COOPERATION IN THRESHING.

As threshing is now done in the
West it is too costly. The common
method is to hire a machine that
provides it's own threshing crew.
Payment is made on the bushel or
sack basis according to the locality
This may be a very convenient way
of getting the work done, but it is
too costly In the far west where
the wheat IS sacked, the cost Of
tnreshing and of the sack taken
together is about 13 cents per BUSH
el, never less than - cents. In the
Dakotas and Montana it is equally
dear relatively, except that it is not
sacked. This is a tribute which the
farmer cannot we'll afford to pay
when the prices paid for wheat rule
low, and when there is long haul
to market the grain.
But there is another objection to
the present system. When the crop
is very abundant the present system
does not provide sufficient num-
Der OF machines to do the work
with sufficient timeliness much of
the unstacked grain must remain
many weeks in the shock before it
can be threshed. Where stacking is
| not much practiced this leads to
loss, and when the weather turns
adverse as it sometimes does, the
loss is increased. At such times the
charges for threshing are also in
creased. This does not mean neces-
sarily that the thresher plumbers
the farmer. 1t is probably too
true that very few threshermen
make rich. But it does mean that
the wisdom of doing all the thresh-
ing with virtually hobo labor is to
be questioned. Surely there is a
better way.
Would it not be a good plan to let
the wheels of progress go backward
little to prepare the way for old
time practice? Why would it not
be good plan for several farmers
to combine and purchase a thresh-
ing outfit to do their own work
The number who may thus combine
will be guaged by the size of the
farms. Usually the cooperative
plan would embrace from three tc
six farmers. One of the number
would probably own an engine used
in blowing that could be used, also
IN running the gram separator
These farmers could buy machine
smaller and less expensive than the
giant machines now in use. Such
machine would be less expensive
to operate, and it would also be less
costly.
Think of the advantages that
would follow! The farmers them
selves could provide all the labor in
Guiding that of both teams and men
They could begin threshing when
ever they so decided. They coul6
prosecute the work until it was al
completed. Should the weather
prove adverse, serious loss need moi
result, for those farmers would be
in position to complete the work
at the earliest date possible.
AS diversity in farming progress
es, the need for such system will
become more pressing as the diff
culties from maintaining the pres
ent system will manifestly increase
, In farming the truth will hold goot
as in other things, that a penn.
saved is a penny gained.

TO HOLD TEXTILE
EXHIBIT IN SOUTH
BIG EXPOSITION FOR COTTON
MILL MEN TO BE HELD
NOVEMBER 2-6.
MOST COMPLETE EVER HELD
GreenviIle, South Carolina, is Making
eparations to Rival Boston's
Great Biennial Shows.

Charlotte, N. C.-Cotton mill super
ntendents and overseers from South
ern States who have been going to
Boston every other year, or wishing
to go, to inspect exhibits of textile
machinery and textile products, will
this fall have an exposition for their
benefit at Greenville, S. c., that prom
ISIS to be, for cotton manufacturers at
least, nearly, if not quite, as complete
as any that has ever been held in the
United States. Leading machinery
firms that are represented in Green
vile, Charlotte, Atlanta and other
southern cities, are cooperating with
Greenville's commercial interests and
the Southern Textile Association,
which is composed of mill men, to
make the occasion one of great edu-
cational and industrial value to the
general public, as well as to those
directly engaged in textile and allied
business.
Robert F. Bowe of Greenville, S. c.,
is at the head Of the exposition, and
w. M. Sherard of Williamson, S. c.,
is president of the Southern Textile
Association. They claim that as the
south is now consuming more than
half of the cotton manufactured into
cotton goods in the United States, the
mill men who have direct charge of
these vast operations should have cx-
positions of improved manufacturing
devices brought to convenient places
for their inspection.
The dates of the meetings and show
at Greenville are Nov. 2 to 6, inclu-
sive The exposition will be in four
departments: machinery and mill
supplies; cotton fabrics and finished
products; textile colleges and mill
village welfare departments; Govern
ment exhibit of South American fab

CAMPAIGNS OUTSIDE
BIG WAR THEATERS

In a score of regions there has
been fighting which would have held
worldwide attention were it not for
the mighty battle lines in France and
Poland
Servia's own war was greater trial
to her than either of the two preced-
ing Balkan struggles. Assisted by
Montenegro, the little Slavic nation
twice threw the hosts of Franz Josef
beyond her borders and inflicted
losses of about 100000 men, but she
suffered severely herself.
The Austrians invaded Serbia in
great force about August Is and pene-
trated to the Jadar river, where a
great five-day battle ended in the
rout of the Teutons.
The Austrians returned soon in
stronger force than ever They
reached Valjevo, where on November
II the Serbians met a defeat
With their supply Of artillery am
munltion exhausted, the Serbians now
had to retreat. The Austrians, be-
lieving them crushed, withdrew six
army corps for re-enforcements
against the victorious Russians in Ga
licia
Shells and English tars with naval
guns reached the Serbians, and on
December 5 they turned on the Aus
TRANS and cut them to pieces
The entry of Turkey into the war
was marked by a brave, but foolhardy
attempt to invade Egypt. Great Brit
aims Indian and colonial troops threw
the invaders back with heavy losses
British and Japanese troops invest
ed the fortified German port of Using
tau. China, and after a siege of few
weeks the defenders gave up the hope
less struggle.
A section of the Boer population of
South Africa revolted. The revolt
was put down by Boer, Premier
Botha. He then invaded German
Southwest Africa, and after a long
campaign in the waterless deserts
captured the greatly outnumbered
Germans July 81.
After taking three-quarters of a year
to arm herself to the teeth, Italy at
tackled Austria this spring. The effect
of the entry of Italy upon the arena
has not yet been marked.

COTTON CONDITION
IS BELOW NORMAL
THE GROWING CROP is ONLY 1873
PER CENT OF NORMAL
CROP.
DEPEND MUCH ON WEATHER
Outcome of New Crop is Altogether
Dependent on Favorable Weather
Conditions From Now on.

Washington.-The condition of the
growing cotton crop of the United
States on July 25 was 1873 per cent of
a normal, the department of agricul-
ture announced.
Conditions by state:
Virginia 70, North Carolina 70,
South Carolina u, Georgia rs, Florida
IS, Alabama II, Mississippi rs, Louisi-
ana rs, Texas rs, Arkansas 80, Ten
nessee IS, Missouri SO, Oklahoma SO,
California sc.
This years cotton crop will be ap-
proximately 11,970,O37 equivalent 500
pound bales, compared with 1884,
$50 bales last year. That estimate,
unofficially calculated, is based on the
governments condition report, issued,
and official figures of acreage and nor
NAL yield.
Whether the crop will be greater
or less depends upon growing condi-
tions from now until picking time.
In statement the crop reporting
board explained the unusually heavy
decline, which was five points dur
ing July, as follows:
1.-The extremely wet weather that
continued through much of June and
early July in most of the cottonbelt
left the plant rank and sappy, with
development Of surface roots rather
than tap root, and foul with grass
and weeds; therefore peculiarly sus-
ceptible to damage from the excess
sively dry weather that followed and
continued up to July 25, the date to
which the report relates. Cool nights
during a part of the period, and dry
winds late in the month increased the
damage
1.-THE effect of the lack of the usual
quantity and quality of commercial
fertilizer in the sections where nor
mally used has become apparent now
that the plant has reached the fruit
ing stage being most marked in the
sandy sections.
''The boil weevil in the older-in-
fected sections is not complained of
as much as usual, but in newly in
fected regions it is dong considerable
damage.
