CHARLES r.. PORTER
PREDICTS 20 CENT COTTON

ATLANTA, Ca, Sept. 4.-Charles Il.
Porter, formerly of Georgia, now pres
ident of the Consolidated Petroleum
corporation of No. 1 Wall street, New
York City, passing through Atlanta on
his return from an extensive trip
through the South, declares cotton will
bring at least 20 cents a pound by the
close of the European war, which he
believes will continue at least twelve
months longer.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
South is on the eve of harvesting a
cotton crop, the price has been steadily
climbing said Mr.. Porter. "This
condition is almost unprecedented in
the history of the south's great sta
pie"
Discussing business conditions gen.
orally, Mr.. Porter declared the out
look was never brighter and in this
connection he called attention to the
rise in U. S. Steel Corporation stock.
Southern farmers should hold every
bale of cotton they are not absolutely
obliged to sell, is Mr.. Porters opin-
ion, for when the war comes to close
it will bring the highest price since the
civil war.

The lightweight boxing champion
ship of the world is at issue at Colo

Johnny Kilbane, featherweight cham

WRONG AND RIGHT WAY
no CUT ROSES TOO.

There is right and wrong way TO
cut roses. The choice of the latter
may seriously injure the blossom-pro-
ducing properties of the plants, it is
pointed out by specialists OF the q. s..
Department of Agriculture. This ap-
plies particularly, of course, to rose
plants chosen and grown especially
for cut-fower production. Such roses
will be largely of the perpetual bloom
ing sorts.
When a rose is cut from such plants
tea roses or other perpetual bloom
ers-only two or three eyes Of the cur
rent seasons growth of that branch
should be left on the plant. This should
give the roses very long stems. Sue
ceeding blossoms should be cut close
to the ground. 1t will seem like de-
stroying the bush to take so much off
if the object is the production of
roses, the cutting away of the surplus
wood will attain the desired end.
If the spring pruning has not been
sufficiently severe the plant is likely
to have long, naked stalks and short
stems to the flowers. With this char
acter of growth only one or two strong
leaf buds should be left on the branch
when the flower is cut, so as to sitm-

will result in tick eradication from
Texas and the freeing, therefore, o.
ali United States territory from the
pest.
AS a result of determination of the
cattle tick from approximately 2S5 900
square miles in the 10 years during
which the U. S. Department of Agri-
culture and the States have been &C.
lively engaged in the work, the cattle
industry, according to the Bureau Of
Animal Industry, in the South, has i'm
proved from so to 100 per cent Ma
tive beef cattle, freed from attacks OF
the ticks, have put on more flesh; ma
tive dairy COWS are giving more milk;
and, because danger of disease largely
has been eliminated, cattle of better
breeds have been brought in to improve
the native stock. The South has made
greater progress in developing the cat.
tie industry in the last years than in
the preceding so years, and there has
been more progress in the industry in
the South in that period than in any
other section.
The States and counties, railways
and other corporations, and business
men of the South have been active in
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1916-09-04

emphasizing the great Importance Of
tick eradication and in spreading in
terest and information among farmers
and cattlemen. AS a result of the
operation of all these forces, the work
of tick eradication practically has been
half completed.
On July 1, 1916, there had been freed
from ticks 2S4,521 square miles of the
original quarantined area of 72S,543
square miles. 1t is estimated that by
next December 10000 additional
square miles will be freed, bringing the
total tick-free territory to 344,52
SQUARE miles. This will leave total
area under quarantine of 3S4,022
square miles.

ulate as much growth as possibl1
from the base of the plant.
The greatest temptation to elave
wood is where there are two or more
buds on one branch, some being small
when the terminal one is open. This
temptation to follow a bad practices
can be avoided by pinching off all
side shoots after a bud has formed on
the end of branch. This prevents
the formation of two or more blooms
on varieties which bloom more than
once year.
