HOW COTTON CAME UP-By Frederic j. HaSkn

blockades which were then becoming tighter
and tighter. Sweden, Holland, England.
Frace and Spain got most of it. A1good part
of that which went to Sweden and 10 Hol-
land no doubt found it's way ultimately to
Germany At this time some Of the last
direct shipments to Germany were made
from this port, and it is said that they were
made at prices far in advance OF the market
and brought enormous profits 10 certain
dealers. The market prices for these large
shipments, just before shipping was tied up,
were from 8 to 9 cents for good middllng
cotton The fact that there was great
rush to sell at such prices shows that none
anticipated the rise that was coming.
Nevertheless that rise began Immediately,
as an inevitable result of war conditions anu
continued steadily up to this year. Al the
end of 1915 middling cotton was at IL Genus
a year later it was around 10 cents; IN late
1919 it was % cents. Sales were Tree ana
steady at all these prices.
Mr. Teasdale reports that at present sales
ne cotton are abnormally small. There is
plenty Of tonnage in the harbor, but lack
of buyers at the current very hlgn prices.
great many people seem to think that cot
ton nrices have reached their peak and are
going to come down, though no suaaen OF
disturbing descent is looked for. Inc eX-
change rate, which makes the price still
higher, for all foreign buyers, is also fac
tor in the present dull market. during
recent week only $50 bales OF cotton were
sold here, which is for Savannah, practical
ly no cotton at all. Nevertheless, everyone
here is confident and satisfied, for 1t is clear
that the demand will keep cotton at rela-
lively very high price for long time to
come. The tendency is to keep the co<eon
in the warehouses rather than sell at
lower figure. Savannah now has warehouse
facilities for 100000 bales of cotton, and
there are said to be about 10000 bales in
these warehouses. On the other hand, 1t
is said that there only about 10000
bales of cotton in New York which could
be delivered on contract.
Meantime the south has been enjoying
ideal cotton weather Last fall was long,
dry, hot one, with no frost until December,
and that is the kind of weather which makes
the fiber grow long and gladdens the hearts
of Georgians
In front of the cotton exchange building
here is little patch of cotton growing in
a circular flower bed twenty feet wide, and
that little patch is veritable barometer of
the fortunes of the cotton-groWing south.
The brokers and shippers here look at it
every day, noting eagerly how the weather
and other influences affect it. Last fall it
flourished beautifully for time, and then
the boil weeyil made it's appearance.

BONUS FOR SOLDIERS
By DR.. Frank Crane

A proposition is now being advanced to
pay bonus of money to each man who en-
listed in the late war.
The argument on one hand is that the
country owes these soldiers a debt, that they
left their jobs and went away to fight and
endured all manner of hardships and exposed
themselves to peril while the rest of us stay
ed at home, and that while shipyard work
ers were getting $12 day working at nome
in safety the drafted men were Drawing sub
marines and lying in trenches and getting
81 day.
All this is true enough, but the conclusion
that we can pay our obligation in money to
the defenders of our country is non Sc
quitur.
1t is not that pension or bonus to them
would be too much to ask, but that 1t is not
enough.
And it is the wrong kind Of pay. The man
who goes to risk his life for his country lays
us under an obligation we can never dis
charge To attempt to measure it in terms
of cash is an insult.
Can you pay a mother any sum that will
Justly remunerate her for the love and care
and sacrifice she has made for her child?
The only fit pay is for the child to strive to
be worthy of her pains, to love her, honor
her and live for her.
Will present of 500 or 100000 be
adequate pay to a friend who risks his life
to save yours? No return can satisfy him
but your eternal gratitude and loyalty.
You cannot pay in money a soldier for
| his heroism any more than you can pay in
| money wife for her virtue, a parent for
his care a friend for his loyalty, or the
| beloved woman for her smiles and favor.
The two. things, heroism and money. have
no common denomination. At school we
| learned that you cannot subtract potatoes
| from apples, and that no number of times
so many marbles will make so many pencils
| If you plant wheat you do not raise oats
neither do men gather figs from thistles
The soldiers Of our great army went forth
from high impulse to save this country:
and 'he only way to pay them is to honor
| them by making this country worth saving
Those of them that were wounded should
! ne cared for, those that were incapactated
should receive our most generous aid. The
widows and orphans have claim upon our
pension funds. These things are of course
But the attempt by any money bonus to
even up the wage of them that gave their
lives for us shows failure to appreciate
values.
Captain Burns, who served at St. Mihiel
was recently before a congressional commit
| tee, and testified. He had, he said, gained
something from his war service of far great
er value to him than any man could have
achieved by work in the shipyards at S12
day.

