WOULD NOT PLANT COTTON.
Heflin Sees High Prices for Staple, If
Farmers Hold Crop.

Washington, Dec. 26.-The advice
which w. A. Winburn, president Of
the Central of Georgia railroad, eX-
tends to farmers, namely, that they
sell their cotton and philosophically
pocket whatever losses accrue in the
transaction, is termed as ridiculous
by Senator j. Thomas Hefiin.
'"Mr. Winburn,' observed the
senator, "evidently looks at the situ-
alton solely from the standpoint Of
transaction. His argument that any
number of bales carried over will de-
press the next years crop is absurd
for the fact that the next crop will
not be one-half as great as this years
crop.
There is no question but that i'm
mediately after the holidays the
value of cotton will materially in
crease. 1t is definitely concluded by
Southern producers to reduce their
acreage another year by half There
will not be sufficient cotton for the
requirements of the world. The price
will range between 40 and so cents.
''In addition to advising farmers
to hold their cotton, would advise
them to produce no cotton next
season. If that which is in the hands
of the farmers today is held, it will
bring perhaps 81 per pound, and will
result in a profit as great as that to
be obtained from three crops of nor
NAL proportions

manuscript his reply to the address
of the deputation and was greatly
moved as he did so.
'tMore than once his voice choked,
especially when he referred to the
soldier boys and the mothers OF
those who had fallen in battle. 1t
was evident that he was voicing the
profoundest emotions of his. heart.
The whole occasion was inexpressi-
bly, solemn and tender.
''It was evident that the presl-
dents intellectual powers were in nc
way impaired, but the deputation felt
that it was nothing less than sad
that the great president of the United
States should have been brought to
such a stricken physical condition as
the result of his indefatigable labors
for his country and for humanity.
"They felt that this might be the
presidents final appeal to the con-
science of his countrymen in the SUI

THOSE ever-blOoming furbelows,
4 the pretty and dainty belongings
made of ribbons and laces, that women
love seem to have blOssomed out this
year in greater profusion than ever.
June usually sees them at their best
for they are important in trousseau
and are favorite gifts to brides and
graduates. Besides laces and ribbons,
georgette, net and silks play their
charming parts in making them, but
laces and ribbons are pre-eminent, as
usual, with much attention given to
flowers made of ribbon for trimmings.
Three boudoir caps and three cam
isoles, shown in the group above, will
serve to point the direction of fashions
whimsical breezes in these acceSsO-
rfeS. Camisoles remain important and
will as long as the sheereSt materials
are used for smocks and blouses and
for dresses. And where is the woman
with soul so dead as not. to appreci-
ate and own few bOudOir caps? They
make life tOlerable in the morning
hours, In the first cap and camisole

Overcoming insomnia.

The treatment Of insomnia or sleep
lessness is a simple matter. Psyche
analysis or a physical examination dis
closes the real source Of the disorder.
Insomnia has its foundation in loss
Of general health, worries, bad habits,
need Of ventilation and sunlight. Re
tire early at night, even If you cannot
sleep. This restores the normal habit.
Take a glassful of hot milk, few
crackers and a hot bath before you re-
tire. A cold pack tOahe head and a
hot water bottle to the feet help to
WOO slumber. A triple effervescent
bromide tabloid or two in a glassful
OF water before bedtime will usually
soothe the sufferer back into the land
OF Nod and a good eight hours Of
sleep.

take is absolutely pure and contains nc
harmful or habit producing drugs.
Such medicine is DR.. Kilmer'S Swamp.
Root. kidney, liver and bladder remedy,
The same standard of purity, strength
and excellence is maintained in every
bottle of Swamp Root.
1t is scientifically compounded from
vegetable herbs.
1t is not a stimulant and il taken in
teaspoonful doses.
1t is not recommended for everything.
1t is natures great helper in relieving
and overcoming kidney, liver and blad-
der troubles.
A sworn statement of purity is with
every bottle Of DR.. Kilmers Swamp.
Root.
If you need . medicine, you should
have the best. On sale at all drug stores
in bottles Of two sizes, medium and large.

for making things to match and has
used the same lace and net and ribbon
decorations for both. A close-ftting
cap, with cape at the back, is made
of lace in an AlencOn pattern and
two rows Of narrow satin ribbon are
tackled about the cap, after a full
pulled crown of net has been gathered
over 1t. Ends of the ribbon are brought
up over the crown and fastened to it.
Small wild roses made of ribbon are
set about the cap and from one Of
them at each side two short hanging
ends are finished with tiny chiffon
roses.
Another cap Of net Is edged with
point de- esprit and has narrow ribbon
bands over it, Where they intersect
tiny ribbon flowers are set and short
ends hang over the lace frill. 1t is
finished with a rosette and many ends
Of ribbon. Wide lace and tucked
georgette make the lovely cap with
frill lengthened toward the back, and
1t is ornamented with ribbon flowers
like those on the camisOle of georgette
and ribbon.

In most attics may be found one or
more pairs of chenille curtains so pop

transformed into pretty and service
able rugs. If the curtains are faded
dye them to harmonize with the room

foundation for the rugs use old worn

smoothly on these carpet foundations,

DEER PROFITABLE TO RAISE
Said 70 Require Little Care and Thrive
N on Diet Of Weeds and
Leaves.

Many years ago over most Of the
United States the deer roamed free
and happy; but he has been hunted
and driven back to give place to the
towns and cities, until, like the In
dian, he is a rare sight. In the last
few years, however, deer are growing
in favor as an easy and profitable kind
Of stock to raise.
Deer can thrive where a goat would
starve to death. They do not eat
green grass until there is nothing else
to eat They win reach up six feet
to get leaves from bushes and trees.
No shelter is required in winter, as
for other stock, as the deer prefer to
stay out In the open.
Deer have their young in June, usu-
ally twins, except the first year. They
are by far the healthiest animals there
are. A deer is a great homebody. He
likes to drink at his own drinking
place.
Deer are very cOntented to Craze
with the cows, keeping the weeds down
In the pasture.-Thrlft Magazine.

a fancy for wearing unusual negligees,
