FACTS ABOUT COTTON.

About G0 per cent of the worlds sup ply of cotton k grown in America.
 Cotton is indigenous to all tropical and sem-tropical countries.
 Sea Islands. grown off the Atlantic coast of the United States are the fin est eottons in the world.
 Boil weevil has about destroyed the Sea Island industry.
 Boil weev!l first appeared in the Uni ted States at Brownsville. Texas in 1892
 A single pound of cotton has been spun into single thread more than 1000 miles in length.
 The prospect is that there will be an unspun supply of American cotton at August i, of 9,607 ,OO0 bales. Before the war the average amount of cotton on hand at that date was about 900 GOO bales.
 The visible Supply" of cotton, and the total supply on any given date are two entirely different things.
 Manufacture of cotton goods is the very foundation of British wealth.
 There is now enough unspun cotton in the world to last about two years
 The average price of middling cotton st 10 leading cotton markets in the South Saturday was 14.03 cents.
 The statistical year for cotton runs from August 1st to July 31st.

Plant Diseases Costly.

Millions of bushels of grain, fruit and vegetables and big tonnage of cotton were lost to American farmers last year by plant diseases, according to figures compiled by the plant dis ease survey of the Department of Ag- riculture. The survey said that the statistics indicate that lack of prompt application of known measures of con- trol was largely the cause of the loss.
 The plant disease survey estimated the losses at 112,0000O0 bushels of wheat, 50,000,00O bushels of oats, sO,- 100000 bushels of corn, 50,00O,0O0 bushels of potatoes, 100000 bashels of sweet potatoes, 1S5,0o0 tons of to- natoes, s50,0O0 bales of cotton, 5,0O0.- 600 bushels of peaches and 16,000,0 900 bushels of apples.

 Town of Aintab.
Americans Are 5usiIy at Work Help ing to Rebuild Once Prosperous
 little City in Eastern Syria.

Clustering red tiled roofs. white stuc- coed walls, the fresh green of grace full poplars and minarets rising here and there in slender beauty-this k the picture greeting the visitor ap- preaching through the mountains rim ming it about the once important town of Aintah. which nesties at the foot of Mount Taurus on the eastern coast of Syria. says the Christian Science Monitor
 Aintab was not only beautiful. but prosperous in those days before the Turk invaded the land, swept 1t bare of Its industry. scattered its people to the four corners of the earth, and de- ported them inland to the desert or outward to the fringe of seacoast
 Today. however, as one approaches more closely to the town, one sees that there are gaps in the rows of white succeed houses, that many Of those picturesque red-tiled roofs are falling in that many of the houses are empty and deedying, and that the town which looked so beautiful from afar k really shell an echo ot that once busy, flourlshing Aintab which with its 43,- ooo inhabitants, formed an important link in the caravan route from Con staHtinople. and was known far an6 wide for it's trade in to0ied leather and Its great cattle market
 When the first narty of Americans from the Near East relief reached Ain tab after the Turkish military had swept on it's devastating course, the wanderers hearing that help was to be had, began 10 come struggling back. They must be fed and housed their homes remade, schools rebuilt for their children and places must be provided for the little ones left homeless. Promptly the work was begun and took on al once u twofold significance 1. not only did it furnish employment for the Workmen, but also shelter for their families The women found em- ployment in weaving, and turned the wool. which Is plentiful in Syria. into fabrics much needed by those who had lost all their possessions. inelud- ing clothing Some of them Woye rugs. and ready market was found for them. often among the American relief workers
