Paris, September IA large per-
centage Of the French women who
learned how to earn their own living
during the war have become so well
satisfied with their independent pos
itions that they will never again re-
turn to the position Of independence.
on husband or father.
This is a conclusion reached with
unanlmity by a number of writers
who have studied the subject. They
state 1t as one of the most important
social results of the war.
Before the war;" the director of
one of the largest banks in Paris is
quoted as saying, few women pre-
sented themselves at our windows.
During the five years of war they
came in great numbers | supposed
that after peace came life would re-
sumo its normal course. Nothing of
the sort. Right now we h fe more
women than men as clients
An inquiry pursued by a Paris
newspaper brought the same conclu-
sions. The question was formulated
in these terms; SHOULD a woman en-
gage in business ?" Hundreds Of let
ters poured in and most Of them
were from women who had made
their own way during the war. They
answered in the affirmative and de-
clared their intention of continuing
to live Independently of male rela-
tives.
The emancipation Of women is
having its effect upon the question Of
marriage and repopulation. While
legislation is being enacted and doz-
ems of societies are urging measures
to increase the number of marriages
thousands Of women bachelors" are
going their way with no thought of
marriage.
Many women who held official po-
sitions have been discharged to make
room for returned soldiers, but even
despite this, the weaker sex is maxi
ing steady inroads into official life.
Only few days ago a 'bachelorette"
was appointed chef du cabinet to the
Minister of Marine. the first woman
to hold such responsible position in
! the French government.

TEER|NC TRUSTS
Federal Trade Commission De-
nounces the International Harves-
ter Company and Other Concerns
Fake Dissolutions.

Washington, d. c., Sept. 1.-THE
international Harvester company Of
Chicago and other big manufacturers
of farm implements, together with
farm implement dealers, were brand
ed a gigantic prohteering trust IN a
report BY the Federal Trade Commits
sion made public today.
In an ivestigation ordered by the
Senate the commission says il found
that the manufacturers and dealers
fixed profiteering prices by mutual
understanding in restraint Of trade
and that the dissolution of the Inter
national Harvester company, negoti-
ated by Attorney General Gregory, Is
a sham
Its investigation. the trade commits
sion declared, disclosed that between
1914 and 1918 prices Of farm imple-
ments advanced rs per cent. Advances
in the costs and expenses of manu-
facurers and dealers did not warrant,
the commission said, an increase Of
this amount.
Discussing methods which the COM
mission charges officers and members
Of implement manufacturers associ-
ations used to bring about and MAIN
tain high price Jewels, the report
states that "price comparison meet
ings" were held at which advance in
prices recently made or intended to be
made were discussed"
Meetings were also held, it is
charged, at which inflated costs were
compared with the tacit understand
ing that prices would be shown by the
inflated costs" and at which "agree-
ments were made respecting uniform
terms" and the standardization of
implements and equipment"
The commissions report further
states that members of manufacture
er's associations made use of Sire
quent exchange of price lists by mail
so that members could check up on
others prices, terms and equipment
furnished" and the letters were sent
urging low price members to in
crease their prices"
Through these methods" the COM
mission asserts, beginning with
meetings held in February, 1916, and
continuing thru 1918, the manufacture
ers often arrived at uniform percent
ages of increases to be applied first
to one then another line of imple-
ments."
THAT the officers and members of
manufacturers associations realized,
the report continues, "that they were
engaged in Illegal activities is indica-
Ted by attempted secrecy that they
sought to throw over all price ac-
tivities."

MILLION BALES OF
COTTON ARE LOST
As Result of Deterioration in Arkan-
sas Crop Since August IS is Esti-
mate-Centinued Rains and
Boil Worm.
rrom The Arkansas Gazette

FROM The Arkansas Gazette
That the Arkansas cotton has
deteriorated greatly since August %
is the report of the bankers in nearly
all sections of the state.
Desiring to get accurate information
as to the situation over the state, F..
j. Bodman. vice president of the Union
and Mercantile Trust Company, who
is chairman of the Committee on Agri-
culture Of the Arkansas Bankers As
s0ciatiOn, sent a circular letter to
about $50 banks of the state, asking
for information about the crop stu
alton Thus far he has received re-
plies from 30, but these are so well
scattered over the state that they re-
present nearly all sections,
After studying the replies, II. M.
Eottrell, agriculturist of the Arkansas
Profitable Farming Bureau of the Lit
tie Rock Board of Commerce, said that
they seemed to indicate that the
southern part of the state and a strip
thru the central part of the state SEEM
ed to have suffered the worst from the
wet, rainy weather. The boil weevil
also has caused heavy damage in the
southern part of the state. The north
eastern part of the state has suffered
considerable loss thru damage to cot
ton, but the loss is not as serious as in
the southern and central portions In
The western part of the state reports
generally say that the cotton crop is in
much better condition than it was at
this time last year. This is not neces-
sarily an Indication that the crop is in
good condition, however, according to
Mr.. Cottrell, because this section of
the state suffered severely from the
drouth Of last summer.
Mr.. Cottrell says that as a rough
estimate, the state has lost possibly
from 100000 to 100000 bales as a
result of deterioration since August
rs. This has been due to excessive
rains, cold nights, rot, blighted plants
and boil weevil.
Damage is Illustrated.
Yesterday, Mr.. Bodman, chairman
of the Profitable Farming Bureau, re-
ceived letter and parcel post pack
age from Carl Hollis, cashier of the
Merchants and Planters Trust and
Savings Bank at Warren, which illus
trates the rapid deterioration 0ff cotton
IN that section. The parcel post pack
age contained the bolls of four stalks
of cotton that on August 10 showed
promise of big yield, but now have
only two bolls open on each stalk.
MIR. Hollis said the owner of the
cotton has IL acres in one field and
that on August 10 he inspected this
field with a party of friends and all
agreed the cotton would yield be-
tween 1,l00 and 200 pounds cotton
seed per acre. 1t began raining soon
after that and the boil weevil came,
and on September 4, this cotton field
was in the condition as explained by
Mr. Hollis.
Mr.. Hollis wrote: II find many
of our farmers reporting just this
same condition, and it does look like
VIC are in for bad crop, and unless
steps are taken to secure fair price
for this cotton that is, 50 to 40
cents--we are in for bad season"
The man from whose field the box
of cotton was taken has crop Of 81
acres He says now he will be sur
prised if he gets three bales from q
acres.

Il You Need a Medicine
You Should IlaVe the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation 1 have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has SO large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success OF DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamn-Root by Parcels Post. Address
