DON'T CUSS, REGISTER.

A whole lot of farm ers are vigor-
ously cussing the last legislature for
passing the law requiring registra-
ton in the country precincts. They
have reason to be annoyed and angry
because this unnecessary inconveni-
ence has been saddled upon them.
will not accomplish anything. The
thing to do is to register and thereby
fool the gentlemen who thought that
they could weaken the voting
strength of the farmers by putting
them to the trouble of registering.
Two men were once walking along a
levee watching the water in rapidly
raising river when they came across
a small leak in the embankment
which was constantly growing larger
Damn it, exclaimed one of them as
he stood in impotent fear and rage.
Dam it, shouted the other as he
went vigorously to work stopping the
leak.
Country voters can not protect
themselves by damning the law
which requires them to register
They can protect themselves by reg
stering.
1t is worth while taking a good
deal of time and trouble to thwart
the plans of the liquor forces, the
machine politicians and the Stop
Look-Listen league. The only kind
of cussing which affects these gen.
tlemen is cussing with ballots. They
don't care what a man says about
them, if he cant vote. They are
after results. They want to make it
as difficult as possible to secure sig
natures on initiative and referendum
petitions. They want to reduce the
influence of the farmers in selecting
candidates and electing officials.
They recognize that it was the farm
vote which placed Washington in the
dry column. They know that it was
in the country precincts that large
part of the signatures were procured
to initiate measures aimed at the sell
fish interests and to refer some OF
the unpopular laws passed by the
legislature to vote of the people.
They figured that a large per cent
OF the farmers would not take the
trouble to go to a registration office
and qualify themselves to sign pet'-

In a report Just published dealing
with the cotton goods trade Of the
Madras Presidency Of British India,
Special Agent Ralph NJ Odell Of the
bureau Of foreign and domestic com
merce. department Of commerce.
states that the United states con-
tributes nothing toward the total Of
81 5,O00,00O worth OF cotton goods
imported into that district This is
attributed 70 the fact that only 10
per cent OF the goods imported even
approximate in construction and
quality the lines that are produced
In the United States. This country
exports annually about 100000
worth Of cotton cloth 10 the whole
Of India. and this is practically all
grey drills. which &.e shipped TO
Bombay and Karachi There is no
demand at all for these goods in
Madras.
In spite of this unfavOrable sit
uatiOn it is believed that changing
conditions such as the difficulty of
securing goods and the rising cost
Of production in England which
supplies about 90 per cent Of the
demand, make IL highly advisable
that American manufacturers should
undertake a careful study of the
market with a view to the possible
production of the cloths desired
Such action on the part of the man
ufacturers is all the more urgent be-
cause the goods that are in demand
in Madras, such as gray and white
shOddies and shirtings and printed
saris, are practically the same as
those in general demand throughout
India. which is the largest market in
the world for cotton piece goods.
To give American manufacturers
some definite idea Of the quality of
goods demanded in the Madras mar
ket. Mr.. Odell has forwarded an ex-
tensive collection of samples. These
are described fully in the new re-
port and the samples themselves
will be placed on exhibition in the
principal cottOn-goOds manufactur-
ing centers. Their final resting place
will be the permanent collection of

DYESTUFF FIGURES
MADE PUBLIC
Gives Accurate Idea of De-
mand for Various ColorS in
United States.

The much-debated dyestun census
prepared by the bureau of foreign
and domestic commerce Of the de-
partment of commerce, has made its
appearance. 1t is a careful enumer-
alton Of the dyes imported into this
country from Europe during the
year preceding the war and is pub
'lished to assist American manufac-
turers in estimating the normal de-
mand for each individual color. The
extent to which most colors have
been used in this country has in the
past been known only 70 the import
ers OF the foreign product.
The American dyestuff manufac-
turer can judge from the published
report Just how much of each col
or was consumed in this country in
a normal year. This will enable him
TO meet demands approximately
without wasting time experimenting.
One large eastern dye maker has al
ready announced that an examina-
ton of the proofs of the census has
enabled his firm TO save a million
dollars and a year of misdirected
effort.
1t is now generally admitted that
any intelligent effort TO build up a
comprehensive, self-cOntained Amer
lean coal-tar chenacal industry must
rest upon the solid foundations of
accurate statistical data concerning
the American market or artificial
colors. In no other way can the
creators of such an industry avoid
duplication. overlapping, waste, and
laundering. tentative struggles 10
adjust productive mechanism 70 a
vague indefinite demand Without
such data the future industry will be
heavily handicapped by permanent
overhead charges. In the dyestuff
census the government mas gathered
together the statistics needed.
The work was compiled from Gus
ems documents in the possession OF
the treasury department and several
months were required by DR.. Nor
ton and a staff Of clerks to assemble
the data. II is the first time that a
census OF colors has been compiled
by any government.

The past week has been one Of
little activity in real estate circles.
No deals of importance are known

only announcement OF interest was

The announcement forthcoming
last week that a new subdivision is
to be opened in the west of the city
was no news in real estate circles
as the deal was known 10 have been
closed for some time. The new
subdivision will be PIT on the mar
ket by Gray and Hopkins of Chi
cagO and II. G. Miller. a local real
estate man. 1t is a 4OO-acre tract
and will probably be called the
Garden Home Subdivision" and
sold in lots Of one acre or more to
suit the purchaser. The new addi-
ton is well located in the path Of
the city's growth westward. being
just one mile west of Olive st. 1t is
bordered on one side by four rail-
roads, the Nandalia, Michigan Cen
trail. Three l. and New Jersey, In
diana & Illinois and affords some
good factory sites.
Perhaps the most interesting
note in regard 10 the opening Of the
new subdivision is the fact that il
again demonstrates that the city is
growing and growing in Sll direc-
tions. During the last year addi-
tions have been opened up in all
parts of the city. Several of these
have had a rapid sale and one or
two Of the, smaller tracts are about
sold out. With the announcement

completion Of work OF the beauti-
full new Harter heights addition just
north OF the city, which will un-

spr ng the indications are that next
year will see an unprecedented
boom in this kind of real estate ac-
tivity. There will also be a year OF
unprecedented activity in building.
especially home building. This
building boom will be forced by the
lack of sufficient houses to accom-
modate the people Of the city, which
lack has been in evidence all this
year. and by the public agitation for
better housing conditions. and il
will be greatly accelerated by the
inducements which the subdivision
promoters give 10 renters 10 buy
lots and build houses of their own.

subdivision on the market now than
at any previous time in the city's
history. with new ones being con
stantly announced as soon 10 be
