CATTLE WILL BE CATTLE.
Wilmington Starr.

Farmers would do well to ser
all their cattle during the winter and
next spring, as the prospects are thai:
a cotton crisis. The cattle crisis, how
ever, will mean big profits for cattle
raisers.
The supply Of leather, as we'll as
beef, will be short during the next
yea President John E. Wilder, of
the National Association of Tanners,
says this country has only six months
supply Of sole leather on hand. Al
most 80 per cent of the leather used
in this country is made from French
hides and calf skins, while Germany
also is depended upon for leather and
necessary analine colors. Farm and
Fireside makes this analysis of the
war situation:
eft means that in France, at least,
the farm herds are swept out of ex-
istence. It means that the same thing
exists in all probability in each of the
warning nations. 1t means that the
dairy products will be carce in Eu-
rope for years after the war is over,
that h local supply Of beef will be
obliged to await the building up of the
herds, that the breeding animals will
be imported from other countries. All
this ruin to the farmers of Europe
must be remedied by the efforts of
years. In the meantime we must do
our part in the matter of supplying
the breeding animals and the meats"
In the above there is a strong hint
to Southern farmers. Cattle of all de-
scriptions are bound to be valuable in
the mex few years, and surely this is
a good time for the South to become
a cattle and hide producing region.

GERMANY MAKING
TREMENDOUS GUNS
Guns Will Shoot From Twenty-One to
Twenty-Five Miles, and OF Twen-
ty-One Inch Calibre, is Word
Reaching New York.

New York, Oct. 13.-Adolph r. Gall,
an engineer in the Edison laboratories
here, who arrived today on the He'll
golav, said Germany was building a
number of guns which would make the
16-inch siege guns used against Liege,
Namur and Antwerp "look like bean
blowers"
The guns, according to Mr.. Gall,
will have a calibre of 1880 and 21.45
inches and are being rushed to COM
pletion at the Krupp plant in Essen.
"The new guns will shoot from 81
to 25 miles," Mr.. Gall said. t'The Ger
mans plan to s%upplant the present
batteries of 16-inch guns with these.
and then mount the old guns on the
battleships.
"'Then, if the German army has
captured Ostend and some other
points along the Channel, the new
big guns will be ranged there to hold
off the British navy and troop ships
In this way the Germans feel they can
control a considerable PORTION of the
English channel off Calais and Os-
tend. One shot from either of these
guns would demolish a dreadnought
cit is impossible to state how many
Zeppe1ins there are Many have done
excellent service. I know they run in
numbers from Al to Z-9S."
Mr.. Gall said he received his infor-
nation concerning the new siege guns
from friends in the Krupp company
plant, whom he had mel in a bus.

PROGRESS
ON REVENUE BILL
While Committee WrestIes With Mes
sage and Bill, National Politics
Are Aired ON Floor of the
Upper House.

Washington, Oct. 14.-Slight prog
ress was made by the Senate today in
considering the wal revenue bill. The
measure was under review as to eve
al features by the Democrats of the
adjournment of Congress early next
week were subjected to another check
by the delay.
While the committee worked on the
bill, the Senate was enlivened with a
political debate by Senator Penrose, of
Pennsylvania, and Senator Lewis, of
Illinois. The former assailed Demo-
cratic extravagances and denounced
war tax legislation as a calamity and
the latter defending the achievements
of the administration.
Senator Penrose asked the Illinois
senator if he could give any assur-
ance that a bill would be pressed to
provide for only n term for excel
tive officials, in accordance with the
Democratic platform.
81 understand the senator from
Pennsylvania has aspirations for the
Presidency" said Senator Lewis, "and
that be wishes to be assured now that
his opponent would not be Woodrow
! Wilson"
In their deliberations which extend
ed into the night, making a night ses-
sion of the Senate impossible, Demo
Gratis of the finance committee averted
considerable forthcoming opposition
by deciding to eliminate the proposed
tax on proprietary medicines which
would have yielded approximately ST.
000, 900 annual revenue. House lead
ers had given that this tax
never would be accepted and the Sen
ate had been flooded with protests
against taxes on "the poor mans med
icine."
The committee Ialso accepted an
amendment doing away with bills OF
lading in the express and freight ship
ment Of newspapers and to exempt
from taxation newspapers shipped
within the county of publication.
Agreement also was reached on the
long disputed az IN domestic wines
The rates proposed. in the bill, a.
agreed upon in caucus, were 20 cents
per gallon on sweet wines and 8 cents
on dry wines.
An amendment voted upon would
fix the rate at 8 cents a gallon on boil
sweet and dry wines and fix a tax o
55 cents a gallon on brandy used il

HARDING THINKS IT is
Up TO THE SOUTH
Prompt Action Must Be Taken by Sew.
eral Different States to Bring
About Desired Results
Addresses Alabama.

Washington. Oct. 15.-The South
must look to the resources of its state
governments rather than to Federal
aid for any real relief from the fnan-
cial stringency that threatens to fol-
low decentralization of the cotton mar
ket, in the opinion Of W. P. G. Hard
ing, a prominent Alabama banker and
member Of the Federal Reserve Board
In a statement issued here tonight Mr..
Harding urged that Immediate relief
measures be taken by the several
states to tide over a situation which,
he said, was now "becoming acute"
He made it clear that his suggestions
were not in the nature of an official
conclusions.
Mr.. Hardfng's statement was ad-
dressed particularly to the people of
Alabama, in support of the plan re-
Gently suggested by Senator Bankhead
for extensive purchase of cotton by
the state government, to be paid for
by an issue Of state bonds.
"What Is really needed is a MARKET
said Mr.. Harding, "and as there is no
adequate natural market for the time
being, the question reverts as to
whether an artificial market can be
created. Attempts have been made to
create such a market through the
national government, but it is clearly
impossible, both from a legal stand
point and for practical reasons for
the government of the United States
to aid either as a purchaser of cotton
or as a lender upon it as security
Much valuable time has been lost in
pursuing this phantom hope and the
sooner people abandon the chase
the better. If anything is to be done
towards creating an artificial market
such action must be taken by the
Southern states for themselves"
