LONDON, July 25. - The Supreme
Allied Council will meet August A,
probably at Boulogne, to reach n final
settlement of the controversy over
Upper Silesia. Colonel George Harvey,
United States Ambassador to the Court
of St. James, will attend the meeting.
This will be the first time that the
American Government has been repre-
scented on the Supreme Council
Although Premier Lloyd George will
meet BRAND at the council table and
Will consent to a meeting before that
date of commission of experts to
prepare data on the Silcsian question
he is standing by his refusal TO sane
ton the dispatch of moro French
troops to the plebiscte zone. How
ever, there are indications that the
british will follow sort of hands off
policy on this last point and if France
should take Independent action along
peaceful lines it would not necessarily
mean a break between the two great
Allies.
Reports published widely in Paris
that Great Britain had accented the
French point of view that more troops
were needed in Silesia to preserve or
der, were declared by officials this
afternoon to be inaccurate. Both the
British and Italian commissioners in
the plebiscite district report that the
populace there is calm and is not like
ly to cause the French any trouble in
the next few weeks.
Germany Stands Upon Treaty
1t is believed here that it was Ger
many's insistence that in accordance
with the letter Of the Treaty of YER
sallles the request for the passage OF
French troops across German soil
should be signed by all three Entente
powers instead of only France that
forced the Paris government to accept
Lloyd Georges request for an early
of the Supreme Allied Council.
1t is known that Germany appealed
to Great Britain on receipt of the
French note, and although Great Brit
ain refused to reply to this advance
the British stand is that the matter
should be settled beween France and
Germany alone. The London govern
ment, therefore, advised France that
she could not obtain backing for fer
demand on Germany. This insistencc
by Great Britain upon the literal full
flment of the treaty may be inter
preted as the result of belief that
the German position was technically
correct

WHAT ARE COTTON
SEED WORTH

,r, Clemson College, January IT,
The following letter by Prof. C. p.
BLACKWELL, chief of the agronomy di-
vision, written in answer to an in
quiry nthe relative value of cotton
seed and commercial fertilizer con-
talns some information that NAV
help to guide farmers in the matter
OF selling cotton seed.
Dear Sir:-Your letter of Jan
uary 3rd. to Mr.. w. w. Long, has
been referred to my office for atten-
ton. In answer will say that in
order to fix accurately ratio be-
tween the value of commercial ferti-
llZer and cotton seed, it would be
necessary to hX prices on ammonia,
phosphoric acid, and potash.
"Since the fertilizer companies
have not announced their spring
prices, it would be little difficult
to make perfectly accurate COM
parison; One ton of cotton seed con-
tainS 81 lbs. Of nitrogen or approx
mate y Is lbs. of ammonia, rs lbs.
of phosphoric acid, and "a lbs. of
potash, while one ton of 8-3-3 would
contain 60 lbs. of ammonia, 100 lbs.
of phosphoric acid, and 60 lbs. of
potash. If we assume that the price
is 25 cents a pound for ammonia, 5
cents for phoSphoric acid, and 10
cents for potash, the cotton seed
would be worth $22.45 figured on
the same basis. l do not know that
we would be justified in assuming
those prices, but | think they would
be fair estimate at the present
time.
II believe that in order for a
farmer to be justified in selling his
cotton seed at present prices, the
1873 fertilizer should sell for less
than $500.
"Of course, there are many factors
affecting the question, one of which
would be the needs of the farmers
soil. In addition to the matter of
fertilizer, | believe there is one other
slider, that is that he is entitled to
price for the oil in his cotton seed
Even if he could sell his seed and
buy 1913 fertilizer, thereby getting
an equal amount of fertilizer, he
would still be giving away the oil
in his seed. While / appreciate the
fact that the oil is not worth much
at the present time, yet do not be-
lieve that the farmer should be ex-
pectcd to make an exchange in which
he gives away his OIL
"As | said in the beginning, a
definite comparison is difficult with
out fixing the price for all of the
fertilizing elements, as the cotton
seed contains more ammonia and the
fertilizer contains more phosphoric
acid and potash"
In this connection, Director Long
OF the Extension Service announces
that conference Of the agricultural
Of FNl1 -, - L.
held in a few days to work out a
farm policy for 1921 with special
reference to making recommended
tons aa to using fertilizers, etc
This conference has been postponed
until fcrtinZcr manufacturers give
out pirccs Of fertilizers fer the year
since the question Of prices would
have considerable influence in maxi
ing recommendations

with Moore offering determined resist
ance.
While there was no decision rendered
in the fight sportwritcrs differed
widely in their opinions as to the win
ner. several giving Moore the decision.
while others considered the match won
by Lynch because of his persistent use
OF a left tab to Moore's face. thus

Lynch's while Moore outfouEht tho
champion in the first. sixth and

Moore was less aggressive. the rounds
closing with neither fighter having
much advantage.
In the fifth round. Lynch began ex-
tending himself.
Moore, in the sixth round, showed
much improvement over his previous
efforts forcing the light from the
gong.
Lynch came back strong in the next
round landing several hard blows TO
the challcnEcr's body, exhibiting his
best work during the infightinE.
Lynch closed the eighth round fight
ing hard after taking several blows 10

fight was landed by Lynch in this
round. Tho twelfth round was freely
fought thruout, Lynch rushing Moore
and apparently making determined
effort to knock the Memphis man out.
