United States. but from foreign coun-
tries as well. All these operations hs
described as necessary for the So
luton OF the present world problem.
Financing exports TO Europe through
credits extended by the government
was considered by Governor Harding
TO be wartime expedient.
Subsequent to the armistice." he
explained, export trade amounting to
about s2,5OO, 100000 was financed
through credits extended by the treas.
ury department These credits We're an
important factor in the maintenance
OF our foneign trade during the first
half Of the year 1919, but it was rec.
ognized that methods of financing
adopted under the stress OF war should
not be continued as a permanent peace
policy, for the funds necessary to
make such credits available must be
raisel either by taxation or through
loans"
Gross earnings of all federal reserve
banks combined, the governor reported.
increased from slO2 900 900 in 1919, 10
slSl 100000 in 1920. over SO per cent
OF these earnings came from paper
discounted for member banks, the
available daily holdings of which ag-
$3.50 ,OOO, 900 during 1920 as
with sl,sOS 900 900 in 1919.
Operating expenses of the member
banks continued TO increase during the
year, he explained, chiefly because of
the increased volume Of business
transacted.
Re+1iscount operations between fed
eral reserve banks, including bills
purchased from other federal reserve
banks during the year amounted to
S3,676,72s,0O0 as compared with So
in 1919, and s6sO, ,e3S 900
during the year 1918
Adding 10 these transactions the
bills purchased and allotted TO other

gated s44OS, ,6S6OOO as compared with

DAILY COTTON REPORT


Undeftone or market was easier to
day, with values somewhat lower, due
to longs realizing and disposed tc
await fresh developments rather than
stay in market
Advices from the interior as regards
the spot situation were conflicting, but
on the whole encouraging, particu-
larly from Texas, where a good de-
mand was reported with offerings
light especially Of low grades, which
are reported as becoming scarce
Washington reported prospects for
increasing the sales of American cot
ton in Europe as unpromising, in ad-
ditional consular reports transmitted
to the senate today by President
Wilson in response TO a resolution Of
inquiry.
Foreign exchange, labor and other
conditions We're declared unfavorable
to purchase from the United States,
during the present year
This report, however, covered the
smaller countries Of Europe, mean
while there has been an important
advance in foreign exchange.
Nevertheless in view OF prospects
for record surplus to be carried
over at close Of this season, the re-
ported unfayorabe industrial situation
abroad should make a deep impression
on the southern producer when pre-.
pairing for the next crop.
Unless there be "A material improve
ment in foreign trade conditions, there
will be no need for anything other
than a small crop for next season
because Of the expected heavy carry
over at close Of this season.
Evidently farmers are aware Of this
fact, as advice from the interior are
to the effect that indications are
that very small acreage win be
planted this spring.
Interpretation Of the contemplated
drastic reduction in acreage, the inte-
rior is holding fast to the unsold por.
ton of last years production, being
confident Of obtaining a higher price

AS We Feast Today.

Our mothers or grandmothers had
more excuse than we when they
spread before their dinner guests
food that positively groaned upon the
table, and never felt that they had
shown honor to their guests until
they had urged them to partake of
far more than they really needed. To
offer inexpensive. simply cooked
dishes was not complimentary. The
bill Of fare for a dinner must indi-
cate that the hostess had spent law
ishly and had spared neither her own
preparing the meal.
Now we know more OF dietetics. We
knoW-or ought to know-too much
Of the role that food plays in our
feelings and efficiency. We know
that 1t is unkind and in bad taste to
offer a dinner that would tax the di-
gestion of our guests or one that
would tempt them to break away from
a sane dietary.
That is the real test Of your dinner

appetite and pleasant to the taste
and at the same time of a nature and
combination perfectly harmless.
