Before the war Great Britain was
a close second TO the United States in

on her pre-war scale, The increased

Japan has focused the attention of
British cotton manufacturers even
more sharply than before the war
on the question of their own future
supply Of raw cotton.
I'm 1919 the situation was very
carefully considered by committee
OF the British Board OF Trades, which
was appointed to investigate the posi-

war. Every effort will doubtless be
made with the recommendations OF

Great Britain from her dependence

Do Great Britain and Japan Hope
to Free Themselves From u. S. Cotton?

Plans on the part of both Great
Britain and Japan to free themselves
from dependence upon America for
cotton are discussed by the National
Bank of Commerce IN New York in
its monthly review OF business condi-
tons presented in its ma gaZ.ne, Com
merce Monthly for July. India.
Egypt. the Soudan and the African
colonies are looked TO by the British
as likely sources OF an increased cot
ton supply within the empire. the
bank says. while Japan aims to make
Korea its chief source.
1t is pointed out by the bank. how
ever. that In most of the countries
naturally suited for cotton growing
the obstacles presented are so great
that. the American cotton growing in
dustry may for long time to come
rest secure in its position as leader OF
the world
In reviewing the general cotton sftu-
alton the bank shows the serious eff
feet OF the war upon American raw
cotton exports, placing the pre-war
average at S.s39,S04 bales OF 500
pounds. for the fiscal year 1916 this
had fallen 10 s.l6s,l40 bales and by
1918 to only 4.s41,023 bales.
For the fiscal year ending June 80,
1919, however, an improvement to
5,24l.o00 bales is estimated on the
basis of the first ten months.

world at the present time Is some

SYNOPSIS OF
CROPCONDITIONS

w. P. Stewart of the Milwaukee
weather office has issued the follow
ing synopsis of weather and crop con-
ditions in Wisconsin for the week end
ing Tuesday, April 8:
Temperature and moisture were in
general favorable for farm work and
vegetable growth. The first two or
three days were cool with night tenn
peratures below freezing, but the re-
ma nder of the period was more favor
able; good rains were general and
the ground is in fine condition Win
ter wheat, rye, clover, and ranges are
beginning to- look green and appar-
emily have passed the winter in fair
to good condition. Winter killing no
where appears to have been serious,
while in some places it was unusually
light. Some oats, spring wheat, and
barley have been sown and the ground
has been prepared for corn in few
localities. With favorable weather
during the next two weeks spring
planting will begin in earnest. Dry,
warm weather with plenty of sunshine
would be most helpful.

FARMERS MAKE
$8.75 AN HOUR

Sank county grain growers have a
chance to increase their profits this
year by treating their seed with for
maldehyde before planting. Few
things bring as large returns consid-
.ng the amount of time and effort
spent in treating the seed, according
TO plant disease men at the Wisconsin
College of Agriculture.
The state suffered three per cent
loss in cereal grains last year on ac-
count of smut At this rate a 20-acre
field of oats, under conditions of last
year, suffered a smut loss of 80 bush
els. At so cents bushel the loss on
the field was SIS.
With the work Of two men for one
hour and the expenditure of so cents
for formaldehyde to treat the seed this
loss could have been avoided. In 9TH
er words each man would have been
paid $S75 for one hour of work.

Year and Half Required to Com
plete Return Of Americans From
Europe

The navy department does not ex
pect to complete the task OF bringing
the American army out of Europe be
fore a year from next September.
This fact was revealed yesterday at
Washington in the course of CONVEX
station between Rear Admiral Mexican
chief of operations, and Acting Secre
1afy of the Navy Roosevelt, at a public
reception to Rear Admiral Sims, who
mas Just returned from overseas.
THE possibility Of holding a naval
review at New York was being dis
cussed when Ii was pointed out that
because of the large number of war
ships now being utilized as transports,
1t would be impossible to have re-
view until this work was completed
1t was then that Mexican expressed
the belief that it would not be until
September, 1920.