clared, land that is something they do not

either the Reeds and the Borahs on the one
hand or on the other those who would see
the Treaty fail altogether of ratification
rather than modify a word Of the original
text 1t does not suit the Irreconciables of
either faction. But it suits, we have no doubt,
the vast majority of Americans and the
vast majority of Georgians. 1t points
the one way to speedy, just. and honorable
peace.
If the man whom this remarkable letter
and statement reveal is not the soul of Wig
orous Americanism, then that virtue never
had an exemplar. If his is not the spirit of
democracy democracy born of great SYM
pathies and guided by common sense, the
democracy of Washington and of Jefferson
then surely that principle has persisted from
the earth. Yet, it is this American, this
democrat whom the State Executive Commit
tee refuses to let the voters of Georgia pass
upon in their forthcoming Presidential pri-
mary Is it because of his devotion to the
nations highest interests and his fidelity to
the rank and file that the Committee has
taken it's arbitrary stand? Or is it because
he places the country's welfare above the
mere game of partisanship and declines to
kowtow to professional politicians? Certain
lv the Committee has given the people OF
Georgia no tenable excuse for its autocratlc
Indifference to their rights; and certainly no
urinary subject to such restrictions Will be
more than a travesty upon all that is demo-
cratic and just.

SAVANNAH Ca, March 14.-With the
price of middling cotton from 35 to 40 cents
a pound, and sea island cotton selling at the
fabulous price of 81 a pound, Savannah is
eniovine some of the most prosperous days
in q long and, on the whole, remarkably
PROSPEROUS history. Her harbor is filled with
shipping-and she now has slips for no less
than seyenty-five vessels. Her streets are
crowded with motor cars and with dressed
up, prosperous looking people. Her mer-
chants are doing record business. Every
body seems to be chock full OF money, mu-
nicipal pride and confidence in the future
rh;s condition in Savannah is typical OF
tho wonderful recovery which the whole cot
ton-nroducing south has made since the dire
DAYS of 1914 when cotton was down 10
cents a pound, and couldn't be sold at that

dent Wilson called upon all good cltlzens

One man here in Savannah, who bought Two
bales at that time for about $50 bale Tor
got about them, and did not sell them until
a few days ago. He received about SzUO d
bale for his cotton. AND SO lar as w. II.
Teasdale, secretary Of the cotton exchange
here is aware, he is the only man who bought
cotton when it was down and held for the
nresent rise After all, nearly all really
great speculative chances are missed. ANY
man who had had sense enough to put
few thousand dollars in cotton in 1914, ana
to hold it until this year could have more
than tripled his money. A few may nave
done it, but it was not at all generally done.
Savannah's great prosperity is explained
by the simple fact that, while the cost or
living has gone up 80 to 100 per cent, the
cost of cotton has gone up about 900 per
cent in the same length Of time. Hence
everyone having to do with cotton is lar
ahead of the game. Dealers have made big
money, and so have growers. The country
men are all riding around in cars. Inc
shipbulding here has also been consider
able factor in the improvement OF condl-
tions.
Things here were perhaps at their worst
in November 1914, when, according to Mr.,
Teasdale, ordinary middling cotton sold for
about 6 cents and sea island cotton for
5Sout 10 cents pound, with market hard
to find. By the first of the following year
trade was brisk, and in February, 1915, Sa-
vannah shipped more cotton than in any
other month in her history, nearly third
of a million bales of upland cotton and
lintels leaving the port, and over thousand
bales of sea island cotton This cotton was

