THEN and NOW
(By Associated Press.)

Today the 100000 and more ocean
travellers who cross the Atlantic Ocean
every year. not to mention countless
millions who traverse seas in other
parts of the world are safeguarded by
not only the uniform rules whose foun-
dations were laid a quarter of a CEN
fury ago, but many new ones. Some
are to overcome new elements of dan.
ger brought about by new discoveries
in propulsion, and others to regulate
the use of new discoveries and inven-
tons serviceable in saving life at sea.
Under this head comes wireless tele.
graphy, and submarine bells. These
rules apply to all kinds of vessels,
even to the more than 100000 motor
boats that are estimated to be afloat
today in American waters. Since the
adoption of rules for ocean traffic the
ratio of wrecks was greatly decreased,
although the number of vessels has in
creased, and in most parts of the world
the seas have become so crowded by
constantly passing vessels that they
are almost congested. The largest
percentage of wrecks occurs among
the vessels dependent upon sails and
tickle winds. The total number of yes
sells of all kinds wrecked along the
United States coast during 1918 was
$50 in which $1.721,21 in value Of
ships was lostan So persons persisted

SOUTH'S ADVANTAGE
IN RAISING CATTLE

Washington, Oct. 16.-"There is a
silver lining to the cloud which hangs
over the market for cotton and cotton
seed products" said President Hardi-
son of the Southern Railway Company
in recent interview.
'One of the great advantages of the
south for the production of beef and
for the dairy industry is in the use of
cottonseed meal and hulls as parts of
a balanced ration for dairy cows and
for fattening cattle for market.
Under normal conditions a very
large proportion of the cotton seed
meal and hulls produced in the south
is xported-Germany, Belgium and
Holland being particularly large users
of these products. The war in Europe
will srea 'ly diminish exports to these
countries aid as a result prices OF
both meal and hups are now ibnormal-

were heritages of centuries back, and
in conflict with the rules of other
