Almost everyone recalls the slump In cotton
which followed the opening of the war ind how,
with cotton selling as low rs Ave and seven cents
a pound the South as one man In nn organ
lied DISQUALIFICATION" campaign which en-
abled the cotton producers to tide their industry
over the financial doldrums which resulted from
the chaos Of wnr. The manner In which cotton
rebounded from this low mark makes II one Of the
huskest war brides in America with the possible
exception Of the munitions and aed Industries.
When cotton had reached 1S cents last year
there were certain optimsts who were predicting
25cent cotton. and they did not have to wait long
for that miracle to come to pass. When King
Cotton passed tho 27-cent mark recently It marked
the highest level Of prices since the days imme-

Southern planters were able to obtain almost nny

Everyone knows the important part cotton IL
playing in the making of the high explosives
needed to win titanic battles on land and sea. In
recent years an ever increasing number of i'm
portant uses have been found for cottonseed and
other waste. COttOnseed meal has been used for

in the making of cooking compounds, but expert

preparing feed for live stock and are consumed In

Another by-product which is serving the country
well at this time is llnters the short lint removed
from the seed In the course Of it, preparation for
eating purposes. Linters are almost pure cellu-

cotton acreage would have resulted III an eve"
more serious predIcament for the cotton planter"
during the summer season.
Another reason for the decline In production ms
been the strong pressure brought to bear upon
the South to practice diversified farming. TINS
has resulted In some states In a considerable de-
crease In the cotton acreage In order that more
corn. wheat. onts hay and other FOOD crops might
be grown. though these conditions are more or
less local The government is engaged In cam
pnign to interest the South In feeding itself, ana
many thousands of farmers who planted cotton
almost exclusively have embarked In diversified
farming In the last two years.
The idea bnck of the diversified farming move
ment In the South is to make cotton the money
making crop and to utilize corn and other simple
farm crops to pay the expenses OF operating the
farm and to enable the South TO produce enough
foodstuffs to feed itself. Thus tenant farmer
who has 40 acres in cotton would, provided he
practiced diversified farming successfully make
from $500 TO 5000 year. nlI from the sale OF
his cotton. This would be net profit but would
not. Of course. Include the Increased value given
the land through the enrichment of the soil by
the croprotntion plan. The average tenant farm
er who practices crop rotation well can double
his cotton production within two three years. II
has been demonstrated.
This gives food for speculation TO the posi-
bllity which would follow the general adoption
of crop dIversincntIon throughout the South The

Washington, Nov. 2S. Sixty-three
men in three lifeboats are still missing
from the torpedoed American steamer
Actaeon, according to navy department
messages today. One boatload Of 20
was landed at Cape Finisterre.
Press dispatches previously reported
81 survivors landed in Spain, but did
not state how many were in the three
missing boats. The crew Of the Actaeon,
formerly the German steamship Adam
strum, seized at the opening Of the war,
was unofficially reported to consist of
5s men, including 81 Americans.
There was a naval gun crew of 13
men aboard and possibly others.
Secretary Daniels stated that beyond
the twenty landed yesterday and sixty
three missing, his reports contained no
further details.
Reports stated the steamer was tor
pedoed Sunday. 1t flew the flag of the
United States shipping board and was
commanded by Captain w. j. Johnson.
Indications are that the Astaeon was
sunk on her return voyage after safely
diseharging a valuable cargo. She dis
placed 5000 tons gross.
