census bureau, place 1t as the largest

with the exception of that OF 1911. At
the same time the estimate of the to-
tai value of the crop shows 1t was the
most valuable ever produced, 1t being
worth $1,043. 100000.
The quantity Of cotton ginned from
the 1913 crop. counting round as halt
bales and excluding linters, was 49,.
982,811 running bales. or 14,156.486
bales Of 500 lbs gross weight. Cotton
seed produced was 6.3O5.00O tons. of
which 4,575,50S tons were crushed.
The value of the cotton is estimated
at Ss87, 100000 and Of the seed $780,
100000.
An interesting feature Of the 1913
production was the crop Of the I'm

has been reported the acreage planted

was more than double that Of any pre-
vious year there. where commercial

Another feature was the production
In Arizona. where 2,299 bales were

that grown in Egyp,. The 1914 area
shows a large increase, variously esti-
mated at from 10000 to $4,000 acres.

SHIFTING SCENES" ISl
DELIGHTFUL new BOOK

The art OF the reporter is peculiar.
II brings Il man in contact with peo-
pie and events at moments of crises
when nature throws aside the re-
straiuts of society and becomes dom
inantly human.
Charles Edward Russell long ago
graduated as a reporter. In one in7
fluential capacity or another he has
been connected with all the great pa
pers of America. His words have
been flung of the presses in millions,
influencing the reading public far
and wide in its viewpoint ON national
events.
The Shifting Scenes tDoran) is a
recount of the history of his report
ing experiences. Here is vivid pic
ture of the midnight message which
sent him out to the Johnstown flood
the rickety bridge which crashed
away on the crest Of the flood few
minutes after their cross, and the
mad wagon ride OF one hundred and
twenty-five miles accomplished in
twenty-four hours which carried
them over two mountain ranges. In
those days a reported was not merely
scribe. He had to he man of
physical courage and endurance, of
ingenuity and resource.
In this book is told for the first
time the inner history of the politi-
cal campaign of 1892. Here are
stories Of the aparchist difficulties in
Chicago, tales OF lost ships. and panic
eridemlcs, pen sketches of vicinities
in the hearts of great cities which
are fast passing into legend.
The innate qualities which fitted
this man for great undertakings are
visible in These Shifting Scenes--the
history of the formative period in a
distinguished journalistic career.

ROOSTER DAY WILL Be
CELEBRATED IN SOUTH

In the interest of the infertile egg
the poultry specialists have started a
campaign for the elimination of the
rooster among poultry flocks during
the seasons between May / and De-
cember /. In this connection Satur-
day, May l6, has been set aside by
the people of those states as rooster
day in kentucky and Tennessee,
when every poultry dealer in these
states has agreed to pay the same
prices for roosters as they do for
hens and pullets. There is an enor-
nous loss in eggs as the result of the
fertile egg, especially during the
summer and fall months, and it is for
this reason the department recon-
mends that the rooster be kept away
from the hens during these seasons.
Fertile eggs spoil very quickly
when subjected TO the ordinary meth
DDS of handling on the farm and
when marketed during the hot sum-
mer months under adverse condi-
tions. lnfertile eggs will keep in
good condition in temperatures which
will cause fertile eggs TO rot.
1t is estimated that one-third of
the tremendous annual loss of eggs
Is due to the fertile egg.
The department specialist advise
that on the first OF May all male
birds be either killed. sold, or CON
fined until the first of Der. or
as late rs the first of January in
some localities. inasmuch as il is not
necessary to the laying qualities OF
hen that rooster be maintained in
the flock. Moreover, his presence
during those months means fertile
eggs. which mean bad eggs and the
consequent loss to the producer and
the consumer.
