PAGe'S WEEKLY LETTER
IS THE PRICE OF COTTON TOO HIGH ?
by John H. Page. Commissioner of Agriculture.

Thousands of farmers have been rushing their cotton on the market without knowing its grade or staple and with no in- telligent idea as to it's real value
 Too many farmers think that while the price of cotton is go ing up is the best time to sell. They rush their cotton on the market so fast that the railroads and congresses are crowded and the market glutted. and then frequently the market falls off a little and they say "I told you so,
 sold my cotton while the price was up." Why shouldn't the price fall when the growers are doing everything to glut the market? Only the far-sighted wisdom of spinners and buyers

EFFECTIVE BAPTISM

At one of the smaller cities of New England there was an Episcopal cnurcn which nad two mission chapels. commonly known as the East Ei.i M 'sier, and the North End Mission. from the parts of the city where they were respectively located. One day the rector gave out the no- tices in his most distinguished high church tone, as blows: There will be a service at tha North End Mission at 3 o'clock and at the East End at 5. Chil- dren will be baptized al both ends.

who want to get their share Tn time can prevent ruinous market conditions under such practices upon the part of the growers. But if you will look over the past you will see that the best price paid for cotton is after the farmers have sold it. The only exceptions are in the years when d big crop is made and a surplus is carried over. Then the cot ton gamblers sometimes get in the game late in the season and force the price down, In small crop years the price always goes higher after the farmers have sold out.
 Every farmer ought to be able to judge the value of cotton by the price he pays for cotton goods. The mills sell their pro duct before they make it. and then buy cotton against their orders. They can always afford to pay a price in proportion to the price of their goods. plus the

neighbors think they had beef steak for breakfast, but that ,a,e Is tame compared to this. Out on the Colfax line a young couple keep house in quiet way having no servant, The other day the husband went home in the even ing, taking friend to dinner. That ought to entitle him to ten days. for the happy and unsus- pecting wife had a dainty dinner for two all on the table. My dear, said the head of the fam fly, when his friend had said goodnight and the door had been closed. how was it that you mad four big potatoes baked tonia ht? We never had more than two and you could not have known that l had company.
 II didn't" ]"
 Yes. but you did my dear. My friend ate one, you ate a half one and l ate the other half. and there were two left in the bowl. l"
 Very true my innocent" said the laughing wife. but those that were left were as cold and raw as a March morning in New England. They were put there for appearance to fill up; and when you bring company home without telling me again, I'll make you eat them that way"
 And then they say women don't know enough to vote! The average woman IS genius.

When cotton was 20 cents l ad- vised the farmers to hold for 25 cents. Later 1 advised to hold for 30 cents. In my opinion you cannot lose by holding your cot ton until May or June. The world needs it and must have it. By holding you squeeze out the speculator. You don't hurt the consumer.

BELG|ANS PROUD OF OFFENSIVE
 CANPA|GN
(By Associated Press.)


 WITH THE BELGIA NARMY. Bel gium, Jan. 23. - The pride of the Bel gian troops in holding back the Ger mans from further encroachment on Belgian soil is observable immediate ly one enters the sector occupied by King Albert's troops. Determination to prevent any advance by the Ger mans and the will to push back the invaders when the time is ripe are evident everywhere.
 The Associated Press correspondent has visited the Belgian advanced lines at point between Dixmude and Boesinghe. where. for the moment. there is still fighting. Winter under foot, thick mists making the atmos- phere heavy and preventing observa- ton. and cold rain falling in con tinuous pentrating downpour make ac- ton almost impossible.
 Out in the front Hines. after a long tramp over board walks across sod len fields and irrigation channels. the correspondent saw the Belgian sol iiers keeping their constant vigil, clothed in heavy woolen coverings ,nd oilciotn coats and high rubber boots. Here and there a sentinel stood looking out over the mile or 70 of water covering the space be tween the Belgian and German lines iimly visible in the distance. No barbed wire entanglements are pos ,ible here. their place is taken by sea water, which by the cutting of dikeS has been permitted to flow where 1t wills, although it renders the land un- cultivatable for twenty years.
 The crack of an occasional rifle shot, fired from one side or the other when a guard imagines some move ment in the opposing lines. was dulled by the heavy air and sometimes near but generally far off was heard the roar of an aerial torpedo.
 It is impossible at any point of the Belgian front to eXcavate trench. for each spadeful of earth taken out is at once replaced by hole full ol water. In place of trenches the only way to form protective line for the infantry occupying the front lines is to construct shelters of sand filled canvas sacks and this has been de veloped into an art by the Belgian troopers. For four days at a stretch the same men remain without reliei at the front under these distressing conditions, but there is no complaint, for the men are mostly hardy pea sants or lahoring men, who have had | to combat the Belgian climate all their lives. Hardships which for troops from other and drier districts would prove unsupportable. are borne hy them with cheerfulness.
 King Albert. who lives near the actual fighting line. pays an almost daily visit to some part of the front, The queen, too, remains on Belgian , soil, and when not engaged in hospi- tai work is often seen walking along ! among the soldiers when they are enjoying a short respite from active service.
 Eyerywhere there are evidences Of America's aid to the Belgian woun' ded and to refugees from the inter- for, who insist in remaining on the | small portion Of Belgian soil still left ] to them. American ambulances are often seen along the routes.
