SNOWY COTTON

New Orleans. La, Dec. 25.-Fields
OF snow white cotton will disappear
in the southland within a few years,
according to leading planters, gin
ners. and mill experts, who attended
the worlds cotton conference in New

process and machine and when he

pearance Of an entirely new type Of
staple, and yarns OF high luster and

Crop Is Damaged
Already Mr.. Harvey has been
forced TO convert. a $4,000 demons

Memphis district Both Of these
plants win be run night and day on
the 1913 crop, which has been dam
aged BY frost and rains. and con
servatiye planters agree that they
will save the growers thousands Of
dollars.
The Spence Harvey process is revo-
lutionary. II Is based upon the fact
that cotton reaches its highest point
OF development in the closed boil and
from the moment the boil begins to
open Up to the time that Il Is fully
expanded and the staple can be re-
moved the cotton deteriorates- Cotton

Texas growers who had lost mil
lions OF dollars this season by rainy
weather that rotted the cotton In the
partly opened bolls declared that the
Harvey process would prove 10 be
one OF the most beneficial ideas given
TO the industry in years. and figured
that IL would save their state millions
OF dollars annually
There is a loss Of more than So
100000 a year due TO frost and cold

and the cotton in the hull is seriously
damaged Now the bolls can be
pulled and run through the Harvey

RESOLUTION

Whereas. there are in the United
States a large number OF aliens who
are making no effort to become nat
uralized and who have shown no dis
position to become identified with
citizenship. its duties and RESPONSE
biities. and
Whereas, there is evident an or
ganized attempt on the part of many
such aliens to overthrow the consti-
tuition of the United States. and
Whereas. it appears that there are
in this country more than 1000 aliens
who renounced their citizenship in
order to avoid military service, and
Whereas there is now pending in
Congress a certain measure provid-
ing for the deportation OF all such
aliens who renounced their citizen
ship and claimed exemption from
military service solely because of
their alienage,
Now. therefore, be it resolved, by
the Jerome Post OF the American
Legion that It strongly favors this
measure and that Idaho's represent
atives in Congress be urged to give
it their support and employ their best
efforts to secure its passage;
Be il further resolved that Jerome
Post OF the American Legion declares
itself the enemy OF Bolshevism and
any other form Of disloyalty that
seeks to undermine the constitution
and laws of this country and stands
ready to actively cooperate with the
proper authorities in suppressing the
Red element
Be it further resolved that copy
of these resolutions be forwarded to
each of Idaho's representatives in

THE POWER OF ADVERTISING

This week the Times man was
talking to one of the local business
men about advertising, as is natural
Tor newspaper man to do, and in
the course of the coversetion this
local business man made few re-
marks which appeared to the writer
as very much to the point, and we
think he would make good adver-
tising solicitor.
He said that if a merchant expect
ed his advertising to do all the work
and that he would be able to sit
down and do nothing after he in
serte his ad, he was misinterpretine
the use of advertising. He said that
advertising made people think of an
article, and often created a desire
to purchase it, but that the oppor-
tune moment for making sales had
to be watched and taken advantage
OF when it arrived; it is the live
bird that gets the worm, and not al
ways the early bird. He said that
without advertising it is no use to
try to enlarge your patronage from
what your location naturally gets
you; that no live advertiser could
tell in figures how many sales he
made from a given ad, because the
majority of sales were partly brought
about by the efforts of a courteous
salesman, artistic show case displays
and the numerous other devices
which successful merchant always
employs to sell goods. But, in sum
ming up the situation he said that
there is no better way to make peo-
pie think about an article, talk about
it, and have desire to possess it,
than by well written nicely printed
newspaper advertisements, end above
all you must keep everlastingly at
it, so the readers will not lose their
desire TO buy.
