 Cotton Products Included.
 It is proposed that these quaran- tines and restrictions covering move ment of products out of the non- cotton and regulated zones of the States of Texas and Louisiana shall apply to all cotton products other than oil, including seed cotton and cotton lint-baled or unbaled-cotton seed, cottonseed hulls, cotton seed cake and meal, bagging and other containers that have been used with respects to cotton, and shall include also provision for such inspection and cleaning of common carriers, ve- hicles, etc, as may be necessary to prevent the accidental transportation of cotton seed.
 The Department believes, and has been tentatively so advised, that this action on the part of Texas and Louisiana as co-operated in by the Federal Department of Agriculture will make it possible for the other cotton States of the South which have already issued quarantines or are contemplating issuing such quar- antines against Texas and Louisiana on account of the pink bollworm to accept the Federal quarantine as full lY meeting the needs or at least to limit such quarantine action to the areas and products covered by the Federal quarantine and by the quar- antines promulgated by the States of Texas and Louisiana.

Warm Monday Melts Sheet
of Glare Ice Over the City;
Skating Good, Coasting Poor

Although "creepers" were still in de-
mand Monday. weather conditions
were rapidly becoming normal in Rich
mond. Street cars, interurban lines
and railroads were operating upon
normal schedules, and pedestrians
found walking much easier.
Mondays weather forecast predicts
warmer weather, followed by rain or
snow. Either precipitation will aid in
Kidding the streets and pavements of
the coating of ice.
The lowest temperature of the pres
ent cold spell was reported Sunday,
when the mercury dropped to four
above zero. The maximum tempera'
ture Sunday was 1S, at one p. m. At
seven a. m. Monday the thermometer
read 10 above. The mercury rose rap.
idly until at noon, % degrees above
was reported.
Coasting at Roosevelt's hill was not
popular Sunday, as the cold weather
had frozen the surface so that sleds
could hardly make the turn at the
foot of the hill. However, several
parties were out.
The best ice skating in several
years now prevails at Morton Lake.
and the record crowds of the season
were out Sunday. The ice is frozen SO
thick that week of warm weather
will be required before skating will be
unsafe.

cording to John L. Rupe, head of the
board.
Plans, detailed by Edward Stevens
Boston architect, were presented to

weather, the meeting was postponed
until this week.
