Commercial Bodies Of the

To the Commercial Bodies of the
South
There is concrete suggestion
for the relief of the cotton section.
Please bring 1T to the attention of
the officials of your city who are in
terested
The United States consumes 401
of our cotton crop, and we see no
earthly leason why this should not
be increased so much that it will be
unnecessary to import much, If any,
jute from India. ].
Investigations should begin at
home and we were surprised at
finding that our own firm could In
crease its consumption of cotton
goods over 1907. To illustrate:
We have discontinued the use Of
liute bags for feed sacks, for burlap
covers and for bakers flour sacks,
and have substituted cotton sacks.
Therefore, the mill today is consum-
ing every "a hours bhe following:
(a) $500 worth of cotton flour
bags; lb) $500 worth of cotton
feed bags; (c) $500 worth of cot
ton covers for small bags; ID
$25 worth of COTTON bakers bags.
Total 1925 worth of cotton sacks
consmed each day.
Two weeks ago we were using
each day only the attitude market
"(a)". The result is startling.
Every jobber, retailer and baker IN
your town should demand that his
-four and feed come in cotton and
not in burlaps. The expense is a lit
tie more for COTTON but broad
minded mill figures that it is getting
its money back and more because OF
the increased prosperity enjoyed by
the cotton section.
Furthermore, sugar, FERTILIZER
grain. produce, etc. can just as well
be packed in cotton as in 'burlap. The
producer will use cotton if the job
Der demands it, so we say, 1T is
strictly UP to YOU Remember chat
this would bring the United States
consumption from 1910 of the total
crop up to 500. Surely it Is worth
striving for. Please have your
newspapers take it up.
Cotton mills are hardly operat-

SEVERAL BIG SHIPMENTS
OF Phosphate VIII Soon be Made
from Florida to England

John G. Anderson OF the Tampa
Coal Company. who has just return
ed from a trip through the phos-
phate mining section of the state,
says the phosphate mining concerns
are employing more men than was
the case short time ago, when a re-
duction of forces was made because
OF the curtadlment of demand for
rock caused by the European war.
Several big British steamers are
booked to come into port within the
next two weeks for large cargoes of
phosphate Of course, there will be
NO shipments OF rock to German
ports until the war is over, but the
demand from the British Isles and
Japan is picking up Tampa notes
in Tmes-Union.

The Overdress Popular Style

With this dress was shown a
charming Lutch costume of white
broadcloth. The jacket was made like
full Dor jacket, the fulness in the
back ripping in deep plates. The
collar, cuffs and band around the bot
tom of the jacket were curley white
lamb. When the jacket was removed
the dress underneath showed a short
jacket of blue broadcloth braided with
white braid. Around the edges was
an inch band of the fur. This was
worn over rather full waist. The
sgirt had the fulness disposed of in
pleats around the waist and when the
hands were placed in the cunning side
pockets and held away from the body
the Dutch peasant effect was most
pronounced. One almost expected to
see wooden shoes on the feet, but in
stead very modern white shoes peeped
forth.

bon, tied with long loops which were
wired, was worn in place of the COR
sage bouquet. The skirt was made
with double flounces each scalloped
with deep rounded scallops. Gold lace
edged these scallops. The skirt was
ankle length.
Full skirts were prominent. Skirts
made with cores which rippled out in
huge godets in the back The droop-
ed shoulder effect which was promi-
nent in the days of hoped skirts is
also seen.
A taupe colored velvet dress had a
waist opening in the back, perfectly
plain in the front but with plenty of
fulness so that it did not draw over
the bust. This waist extended from
a low waistline up into high collar
which wrinkled softly about the neck.
A jumper dress of dark green
broadcloth and velvet l have used for
brOadcloth braided in a simple but
effective design around the V neck
and deep armhole. The under-dress
and skitr is of velvet The waist
made with a simple rolling collar. A
fiaring velvet hat with single quill
for trimming was worn with this
dress.
The military styles which are fOs-
terder by the war was shown in a
suit of tan broadcloth. Down the
front of the coat were frogs made of
black braid. Brands of fur were used
for the mollar, cuffs and for band
around the bottom of the coat. This
costume I have used to illustrate.

Ideas from many periods were COM
bined with up-to-date styles to give
variety in the costumes. For in
stance the dropped shoulder effect was
shown many times with skirts to full
and ripply that they gavt the appear
ance of being over hoops. A dress of
distinctly modern silk and with the
newest basque ecect in front had a
real hustle! You couldn't mistake it!
Rich silks, brocaded, plain and
ribbed, chiffon, silk net, beaded net,
cloth of gold and silver were the ma
terial used for the evening gowns,
which were a prominent feature of
the exhibition.
Broadcloth, velour, duvetyne and
velvet developed the street suits and
dresses.
The skirts were full short, even the
skirts to the evening dresses. IncOn-
sistent as fashion often is in these
dresses they were sometimes short
and yet with train in the back!
One evening dress was made of pc
culiar green, almost peacock shade,
covered with scrolly design which
gave a watered finish to the material.
The waist was made with shallow
V in the front and high in the back.
| The skirt was short and slashed in
the front. In the back the skirt was
slightly longer than in front, but the
whole appearance was shorter than we
| have been accustomed to. From the
shoulder hung a long and narrow train
of beaded net, which did not touch
the dress any place but at the should
ers.

were seen as we'll as the short waist

of the low round neck was fastened
