nPoRTANCE OF COTTON.

Few people except those born ard
reared In the south, have any idea of
the various uses for cotton. and ~
is quite likely that many Eoutherncrg
do not FUZZY comprehend 10 what ex-
tent cotton enters into the various
needs ~ our daily life. The demand
on this staple crop Of Dixieland has
become greater since the war out

biscuit may have come from Il.
Ia all likelihood the leather under
the soles Of your feet came from the
cotton seed hull
The "olive" oil with which you
make tasteful your dinner salad very
likely is more of Dixie than of Italy.
The tires on your auto, the cushions
on which you sit and the top which

BARs NAVY LEAGUE.

There's y merry war on down at
Washington between Secretary Dan
tells and the Navy League. which has
resulted IN the secretary forbidding
representatives Of the league from en-
tering ships or reservations. also
warning contributors that In the fu-
ture the navy department will no.
accept anything whatever from that
organization.
The Navy League was organized
soon after the spanssh-American war.

who realized what might have been
the outcome OF that war IL Germany
and Austria had Joined forces with
