 COTTON AND GERMANY
 In the cotton raising and manufactur- ing industry there prevails a good deal of anxiety. The condition is attributed to various causes but not always to the real one, Germany may be pointed out as one of the causes for the depres- sion in the cotton growing industry. For that empire was accustomed to buy before the war, from the United States each year nearly two and one half million bales of cotton. Fut in the first six months of the present fiscal year Germany bought only little over 100000 bales of American cotton. There was great market partially lost and which may be unrecovered for a long time.
 So also with wool. the wool growers of the United States have been alarmed ever the situation in that market But 1t is part due to the loss of Ger many's market for American wool. Up to the time of the European war Ger many bought and imported each year approximately 450,000, 900 pounds of wool. She had practically ceased to buy wool, probably because difficulty is found in raising funds for the payment of it. But that loss of that market un- doubtedly explains the great accumula- ton of the unsold wool which is one of

What should I do to remove the dark
stains from my baby's teethg Are
they decayed!
Quite often the first teeth become
stained shortly after they have erupt
ed. Sometimes this is an indication
of decay, but more often is sim
pie alkaline stain that may be easily
removed with the aid of soft moist
rag dipped in precipitated chalk and
applied by rubbing gently so as not
to cause any irritation of the gums
or any pain. This teaches the child
early in life, the Importance of clean
ing the teeth and starts a good ha-
bit. Good habits are as easily start
ed rs bad ones. Take the child TO
your family dentist at least twice n
year and let him examine the mouth
and then gently clean them. This
painless lite process teaches the child
to have confidence in the dentist and
paves the way very nicely for any
more serious work that has to be per
formed later.
