WHAT THE OTHER FELLOWS
GOING TO DO

In the first place, he's gone cotton
craza. 12-cent cotton has been too
much for him; it has gone to his head
and, displacing the little bit of reason
knocked into it by six-cent cotton last
year, has set him planning air-castles
already.
Even now he is visioning cotton on
every possible acre, cotton in the fence
corners, cotton along the roadside up
to its very edge, little or no oats, lit
tie or no CONNECTION, cotton, every
where, with what he regards as the
certainty of good prices, with conse-
quent affiuence. He has already fig
ured it out that the rest Of the world
will diversity, leaving the raising of
cotton to him, and he's fully resolved
to make killing"
He has some feed now that hard
times made him raise, but he doesn't
care whether he has any this year or
not, for won't it be easy for him to buy
all he wants with his big crop of cot
ton? He planted peas in his corn last
year, but didn't save any seed, so
won't plant any this year. What's the
use, he says, when you can buy plenty
of commercial fertilizer on credit ?
He terraeed some of his land and saw
ed the barn yard manure last year;
but what's the use, he says, of keep
ing up these things when fellows
going to get rich this year raising cot
ton, anyway? He had actually learn
ed few common sense economies and
had apparently taken few steps to-
ward getting himself on a rational
level, live-at-hOme basis, but pshaw!
What's the use of fellow doing such
things when cotton't twelve cents?
If this "other fellow" lives in your
neighborhood, it win be interesting to
watch him. He's going to make a
killing all right, but it will not be-
the kind he's looking for.-ProgressiveI

PHYSICAL BASIS IN
GIRL BUILDING

Every thinking person will hearth
ly endorse the purpose of the New
York State Federation of Womens'
Clubs to establish "trade schools" for
girls. And the endorsement will be
given, because of the physical, as well
as the moral, basis as pursued in these
schools. The argument rests on sound
psychological analysis and moral con-
viction. The credentials are from a
higher court than that of the utilities;
though in our day probabilities are of
vast interest.
Thoughtful educators are pressing
the point of the physical and moral
basis of education and culture.
All Scripture unites in the truth
that physical soundness is the essen
tial of all essentials. The conclusion
is that weak physical nature means
an unhealthy mind, morally so.
These club women propose to teach
and show the girls that it is their du-
ty to make the most and best of her
self in the physical sense, because, in
order to make the most and best of
the httls-lAAraI ead ethiealN world
within herself, Iev8ist have he'aiss,
good physical condition, be whole
some and vibrant with life and spirit.
To teach her that fine physical de-
velopment is the greatest gift she can
covet, that health is complement to
moral and spiritual life, that if she
would keep something of natural mu-
sic in her, something of native fresh
ness and elasticity of body and mind
to late hour in life, she must give
all the care she can to the things of
physical culture. Not in any hap-haz-
ard way, but uniform, systematized
and persevered in culture.
To teach her to garner and conserve
physical strength energy and joy
Gus spirit; facilities that will help her
in winning other prizes, make her a
charming companion, and leave no
room in the kingdom within her for
morbid sentiment and morbid hysteria.
The purpose of these clubwomen, who
have time, money and disposition to
be of service to their less fortunate
sisters, is worthy of praise.-Johnson
City Staff.

the specified sins to which human ma
ture is subject and which are emphat-
ically condemned by the Church.
We hardly think that our readers
were startled by the dispatch in ques-
ton. II was the same in effect that
was circulated in many newspapers
during the last General Conference of
the Methodist Episcopal Church. when
an effort was made to abolish the spe-

condemnation of worldly amusements.
That the newspaper man who father
ed the false report of last Saturday
lost sight of the fact that he was sim
ply sending out an old chestnut"
when he thought that he was serving
up something new and spicy would in
dictate that he was suffering not so
much from bad heart as from a soft
head. Chicago should not feel proud
of such news service.-Christian Ad-

CHEERFULNESS HELPS A MAN
TO SUCCEED.

"The men whom have seen succeed
best in life," says Charles Kingsley,
shave always been cheerful and hope
full men, who went about their BUSH
ness with smiles on their faces, and
took the changes and chances of this
mortal life as it came" And | believe
Kingsley's observation accords with
the general rule. The worrying, anx-
Gus, fussy, or sour fellow really hand
leaps himself UNNECESSARILY in the
struggle for success. Cheerfulness is
to boy what axle grease is to wag-
on; it makes things smooth and en-
ables you to get further and accom-
plish more with the same expenditure
of effort and power.
It's the boy who can "endure hard
ness as a good soldier" in st. Papul's
phrase, without whine or complaint,
who wins, and there's another good
phrase of St. Paul's that is worth re-
calling in this connection. Forget
ting those things which are behind. :
ne says. "this one tlnwg4 do In otfl-
err words, he says Il am not worry
ing about the past, it can't te helped.
And | am not worrying about the hun
bred other things that might be done.
But here is a thing that is worth
while, and buckle down to it."
have known boys to worry about
their, mistakes until their worry be-
came a ten times bigger mistake than
anything else they had ever done. You
ought to worry just enough over mis-
take to make sure you don't make it
again, and then forget it. And it is
good rule of Edward Everett Hale's:
"Never bear more than one kind of
trouble at a time. Some people bear
three kinds-all they have had, all
they now have, and all they expect to
have"

WARNING TO PRODUCERS
Against Planting Seed of Inferior Va
rieties of Cotton.

Washington, d. c., March 9-The
Department of Agriculture. on April
8, 1914, and again on March 2, 1915,
issued warnings to farmers of the
southwest against planting varieties
of cotton that usually produce a sta
pie of less than 7-S inch in length, es-
pecially such varieties as are SAID to
produce half and half lint. In view
of the approaching planting season,
the department wishes to reiterate
these warnings for the benefit Of the
entire cotton belt. The producers Of
cotton, for their own welfare, should
heed this advice and should exercise
judicious care in the selection Of plant
ing seed.
The following reasons are given for
warning cotton growers against plant
ing any variety that usually produces
a staple Of less that seven-eighths
inch in length:
/. Cotton Of less than seven-eighths
inch staple is of approximately the
same spinning value as the bulk of the
cotton Of India. On economic princi-
pies, the American product should be
maintained on higher level of intrin-
sic worth than that of India in order
that the American crop may not be
forced to compete in the markets of
the world with the cotton of India.
2. Cotton of less than seven-eighths
inch staple is inferior to the average
American quality, and localities that
produce such cotton in appreciable
quantities soon establish regulations
for an inferior product The price Of
all cotton in such marget viii suffer on
account Of the poor reputation of the
market.
3. Competent cotton buyers dis
criminate against extremely short sta
pie whenever such cotton is discover
ed. They should be equally careful to
discriminate in favor Of cotton with
good staple. The farmer who pro-
duces inferior cotton is likely to find
that his product brings a price mate
rally lower than quotations would in
dicate as its true value. The seller
commonly looks upon such discrimina-

this he said to the bureaucrat whose
word was final, "Look here, this may
be the Russian way; I will indulge
in it If you wish, but the American
way Is to charge the cost Of produc-
ton and sales to the price. My ex-
penses are large. Each day from now
on I will add these charges to the
