Advice OF special timeliness is

issued by Director r. s. Wilson Of
the Mississippi extension force.
pleading with the farmers OF the
state NOT to dispose o: their planting
cottoneseed Of good quality. despite
teupting prices. Mr.. Wilson's COM
plete statement is as follows:
Owing to unusual rains during
the fall season. all cotton not
gathered before October has been
more or less damaged in the field.
This condition applies also to seed.
The most serious aspect OF the
fact now is that most people have
disposed of their early seed and the
prospect is that good planting seed
will be scarce To use damaged
seed for planting will be disastrous
to next years crop. Notwithstand-
ing the attractive prices offered at
the present for good seed. therefore.
farmers will make 4 serious mistake
to dispose Of any seed.stili on hand
from cotton gathered in September
or early October.
Z Tests have repeatedly proved
that the native grown seed gives
better results than seed imported
nom long distance. Furthermore,
to order seed from out Of the state
may lay US liable TO unfair deals,
as we can not always be sure What
we are buying. 1t il probable. also,
that II it is is established that good
seed is scarce. it will be held next

PARIS, June s.-The strike situation
centres to-day about the uncertainty in
regard to what action may be taken by
the railway workers of France. The
central body Of the railway men has left
the question OF a general strike to the
separate action of thirty-nine syndicates
and a decision is not expected before
Tuesday.
Grave possibilities will be entailed II
a strike should be decided upon. The
movement of war materials and of troops
will be Seriously inpeded, especially of
American troops en- route to ports of
embarkation. Should the workmen be
called to the colors and compelled as
soldiers to operate the trains, as was
done In similar circumstances in Pre-
mier Brands time, the public and the
troops, who already are chafing under
the delay in mobilization, would be much
incensed.
The prediction is made, apparently on
excellent authority, that a general strike
is improbable now, but there are many
indications that the delay may be merely

Somebody at tho college conceived the

another attack on the Attorney General,
whose homo In Washington was bombed
several days ago.
Accordingly every man In the college
who had seen war servlce-and they
are counted by scores-donned his uni
form and became member OF the
guard of honor. At the same time scores
of others, all equipped with hair trigger
automatic revolvers, volunteered them
selves for service
All these precautions were in addition
to those taken by the various branches
OF the Government secret service. Not
content with the scrutiny given by the

watch every entrance to the wide spread

houses will play in attempting to bring
pressure on the Senate.
1t Is the firm belief here OF some OF
the members of the Foreign Relations
Committee that much valuable informa-
ton may be obtained by turning the
spotlight OF publicity on the connection
between international financiers and the
league covenant. According TO present
the councils of financial institutions
which are pressing for immediate ratifica-
ton may spend uncomfortable hours be-
fore the committee. Senator Borah, for
example, believes there are some men
in the United States who would sell
their country to trade with Germany"
The argument that unless the treaty is
signed there will be no financial rela-
tons or trade between the United States
and Germany will be met by the ques-
ton who is the man who wants to
trade with Germany
An important point which will be en-
phasized by way of attempting to estab-
! fish link between big financial interests
and the treaty leak will be the obvious
necessity OF big business knowing details
of the treaty text before unqualifiedly