1t will be observed from the foregoing
table that Georgia ranks first, with nine COWS
that produce SO pounds or more of butterfat,
and that the average production of the nine
cows far exceeds the 5O-pound requirement
and, also, exceeds the average production of
any other Southern State.
According to the State College of Agri-
culture, J. R. Humphrey, of Acworth, en-
joys the distinction of breeding and owning
the best producing Jersey in the State, and
one of the best in the United States. The
figures are not available, but the record shows
that on a thirty-day test Mr.. Humphrey S

PLANTS AND HUMANS
By H. Addington Bruce


rrERE is little story of much practical
II significance from more than one point OF
view 1t was told by Mrs Eva Whiting
White, of Boston, at child welfare confer
ence:
CITY planted a window-box in all hope at the
beginning of summer. She nursed her seed
lings with great care, and was elated when the
first shoots appeared
"From day to day she watched her plants
and vines grow, but with each day they grew
weaker and more sickly, without symmetry or
beauty.
"Finaly they died altogether in the vitiated
develop into womanhood under. precisely the
atmosphere. Yet the child was expected to
same conditions"
Told by Mrs. White for the special purpose
of helping her hearers to appreciate the ire
mendous need for better housing for the poor
this little story has personal application for
everybody, whether poor or Well-to-do.
There are many, many people who, not from
necessity, but from ignorance or carelessness.
live under housing conditions in which plants
will not thrive. These same conditions, though
they may not suspect it, are injurious to them
as we'll as to their plants.
They marvel at their inability to keep their
ferns or cyclamens geraniums in good con-
dition, no matter how we'll tended Perhaps
they hit on the truth, after much speculation
"The house is too dark" they conclude. Or,
"the air is too dry" Or, "there is too much
heat"
But do they take steps to improve matters,
| so that their plants will have a fair chance?
Sometimes they do. More often they merely
abandon all attempt to keep houseplants.
And they themselves continue to exiSt-after
a fashion-under the conditions which have been
proved most unhealthy for plants.
They feel tired and ailing much of the time;
they are subject to colds; perhaps they have
trouble in sleeping. All of which indicates a
lowered vitality, caused at least in part in the
unfavorable factors fatal to the plants.
House plants, in fine, afford unfailing
index to living conditions for humans. Houses
in which plants will not do we'll houses
in which humans need not expect to be well.
This lis a point to be kept in mind by all
Of us, but particularly by those of US who
have learned by repeated experience that they
cannot grow vigorous house plants, care for
them as they may.

Spelling BY Ear

OP6IIETIS " Le'7 -
A simplified spelling society in London
has developed form Of language with
one sound, one symbol notation OF letters
and diagraphs. A sample of the system IN
operation is furnished as follows:
= "Wuns upon a tym a rich lord and hiz
wyf had litel boi and litel gerl hoom

mudher bekame veri i'll. In short tym

The system looks very much like spelling
nv ear. It ought not to require any very
complicated system Of rules. In fact, many
people habitually spell by ear without the
authority of the societys diction. There are
many people who have given up further at
tempts at mastering English as it is spelled
today, and these would welcome phonetic
reform with great joy.-sEATTLR POST

 Following the death of Hon. Charles A. Sulzer on the 18th of last April Mir. Raffelson was ap- pointed a special administrator to straighten up the accounts.
 This morning Mr. Raffelson was asked concerning the report that the Jumbo mine has been sold. He said:
 T cannot say positively, but 1 think there is very little doubt that the Alaska Industrial com- pany of which William Sulzer is the head, have sold the Jumbo mine to Jack Fields of New York and Edward Jones of Baltimore. According to information which 1 consider reliable, operations will soon be resumed at the Jumbo mine. 1 am also informed that machinery has been bought for a concentrator which will be built and put into operation at as early a date as possible. e.'
 Jack Fields. one of the new owners, is a well known mining engineer, and is not a stranger in Alaska.
