COTTON PROGRESS WAS POOR
During Week-Weevil Moro Active
In South Carolina.

Washington, Aug. 16.-Following
Is the summary Of the weather and
crop conditions fer the week end
ing Aug. 10:
Temperatures were generally low
In the central and eastern cotton
States, but were about normal in the
western part of The belt. There was
much cloudy weather in the eastern
portion, with excessive rains in some
localities, but it continued dry in
most of the western districts
Cotton made generally poor pro-
gress in Oklahoma, and Is shedding
badly in central and western portions
of that State, while developments
ranged from poor to very good in
Texas, depending on the local rain
fall. Progress was mostly fair in Ar
Kansas, but there was too much rain
IN Louisiana. Cotton made generally
poor progress In Mississippi and Ala
bama, where the weather was rather
too cool and considerable complaint
of shedding. Cloudy, damp weather
was unfavorable in Georgia, and gem
eral deterioration was reported, with
serious weevil damage. There was
too much rain IN many localities oe
the Carolinas, although plant growth
was very good iii South Carolina and
the crop is fruiting fairly woll; but
there was a marked increase in tho
weevil damage In central and eastern
North Carolina, but progress was
fair IN the western portion, with the
weeyil increase in the southern part
of the State more marked.

STRATEGY or LEE EMPLOYED
Marshal Fooh Says II General Was
Traitor he Wishes France Had
Moro OF Them.

a I'D r .
It is hardly to be wondered at that
the greatest soldier Of the Twentieth
century should take occasion to pay
his tribure of admiration and affection
to the memory Of one Of the really
great commanders Of modern times,
soldier whose military genius was
equalcd only by the purity Of his pur-
pose and the splendor. Of his charac-
ter, says the Louisville Courier-J our.
nal.
Soldier-like, Marshal Foch employs
few words In answering the anony-
mod6 American Patriot" who had
tclegraphed him at Virginia town
that Robert E. Lee was a traitor.
IF Gen. Robert Il. Lee was trail
tor" said the marshal Of France, "Na-
poleon Bonaparte was coward. II
General Lee was traitor, wish
France had more Of them. He was
one Of the greatest military leaders
the world has ever known"
In winning the World war, Ferdin-
and Foch leaned heavily upon the
shoulder Of Robert p. Lee. It was
'the sword Of Lee" that flashed on
every battlefield in France from the
first battle Of the Marne to Armistice
day.
Lees strategy, revived and employed
first by Joffre and later by Foch, held
the Hun along the French front, swift
to attack again, until at length the
Hlndenburg limo was pierced and the
enemies OF civilization sued for peace.
In his estimate Of Lee, Marshal
FQch takes his stand beside Viscount
Wolseley, Of England, who declared
that Lee was "the greatest soldier
given to the world since the days Of
Marlborough"

GOOD Coal
Coal buyers are tired
of empty coal promises.
They WANT a high quality

coal-but they DON'T want to be
''held up" for il. Newcastle, on the market
for two generations, requires NO promises
to help its sale. Its actual worth is too well
known-its friends are legion. Untried,
unproven products invariably must resort
to general selling claims. Newcastle COM
mands a Tremendously large market
through TWO VERY DEFINITE FACTS:
First, il costs from l2es to 1870 LESS than
any other comparable coal. Second, il
stands second ONLY to Black Diamond
among Washington Goals. Il Is the clean
est burning range and stove coal offered
Pacific Northwest coal buyers. Give nature
credit for the high quality of Newcastle.
