quently having just such illustrations
Of the value of cooperative market
ing as is found in the story coming
from S. II. Byars, county agent of
Anderson county, concerning some cot
ton belonging to all Anderson farmer"
Recently the county agent secured
samples of some long staple cotton
grown by DR.. ]. H. McKlesky on his
farm in Anderson county, and for
which he had been offered % cents
per pound on the local market. The
samples were sent to the Mississippi
Cooperative Association, which is now
selling thousands of bales of cotton
for the farmers of that state, and
Mr.. Byars has recently received a
telegram saying that the association
could sell the cotton for 80 to 40 cents
per pound. This difference of 8 to
1S cents per pound between the price
offered on the local market and the
price which the Mississippi Associa-
tion would secure is some difference
indeed, and. illustrates the fact that
if it is worth while to secure prices
as much as fifty percent above the
prevailing prices then it is worth
while to join the cooperative market
ing movement.
1t is reported that one mill in An
derson county is now buying long
staple cotton from the Mississippi
Cooperative Association although the
same cotton is produced in this state.
The reason is plain. The mill is will
ing to pay Tor what it wants and the
haphazard method Of the unorganized
farmer does not provide the mill with
what it wants. AS a result the mill
will buy from the association in an
other state because it can get a GER
tain grade Of cotton in q quantity
which it desires.

AGAIN IN NATIVE LAND.
First Woman to Sit in English Parlia-
ment, Is Visiting Homeland.

Nancy Langhorne Astor, the Vir-
ginia girl who married British
nobleman, won the first seat in the
House of Commons ever held by a
woman. came back to America last
week for snort visit.
The beauty for which Lady Astor
was famed in her debutante days in
Virginia is still a part of her charm.
She speaks with the accent of the
South, though it has been eight years
since she he's been home.
Lord Astor accompanied his Amer
lean wife from England, and went
with her to Baltimore where she took
&, prominent part in the international
conference of the League of Women
Voters.
In honor of Lady Astor, who de-
scribed herself as sort of connecting
link between the English speaking
Peoples, many men and women, scores
of them leaders in sundry fields of
labor, attended dinner in New York
under the auspices Of the English
speaking Urdor.
Presiding was John W. Davis, for
mer American ambassador to the
court OF St. James. He showered
Lady Astor with compliments, as did
the other speakers.
"It is all very we'll to hear people
talk of European entanglements, but
the world is already tangled, and we
have to think OF plan to disentangle
ourselves. No one could think that
English fathers and mothers-with
nearly eight hundred thousand sons
who will never return-would want
to join league which would entan-
gle them or anyone else in war. The
English know enough about wars
rever to want to fight or to see any
one else have to fight.
these mothers and fathers think,
as 1 feel sure the fathers and moth
CTS of America do, that the safest
way to get out of wars is to join some
sort of association of nations for
peace. The Washington conference
showed US what can happen when
great countries with great ideals get
together.
"That misrepresented and much
despised League of Nations has al
ready prevented three small wars. 1t
has registered over one hundred trea-
ties. 1t has repatriated nearly 400,-
600 prisoners-not bad record for
only half q league"
Lady Astor said she thought it a
strange thing tat she, England's
first woman member of Parliament,
should have come from England's
first colony-Virginia.
at is very picturesque when one
thinks of it historically, but it seems
very ordinary when it is done," she
said.
Then Lady Astcr, herself the moth
er of six children, offered an apology
to future little school girls for hav-
ing added another question of the
lengthening list about historical per-
sonages, varying, as she said, from
Lucretia Borgia down to Susan B.
Anthony.
Il have been asked what my visit
here was for" she remarked. "Can-
Dot a person come home without be.
ing suspected of deep and ulterior
motives? I may tell you at once l
am not mission to promote bet
ter understanding between England
and America"

