THOUSANDS TRAPPED BY
 NEW NARCOTIC DRUG ACT.
Physicians and Druggists Fall Into Net
 Set by Harrison Law.

Some evidence of the effort being Harrison narcotic drug act is shown by the fact that the number of physi- clans and druggists so far arrested for alleged violations of it's provisions has reached into the thousands" declared Dr. R. R. Knees of the anti-narcotic bureau of the treasury department.
 "We are contending with two great problems in enforcing the law" the doctor continued. "One is the physi- elan. who will write a prescription when there is no necessity for his so doing, and the other is the druggist who sells without the proper prescrip- ton. Most of the arrests have been from these two classes of violators of the law, though, of course, some ped dlers of the drug have been appre- hended
 Under the present conditions, how ever every peddler must get his supply from some source over which we keep a watch, so that is q phase of the work which can finally be checked up, though not. of course. immediately in all cases One of the principal troubles now is that prior to March ,s when the law went into effect, number of druggists stocked up with morphine sulphate, CO., caine and other forbidden drugs and then failed to enter them all on their inventory. In such cases. unless we can get the goods on them,' they may dispose of large quantities of the drugs at fabulous profits through selling to persons who have no prescriptions, and perhlns even to peddlers.
 We are working the druggists against the physicians in the hope of checking up those who do not seek to comply with the spirit of the law. The druggist can tell, by the size of the doses. whether the purchase Is legiti- mate. If the drug is for an addict the doses should be gradually reduced. On the other hand, for an incurable, to whom the drug is given merely to re- lieve pain. the doses should show q mild rate of increase. as naturally to assuage the same pain the amount of narcotic must be constantly increased
 Our inspectors, of course, could de tect the filling of prescriptions at diff ferent drug stores on inspecting the narcotic prescription files of every store and would at once look into any suspicious case"

The September WOman's Home Con-
 paniOn.

The September Womans Home Companion, in addition to it's regular entertaining and practical features, contains thirteen illustrated pages about fall fashions. In fact, the is sue is called "Fashion Forecast Number"
 Grace Margaret Gould, the fashion editor, presents all the latest informa tion about fashions and at the same time interprets styles to average wo- men so that they can make practical use of her suggestions. Miss Gould adheres to her we'll known principle that in matters of style women can, by taking thought, be in fashion and yet not spend eXtravagant sums of money. It is her aim to show women exactly how they can achieve this end and she does her task with extraordi- nary skill.

in the price of oil and reports from Oklahoma indicate that the increase last week added about $11 ,OOO .OOO to the value of the oil now stored in that State, and at the same time greatly simulated the entire industry.
 Notwithstanding the stagnation in all industrial activities during last summer and fall, following the open- ing of the war in Europe, the im- provement in cotton-mill conditions in the South has been so pronounced that the consumption for the 12 months ending with July exceeded by 100000 bales the consumption of the preceding year, having amounted to o,l60,OOO bales, compared with 2,6OO.- 900 bales of American cotton consum- ed by all other mills in the United States. During June the consumption of cotton in Southern mills reached 3OO,OOO bales record figure, which, if continued during the coming 12 months, would carry the South's con- sumption to 3,600,0O0 bales.
 Reports form Birmingham show a rapid improvement in the iron and steel interests of that section, with a large advance in the price of iron, heavy sales for future delivery, and a return to work of some thousands of men who have been idle for a long time
 The imports of manganese at Bal timore from Brazil for shipment to steel works in Pittsburg district are increasing rapidly, and are now runn- ing at the rate of 10000 tons a month one vessel having arrived during the week with S200 tons, said to be the largest cargo of that ore ever re- ceived in the United States. A large number of steamers and sailing yes sels of American and foreign registry are now on the way from Brazil or loading in that country with manga nese destined via Baltimore for the steel works of Pennsylvania and the West.

PROGRESS IN COLLEGE EDUCA-
 TION.

