The cotton buying side is difficult to
understand Last year, when the sug-
gested price was lowering around the
scent mark. and no cotton was NOV
ing. the buyers said that il they only
could trade in futures with no fear of
the law, the price would advance.
The immediate effect of the court de-
cision declaring the futures law uncon.
stitutional was to send the price of
cotton down almost Sl.50 on January
contracts. Now, why should futures
selling make good prices in 1914 and
low prices in 1915?

Football IL taking heavier toll
this year than last, perhaps for the
reason of the increased popularity of
the sport. Now and again efforts have
been made TO eliminate the rougher
features of the sport. and some good
along this line was accomplished when
the "massed plays" were abandoned.
Football. as played in American
schools and colleges. will always be
a dangerous sport. however. Until very
radical changes are made in the style
of play. Whether the game would
lose its popularity with these changes
is doubtful.

What the November Magazines Contain
Of Interest to Readers.

Here is how land can be freed of
stumps," writes Carlton F. Fisher in
the current issue of Farm and Fire
side:
1.-THE average stump a foot in di-
ameter occupies about 100 square feet
of ground. This ground cannot be
plowed or cultivated without snagging
your implements, shaking up your
horses. and destroying some of the
crop.
The principal ways of gettnfg rid
of stumps are with explosives, stump
pullers, large tractors and burning. or
by cosmbinations of these methods.
Fall and early winter are the best
times to do the work.
In select ng stump puller. the
best plan is to get one large enough
TO pull the mai ority of the stumps.
and then use dynamite to shatter the
larger stumps into pieces that the
puller can handle. This is cheaper
process than investing in a machine
large enough to pull all of the
stumps.
ms certainly Is the golden age for
the writer of fiction A few years
ego, magazines depenoed on such
features as their undertaking articles
TO lure readers, but these days it is the
quality of fiction offered which deter
mines the circulation. Perhaps this
is because the public is being satiated
with serious news by the war dispat-
ches in the newspapers; at any rate,
those magazines which are printing the
greatest amount of material designed
TO enable one to forget sober issues
like the war, are showing the greatest
growth.
of the all-fiction pu locations, The
Red BookMsgazine has established q
class for itself. rhe reason is apparent
from study of the current isssue-the

A day or two later Mrs. Fitxenstaatx,

when one Of the rubber strings sud-
denly quit the job and then something
kicked Peaches just where . good

When Peaches fell wounded on the

that something must fall with her so
she selected our new talking machine.

She was sitting on q Caruso, with
her left foot embedded in a TetrazEini
while fragments Of q Victor Herbert
medley nestled coyly in her hair.
Mrs. Gadfrey dropped in next day
about lunch time and told Peaches
that the only real way to reduce the
flesh is to take long walk; so Peaches
picked out long walk and took It.
After she was gone about six hours
and 1t was getting dark she called me
up on the long distance and broke the
news to me that. she had walked some
fifteen miles, and that she had beer

The next morning Aunt Louisa Milf

she had picked out the wrong kind Of

OF downtown for q rowing machine, a
set Of Indian clubs and sixty cents

That evening Peaches Jumped mer-