been at work on a conference of nations forsthe puT-s
pose of considering the genefal economic situation.
This much has been made: known il q letter from
the president to Senator Lodge, though the exact
nature of the correspondence has not been disclosed,
nor the views of the president on what phases of
he hopes to have discussed. His letter
calls attention to the obvious fact that not all of the
details Of such preliminary work can properly be
made public while the issues are pending, but con-.
gressmen are informed that information on the sub
ject will be supplied to them if they seek it in the
proper way.
During the past few days more or less detailed
has been obtained concerning the
storms which ragged on the north Atlantic for a week
or more before Christmas. Men who have spent
the better partIof a lifetime on the ocean say that
the storms which they experienced during that
week were the. worst they ever knew. One of the
big liners brought information of winds that reach
led a velocity of 100 miles an hour, and Of being able,
with her great engines, to make only two knots in
.4S hours. The great storm seems to have spanned
the Atlantic, as similar weather was experienced
on both sides at the same time. New York has had
sleet and snow which almost suspended traffic, and
all New England is covered with a blanket of deep
snow.
Because of the startling character Of the facts
thus far made public the proceedings in the %investi-.
CATION of the kidnapping and double murder at Mer
Rouge, La, are being followed with great interest
all over the country. A former mayor of Mer
Rouge, now in Baltimore, has been arrested on a
murder charge in connection with the crime, and
is resisting extradition. and local authorities are
said to have a list of twenty or more men who are
to be arrested on a similar charge. In view Of the
tension which has developed state troops are kept
ion the job.

HOW WILL WE HAVE IT?

There is something refreshing in the explicit
ness of the suggestions made by the London Spec
tator as to steps which should be taken looking
toward the settlement of some of the most perplex-
ing problems which trouble the world. He proposes
in brief, that Great Britain's debt to America be
funded; that America assist in ascertaining the
amount which Germany can and should pay in repair
atoms, and induce France to accept her diminished
share on assurance that America will cooperate
with Britain in defending France against any ag-
gression by Germany and that America and Britain
together inaugurate some system of legal tender
which will permit the resumption of international.
exchange on a sound basis.
1t is the Spectators idea that the chancellor of
the exchecquer who is now on his way to the United
States, make no proposal with reference to the Brit
ish debt except that it be paid, leaving it to the
creditor to designate the time and manner, and that.
in the matter Of aiding France as against a Ger
man attack, instead of a formal alliance there should
be an understanding in which full recognition is
given to American constitutional methods and
sentiment. ~
1t is an~undoubted fact that in addition to a
certain measure of militarism, which may be found
in other countries than France, fear lies behind
much of the French attitude toward Germany.
France has suffered, and suffered terribly from Ger
man aggression. Her people do not desire a repcti-
ton of that experience, and are determined to pre-
vent it if possible. The rest of the world looks
hopefully for the rehabilitation of Germany. France
fears that very thing, for she cannot tell at what
moment Germany, industrially and commercially
strengthened, may again become a military menace.
France wants to keep the German nose on the grind
stone, and it is easy to understand why.
Convince the French people that they need not
fear German attack, and the question Of reparations
becomes merely one of dollars, and questions of
dollars can always be adjusted. Great Britain stands
ready to cancel all, or the major part of the French
Indebtedness to her, if France will abate by a similar
amount her reparations claims on Germany. With
assurance that the German military menace has
been absolutely wiped out there is no reason why
France should not avail herself of that offer.
The French military establishment stands in
the way of a general reduction of land arndaments.
That establishment is maintained largely because
of fear of Germany. Remove the cause Of that fear,
and the cause of the great French army is re-
moved.
The United States has many of these matters,
if not in her own hands, at least largely within her
own control. She is the keystone of the arch of
world relationships. 1t is impossible for her to play
the part of the disinterested observer. She is not
disinterested, and she ought mot to be a mere OBJ
server. Her highest interest lies in the readjust-
ment of international relations, the establishment
of international credit, and in bringing about the
assurance of international peace.
