 The close association of cotton with
 mankind is uniquely expressed by
 writer when he says, You get up in
 the morning from bed clothed in cot
 ton; you step out on cotton rug; you
 let in the light by raising cotton
 window shade; you wash with soap
 made partly from the cottonseed oil
 products; you dry your face on a cot
 ton towel you array yourself chiefly,
 if not entirely, in cotton clothing; at
 breakfast perhaps cottolene has taken
 the place of lard in the biscuit you eat;
 the beef and mutton were probably
 fattened on cottonseed meal and hulls;
 your imported olive oil is more likely
 from a Texas farm than from an
 Italian villa; your butter is probably
 a product of cotton seed: the coal that
 burns in the fire may have been mined
 by the light of cotton oil lamps; the
 tonic you take perhaps contains an ex-
 tract of cotton root bark, and if you smoked, the tobacco you would use, In all likelihood. grew under cotton cover and is put up in d cotton bag. Another writer says: Tt is d uni f. versal article in universal demand and is everything from the neither end Of a Chinamans shirt to my lady's muslin gown It blithely meets the stork upon it's arrival and lends to death it's slumbering shroud, and the great
 Henry Grady. in his inimitable way once exclaimed, Cotton; what royal plant it is The world waits in attend ance on it's growth: the shower that falls whispering in it's leaves is heard around the earth; the sun that shines upon it is tempered by the prayers of all the people; teh frost that chills it and the dew that descends from the stars are noted. It is gold from the instant it puts forth its tiny shoot, Its fibre is current in every bank, and when loosing it's fleece to the sun Il floats a sunny banner; that glorliles the fields of the humble farmer; thai man is marshalled under a flag thai will compel the allegiance of the worlc

MT. Heard then started the cotton feature of the program by paying a strong tribute to Dr. Brand and Messrs. Carney, Swingle. Scofield and Cook, the cotton cabinet, whom he said were men who by their continued work and scientific research had success fully developed the Pima type of cot ton. To them and to MT Hudson, who worked faithfully and so long in devel- oping the perfected Pima variety, MT. Heard paid tribute by saying that it seems almost as though it were an Aladdin Lamp tale. He told how they had advanced the length of the staple from 115 inches to 1% inches.
 He told of the work Messrs. Hudson and Thackery had done and announced that today they are working on a new variety which they expect to advance to Finch staple with greater tensile strength, even, than the present variety.
 Growth of Great Industry
 President Charles Warehouse of the Cotton Growers Association was pre- scented as the next speaker and in a few minutes he gave more facts about the growth of cotton in the Salt River valley than many had ever heard be- fore. He told of MT Hudson's wonder full work, which in 1912 culminated in the planting of 12O acres near Mesa and the Atha 160-acre stand near Glen dale.
 In 1913 there was 5000 acres In cot ton in the valley and it jumped to 1O,- 900 the next year. Then came the slump in cotton, due to the war, for people did not then know that cotton was a prime wartime essential Thus in 1915 it fell off to 5000 acres-but came back to 1000 last year and is 3S,- 900 this year.
 He put the most conservative esti- mate at 12,000 bales for the valley with 9 probability of 5000 bales higher
Arizona republican., 1917-10-06

The value he put at $3SO0,OOO and the cost of picking at $54 a bale.
 MT. Warehouse then told of the labor problem, of the benefit of asso- citation work which has brought first class white families to the valley as permanent residents and Mexican la bOr as a temporary supply. He told how the combined growers send money for transportation and get it back when the new people commence to earn wages. and then he told of the eX traordinary care taken to keep the seed clean how government experts rope off choice acres and the seed from that is ginned in a mill especially preserved for Pima or cleaned up of every seed before the special cotton goes through clean.
 George Butterworth, classifier, whose opinion will do more to establish the place King Pima should take in the cotton world than anything else, was next to the last speaker. He told of inspecting and classifying 100 bales so far this season. On September 27 he classified nine, of which eight were found to be Pima, with staple 1 11-16 inches long. Of the balance he found 70 balls No 1 or Pima, 29 No. and one No. 3, the No 3 being as good as the best Yuma, which it is expected will be crowded out of the valley in an other year or so by the superior Pima or an even better development.
 MT. McDevitt of the Southwest Cot ton company, was the concluding speaker. He told of the breaking in on September 14 a year ago of the first Goodyear land and of how on Thurs yday of this week it had shipped it's first cotton of the 65cent variety from what a year ago was desert. He said that he lad application for 10000 acres from Imperial Valley people and he urged that a year after world peace comes the valley strive for an inter- national cotton congress.

WILL SAVE DAYLIGHT
Employees of Two Topeka Firms
Change Their Working Hours.

