Another Year.

A New Year! To many of us it will be a year of plenty if we do our part-if we but use our brains, and our energy, and our perseverance-if we use them in the right way.
 But will we do that? Will the right way appeal to us?
 Many of us have made the cus- tomary New Years resolutions, with the full intention to live up to them.
 But will We so live? Will the year be one in with we place right above all considerations ? Will it be one in which we place honor above gold. charity above greed, and gentleness above arrogance? Or will we plunge headlong into a frantic and gasping rush for the golden end of the rainbow?
 Will it, be a year in which our simple word is as good-or even better than our bond? Or will it be one in which we haggle, and twist, and evade, and con- ceal, and deceive?
 It may be the one. or the other. But which will it be? We mean well-but will we do we'll? Only time can tell.

Newspaper Space.

Very often people. in talking to the newspaper men, leave the impression that a newspaper can devote column after column to various things free of charge without any cost to the publish CT. Every line in a news paper costs it's publisher something. If it is to benefit some individual he may fairly expect to pay something. You do not go into a store and ask the proprietor to hand you out ten pounds of sugar for nothing. even though the grocer may be a personal friend and even though the gift may not be a large one. If the beneficiary of advertising does not pay for it the proprietor has to settle the bill. Nevertheless, many people cannot seem to learn that a news paper pays it's expenses by rent ing space. and that it is just as much entitled to collect rent for the space occupied as you are for the house you rent to a ten- ant.

EUROPEAN WAR SHAT.
 THRONE
FLEECY STAPLE MUST PAY RANSOM INTO THE COZ
 FERS OF WAR.
Nation Rings With Cries of
 Stricken Industry.
By Peter Radford.

A0ctuFrf rAfners OnOu.
 King Cotton has suffered more from the European war than any other agricultural product on the American continent The shells of the belligerentS have bursted over his throne, frightening his : subjects and shattering his mark cts, and. panic-stricken, the na- tion cries out God save the king"
 People from every walk of life have contributed their mite to- ward rescue work. Society has danced before the king; milady has decreed that the family ward robe shall contain only cotton goods; the press has plead with the public to buy a bale; bank CTS have been formulating hold ing plans; congress and legisla- tive bodies have deliberated over relief measures; statesmen and writers have grown eloquent ex- pounding the inalienable rights of His Majesty and presenting schemes for preserving the hnan- cial integrity of the stricken staple, but the sword of Europe has proved mightier than the pel of America in fixing value upon this product of the sunny south. Prices have been bayoneted, val ues riddled and markets decimat- ed by the battling hosts of the eastern hemisphere until the American farmer has suffered a war loss of $40O,OOO.OOO. and a bale of cotton brave enough to enter an European port must pay . ransom of half its value or go to prison until the war is over. Hope of the Future Lies in Ce-
 operation.
 The Farmers Union. through the columns of the press, wants to thank the American people for the friendship, sympathy and as- Sistance given the cotton farm CTS in the hour of distress and to direct attention to cooperative methods necessary to permanent ly assist the marketing of all farm products.
 The present emergency pre- sents as grave q situation as ever confronted the American farmer and from the viewpoint of the producer. would seem to justify extraordinary relief measures, even to the point of bending the constitution and straining busi- ness rules in order to lift DOT tion of the burden of the backs of the farmer, for unless some thing is done to check the inva- sion of the war forces upon the cotton fields. the pathway of the European pestilence on this con tinent will be strewn with mort gagged homes and famine and poverty will stalk over the south land, filling the highways of in- dustry with refugees and the bankruptcy court with prisoners.
 All calamities teach us lessons and the present crisis serves to illuminate the frailties of our marketing methods and the weak. ness oi our credit system, and out of the financial anguish and travail of the cotton farmer will come volume of discussion and mass of suggestions and finally a solution of this. the biggest problem in the economic life of America, if, indeed, we have not already laid the foundation for at least temporary relief.

More Pharoahs Needed in
 Agriculture.

Farm products have no credit and perhaps can never have on d permanent and satisfactory basis unless we build warehouses. cold storage plants, elevators, etc, for without storage and credit facili- ties, the south IS compelled to dump its crop on the market at harvest time. The Farmers Unions in the cotton producing states have for the past ten years consistently advocated the con struction Of storage facilities. We have built during this period 1000 warehouses with a capacity G approximately 100000 bales and looking backward the results would seem encouraging, nut looking forward, we are able to house less than one-third of the
