Crop W eather Report

Summary of weather and crop condition in the cotton region for the week ending October 2S, 1919.
 Unseasonably high temperatures and moderate to heavy rains char acterized the weather of the week in the cotton belt, which, in gener- al. was very unfayorable for cot ton. Little to no progress was made in picking in nearly all sec lions except good progress in South Carolina, where 1t is farth- season. Heavy rains and deficit CT advanced than average for the sunshine caused slight to consid- erable damage in all except the more eastern States, causing bolls to decay, seed to sprout, and dis coloration. Progress of the late crop in North Carolina was satis- factory, but elsewhere in north ern districts very poor. Truck crops were benefited by the rains in most southern States, but 1t continued too wet in the West Gulf States.

Soft Drinks Falsely Labeled

Prohibition has been followed by a flood of soft drinks of every conceivable type and variety, many of which are falsely labeled, the Government contends. Liter ally. hundreds of new beverages have been rushed to the soda fountains and ade stands by makers who have not informed themselves of the provisions ot the food and drugs act directly concerning their industry. The Bureau of Chemistry of the Uni ted States Department of Agrlcul- ture, which enforces this act finds that a principal source of difficult tv for numerous makers of soft drinks is their regard of an opin- ion issued by the bureau several years ago, that such terms as ade. punch. crush, and smash, when used in conjunction with the name of fruit, can be applied correctly only to beverages, elth- CT still or carbonated, which con tain the fruit or juices of the frun named. Such terms should not be applied to products favored only with essential oils or essences.
 Labels which the bureau de clares to he false have been re- sorted to by many soft drink manufacturers in an effort to eX- plain the cloudy appearance of fheir products. With the use of extracts made with alcohol render ed unlawful or inadvisable, soft drink manufacturers have resort ed to extracts which are in the form of emulsions. Speaking generally, these are just as good as the alcoholic extracts, but when used in. drinks give the latter a cloudy appearance. This charac- teristic of many of the new bev- erages has lead manufacturers to attempt an explanation by em- blowing workings and illustrations in their labels which specifically state or imply that the beverage contains fruit juice or fruit pulp whereas their product is really favored only with essential oils or essences.

To Make Main Street Full Width

In addition to the work of put ting in the Bankhead Highway on three blocks of Main street, the city has made arrangements to gravel the street to the curb line on both sides making the street about 50 feet from curb to curb.
 The Bankhead portion is to be p feet wide mhich will leave about 14 feet on each side to be put in by the town. This will make Main street equal to that of any city in the country.
 After this is done the other streets should be commenced on and the work done as rapidly as the town can do 1t.
 It will draw patronage to Car lisle that is now going elsewhere, if we will get the other roads leading into town in good shape. It will make people feel more like coming here to trade and will give our own people advantage of good streets as well.
