established and promulgated and their use on the future exchanges be- came practically compulsory, on February IS, 1915. They have been adopted voluntarily by all the leading spot cotton exchanges of the United States.
 The representatives of the depart ment also visited Bremen and Havre and conferred with German and French cotton merchants in regard to the adoption of the American stand ards by those exchanges. The Harve exchange has taken no action, but the question is still open with Bremen and that exchange has stated its ex- pectation of adopting the standards if they prove to be suited to the condi- tions of the cotton trade at Brenmen. 1t is believed that these conferences did much to promote uniformity ill cotton grades for the future, but owing to the disturbed conditions caused by the war no definite agree ,ments were possible.

UNIVERSAL COTTON
 STANDARDS PROPOSED
Efforts to Secure Adoption by Foreign Exchanges of Official Amer.
 ican Standards,

The establishment under the terms of the United States cotton futures act of official cotton standards for the United. States has been accompanied by an earnest :. effort to secure the adoption of these standards by the cot ton trade in Europe as we'll as in this country. A brief history of this move ment is contained in service and reg .llatory announcements No.z,7 of the office of markets of the United States department of agriculture, which has just been published.
 Although the attempt to secure the adoption abroad of the new American official standards, was not altogether successful, this new publication shows that much has been accomplished to- ward bringing about uniformity of standards. For various reasons the Liverpool Cotton association did not see fit to adopt the American official standards, but has revised it's standard to form which is said to accord at least in value with the American stan dards, and which replace by single set the three sets formerly in use, rep resenting respectively Upland, Gulf and Texas cotton. ss
 This triple standard seems to have grown up in Liverpool between 1883 and 1913. It seems also to have been the result of process of evolution caused by the increasing necessities of the cotton trade, and was built up from time to time by the addition of types or boxes of standards.
 When the United States cotton fu- lures act was passed and experts be- gan the work of preparing the new standards it required the desirability of securing universal adoption for the, new standards was recognized. For reasons given in detail in service and regulatory announcements No. z, how ever, it was found undesirable to adopt the Liverpool standards for upland cotton. In order, therefore, to explain the proposed American standards and to urge their adoption in England, Germany and France, two members of. the department of agriculture visited Europe in the fall of 1914. A numbe: of conferences with representatives of the Liverpool Cotton association were held, and it seemed at one time prob able that this association would adopt the American standards, one or two minor changes having been made at their request. The association, how ever. was unwilling to take definite action until March 1, 1915. It was inn possible under the law for the Amer ican government to defer until that date the promulgation of the American standards and accordingly no agree ment on standards with Liverpool was reached.
 On December 15, 1914, the official standards of the United States were

PAINT AND NHIrEWASH.

''Pain your house itSsou can, but if you can't paint it's thsh whitewash. it
 Have the outbuifdipgs whitewashe.l also if you can't afford to paint them That is advice offered farmers by the Progressive Farmer. It is most ex- celle4t and might be given every oecu- |ItaHt.sof a4home. "
 At this season of the. year when cleanup crusades are under way when everybody is engaged in i'm proving their premises and trying ill every way to beautify them, too little attention is gwen to the use of paint and whitewash. There is nothing better than whitewash in the way of improving, at small cost, the appear ance of houses, outbuildings,> fences and trees. In addition to the cleanly aspect given premises the use of lime IS most beneficial from sanitary point. It
 IS an excellent disinfecAant and a great destroyer of insect life. Bugs and worms which injure trees may te killed by a fire, use of whitewash made from lime.
 In towns and cit es often a servants house, barn or garage in the rear may be weatherbeaten and discloroed may detract from the beauty of a fine home, when a coat of whitewash ap- piled to these old buildings would give them a bright and clean appear ance.

Sometimes you will find them ly ing On floors or window sills ap parently dead, especially in unused rooms
 However, don't assume that they are dead. They're not. They arc merely play ng possum,' and will recover when the temperature rises CT the unused room gets warmer.
 This is an ideal time of the year to clean up the house and give special attention to every out-of-thc-way place where flies may lark.
 If you don't do this, here is what you will be up against, according to the estimate of government experts:
 Female fly surviving the winter may be expected to beg Il laying eggs in April. Her progeny will be laying by June 1. We may reckon on five crops by October l. The first crop alone is big enough, but succeeding generations quickly run far beyond the grasp of human imagination. If all the eggs matched and developed into nature flies, the. offspring of that one fly would amount, by Oc- tober l, to the appalling number of 131. .22O OO0,O0O, ,0O0, 100000.
 
 This number of flies would fill solidly about ten, ordinary houses.
 But please don't go into mysteries! These eggs do not all. hatch, and the little larvae and pupae do not all grow up, and the adult flies don't all car ray outSthis theoretical program. If they did all other formssof life in the world would soon be buried under an avalanche of. flies.
 What we are trying to#lmpress you with is this: Whene1er syou meet these playing possums flies, kill them. They are in evelyhouse, and ii every one killed them tik time each year we would get veiiys little oppor- trn'ty to swat flies ins the summer time because there woyAan't be any to swat A

ADVERTISING THE CHURCHES.


 ..This is a progressive age. We are advancing with electrical ssswiftness. The man who is slow will sbon lose out. we must push forRard ; with energy if we expect to win, Old ideas are beng sidetracked. In systems Of living are being readjusteds.
 With these observations, the Mem- phis Commercial Appeal points out the necessity for newspaper publicity for churches, saying:
 Just now the question has been raised as to the ethical advisabil ty is advertising the churches. If tho < churches are to hold their own they must advertise. They cannot afford rot to. They must impress upon the public their religious importance and the best way to reach the public is by advertising. .sf ,t<!
 "Not placing the churches on Il commercial basis, it might be we'll to mention that they like places of busi- ness and places of amusement are de- pendent upon public patronage. A church without members cannot sus- tain itself. The day has come when strenuous methods must be applied it the membership of any church is to Ee increased
 Billy Sunday is an evangelist who las made a great success and who has done much good, and Billy us- Gay depends entirely upon his per sonal ability and upon advertising for his progress. He advertises like . circus. He has his press bureau ard his publicity men. He makes the f'llboards flame with posters, while the columns of newspapers are filled with his press matter.
 '.Dr. Talcott Williams. of the School Journalism, told a church congrega- ton in Manhattan few days ago that the churches would greatly increase their membership by spending as much on advertising their services as they now spend On their music. He might have made his point still stronger by adding that in Brooklyn where the churches advertise mor7 freely than they do in any other city of the country, the church attendance is notably larger than in any othe, city of similar size in the United States.
 The newspaper is the best means O. publicity. Every church should have a generous fund set aside for publicity purposes.
 me Memphis minister has alread, inaugurated this policy with astonish Ing success. One cannot ride on an, car line without seeing poster or some billboard calling attention te the services of his church.
 "The mere fact that we read shows the gcoi of advertising. We do no, < forget. We are reminded of what W, owe to ourselves. our homes and t, our Father.-
