LEARN TO SWIM

Ninety per cent Of drownings are
preventable," says DR.. l. J. Murphy,
secretary of the Minnesota Public
Health association.
"They are usually due to someone's
negligence" he continues, land the
teaching of swimming as part of the
physical education Of every child
should be encouraged"
Altogether about 10000 persons
drown in the United States every year.
II town of 10000 persons was wiped
out annually, something would be
done to stop the repetition of such a
calamity. But the drownings are scat
tered and attract little permanent at
tention.
Learning to swim is not a guarantee
against drowning, but good swimmers
generally use more judgment in boats
and while bathing in deep water than
those who have never learned and are
ignorant Of the danger.

"MorHER's SONGS"

mOI TEN = oSNSS
Mothers voice is low and sweet,
AS she rocks her babe to sleep:
Twilight shadows creep along
While she sings her cradle song;
And now we hear
Hush, my dear, lie still and slumber;
Holy angels guard thy bed.
Now the child has older grown,
Quite boy, he walks alone;
But the loving mother keeps,
Watch DER him while he sleeps.
And now we hear
How gentle God commands!
How kind His precepts are!
Come, cast your burdens on the Lord,
And trust His constant care.
See the boy in manhood stand,
Fighting for his native land;
Over all this broad domain $780,"
Shall the Stars and Stripes remain,
And now we hear
My country, It's of thee,
Sweet land of liberty. -.-.
OF thee sing;
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrims pride.
From every mountain side,
Let freedom ring.
Peaceful glides her life along;
Still she sings her evening song;
While her lov'd ones gather near.
Hark to mothers tones so dear,
And now we hear
Home, home, sweet home,
Be it ever so humble, there's no place
like home.
Mrs. William Annerman.

Farming has always been a hazard
GUS business. Fire and frost and food !;
wind and hail and drought; blight and
the hordes of insect enemies, have de-
stroyed the crops since man began till
ing the soil. Yet with all it's hazards,
farming is perhaps the most stable
and substantial of all businesses.
They say that 80 per cent of the mer.
chants fail. We have always suspect.
ed those statistics, but certainly a
much smaller proportion of farmers
are sold out under the hammer.

FURTHER REACTION
IN COTTON MARKET
Pressure From Professional
Sources Causes More
Liquidation.
SPOT MARKETS EASIER

Rearish operations we're responsible
for bringing about a further liquidation
in cotton yesterday. Before the close
some of the long lines which had been
held throughout the advance were
dumped overheard with view to pre-
venting these commitments from run
ming into loss. The professional
element. which had been fighting the
advancing tendency for some time. had
an inning yesterday and hammered per-
sistently in an effort to shake out scat
tered long holdings.
There is n disposition throughout the
trade to believe that the market In now
= two sided AFFAIR and that 1t will re-
main a scalping proposition until some
new incentive comes or good break has
made the market safe from n speculative
standpoint.
Considerable interest Ia being taken in
the dyestuff situation. although II Is be-
lieved that considerable exaggeration
mas been INDUCED in. No one for in
stance believes that 100000 operatives
are going TO be idle within the next
two months II dyestuffs are not shipped
from Germany or elsewhere. II IL evil
IDENTIFY true that unless the shortage Is
relieved before the first of July there
will be some curtailment. although not
OF the wholesale character suggested.
The following interesting statement
appears In the jackson. Miss. cor
respondence Of the Mobile Register {:
secretary OF State Bryan has advised
the board of penitentiary trustees that
the cotton shipment contemplated from
Gufport to Copenhagen. would come
under the embargo declared by England.
inasmuch as the cotton. although con-
signed to Denmark, would eventually be
shipped to Germany. On account OF this
the trustees of the State penitentiary
will consider the matter very carefully
tomorrow and It may be that the $500
bales of cotton sent to Gulfport to be
loaded into the steamship Huso will re-
main in America"
quite a number OF advices were re-
ceived yesterday stating that spot de-
mand had fallen of. These messages
came from both port and interior towns.
Exports yesterday picked up consid-
erably. with clearances of $1,000 bales.
The total is now over 100000 bales.
