HIGHER PRICES FOR COTTON
Statistical Position Points to Increase
In Demand and Consequent
Advance In Values.

The statistical position Of cotton
points to higher prices in midsummer"
said a former cotton man to a Bir-
mingham Age Herald representative.
The exports are not very far be-
hind the normal now. and this coupled
with the increasing demand for cotton
for the manufacture of explosives to-
gether with a strong demand for cot
ton goods for uniforms, will make the
'carry-over' of our enormous crop
about the usual 100000 bales. Cot
ton in Liverpool is lower than in New
York. but in Germany it is so per cent
higher than in Liverpool. The Ger
mans expect by synthetic chemistry
and agricultural means to provide a
substitute for most of the cotton used.
THE cotton goods trade is in q
strong, healthy condition, notwith-
standing the handicap of a short sup
ply Of dye stuffs. But even this is be-
ing in a measure provided against with
other coloring matter; then, too, the
use of white goods is becoming more
prevalent.
las to the growing crop it is too
early to quote figures except that a
condition of 81 per cent for Alabama
is good, but that does not relate to
acreage or probable size of crop. Last
year we made 1,75O,0O bales; this year
will probably not produce even 1885,.
900 bales as a rough estimate, all
things considered"

FROG IN BABY'S STOMACH
TadpoIe Grew and Waxed Fat on the

Is Dead.

The eighteen-months-old child of
Mrs. Harry Wolf of Chicago is dead.
following an operation which disclosed
conditions that many surgeons had de-
clared to be impossible, says a Goshen
Qnd. dispatch to the Indianapolis Star.
While visiting her parents in SYRIA
cuse, Kosciusko county, last summer,
Mrs. Wolf permitted the baby to drink
hydrant water Within a short time
the infant became sickly and lost flesh.
Treatment for Indigestion was given,
but it did not reach the seat of the
trouble. Then an X-ray examination
disclosed black spot on the stomach,
and an operation resulted in a frog
weighing more than half a pound be-
ing taken from the infant.
Doctors who operated said they be-
lieved that when the child drank n.y.
drant water in Syracuse tadpole was
taken into the stomach and that the
frog developed and lived on milk.
which was given the patient in large
quantities. Following the operation
the child improved rapidly and COM
plete recovery was practically assured,
when pneumonia developed, causing
death.

Matters S Especial Moment to
the Progressive Agriculturist

Many young man who never plays
cards believes in holding pretty fair
hand.
The fellow who says he would not
stand for a certain thing very often
falls for it.
Some men are so careless they don't
care what happens, so long as it
doesn't happen to them.
Talk over your plans and hopes
with your wife; ten to one she can
and will give you sound advice.
The farmer should be a warrior,
but his warfare should be against
weeds and not against flesh and
blood.
In our zeal for getting ahead let
us be careful not to step on anybody's
toes. There are few things so ugly
as greed.
1t has been said that the cities
would not last long were they not
supplied with new brains and vitality
from the farm.
Take an interest in your commu-
nifty. Do not allow some cheap poll
tician to run the township, and then
complain about it.
The horse that punches your head
with his nose when trying to knock
of. the pestiferous fly reminds you of
the need of fly net for his body.
The brush and weeds that accumu-
late about the place are but places
of refuge for the noxious insects
that prey upon the fruit and vege-
table life.

FIND HELP IN COOPERATION
Big Business Through Its Various Or
ganizations Fixes Prices Paid for
Farm Products.

/ talked with one of my neighbors
yesterday concerning the prospect for
the farmer. We drew a picture OF
business conditions, the way business
is run, and what the farmer has to
say about it. My neighbor stated that
the war has not helped the farmer,
says Kansas writer in Farmers Mail
and Breeze. Big business through its
various organizations has fixed the
prices paid for farm products. The
packers, even with large exports paid
only $3.50 a hundredweight for hogs
last winter. Hay netted the farmer
not more than $3.50 to SIS a ton. Wheat
sold for stiff prices but not before
the grain dealers got the bulk of 1t
from the farmers at not more than 70
cents bushel. | think l am safe In
making the assertion that not one
wheat raiser in fifty had bushel OF
wheat to sell when prices were at the
highest The farmer bucks" the meat
packers organization, the grain deal
ers organization, the hay dealers or
ganiZation and a dozen other combina-
tions.
The farmers are busy at this season
trying to put out their crops. The or
CARNATIONS also are busy at meetings
in offices fixing up plans to control
the prices of the crops produced. The
more demand there is for an article
the farmer produces the sitter is the
organized branch of big business which
controls that article.
Lumber has advanced $3.50 to So a
thousand feet. Corn is selling at gu
cents a bushel but the farmer has
none to sell. He is a buyer from the
grain dealers organization instead.
Even the railroads are trying to raise
freight rates on the excuse that they
are not making money. All this helps
hold the farmer down. This is the rea'
son so many boys leave the farm. They
think they can in some way work up
to be a member of the organization in
