Cost S52.26 an Acre.

From the total cost of --56.16 an acre a seed credit of S390 was deduct ed, making total net cost of S52. 2.26.
 Asserting that the rates for labor and seed did not start to decline until after the 1920 crop had been produced, the report adds:
 With cotton around 12 to E cents pound the returns not only allowed no interest on capital, but failed to pay operating expenses at going rates for labor and prevailing prices for agricul. ture. With cotton at 15 cents a pound it would require yield of approXI- mately of 450 pounds of line to cover operating expenses.
 The application of the basic require ments of production in estimating costs should be of vital interest to growers at this time" the report adds "The history of the year, 1920, will not be forgotten immediately. and it win be safe to say that the lessons of this De riod will bear some fruit.'-Gazette.

JAMES TO MEET
 GOV. TODAY
ROAD OFFICIALS VISIT NOT CAUSED BY ARTICLES IN THE
 NEW YORK TIMES.

Recent articles published in the New York Times concerning the road situa- tion in Arkansas did not occasion the official visit of W F. James. assistant chief engineer of the office of Public Roads. Washington, D. C., but to some extent expedited it MT. James said last night. The articls had the effect, Mir, James said, of leading officials of the Bureau of Roads to believe that road affairs in the state were becoming crit ical.
 That legislation enacted by the re- cent legislature did not improve the road situation in Arkansas was the opinion expressed by Mir. James. "My visit here" he said, twas delayed, after the New York Times Arkansas road publicity. until the time allowed for signing the bills by the governor has elapsed in order to ascertain just how the situation had been affected" he said. "The change find, if any, is for the worse"
 Speaking of the purpose of his visit here, MT. James said: T have come simply to check over the records and method of procedure in the one hun dred or more road projects in the state to learn if federal regula tions, upon which federal aid is contingent, have been complied with. If it is found that they have not, it may become necess- ary to discontinue all federal aid"
 MT. James said that he would be here the remainder of the week, and proba- bly, part of next, conducting the in. vestigation. He has no definite plan by which he will work, he said, but will remain until all the projects have been investigated. He has had no con ference with Governor McRae.

May Halt Transportation.

Much may depend upon the attitude debate in the House of Commons to-
 morrow, and Wednesday will be the 1 critical day. deciding whether the oth- CT sections of the triple alliance. " the railway men and the transport work
 CTS, will strike in support of the miners The railway men strongly favor a strike on the ground that when the | railways are taken out of Government control similar situation may arise and unless they support the miners now they cannot expect the miners sup port should they need it at that time. Moderate opinion is concentra ting in favor of the suggestion offered Sunday by Alfred Bigland, coalition Unionist, that the so-called de-control bill should be reseinded and the time limit for con- trol fixed for May 30, instead of March 31, thereby giving time for discussion l and arrangement of the wage question and the education of the miners to the
 real industrial position at home and abroad.
