Thus the South's gram 'l ~ tbis wear will exceed in value by sssOoO,OOO the total value ot the s4 ~. ro,nable cotton crop ever raised. T aEor the ten years ending with the ,,nomonal crop of 1913-14, ignor- tbe later crop by reason of war coalitions the total value of the cot ..n ,rons. including seed, was $9,35O,- moooo or an average of $935,OOO,OOO year. This years grain crop of an ..,otod value of S1,330, 100000 therefore, exceeds by $395,OO0,OO0 the average value of the cotton crops of inc South for the last ten years. This mo of the most striking facts in su thp notifications of the business Interests of the nation at the moment. "The total yield of grain in the South for the year aggregates for |uheat, corn and oats, 1,598,OOO,0OO hshels and adding to this 26,000,000 IMsbels of rice gives a total for the SOutb of 1,624,OOO,O00 bushels of gain.
 This is gain of 346,OO0,Oo0 bush es over the grain crop of last year, or gain of 27.4 per cent. The in- crease in the entire grain production oi the United States was 70l, 100000 Lr,hels, and of this 346,000,000 bush ts was in the South. Against the |Socihs gain cf 27.4 per cent, the in- crease in the rest of the country was ody 9ls per cent.
 The corn crop of the Southern States, based on the forecast of Sep enber 1, indicates a yield for this section of 1,24S,201 ,000 bushels, or ova SOl ,OO0,0O0 bushels in excess of last years corn crop.
 From every angle from which these facts can be viewed they mark a tre- nendous change in the South's az rrultural condition and give promise cf continued growth in diversified Pslmng, which will bring to this sec aon prosperity that it never knew n the palmiest days of the highest lnce of cotton continues the Manu- lecturers Record.

5oulogne, France, (By Mail "a
French artillery officer, who has .eeer
at the front from The beginning Of III:
war, has sent % Lne newspapers al
account Of the French a75v gun
WHICH he regards as the most sue
cessful all round piece ct artillery ii
use by any army.
THE feature in which the gan has
most consDicuously established its ST
periority, he writes, is in the ra-
pidity Of its fire. This to some ex-
tent depends upon the division Of Ia.
Dor among the gunners, but even
more upDl the mechanical properties
of the gun. The designer has so ar.
ranged it that no matter how the
weapon is pointed, thu force OF re-
coil passes through the exact center
of the beehe or arcbor. In the Ger
man gun, the force Is directed not at
the point of the beche, but at a point
to right or left of it, with the result
tnat the gun tends to be sleweG
around and has 10 be continually
aimed afresh.
A great virtue OF the French '7J
is the extent to which It resists de-
terioration. II you examine a French
shell that has been fired at the end oi
the past six months OF nard fighting.
YOU viii find evidence that the gun J
rifiing is almost as good and efii
cient as at the beginning OF the war.
This comes as a surprise to many
people who have heard OF the rapid
iiy with which naval guns deteri-
crate, but the conditions are, OF course
different, as the velocities needed in
naval work make an enormously
greater demand upon the naval gun.
"A great deal has been written
about the deadliness of the French
shell fire and the relative ineffic'en-
cs Of that of the Germans. Assum-
ing that The shells Of both guns ex-
slode the French shell viii have the

STANDARDS or SCHOLARSHIP

Two views are held among school
teachers and superintendents as &c
what shall be done with pupils who
fail to keep up The old time teach
er was rather inclined 10 pass them
along. The student it was argued
would lose interest if compelled tc
drop back into another class. He
had probably got about all that can
be had out OF that grade or stage OF
his work He will get more to let
him 90 on than he viii to make him
grind over the same work again
A few years ago there was vide
spread impression that good ath
iete could slip along through almost
any college. OF recent years, both in
colleges ana high schools, there
seems to be strlcter feeling about
scholarship requirements for ath-
letes
That many OF the colleges are now
imposing severe tests was suggested
by the news reports Of the past week.
to the effect that at Cornell univer-
sity, a44 men have been dropped asI
the result of tine mildly exams
Also 1863 others were placed on pro-
bation and denied many privileges.
! Probably some students do lose
heart on being dropped back Also
the better portion OF the class, who
are allowed to go on. make a distinct
gain By parting company with the
sluggards An indoleni pupil is mere

which he should have worked out for
himself, robs the rest of the class oil

compare their work with his and are
satisfied with a mediocre psrform-
ance.

when the shell Is off the ground. and
there is no hole surface rc protect
a possible victim.
our experience in the present war
seems to Show also that the French
shrapnel is more efficient than the
German. The bullets Of the rs shrap
nell shell weigh II grams Slightly
less than half an ouncel, whereas the
similar German bullet weighs only
nine grams Experience seems 10
show that ballet of at least eleven
grams is necessary to stop man adj
yancing. The effect Of ihe bullet is,
Of course, enormously increased by
the high velocity Of the Freneh shell.
Bullets Of our rs shra9nell strike at
velocity of 90 meters a second,
whereas those OF thhe corresponding
German gun travel at sixty meters
The energy of the two bullets is in
fact mathematically asout to / ial
favor OF The French.
From one general point Of view,
the German artillery has long stood
condemned in our eyes. In Germany
there has been for years divorce
between the artillrymen and the men
who MAKE the guns. Every improve
ment with he Germans has had to
originate from KrGpps. and there has
thus been a disastrous hiatus between
theory and praStice. VIII us it Is
different Our artillery has made
its own cans We have accepted inn
