So great has been the success
ofgrowers Of Egyptian cotton, in
the Southwest, ,particuiArly In
Arizona, thas the acreage to, be
planted this year win probably
greatly exceed that of 1919,
which was approximately 700, 900.
Some predictions arethat the TO.
tai planting will be as. much Is
$50, 900 acres T.. ~ The foothold
which Egyptian cotton has gain
ed in this country a. indicated by
these figures is the direct result
81 many years of experimental
and extention work carried on by
the United States Department Of
Agriculture. ...
The Egyptian cotton now be.
ing grown 10 extensively 10 .
long staple variety which has
come to be distinct from any
long staple cotton grown in Egypt
by reason of scientific plant
breeding conducted by Federal
specialists. Withsths exception
Of Sea Island, now practically
destroyed by tho boil ,weevil, and
the Meade, NOT yet established
ON large scale, there is nothing
in this country to compare with
this American Egyptian cotton
Because of:its superior quality
and special itness for making
thread susonohile tire fabric,
and other pFoducts, . strong de-
mand Tor i .hSs.d developed. ).
All Of the Egyptian cotton seed
now planted III the Salt River
valley IN AriHona and in the
Imperial Valley is Of the Pima
variety, developed by. the Fsder.

is called to this fact because CON-
.mercial interests SIieK have nm

Of this cotton ON . laFss scale in

THE NORTHWEST

Portland Is the financial, COM
mercial and one of the shipping
centers of this great northwest
~ country. 1t is city of over
> three hundred Thousand people
and is more American in it's citi-
zenship than Memphis, New Or
leans or Birmingham. A large
per cent of the people here came
from other sections, principally
from the middle west. While
we have met quite few souther-
ners since coming here we are
still looking for our first Missis-
sippian. This is one Of the prin-
cipal seaports of the west coast
and ships from japan, China and
other oriental countries can he
seen in port most any day. :
Portland is called the Rose
City from the fact that roses
thrive so we'll here and every
home prides itself in the varie-
ties of roses grown on the yards.
This is the natural home of all
the varieties of fruits. 1t is
nothing to see apple orchards fif-
ty years of age. Raspberries,
Logan berries "a cross between
the raspberries and the blackber-
ries) and the strawberries are the
principal berry crops. Pears,
peaches, rlums, cherries, prunes.
English walnuts, ;filberts as well.
as various other kinds Of fruits
and vegetables grow to perfec-
tion. The " oods are full of dog
wood as in the South, the holly is
everywhere while the magnolia
grows wild, which gives you an
idea of what the soil and climate
must be to produce such varied
assortment of frnits, flowers and
I vegetables. Fir trees from six to
eight feet in diameter and hun
dred feet to the first limb gives
you an idea of the kind OF lumI
Der to be had here. In Denver il
is rare sight to see house built
out of lumber while here the
brick residence is rare occur
renee.
Living expenses are no more
than In Philadelphia. Dry goods
are cheaper, meats are much
cheaper while fruits and vsgeta.s
bles are so plentiful they are
cheap. A box or bushel of very
fine apples can be bought for q
dollar. Dairying and cheesemak-
ing are two big industries. ]
have seen more cheese In the
past few weeks than / have seen
the rest of my life. One county
here produced over two million
pounds of cheese the past year.
The six gallon Holstein is the COW
of this country, while the white
leghorn hen is mistress OF the
barnyard. Humid eds OF poultry
men make a splendid living here
on an acre Of ground and q bunch
of white leghorn hens, the eggs
bringing rarely less than 45 cents
and more often so or 70 cents.
There are very few negroes
here. We have seen less than
two dozen since we have been
here. While there are quite "a
few Chinese and Japanese here
there is a much smaller number
than you would suppose, this be-
ing one of the principal ports OF
entry from the Orient.
For the benefit OF my fishing
friends | will in some future notes
tell something of the fishing in
dustry, which is one of the big
industries OF this country.
I'll l.. Ray.

