New York, Feb. 2.-The ginnings
to January l6 as reported by the
census bureau. showed lO,762 POP run
ming bales as compared with 1l,9l5,-
$50 bales to the same date last year
and 10, 5S2,O36 bales in 1914. The
ginning for the last period of the
season, Dec. 81 to Jan. 16, is the
smallest in the history of the bureau,
being i7,172 bales less than in the
same period of 1901 when the total
crop was 12,O75,OOO bales. As the
average quantity ginned prior to Jan
uary l6 in the last ten years is $50
per cent of the total crop, it seems
reasonable to infer that the crop
this year will be little, if any, over
II 10000 bales. The market ignored
this bulish report, owing no doubt to
the fact that the factor of supply has
long since lost its effect as price
making Influence, and the questions
which now promise to increase in
importance are those of exports and
the size of the next crop acreage.
At the moment the overshadowing fea-
ture is the continued unfayorable con
dition surrounding the export situa-
ton Shipping facilities for cotton
are almost unprocurable, and daily
exports have dwindled to insigniii-
cant proportions There is apparent
ly, however no disbursement in
the ranks of the spot holders, and
evidently they are still firmly of the
opinion that eventually England must
relieve the situation by providing
ocean bottoms, or else run the risk
of crippling beyond repair her great
textile industry. That we are com
ing nearer and nearer to the time
when some government action viii
have to be taken is evidenced by the
diminishing supply of cotton at Eng
lish points of accumulation. An evi.
dence of this is the reported stocks
of American cotton in English ports
or anoat for England These now
total only 100000 bales against l.,
100000 bales at the corresponding per
iod last year

well known authority states that

heartburn, fatulence, water-brash, or
nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar-
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in a glass OF
water before breakfast while 1t Is
effervescing, and furthermore, to con-
tinue this for one week. While re-

DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody

The use of Sage and sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair to its nat
ural color dates back to grandmoth-
er's time. She used it to keep her
hair beautifully dark, glossy and abun'
dant. Whenever her hair fell out or
took on that dull, faded or streaked
appearance, this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a 50-cent bottle
of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy" you will get this famous
old recipe which can be depended
upon to restore natural color and
beauty to the hair and is splendid
for dandruff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp
and falling hair.
A well known downtown druggist

and evenly that nobody can tell II

and after another application or two
it becomes beautifully dark, glossy

"When scheme is proposed by
which existing school buildings may
accommodate two sets of pupils, 1t Is
no wonder that wide interest Is
aroused" declared Supt. j. II. van
Sickle. of Springfield, Mass, in de-
scribing the spread of the Gary plan
of school organization in report Just
issued by the United States bureau
of education of the department OF the
interior.
ANY plan that will lessen the eX-
pense of housing school children makes
a strong appeal to boards of estimate
school boards, and the press. School
boards are not willing, however, to be
hurried into adopting, for exclusive
use in a situation quite different from
that in which it originated, plan so
radically different from the customary
one without carefully testing its appli-
cability."
Arguments for and against the Gary
plan are presented by Superintendent
Van Sickle. He says:
"The Gary plan is advocated large
ly, but not exclusively, on the ground
of lower cost. There are those, how
ever, whose approval is based upon the
claim that by means of longer school
dav it affords to the children wider
opportunities for work, study, and
play: that it distributes the burden
of teaching more evenly over the en-
| tire teaching staff; and that it affords
prevocational training to all children
in all of the grades instead OF coniln'
| ing such work to a small group of chill
dren in the seventh and eighth grades
The Gary system has commended it.
self to students of education for vari'
Gus reasons. 1t promises:
l. An enriched school life for every
pupil.
.. A coordination of all existing
child-welfare agencies and fuller
utilization of all facilities in present
public and private recreational anc
educational institutions.
8. A solution of the part-time prob
lem.
4. A double school plan by whicl
each school seat serves two children
3. A wider use of the school plant
6. An increase in the school da!
through a coordination of work, stud!
and play activities.
T. A program that would invest thu
child's non-academic time to create
profit and pleasure.
s. A socialized education in har
, mony with progressive thought of tn
day.

dren from the first year through the
eighth. instruction Of groups OF chill
dren by pupils instead of teachers, the
grouping together of younger and older
pupils for auditorium, laboratory, ana
workshop exercises, the substitution
of an auditorium period for class room
instruction, omission of formal phys
ical training, supervised play with only
four teachers for II classes, the de-
ferring of scholastic work for first
year children until late in the after
noon. They urge that sufficient time
has not elapsed to test the worth of
the scheme.
"A further criticism is that outside
instruction in the home or in the
church is permitted, but that no means
is provided for seeing that such in
struction is the equivalent of regular
schooling. N.'
"To this criticism the reply is made
that it would be very unfortunate if
the school undertook to insure that
such instruction should be the equiv
alent of the regular schooling, for in
that case the school would be super
vising religious instruction which the
law expressly prohibits. The program
simply provides that the child can
be excused during the day to take pri-
vate lessons at home or attend re-
ligious instruction, if the parent so de-
sires. These periods are never taken
from the academic work and therefore
do not detract from the regular work
of the school. As in the case of play
and auditorium, it is simply time
which, in the traditional school, the
child would spend upon the street
What is taught in these outside class
es and how it is taught is not and
and should not be the concern Of the
school"
Interest in the Gary plan is by no
means COnHueu 10 lut ldISGI ClllSo,
Superintendent Van Sickle finds.
Even in communities where the
part-time problem is either less acute
else nOn-eXistent, and where the eX-
penditures for schools have not be-
come so burdensome as in New York,
there will be decided interest in the
Gary duplicate plan. This gigantic eX-
pertinent in education, now in full op'

and in partial operation in the largest
American municipality, is unquestiOn
ably of vast Importance, yet the
changes required in installing the sys'
TEN in existing schools are so radical
and so expensive that school authori-

of an adequate trial in New York City
before departing from the present pol
