from which it is only five days by
water to the big New Foundland
wooden mills. Mr.. Boog-Scott showed
the committee that present rates from
the western states by rail to Boston
can be lowered to the tune of as much
as 50 cents a pound of wool by water
from Galveston.
The loss to American wool grower
is about 1926, 100000, of which $75,-
900, 900 is on the shrinkage of the price
for raw wool; another similar sum
for the lower valuation of mutton and
lamb and still another like sum for
depreciation in the value Of breeding
stock.
The bill introduced by Senator
Smoot to place an embargo on for
eign wool is being watched with great
interest by wool growers throughout
the land. There is no doubt that the
present decline in wool is the direct
result of large i~mportations Of Aus
tralian and wool from other countries
competing with American wool.

blankets are to be woven OF virgin
wool direct from the farm.
This plan is being worked out in the
west and it has every chance Oh sue
cess. AT present there is no market
for wool and the warehouses IN the
wool states are filled because OF no
sales. The wool growers are es-
perate. TWO years ago they received
as high as Is and 50 cents a pound
and this year not a bid is made by
the buyers as a general rule, although
wooden clothing and blankets remain
practically as high as they have been
for more than a year.
The plan embraces the grading n
concentrating of the wool in central
warehouses and supplying it to desig-
mated wooden mills which are to manu-
facture it into blankets to be sold 20
hotels, hospitals and private individ-
uals. Agencies may be established in
every large city and the price OF these
blankets is to be about one-half the
present cost in the retail market, ac-
cording to careful calculations made
by the wool growers.

ROTUIISM AND DEATH.

Botulism is a disease caused by a germ
of decay in spoiled fruits and vegetables
which have been canned. 1t is among the
most deadly germs known to the medical
profession. It's malignant character is pro-
ven by the fact that the rate of deaths to
victims is 81 to $50. A serum has been
formed which will counteract the poison if
administered early in the illness.
Drastic purging and vomiting may save
the lives of the victims in mild cases if re-
sort is had to the treatment before the germs
get in their deadly work jim the entire
system Generally, however, contracting the
disease in violent form is equivalent to an
anticipated funeral.
The germ is little understood except in
-the effects. 1t is amazingly resistant to
measures that kill most germs. Boiling af-
ter the food is taken from the can does not
destroy it unless continued for several hours.
A pressure of fifteen pounds of steam for
ten minutes leaves the germ active. It's
destruction is possible only when the COM
modities are canned. There is no way eX-
cept by use of the senses of smell and taste
to determine whether the food is infected
or not.
Proper selection of material when canned
and compliance with scientific methods of
destroying and sterilization at that time are
the only guarantee against its existence.
Light and air destroy the poison, but it pre-
serves its vitality if sealed and kept in a
dark place.

The Credit Evil Continues.
From the Commerce Observer.

Despite the rosy financial condition OF
the great mass of people useless credit ex,
tension is still in vogue. The old habit
which was started through necessity after
the war between the states is perpetuateo
and fostered
Merchants and supply dealers, for some
reason or other, have not had the courage
backbone or whatever it requires to inaugu-
rate new trade system. Cotton crop
mortgages, time business at high prices
fearful risk-these are just as common as
was the case ten years ago; yet money Is
plentiful.
Along with the long credit evil is the
laxty in handling open accounts. The most
trifing individual can get credit and then
work when he pleases. A peculiar advant-
age is given the debt creator in that many
classes of wage earners are paid every day
or every week; yet, they are permitted to
run the open account for thirty days or
until they see fit to pay the account.
The south will never achieve its place
in the financial world and in business CIR
cles until the retailers of today get away
from the old habits of the years ago. 1t
takes determination, confidence, initiative
and stamina to do the new things and the
best things sometimes; but when the step
is made better results follow.

Is STILL KING.

A Manchester dispatch says the syndi-
Gates operating in the purchase of Lanca-
shire cotton mills are extending their bust
ness. The prices paid for the purchase of
mills are running up to six times the value
of the paid-up capital. 1t is early yet to
estimate what effect this movement will
have, but it is regarded as most important
and is being watched with the closest atten-
ton. and in some quarters with anxiety"
reads the dispatch.
This reminds The News that representa-
tives of the English syndicates are making
large investments in the cotton belt of the
south principally in the Mississippi Delta,
and gathering in 1ich cotton lands. Cotton
has not been dethroned.
