Pima Cotton Is
Best In Tests
By Government

We have Just received a report on
a test made at the government ex-
pertinent station at Sacatpn with
four varieties Of cotton. We are al
much interested just now to know
just what variety of cotton will
really prove to be the best money
maker for our section. No one should
be prejudiced to the extent OF letting
himself be influenced except by facts
and should make an honest effort to
know the truth If possible. No one
wants to grow a certain variety II
there is another that Is better, but
until II has been proved to be better
in all respects it is not the part OF
wisdom to act too quickly, We all
want to grow the crops that VIII
make the most money, but let us be
sure what we are doing. We will
possibly find that the large yields
and other advantages we have read
about regarding the shorter varieties
will not pan out in most cases. There
will doubtless be enough of the short
er cotton tried out this year to give
it a good test and a year from now
we will know the truth Of the reports
of its superiority in yield and de-
mand and also by that time will have
better knowledge Of the possibili-

going ahead.

evils of skyscrapers construction to
be found in New York City.

FIRELOSSES HUGE,
REPORT DECLARES
Examination for Five Years
Shows a $l,672,722,677
Destruction.

An examinat ton Of the fire losses
for the FIVE years ended with 1870
reveals a number of facts that are
nothing less than shocking. The
total Of 3l.s72.722.s77 represents the
recorded losses, plus Is per cent as
a conservative allowance to cover
the destruction caused by unreported
fires and those in uninsured prop
critics.
The total given is terrific enough,
in itself, but when it is compared
with certain other fpancial items, the
picture staggers belief. The sum
exceeds. for example. the value of
the entire gold production Of the
United States during the ninteen
years from 1902 to 1920. inclusive. 1t
equals, in value. 1927 grams Of
radium. the costliest Of earth's pro-
ducts.

1t has been shown what this amount

They benefit no honest man and con-
stitute a burden that is borne by all,
since insurance protection is neces-
sarily included in the cost Of all COM
modities and must be based upon the
volume of fire destruction.
Nothing could demonstrate more
forcibly the need for nation wide fire
prevention than the loss figures that
have been cited. Even wealthy United
States cannot continue to destroy its
material resources at such a rate
without eventually paying the
penalty.

SHORTAGE TOLAST
FIVE YEARS, CLAIM
So-called Emergency Housing
Legislation Is Dangerous,
Says Ihldel.

The housing shortage in this
country will not be overcome with
in the next five years. in the opin-
ion of John Ihldel, manager of the
Civic Department of the Chamber
OF Commerce. expressed at the re-
cent housing conference Of the
American Society of Civil Engineers
in Chicago.
Mr.. Ihldel said that even the we'll
to do, generally speaking, would
not be as adequately provided with
good housing in 1927 as they were
in 1914.
He pronounced as DANGEROUS
some of the so-called emergency
housing Legislation. He pointed out
that during the last two years there
had been legislation not based upon
any deep study and designed mere
ly to check temporarily certain
abuses from which a local part OF
the community is suffering. Legis-
lation designed not to cure but sim
ply to reduce irritation. he said. Is
likely to have effects quite I'M
looked for.

LOCAL BUILDERS
HEAR GLASS CUT
American Window Glass Com,
pany Announces Big
Reductions.

Washington home builders will
be able to buy window glass cheap
err as a. result of a price war be-
tween importers and American
glass manufacturers. Foreign win
dow glass has been coming into this
market virtually free since the end
OF the war. At first the competi-
ton was not greatly felt because
of limited production capacity Of
European plants and the demand
here for a high quality of glass.
But because of the huge volume of
small-house construction last year
and the narrow margins that build
ing investors have been forced to
operate on, some of the better grade
of speculatively-built homes have
been forced to buy the foreign
product. and the reaction on Amer
lean producers has become so great
that it has been decided to meet
the lower price and at the same
time give the consumer the quality
he sought to put into his building.
General price cuts were announc-
ed recently by the American Win
dow Glass Company, manufacturing
probably one-third of the country's
output Of window glass. The reduc-
tion aggregated 90 per cent and
doubtless will be operative until a
protective tariff schedule can be
worked out u give adequate pro-
lection to American glass indus
tries, according to a local real es-
tate man.
The price reduction on very small
sizes of single strength window
glass. averaging twenty-five united
Inches. on which competition was
keenest. was approximately 81 per
cent. On sizes a little larger, on
which competition was not quite so
keen. the reduction worked out to
about 2314 per cent. and on the
larger sizes. in which competition
has not been so great, the cut was
made at 20 per cent.
These price reductions resulted in
an immediate change in discounts
on jobbers' lists here with the new
discounts on single strength. A
quality window glass became 81
per cent to 81 per cent, depending
on sizes, and on single strength B
quality. IS per cent to So per cent.
The new discount of jobbers' lists
on double strength is IS per cent
and on B quality 81 per cent. The
reduction does not affect plate
glass.