An-Day Meeting

The regular monthly all-day meet
ing of the Woman's Missionary So
ciety of the Methodist church was
held on Friday, November 18th, at
the home of Mrs. Lizzie Wilson on
North Sycamore street. 1t was the
first real winter day we had had,
but the chill Of the outside atmos-
phere was forgotten in the COM
fort of the attractive home, and the
warmth of hospitality extended the
forty five guests present.
Mrs. Herbert Moss was the leader
of the devotional and literary pro-
gram. The subject for the day was :
"The City Church" The theme for
the devotional was Gin Christ, the
Inspiration to Service to Men," DIR.
Clark's splendid talk on "The Origin
and Purpose Of the Church." Mrs.
]. Fl. Stephenson's article on "The
City Church in the Program of To-
day." Mrs. A. M. Bourne's "Ten
Reasons Why I Love My Church."
and Mrs. Chas. REFS "Ten Places
Where I Could Improve My Church,"
were all most interesting and help
full. ' His
At the conclusion Of the program,
the president, Mrs. Myers, conducted
the Bible Study, the book Of John
being the subject for study. After
a delightful lunch at the noon hour
the Afternoon session was called to
order for business. One important
feature of the business session was
the unanimous vote of the society to
send box Of clothing to the Poles,
the Woman's Missionary Council
having taken up Relief Work in Po-
land.
A short memorial service was held
for Mrs. Mamie. Berkeley, one of the
oldest and most faithful members of
the society, who entered into rest
on Sunday, November 7. Mrs. Chas.
Oldham was the leader Of this i'm
pressive service. After reading the
ninety-first Psalm and the singing
of the hymn, "How Firm Founda-
tion," Mrs. Oldham paid very love-
ly tribute to the life and character
of Mrs. Berkeley, concluding her re-
marks by reading that beautiful
poem by Tennyson, Crossing the
Bar" The following resolutions

Nimble Nimrods Go
After Game in County

Nimble nimrods were much in ev-
idence Monday morning, with the
opening of the hunting season. Hunt
ing togs, guns and ammunition wero
the order Of theday.
Many Of the hunters have planned
trips to various mountain counties
in search Of game, while others win
content themselves with the sport in
Montgomery county. While the num-
Der Of quail in this county is said to
be largely increased the hunters win
bend most Of their energies toward
the chase Of the rabbit tribe.
In the past few days the office Of
County Clerk Keller Greene has been
crowded with men OF all ages seeking
hunting licenses.
The State Game Department has
issued rigid instructions pertaining
to the hunting laws in this state,
and every would-be hunter should
become familiar with the provisions
of the law before venturing forth in
search Of game.
Warning has been issued against
carelessness in the use Of firearms,
as many lives are lost all over the
country each year, due to somebody
forgetting themselves or careless
ness. See that your gun is in good
condition. Place it carefully when
not in use. Never point gun toward
any person, even in fun. Never take
any risk, believing the gun is not
loaded.
Take care that the guns are placed
where inquisitive or mischievous
children cannot injure themselves or
others.

Sl5,750 for Turkeys

The first five days in which the

$15,750. This is the beginning Of

35 cents per pound. The heaviest
trade will be held for the Christmas

Jury Fails to Agree;
Jones Case Continued

The jury serving in the trial Of
Verne Jones, charged with the MUIR
der of Woodson Henry in this city,
October rs, took the case at five
o'clock Friday afternoon and. after
celebrating many hours, failed to
agree, eight members being for .ac-
quittal and four for conviction.
Jones was released under $4,000
bond, which was promptly furnished
and the case was continued until the
next term of court.
The courtroom, galleries and
aisles we're crowded at each sitting
of the trial, the sensational testi-
mony introduced. serving to increase
the attendance Of persons interested
in the case and also of others merely
curious.
Jones, on the stand in his own
behalf, declared that he had no
recollection of what happened be-
fore or after the shooting. Alienists
called by the defense said that such
a state of mind was easily possible.
A letter purporting to have been
written by Mrs. Jones to Henry was
introduced as evidence.
Attorneys for the defense were
Hon. G. H. Nesbitt and Hon. G. ID.
Grubbs, while assisting Common
wealth's Attorney Hamilton in the
prosecution were Judge Robert II.
