THE COMING COTTON CROP

The July report of the Federal gov ernment indicated a reduction in the cotton crop of about two and one half millions.
 This ought to keep the price up to lOc, but no man can predict cotton prices pending the war; nor is there any assurances, if peace should come quickly, that the foreign demand would at one increase.
 The government congratulates itself that he farmers have followed "its repeated advice to reduce their acre age"
 We doubt if many of the farmers know what Inc Agricultural Depart ment at Washington recommended The acreage has been reduced by the farmers in accordance with their own judgement Of their own business. The wisdom of reduced acreage has been apparent to everybody. The bankers have insisted on a reduced acreage. and declined accommodations unless there was greated diversifcation of crops.
 1t Is the market that orders a re- duced acreage in anything. Last year, at the very beginning of the cotton picking season, the European markets closed, panic swept across America and cotton prices fell one-half. That fall in price is responsible for the re- duction of 15 per cent in cotton acre age.
 The benefit, we think, will be ap- parent to the farmer because those three or four million acres, saved from cotton, will be used in raising corn, and grain of other kinds, and grass. With crop reduced to less than IA million, it is reasonable to expect that present prices will be maintained. Yet every war movement seems to serve the bears with weapons and spot cotton has gone below cents.
 The planters have practiced econ omy in various ways. Certainly he has reduced his fertilizer bill; he has made his labor more efficient by a better use of agricultural implements; he has farmed under feeling of ne- cessity for better returns that will, we believe, make the present cotton crop one of the most proftble of recent years.

MANY WAYS IN WHICH
 SILOS SAVE MONEY

Twenty of the silo's decided advan- tages have teen compiled by R. H. Mason, dairynan of the United States Bureau of Animal Industry, co-operat- ing with Clemens College, South Car olina:
 1. By the use of a silo, a succulent feed may be provided the year round, keeping up tie milk flow of dairy cat tie and fattening beef cattle.
 ?. Silage is the best and cheapest form in which to provide this sort of food for winter use.
 3. Silage keeps catle in more thrif- ty condition than other feeds.
 4 Silage has beneficial effect on the digestive organs of cattle.
 ,. The same acreage devoted to silage crop will support more cattle than it would if devoted to hay or other roughage.
 6. The acreage for pasturage may be greatly reduced when silage is fed throughout the year, bringing more land into cultivation. '. Growing silage leaves land clear early in the season for fall and winter crops.
 s. The silage system helps main tain soil fertility and build up run down soils.
 9. On the same acreage, two cows can be kept by feeding silage at the cost of one cow fed on hay or other roughage.
 10. Siage may be harvested in wet weather and when conditions are such that other crcps could not be harvest ed without a total loss.
 II. Green feed in the form of si- lage can be fed in summer to great ad vantage in seasons when pastures have dried up.
 12. Feed storage in silos is much cheaper than hay in barns, because a ton of silage requires less than half the space re, uired by a ton of hay.
 13. An acre of corn can be placed in a silo for no more than the cost of shocking, husking, grinding and shedding.
 II. The value of crop preserved by using a silo is about 40 per cent. greater than that of a corn crop har- vested in the usual way.
 15. A given amount of corn in the form of silage will produce more milk than the same amount shocked and dried.
 16. There is less waste in feeding silage than in feeding fodder, because good silage properly fed IS entirely consumed.
 IT. Silage is very palatable and stock eat it with a relish.

DJSpOSAL OF WASTE IN RURAL
 DISTRICTS

The sanitary disposal of human waste is recognized as one of the most important problems confronting the modern municipality, the successful solution of which has required the ex- rise of much engineering skill and in qenuity. But for the rural communi- tv. the isloated farmhouse, the small settlement. where sewers and unlimit- cd water are as yet unattainable, what device is there that is practicable, that is at the same time cheap, simple and easily constructed and operated, that is fly and germ proof, that Is adaped to the conditions of rural life, and that farmers and dwellers in small towns can be urged to provide with some chance of success? These con- ditions are all essential, but they are by no means easily compiled with. That existing methods or lack of methods of waste disposal in rural districts constitute a real and serious danger has been demonstrated beyond question Hookworm, typhoid, dy- sentery, tuberculosis, as we'll as many forms of intestinal parasites are all spread largely through defective methods of disposing of human waste. Any real or lasting improvement in rural sanitary conditions must be pre- ceded by a radical and permanent re- form on this subject. This problem, always urgent, is becoming and will continue to become more important as our rural districts become more dens- ly populated. Bearing on the prob lem is the United States Public Health Service bulletin, recently issued, on Safe Disposal of Human EXcreta ' by lumsden, Stiles and Freeman. Af- ter general discussion of the prob lem and its importance, the various types of sanitary prives so far devised are discussed, the manner of construc ton, advantages and disadvantages, cost, etc, being considered in each case with illustrations and working plans for their construction Direc- uons are also given for converting an ordinary insanitary privy into a safe one, as well as directions for cleaning and for final disposition of the con- tents' This pamphlet, says The Jour
 nal ot the American Medical Associa- uOh' should be widely circulated among rural homes. The problem is he same in all parts of the country. Ncan be solved the ones still too com monly In vogue. The question is a Vl'aI one to our rural population.

OIL WELLS BREAK ALL RECORDS
Output for 1914 Was Over 290 Million Barrels-Final Figures Show Error of Less than Per Cent in Estimate of United States Geological Survey Made on January 1.

The production of petroleum in the United States in 1914 aggregated 290 312,535 barrels. Of this quantity 265, ,762, ,535 barrels were either mark eted or were utilized directly in field development and 24,550,000 barrels were placed in producers field storage to meet future requirements.
 The following table shows in detail by States and principal fields the dis tribution ot the marketed production, including fuel oil consumed in field operations in t914, to which has been added, for purposes of comparison the corresponding data for 1913. Pro- ducers' storage. particularly in Okla homa and California, attained propor tions so great and exercised SO marked an effect on the industry during the year that the data or the subject have been included as an index to he market fluctuations of the year.
 These statistics. which differ as to total above ground production by less than 1 per cent from the estimate made public by the Survey January 1 are the result of careful compila- tion of voluntary reports received from more than 14,000 producing, trans porting, and purchasing companies en- gagged in handling petroleum in the United States.
 With reference to the marketed pro duction the final returns show an in crease of l7,316,305 barrels, represent ing an increase of nearly per cent over the corresponding production in Il913.
 The average price per barrel receiv- ed for this was $0.S06 in 1914, com pared with $0954 in 1913, and the to- tai value of the marketed oil was S214,125.215, showing a loss of S23,- 0O6,173 in value compared with the previous year.

WORLD UNITED L S

We have previously commented on the manimity of approval Of
the presidents note to Germany against submarine warfare on
merchant vessels, without warning, as reflected in the columns
of representative newspapers of every state in the Union. The
same approval is now being voiced in every country OF the world
that has a written language, except in Germany, Austria-Hungary
and Turkey. That the allies should protest against such a. de-,
parture from civilized warfare was expected. They are biased
by their interests; But the neutral countries Of the world are n
more outspoken than even the allies. The sinking of the Lusi-
tania, with its innocent passengers. brought exp 11*Hio1 of of horror 3m,n
There was much criticism from Roumania, Greece and Bulgaria.
Now the South American papers have taken the question up, in

before in the history Of the world has there been such unanimity
of sentiment against the announced policy of a mighty nation as
is now manifest against Gelmany's submarine course, which it
attempts to defend only on the ground of extreme necessity. Even
little islands of the sea have joined in the chorus.
The psychologists who supposed that the effect of the sinking OF
the Lusiania would be to teIrorize the world were in error: 1t