Fourteen employees of the Farm
Mortgage company, of Topeka, have
started on getting -up-early race
with the suburban chickens They
are the first offenders and closest
competitors of the feathered friends.
And then, too, the race will start again
in the evening. They will race the
fowl kingdom to bed.
According to a plan, adopted unani-
mously by the employees, the office
force will start to work at o'clock
each morning, instead of at s, as
they have been doing all winter and
spring, quitting at o'clock in the
afternoon, an hour earlier than their
old schedule.
A second company, this morning,
decided to desert the "lazy clock and
to join in the race. This company is
the W. w. Gavitt Chemical company.
Its employees will occupy a third place
in the race led by the crow and the
cock. According to their schedule OF
service employees of the company will
report for work at 7:15 and will leave
the walls of business at 5, an hour
earlier than has been the custom for
years.
The race according to several en-
ployes promises to have a great many
entrants before fall. Many firms are
now considering a change from the
'larm clock to crow clock, and in all
probabilities will soon change to the
earlier schedule.

PLAY AGAIN SUNDAY
EIks Will Battle The knights of Col
umbus Team, July Is.

Baseball interest will be at high
pitch next Sunday afternoon when
the Elks and knights of Columbus
meet in their third game of the sea-
son at Western league park.
Both have won a game from each
other and much prestige in the strug-
gle for the city championship will be
gained by the team that annexes the
long end of the score next Sunday
For this reason an unusually interest
ing game is expected.
Another thing that is expected to
add to the contest is the fact that
Spencer Arthur Abbott, manager of
the Elks, who has a thoro SCHOOLING
in baseball matters and w1c is on to
all the tricks of the game, is a little
peeved over the defeat his team met
at the hands of the Knights on July
Fourth and he is expected to uncover
some stuff that will make the specta-
tors as well as the Brennan men sit
up and take notice. However, it is
the general opinion that the best
thing he can do is to dig up a pitcher
who is in a class with Sipes.

MAKES VISIT TO TOPEKA
Rev. Frank A. Houser Returns From
Cleveland for Short Stay.

Rev. Frank A. Houser, former
North Topeka minister, will return to
Topeka this week for a short visit
with Mr.. and Mrs. w. E. Bacon, of
1907 Park avenue. During his visit
here he will address his former con-
gregation of the North Topeka Bap-
fist church.
Seven years ago Rev. Houser left
Topeka to accept the pulpit at the
Cleveland Trinity Baptist church
where he has been serving since then.
Last year the Rev. Houser was asked
to serve on the welfare commission,
as director, under Mayor Davis, OF
Cleveland, but in spite of the position
paying $4,000 a year and being the
highest position in the mayors cabi-
net, the Rev. Houser refused the ap-
pointment. He wished to serve in his
church, where he could do more good
and give greater service.

WAS REAL CHAMP
Frank Kramer Held Bike Title
for Long Time.
Ills Earnings in Races Made
Him Big Fortune.
BY JACK VEIOCK.

New York. July 1O.-One of the
countrys greatest sports champions
passed from the ranks of title holders
a. Newark short time ago when
frank Kramer was deposed as king of
- bike riders by Arthur Spencer. the
canadian rider.
Kramer held the national cycling
utie Tor sixteen years, during which
ulne he earned in the neigh borhood
Oh $25O,OO0 in the velodromes of the
country. He first won the title in
1871, defeating Major Taylor at Walls
purS In one of the greatest series of
races in the history of cycling and al
tho many crack riders came to the
front during Kramer's. long years as
the foremost rider on the American
tracks, he beat them all and beat them
badly.
Won Title in 1912.
Twice during his long career Kra-
mer has been recognized as the
world s champion. He first won the
title in 1912 by defeating a crack field
at the Newark velodrome composed
of Walter Rutt, Alfred Grenda and
Andre Perchicot. This meeting of the
pick of the worlds riders was wit
messed by the largest crowd that ever
paid to see bike riders perform, more
than $4,000 persons being present
when Kramer annexed the world
cycling crown.
Kramer took his recent defeat like
great champion should. but an Incl
dent in connection with it was n heart
breaker for him. He entered the
semi-finals matched with Goullet,
while Spencer was pitted against his
brother, Willie, whom ne defeated.
Kramer who was tired and unable
to set his usual pace against Goullet
was fined $40 by the referee, who as
serted he was not trying to win, and
the old champ entered a strong pro-
test, declaring it was the frs time in
his long career that he hal ever been
accused of quitting or taking. That
fine was a bitter pill for lie man who
put Orange, n. J., on the map.
Was Clean Liver.
Clean living has been the secret of
Kramer's long and successful career
on the tracks. He entered the cycling
game on the advice of a physician. for
he was in delicate health as a young
ster and in need of some form of out
door exercise that would build up his
body. He was born at Evansville. Ind,
thirty-six years ago, althO he has lived
most of his life at Orange, which is his
home at present.
The defeat of Frank Kramer marks
the passing of wonderful champion,
fer when his age is considered it is
something of marvel that he should
be capable of outriding and outgam-
ing dozens of younger, and perhaps
stronger riders, who were seeking his
crown. Few champions in sports are
able to cling to the pinnacle of their
class after they reach he age of thir-
ty. and in many sport branches the
age limit of endurance is below that
mark.
