100000 DOLLAR FUND TO
ADVERTISE TEA in AMERICA
Five-Year Publicity Campaign Will
Be Waged by Exporters. Two Com
mittees Will Direct Work

PHILADELPHIA, PA five-year
publicity campaign, to be waged at
a cost of at least $25O,OOO annually,
has been decreed by the tea trade to
increase the consumption of this bev-
erage in the United States Agreed
that there was no reason why Amer
lea should have the lowest per cap
tia consumption of any tea-drinking
nation, the association resolved to
take steps to raise fund of at least
$250,000 a year to be expended in
advertising the virtues of tea.
Announcement was made yester-
day that it was resolved by unani-
nous vote, taken at the general meet
ing of the Tea Trade Association,
that the fund is to be raised by all
exporters contributing one-ffth of
one per cent per pound on every
shipment of tea to the United States.
This sum is to be matched by a like
donation from the growers and plant
ers in the tea producing countries, as
Japan, India, Java, Congo and the
Formosas. With this combined fund,
which will be managed by the Tea
Promotion Council, consisting of
thirty-six members, the interests plan
to cause more tea to be consumed,
thereby creating a greater market.

SOME FARMERS CUT
ACREAGE 50 PER CENT
PRACTICALLY EVERY GROWER
OF COTTON IN THE SOUTH
HAS BEEN REACHED.

Enormous as the task has been
practically every farmer in the South
has been reached with the proposition
for cotton reduction acreage, through
the efforts Of business men, bankers
and agricultural agents, using such
agencies as literature, lectures and
personal interviews. Reports from the
cotton states of the South received
by the cotton acreage reduction cam
paign committee indicate that there
will be a substantial reduction in the
1919 crop.
There are many instances where
the condition Of the soil is such that
cotton alone can be grown proftably,
so many farmers think. To these men
agricultural agents have gone, an
alyzed the soil in many instances,
and shown the farmers where other
crops can be grown perhaps more
proftably than cotton. Farmers
throughout the South are benefiting
immeasureably by the acreage reduc-
ton campaign, not only in the direct
results of the campaign, such as the
reduction of the acreage, but also
stabilizing of the market, but also
in the fact that they are learning the
proper kind of crop rotation and di-
versifcation.
In Texas much activity is being
shown. The Tyler Chamber of Com
merce is checking the name of every
Smith county farmer who has or has
not pledged a reduction of cotton
acreage. By this method it is plann-
ed to reach every farmer and explain
to him the value of reduction, if he
does not understand it, and to keep
a record if he understands but is un-
willing to reduce in 1919. Some far
mers are reducing their acreage more
than so per cent, according to fig
ures submitted to the campaign COM
mittee, and some are planting food
stuffs entirely and raising hogs which
they can feed from their own crops.

SPEEDING AUTO JERKS
OFF TAIL OF A HORSE
UNUSUAL MISHAP BEFALLS A
PAIR OF LOVERS JOGGING
LEISURELY ALONG ROAD.

FORNEG, TeXas.-John Hamlin's
roam mares tail was jerked out by
the roots, his buggy wrecked and he
and his sweetheart severely hurt in
very peculiar accident here. 1t all
happened when the mares tail got
mixed up with the windshield of a
passing automobile.
John had just started out for a
drive with his sweetheart. They were
moping along the road talking of
things which were going to happen
in the future. The roam mare had
been accustomed to these drives and
was taking things easy. In fact, she
was taking it so easy that she did not
notice another young man and his
sweetheart coming in an automobile.
But they were coming, and coming
at a pretty good clip.
Just as the car was fitting by the
roam mare made a move with her tail
to f1eck a fly from her side. The tail
struck in the rod of the autos wind
shield-and stuck. The mares tail
was yanked off at the hips and the
animal was jerked over into the bug
gy and laps of Hamlin and his sweet
heart. The buggy was wrecked and
man and girl went down with it. The
mare soon found her bearing, even
with the loss of her tail. She rolled
off the bruised lovers and they finally
got to their feet and staggered to the
roadside, where they sat down to wait
for assistance.
The car went its way with roan's
tail flying in the breeze. Hamlin does
not know the occupants of the car.
He found the mares tail a mile down
the road. He declares he will now
purchase an auto and take his rides
in that in the future