There were 216,4 ,493 students in col leges, universities, and technological schools in 1914, according to the an- nual report of the Commissioner of Education, just issued. This is an in- crease of 14,262 over 1913. The bu- reau's list for 1914 includes 567 insti- tutions, decrease of 29 over the preceding year. States or municipal ities control 93 of the colleges; pri- vate corporations control 474. Men still outnumber women in higher edu- cation; there were 139,373 men in 1914 and 77,120 women, as compared with 12S,644 men and 73.5S7 women in 1913 Despite rising standards of admission and graduation, college enrolment has more than tripled since 1890.
 Receipts during the year totaled $120, ,257, of which $1S,422, 1856 was for endowment. Benefactions to col leges and universities totaled S26,- 670,017, something over S2,000,00O more than in the year previous. Six institutions received benefactions in excess of a million dollars apiece, and 45 universities, colleges, and techno- logical schools reported gifts amount ing to more than $100,000. In the past seven years the largest increase in income has come through State and municipal appropriations, and the smallest from tuition and other fees. State and municipal appropriations grew from $9,649, ,549 in 1908 to S23,- 400,540 in 1914, while fees for tuition and other educational services increas- ed from $15,390,847 to 2,504 ,529.
 The dominant note of the year in higher education, according to the re- port, was concentration, both in in- ternal organization and in relation to State authority. The movement in the direction of authoritative classif- cation gained momentum during the year, chiefly through the activities O. several voluntary associations. The juniorcollege movement has reached the point where several States mo- tably Wisconsin, Missouri, Virginia, and Idaho-have gone or record as definitely recognizing junior colleges in the educational system of the State. The Municipal University of Akron, Ohio, was added to the list of city universities, and the new Association of Urban Universities" established in the fall of 1914, lends emphasis to this municipal-university develop ment.
 Degrees conferred by colleges and universities included 26,533 bsccalau- reate, 5,249 graduate, and 749 honor ary. The degree of doctor of philo- sophy was conferred as the result os examination by 46 institutions on 44G men and ~73 women.

So ac- ve is the demand for ship-room that l Norwegian ship owner, who came \ this country six weeks ago, recent purchased five large American khooners and the same day chartered hem to load lumber at Southern ports pr the United Kingdom. the freight ] be paid as soon as loaded, and the btal freight for the one voyage ex- kedng by $30,000 the price paid for he vessels. Within a few days he bd sold these five vessels for deliv- ky upon arrival in Europe, making net profit in the deal of $100,000. he crowded condition of American hpyards and the activity in shipping nd ship-building is indicated in the bct that an Atlantic coast company bs just let a contract for a large (eamer to be built on the Pacific past.
 Coincdent with this improvement
 ship-building activities there are
 gns of betterment in railroad financ-
 k and construction work. The Sea

 hiway during the week let contract
 its double-tracking work on it's
 aln line in the Carolinas to the ex-

STANDARD WAREHOUSES;
 CONSERVING COTTON
Advantages to be Gained by Storing Cotton Under Proper Conditions When the Markets Are Unsatisfactory.

Washington, D. C., Aug. 13.-The importance of properly constructed storage houses which confirm to the standards recommended by the under writers association and afford ample protection and a low insurance rate, as means to help the farmer, banker and business man of the South hold the surplus cotton in times of over production or unsatisfactory market conditions, is emphasized in new bulletin of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, No. 227, entitled Got ton Warehouse Construction" Types of warehouse designed to command a low insurance rate and to minimize the cost of handling are described in detail. An earlier investigation, the results of which have been published in Bulletin 216, of the U. s. Depart. ment of Agriculture, showed that al- though the existing storage facilities in the South, if used could take care of an ordinary crop, few of them were properly located, many poorly design ed, the insurance rates and cost of handling high, and that in general there was need of a great change in taking care of the cotton crop from the time it is picked until finally marketed. The so-called country damage" to cotton is estimated al from $3O,O0O,0O0 to $75,O00.O0O a year. almost all of which could be saved with an adequate warehouse system.
 When properly stored and insured, cotton is considered by many to be one of the very best collaterals that can be offered upon which to loan money. Money loaned on cotton stor- ed in such warehouses should com mand a very low rate of interest. One of the primary reasons that farm CTS and business men have for stor- ing cotton is to enable them to bor- row money upon it until market con- ditions improve.
 The correct designing of a cotton warehouse is of much importance be. cause upon the construction of the warehouse depends the rate of in- surance charged for the cotton inside it. The average insurance rate, it is said, in the buildings now in use is as high as S2 year on S100. In r,+., <. tected by automatic sprinkler equip ment, this rate could be reduced to 25 cents on S100. It is curious fact that many of the warehouses now in use cost more to build than if they had been made to conform to the standards.
 A Reactionary.
 "These reactionaries, said Lewis Fisher, the progressive mayor of Gal weston, in recent address, "remind me of old Hiram Conway, the miller of Dee.
 Hiram prided himself on being conservative and he ground his flour in the old-fashioned way between mill>stones.
 "A brisk young chap brought sack of wheat to the mill one morning and stood and waited for it to be ground. As the stones turned slow ly and the meal trickled forth in thin and sluggish stream the young man said to Hiram:
 Hang it, MT. Conway, l could eat that meal faster than your old mill grinds it out
 "'Yes,' chuckled Hiram, but how long could you keep on eating it?'
 "'Till I starved said the young man Washington Star.
