TIE COTTON ASSOCIATION.


 I5 Is gratifying to note that Pin B.uff and Jefferson county planters have allied themselves with the Ar kansas branch of the American Cot ton association.
 This is an organization of South ern farmers, financiers and business men, who seek to put the cotton in dustry of the south on a higher plane. While organization has put the, wheat growers on good busi ness basis and Fhas made" the wheat states, lack of organization has made the annual cotton crop mat ter of guesswork for everyone who has an interest in cotton from the time it is planted until it is ginned. 1 Cotton has been an open field for gamblers and the low prices that have been paid to the producer have ! kept the states where cotton is grown in the rut. The race prob lem is woven up in it as is the fu ture progress and prosperity of the south. 5s
 i The men behind the American Cot i ton association are men who have the foresight and the ability to bring order out of chaos. They can put the cotton industry on the plane where it belongs. To do it they must have unified support, and it now seems that this support is forth coming, as the many branches or ganized throughout the south indi- cate.

MR.. FOX ASKS FOR REPLY.

William Fox, who has offered half a
million dollars for bout between Georges
Carpenter and Jack Dempsey wired Jack
Kearns. manager OF the heavyweight
champion, yesterday. requesting definite
reply to his offer. Mr.. Fox. in his tele-
gram to Los Angeles, said that inasmuch
as the affair had now assumed the aspect
OF a business transaction. he desired to
have full details as to how Kearns and
Dempsey stood in the matter in order to
stop conflicting and unauthorized state
ments.
In the reply to the telegram which Mr.
Fox sent to Dempsey's manager early In
the week, Kearns answered that the prop
ostion was attractive, but added that he
was expecting a visit from Charles 3.
Cochran. the English promoter within
'forty-eight hours" The fact that the
"forty-eight hours" have expired caused
Mr.. Fox to call for definite reply to his
offer of 100000 to Dempsey.

MOTOR SHOWS
CLOSE TONIGHT
Passenger Car Exhibit Has Been Great
Success-Truck and Transportation
Exhibit Largest Ever Held in Bronx.

with the automobile show at Grand
Central Palace and the motor truck dis
play at the Eighth Coast Artillery Ar
mory closing tonight, exhibitors in bott
the vehicle and accessory sections are en-.
thusiastic over the general interest taken
in the event. Yesterday was no excep.
ton to the rule during the week of rec.
ord breaking crowds. Throughout the day
and evening the show buildings were
crowded. To those not initiated to the
spectacle 1t has been surprising to see
long lines of men and women before the
ticket windows waiting their turn to pay
pay FOR adnittance to a display of mes
chanical devices. 1t is doubtful il any
other industrial display has been so pat
ronized by the general public.
Attendance at the truck show in the
gigantic armory was beyond the expec-
tations of the exhibitors.
At the Palace the crowds yesterday con-
tinued to hold a large percentage of per-
sons who were not merely curiosity seek
ers. Throughout the week the factory
and local dealer statesmen at the various
car spaces reported the placing OF many
orders by visitors 1t was stated that
many people who earlier in the week had
made a casual inspection of the cars on
view returned yesterday with a definite
selection in mind. This was demonstrated
by the marked increase in the number of
sales booked.
Those dealers who deferred their visit
to the show until yesterday were destined
to disappointment in their search for new
agencies. With the production for several
months to come already sold by quite n
number of the manufacturing companies
and the dealers themselves far behind on
deliveries, there was not much encourage
ment for the closing of new dealer con-
tracts. The majority of the agencies that
were open were filled earlier in the week.
In the accessory division the production
situation was not so serious and several
concerns reported yesterday that they
had closed important selling rights for
their devices.
The show will close tonight at half-past
ten o'clock. and practically all Of the ex-
hibits will be shipped to Chicago, where
tho automobile show will be held during

HOME RUN RECORD
FOR YANKEE CLUB.
New York Team Had Best League
Mark in Many Years, with
Total of As.

