report of this committee Bulletin No TO- Is taken the fol-
lowing comment on one 81 the tests:
"l. Lighted match wss held against edge Of

Of 6x7 inches slightly singed surface No fire left In

"2. Nine matches placed, one on top Of the
other and allowed to burn to charcoal Cotton IN
contact with flame charred; no flash no fire left in
cotton
"9. The flame. from gasoline blow torch
passed over the entire surface Of the exposed side Of
the bale. Cotton In direct contact with the Tame
eharred, but fire did not flash nor was any fire left
IN the cotton"
The Committee recommended that the railroads Of the
United States encourage general Of the PROCESS and
the Bulletin closes with the following

report covering III typewrtten pages was made by
the Underwriters Laboratories Chicago Under direction
of the National Board Of Fire Underwriters upon the Got
ton Protection Process We quote from this report page
1903:
THE tests and Investigations of this process
show that what might be termed an envelope of
treated cotton is established on the bale that has
material influence in reducing the susceptibility of
the bales to damage from spark and flash fires and
country damage, without detrimental effect to the
cotton"
And at page 89
Flash tests of small sample bales of cotton
known to have been treated for two years showed no
difference in Its fash.proofng properties when
tested by the application of flaming matches"
Following the publicity of this report from the Labo-
rator the heads Of Underwriters Associations of the cot
ton states met at Atlanta Ca where the findings
sdered and credits granted for treated cotton allowing
percent to be deducted fom final estimates on all cotton
platforms covered open and upon cotton yards where
only treated cotton stored while the spark hazard was
entirely eliminated.

In Bulletin 68, Department q Commerce and Labor, says
Cotton is the only important commodity which has
resisted the progress of the age and which continues to
enter the market places in the form and garb Of days prior
to the Civil war
There is loss from sampng and deductions are
made for country damage, WHETHER VISIBLE OR
NOT. These two items may be properly included In the
cost of handling and added to the totals given THEY
WILL AVERAGE TWO DOLLARS PER BALE!
Country damage prevails to such extent that
has become the custom to consider reclamation that
count and in purchasing from the farmer the merchant
usually deducs points to that contingency.
ONE ESTIMATE PLACES THE LOSS TO THE FARMER
ON ACCOUNT OF COUNTRY DAMAGE AT $500 PER
BALE
IF the spinnes of Europe could obtain cotton else
where in needed quantity and quality, they would not
come to the United States apd accept the unsighty and
antiquatsd package with its wastefuness and loss
"A commodity Of such enormous value to the indus
tries of the country and Of such paramount Importance in
the maintenance of the national credit in the settlement
of international balances surely should be handled and
safeguarded In consideration Of W great merit and value,
and In accordance With the advanced methods that insure
increased efficiency in production and the fullest

BEST GARDENS GET
Big CASH PRIZES
Milwaukee Railroad to Award
Money to Amateur Agricul-
turists for Efforts.
PROF. HOLDEN TO ASSIST

As ali incentive to people living
along the lines Of the Milwaukee road
to engage in agricultural pursuits this
year President Earring announces the
distribution Of $500 in cash prizes
among the amateur gardeners. The
division superintendent, assisted by
Professor Holden, farm and garden
expert, will arrange details and super
wise the distribution of awards.
In the distribution of gifts for good
gardening President Earline proposes
two prizes Of 500 each, one for the
largest yield for any single commod-
ity and the other for the best all
around garden. Other prizes will be
$50 each, and 1.ill be divided among
the divisions of the road.
The Burlington has launched a
campaign to cooperate with the
farmers of the eleven agricultural
states through which the lines of the

to seed as many acres as possible and
to test the seed prior to planting, later
keeping fields free from weeds.

GROCERS URGE ALL
TO PAY PROMPTLY
Business Men Want to Keep
Down Prices, Which Are
Lower Than Elsewhere.
SAY THAT IT CAN BE DONE

The Omaha Retail Grocers' associ-
alton is making an appeal to
customers to ray their accounts
promptly as another step forward in
the struggle 20 keep down the high
cost Of living. The appeal is being
made through the newspapers and the
first OF series or announcements
stating the position of the grocers will
be found in this edition of The Bee.
President E. E. Wise of the Retail
Grocers' association said:
I'VE hav+ made an investigation in
several of the larger cities and find
that without exception prices are fror
10 to 20 per cent higher than in
Omaha. This we believe is due te the
fact that the great majority Of gro
cers in Omaha are cash buyers, which
.nables us to get better price than
Inc average grocer in other cities.
Prof Growing Less.
Despite the fact that prices are
v'ry high now, the members of our
association all report diminishing
profits. With the increase in prices
there is a tendency on the part OF our
customers to allow their bills t. run
longer than formerly. If we are 10
maintain even fairly low price by
comparison with other cities we must
have prompt settlement of our credit
accounts.
ITO obtain this we are going to ap-
peal to the public through the news
papers to be prompt in the settle
ment of accounts so we may continue
TO take advantage of discounts and by
)uying cheaper be able to sell cheaper.
There has been all agitation among
the grocers for a strict cash policy,
but, as a whole, we prefer to main
tain Our present system of accommo-
dating, customers to the fullest ex-
tent Of our ability. If our appeal for
prompt settlements on thirty-day
basis as limit is Needed we will be
BILE to continue as at present"

where did you get that auto?"

Where did you get that auto?"
George F. Porter, 1925 Lincoln
boulevard. flung this question at F. H.
Parker, 32l5 California street, as the
latter drove up in front of Trinity
cathedral Sunday. Both men are
friends.
81 bought it, George" nonchalantly
rV.,lied Mr.. Parker, land she is a
sweet-running car, too"
81 know it," said Porter. "It is my
car"
The two friends compared notes.
Mr.. Parker said he had bought the
car from Ed Richardson, 4522 South
Twelfth street.
Mr.. Richardson told Detectives Un-
ger, Psznawowski and Rich that he
had paid cash for the car. He said
that Fred Chlerod, GA South Eight
zenith street, sold it to him.
Chlerod was not home.
But his sick wife and new baby
we're there" said Detective Pszanow-
ski" and we felt sure that Chlerod
would return soon"
The officers waited and arrested
Chlerod on his return.
