Egyptian Cotton Outlook

Tweny five cents pound for Egyptian cotton, which has been announced by the Arizona Egyptian Cotton company, increase of two cents pound, making highest price paid in this country for cotton ought be strong stmulant for that industrp in this valley next year. It is not un- reasonable believe that the price paid will go to thirty cents next year And it is certain that all the long staple cotton that can be produced in the United States will now be in demand at prices which are likely be affected by oyer-pro- ducton for the reason that there is compara tipely small area of the earths surface where such cotton can be successfully grown. And for various purposes the demand long staple cotton is in creasing.
 The first crop of Egyptian cotton produced in this valley was unfamiliar spinners. It was somewhat different from any they had used before The market not quite ready for it. Or spin ners had not been informed of it; they required that it should be put to a test But early the next year the merit Salt River Valley cotton was recognized by English spinners and later by our own Undoubtedly there would have been strong demand in England for this high grade cotton last year; that is, for the crop before the last one, for the North African supply had been curtaied and the quality of it had deterorated. But the war intervened and there consequent heavier demand for those articles in which short staple was used and less for those requiring the of higher grade of cotton. But now the market has been firmly established in this country.
 It is stated that cotton at twenty five cents pound will yield net profit of $90 acre, assum- ing that only a bale is produced. Exper- has shown, though, that more than that can be produced if the is properly cultivated. Under favorable conditions expert cultivation much bales have been grown in this valley.
 Under arrangement between the cotton growers side and the agricultural extension service of the university and the bureau of plant industry of the department of agriculture the other it will be possible put every of cotton growing land in this valley under scientific direc ton.
 The acreage for the last small account of discouragements to which we have re- ferred in the previous years but it is believed that the for the present year will reach at least that of the year before last, when 3500 were planted cotton. It will probably largely exceed that acreage

Perversion of the Truth

The people who are organizing for peace seem to be inclined to be reckless about sticking to the truth, and careless about how they quote the words of public men. One of the newest societies organized the Anti Militarism Committee which has already changed it's and now calls itself the Anti Preparedness Committed is guilty of several serious misstaements in the course of one short statement to the press. For example, the public is told that preparedness programs all mean a huge navy and vast increase our military budget with universal compulsory military service in the distance This is deliberate perversion of the truth.
 AIT preparedness programs must include the presidents, and that certainly does not include universal military service" Even more serious is the manner in which the speech made by Senator John Sharpe Williams few days ago is misouoted He is accused of saying that while there is no likelihood that Germany will invade the United States, she is likely to adopt bullying attitude toward us. He said anything of the sort What he tried do to make it clear that one nation did not usually deliberately declare war on another in cold blood, but that a bullying policy by creating wrath and resentment, would lead naturally to war

truth that Jesus had been made both
 Lord and Christ carried home by the
 Holy Spirit produced the deepest and
 sharpest conviction of sin. No other
 truth is so calculated to produce such
 profound conviction of sin as the truth
 concerning the glory of Jesus and our
 consequent enormous guilt in the re-
 jection and crucifixion of such an One
 as He. The Spirit had come to the
 apostles as our Lord had promised and
 through them convinced the world
 (cf 16: 1-9). The sin of which He
 convicted them was the sin of unbelie-
 in Christ or of their treatment of
 Christ These convicted Jews cried out
 to know what they must do: well might they ask it. and well might every one who is guilty of the sin of rejecting Christ today ask it. Peters answer was very explicit and very plain; per Way of salvation and the way to re- ceive the Holy spirit plainer: CD Re pent' i.

Jesus could not be held fast by death: no more can we If we are in Him. Peter, though an eyewitness of the resurrection, goes to the Scripture for proof before appealing to his own experience.

 seen, and sealed their testimony by
 their death: their testimony is unim- peachable. There is still another wit ness to the certainty of the resurrec
 tion of Jesus, the outpoured Spirit (v.
 33). The outpouring of the Spirit,
 which was fact that Peters hearers could see for themselves, was clear proof that Jesus was risen and as- cended; and the gift of the Holy Spirit today is an experimental proof that Jesus IS now at Gods right hand. V. 36 contains the truth to which Peter was leading up: fulfilled Old Testa = ment prophecy. Peters own testimony of what he had seen, the evidence of the outpoured Spirit, all proved a dem onstration that God had made that
 same Jesus, whom they had crucified. both Lord and Christ"

LET US ALL FOOT

Some good genius has suggested
 That pedestrians should tOot; Not the naughty, goggled cnauffeurs
 Speeding down the crowded route. Something like a horn or bagpipes,
 Hidden underneath the arm Just a pressure and the footman
 Sounds the warning and alarm. First upon the spot appearing,
 First to make his presence known, His the right of way undoubted Till he's passed the danger zone. Wise suggestion, let us try it! We, the common people, need This humane and sure protection From the autocrats of speed. Get your pocket tooters ready; Then the driver must go slow, Stop, if need be, on the instant When he hears us squak or blow. | Then if he, on-rushing madly, ! Seeks to run us down. for sport, Just as sure as he's a sinner We will hale him into court l ANN MATILDA JONES.