! 1t has escaped the notice Of the baseball
statisticans that the Yankees established
a modern home run record last season
figures for the last ten years In the Amer
lean League do not credit any club with as
many four base smashes as the New York
team gathered in 1919. Frank Baker led,
with 10: Peckinpaugh, Pipp and Lewis
each had z: Bodie. 6; Pratt. 4; Wick, 2. and
Hannah and Fewster. each. The lowly
Athletics were second in the matter of
home runs. with So, and the hard hitting
iTigers, with five outfelders in the 800
Babe Ruth gave the Red Sox a wonderful
start toward a team record with his 30
home runs, but the rest of the club earned
Ionly three.
If the Yankees can maintain the same
home run gait next season and if Babe
Ruth can equal his mark Of 29 the. club
will be registering a home run every
other day-an unprecedented average
Fans who delight in the four base hit
above all else will probably make men
tai note of that possibility.
Ban Johnson and John Heydler, follow
ing the meeting of the National Commits
sion in Cincinnati on Thursday, left for
french Lick, Ind, to draw up a tentative
schedule of games for the two major
leagues. The dates will be submitted to
the club owners at the joint meeting OF
the leagues on February II. Incidentally,
Johnson and Heydler will devote some Of
their time in Indiana to the discussion Of
successor to Garry Hermann. Under the
rule which gives the two league presidents
sole power to choose a chairman, it is
quite possible, although hardly probable.
that johnson and Heydler will fail to
elect candidate for an indefinitely long
period. Should either hold out for a man
to whom the other is seriously opposed
deadlock would result that would probably
end in the selection of compromise cam
didate. 1t is scarcely probable, however.
that the chairmanship will be left open
for any great length Of time. for little or
nothing can be accomplished in the way
of legislation without one. In the event OF
n deadlock pressure would be brought to
bear by the club owners toward speedy
adjustment Of the situation.
John Miljus has been added to the
Brooklyn Clubs roster for the second time.
according to an announcement made yes
terday. He was with the Dodgers during
the season of 1917 and remained until
called into the army. He returned from
France last spring and rejoined the club.
but after pitching in a few games was
released to the Toledo Club. of the Amer
lean Association. His showing with Toledo
was so impressive that Wibcrt Robinson
decided to call him back into the fold.

Every one, OF course. can't go through
the whole system of training which
would like 10 suggest, but you can pick out
some of the features which will coincide
with your methods of living.
IL you want to train seriously so that
you will get fit for anything, one of the
best things TO do is when you get up In tho
morning put on some old togs and bundle
yourself up pretty well, even if the
weather is hot. DO this particularly II
you have any superfluous flesh. Ever
II you are lean Il will not hurt you. for you
will get UP a healthy perspiration. which
Is one Of natures methods OF getting rid
Of the impurities of the body. Joggins
along the road is not the most interesting
thing in the world. but the fundamentals
Of anything which leads to success are
usually unattractivc. You get the sweet
things later on.
! have never enjoyed anything better
than n nice run before breakfast. l al
ways take a Jog on an empty stomach
In the country I like Il particularly. but
YOU can always find some sort OF country
near by There are plenty or parks in the
city in which you may live. and the closer
you get TO the trees, where you VIII get
plenty OF oxygen into your lungs. the bet
ter. good thing to have with you is a
stick that you can swing along. and II
you have the chance. n smart dog that viii
run with you will add lot TO the pleasure.
Begin by walking at a moderate pace
and gradually increase it. and soon YOU
Will feel like running. Run until you get
tired or winded. then walk along. Sprinkle
this with some short sprints. and II you
have your dog along with you. you VIII
have lot Of fun trying to beat him. There
are lots Of other exercise that you may in
dulge in to increase your lung capacity
but this is the one that Dame Nature
started and II is the best OF all.
Any one who wants to can find time to
get outdoors. and there is nothing like a
jog along the road or a long walk through
the woods where you are constantly see
ing something new and interesting, and at
the same time unconsciously storing ur
energy that will add years TO your Lfe,
The New York herald., 1920-01-10

Just as there are more ways than one OF
killing n cat. as the saying Ia, there arc
more ways than one OF improving ones
lung power. And as / said in a previous
article lung power is one OF the most es-
sential things to become n champion
athlete or a real healthy and vigorous
man or woman. In fact. | might state
that tho development OF the lungs Is Just
as important in n young girl az II is in a
boy. No one likes to see flat-chested
woman. In the cloak and suit business,
with which am pretty familiar through
my family, who have been active In ".
they never want girl for a model who
has not well developd chest. How does
she get it? Nature may have built her
that way and hercdity may have had lot
to do with e. but in the main it was the
developing OF her lungs. You will never
see a flabby chested singer Why. do you
notice that all the great women singers
have wonderfully developed chests, and
the men too?
The reason for II Is that one OF the
cardinal points in their training is to
breathe correctly. As I said. there are
many ways OF developing the lungs, and
liz you will pay attention to this you will
not be very likely TO suffer much from
colds, bronchitis, pneumonia or tubercu-
loss. The weak lungs are the Fairgrounds
OF germs. You never see flies buzzing
around a nice clean place IN swarms, but
YOU will find millions OF them around any
thing that is decayed. IL Is just the same
with the lungs that are not properly
cared for. The germs Just love to settle
down there and make il home sweet home.
