is to be greater than ever and Is con-
tlnually to increase. Already the
American people use four pounds OF
cotton for clothing and domestic pur-
poses TO one pound OF wool. The
worlds demand for cotton Is to be
enormous. And much the greater part
of this demand must BE met by the
planters Of the South.
In the Far West experiments which
promise success are under way for the
purpose OF testing whether the soil and
climate there make II possible to culti-
vate cotton OF different fibre from that
which is grown In the South. IL this
experiment proves to be successful
this Far Western cotton will in no way
compete with that OF the South, for
the fibre Is used for a different pur-
pose than that Of Southern cotton.
There Is likely to be an enormous in
crease In the utilization of cotton for
other purpose than the making of
cloths or for domestic use. The
chances are that II will enter into
many industries. Already one manu-
featuring plant in Georgia is producing
hfty-three different kinds of cotton
products and the employment of cot
ton nore In the manufacture of GER
tain kinds OF domestic furnishing Is
so great that many carloads Of this
product are taken from the manu-
"a eturers to the domestic market. Cot
ton II Is certain will, with corn and
Wheat, continue to be the great Ameri-
can agricultural staple, which will
Iihd large market not only in the
united states but all over the world.

STEEL FAvORITE

Stock Exchange.
BY sRoApAN WALL.

New York, March 21.-Wnh a turn
over approaching 1.26o,ooo shares, to-
days stock market centered on the
peoples favorite, Steel common. The
urgent buying OF Steel common was
renected In. transactions of more than
A0,oO0 shares in the first hour.
strength Of the general market at
tracted an unusually large attend
ance at brokerage offices. Managers
OF large commission houses reported
that sentiment among their custom
ers was optimistic. and that their
clients would readily follow any lead
which indicated further expansion
in trading and higher prices for Sc
curities. These people who have been
caught short of the market, particu-
iarly Steel common. have profited
very little from the fact that ex-
periences the last twenty-five years
have shown 1t is an inopportune time
to become bearish on securities when
the sap begins to run up the trees.
The only dark spot in Wall Street
today was the heaviness OF the trac-
ton securities.
The fact that the stock market
closed active and around the best
prices OF the day led Wall Street TO
believe the advance will probably con-
tinue tomorrow.
Professional operators and broker
age houses, recently were prominent
as sellers of steel common, were al
at the front of the buying movement,
Reduction in the prices of steel had
a favorable influence on the stocks
of equipment companies because these
concerns can now go ahead without
any uncertainty as to what will hap
pen 20 the market, for their raw ma
terial.
Oil stocks came in for more atten-
tion at advances In price ranging
from to points.
Motor shares were in fair inquiry
because Of the announcement OF steel
prices.

London, EnGland.-To a young Polish
man of 2 goes the honor Of first strik-
ing for Poland in the battle between
the Ruthenians and the populace Of
Lernberg for the control OF that city.
The remarkable story Of how this
young man, who is only known as
Victor. the son OF a general, was
able to accomplish what he did. is
gradually being pleced together
In the early part Of November about
5000 Ruthenian nOndescript troops
concentrated around Lemberg and
finally entered the town. The pOpu-
lace was unable 10 defend itself
against the depredauons OF the sol
diers. and they later did as they
pleased.
The impossible then began TO oc-
cur, Victor, tire generals sOn. who
had been invalided home from the

pitched the only Ruthenian soldier
out, and at break-neck speed drove
to an ammunition depot.
There they supplied themselves with
revolvers. and then Ieaped away
again. followed by some Rutheniau
soldiers. other lads, the majority OF
them not more than II. soon Joined
them. and they were able TO barr-
cade themselves in a primary school
Soon they were reinforced by 200 more
and then thinking themselves strong
enough they ventured a sally for a
mile or so. and were successful
Adults and women soon joined the
boys and they were able to success
fully defend themselves against the
Ruthenians. Two srmistices were call

not listen.
Meanwhile men from nearby towns
threw up all work and came TO the
assistance OF the young defenders OF
