BAPTIST
REV. A. N. sTANFELD. PASTOR

All the services were well at
tended last Sunday and everyone
seemed to be well pleased, and we
hope they were benefited by com
ing out to the services. The ser
mon at the morning service was
devoted to missions. The way
those present responded in their
offerings to this cause, at the
close of the sermon. was real
gratifying. The Offering this year
is much better than any year
since the present pastor has been
serving the church. We pray a
special blessing upon each con
tributor, and also that the Lord
may use the Offering to the great
est good in reaching the lost ones
in the Foreign land with the gos-
pei of Jesus.
In the afternoon at , o'clock Mr..
Jas. G. Dyer, of Armenia, who is
in America trying to educate him
self, that he may return to his
native land to serve his people in
helping them to see the light of
the gospel, spoke to good con
gregation and made a good i'm
preston on all who heard him.
The regular evening service was
well attended and we believe
thet everyone present at these
services felt that the day had
been we'll spent.
We would like to say also that
we were glad to favor the Meth
odist people with the use of our
meeting house for their Sunday
School, while their own was un-
dergoing some repairs on the in
side. We are glad Of the good
spiritexisting between thechriSt-
ians of Washington. This is as
it should be.

SPRING LOCK MADE TROUBLE
Exceedingly Uncomfortable Hour
Passed by Housewife Acciden-
tally Barred Out of House.

A door key is a nuisance, but so is
a spring lock! Ask any man who
keeps late hours. and is at times for
getful in his habits.
Even housewives have had reason
to agree with this opinion.
One morning a woman followed
her husband to the front steps and
the door slammed when the night
lock was on and the KEY was inside,
and her husband had caught the car.
She was canning pears and had
put them on the stove to cook while
she was getting breakfast. They
were still cooking and would soon
be burning. The baby was crying
for his breakfast. She could not get
in. None of the neighbors could get
III. Somebody telephoned to her
husband, and perhaps it was not
more than an hour before be got
home with his key. An hour is
long time, and the pears and the
baby were in a terrible state. 1t
would have been better if there had
been a burglar in the house. He
could have turned out the gas and
have fed the baby, and he might
have opened the door.
A good, old-fashioned latch string,
always out, would relieve us of so
much responsibility and would be
ever so much safer.

AcEAuRY AGO.

One hundred years ago Paris made
its last gallant defense against the
allies. The engagement is known to
history as the Battle Of the Barriers,
and was fought for the most part in
the outskirts Of The city. The little
army entrusted with the defense Of
the city was heroically aided by the
National Guard, the students of the
military schools ana the citizens in
general. A desperate resistance was
made, but the result Of the battle was
foregone conclusion. The French
were in command of Marshals Nor
tier and Marmont, while Prince
Schwartzenberg- the Prince Of Wur-
temberg and Marshal Blhcher direct
ed the movements Of the allied
armies. Only after the enemy had
forced themselves almost into the
heart of the city did Marshal Mar
mont agree to caDitrlate.

INTRODUCED THROUGH ACTIVE

Washington. ID. &. April lO.-The at
%tention of the Department of .Agricul-
ture has been called To the very unsat
isfactory condition of a large part of the
cotton seed which has been reserved for
planting i'm Oklahoma and IN parts Of
Texas and Arkansas. Weather condl
tions during a large part Of the picking
season were unfavorablc and a large per
ccntage of this seed has been injured in
vitality. Unless termination tests are
made on all seed to he used for planting
purposes il i believed that many very
unsatisfactory stands will result.
The attention of the department has
also been called to the fact that an ac-
tive campaign has been undertaken tn in.
troduce into portions of this territory a
variety Of cotton which j. represented
a. producing fifty per rent Of lint. or
a five hundred pound bale Of cotton from
a thousand pound load Of seed cotton.
The departments representatives have
examined this cotton in the field. and
have grown il in experimental paintings
during the last two seasons. The lint
has been found 10 be- exceedingly short.
the large proportion Of lint 10 seed ap-
parcntly resulting from the fact hat the
seeds are very small and light. Ii has
not been found u heavy producer of lint
cotton per acre. The department has al
WAYS rcfraincd from recommending il
because il was believed that it, very
short staple would soon BE- recognized by
the mills. and that there would he con
segment discrimination against il.
During the past season several of the
largest cotton huying firms in Oklahoma
and Arkansas issued orders 10 their
agents not 10 purchase this cotton al any
price. They stated that its lint was -
far inferior 10 that ordinarily grown in
their territory that they knew il would
not be accepted by any Of their regular
customers. The department has. within
the last few weeks. received several let
tiers from planters ia Arkansas. asking
advice concerning this cotton. and stat
ing that the loyal buyers were warning
them against n because the mills were
discriminating against the localities in
which il j. being largely grown.
In view uf these facts the department
warns the farmers Of Arkansas. Okla
homa and Texas that the introduction Of
any new variety of cotton producing
fiber of less than seven-cights of nm inch
in average length will be likely Ia ser.
iously damage the RET tation Of their
local markets. and may result in "A few
years in ba>ing the price on this inferior
cotton. These same districts are now re.
~ceiying a slight premium over the reg.
nlar quotations for short staple. The
department will particularly regret "a
see the result II the campaign which has
