FARMERS THEMSELVES THE
WORST COTTON CLEARS

One great trouble with the
farmer is that he doesn't realize
he is entitled to fair wages. He
has accepted slave-labcr prices
for his product so long that when
a time comes when he might get
good prices, he doesn't realize he
has right to them and fight for
higher prices for his iabors.
The world faces the prospect
of a most acute cotton shortage
before another cotton crop can
De marketed and the farmer is
really entitled to thirty cents
pound for all the cotton he has
made this year.
Yet, instead of fighting for
that price, Southern farmers
have themselves been the worst
"bears' that the cotton market
has had. Day after day. reports
from the New York market have
stated that heavy Southern sell
ing and the rush of Southern
spot cotton to market was beat
ing prices down, when the lead
ers in the cotton world (know-
ing that a real cotton famine
threatens Europe and America)
were disposed to boost prices.
Not only this year but for
generation, cotton farmers, by
flooding the market before cot
ton had reached a fair price,
nave themselves been the worst
cotton bears"
One remedy for this situaton
IS cooperative marketing of cot
ton, by which the crop can be
sold from month to month as the
mills need it.
However, until the farmer ap-
plies hard horse sense to his bust
ness, raising everything he posi-
bly, can at home-food for man
and beast, reaping a surplus from
the small products of the farm,
such as can so easily and profit
ably be raised in this section; un-
til this is done, he will be com
PEELED to rush his Gotten and
cotton seed to the market, food
ing the market for month or
two, and thus beating down his
own price
Break that land now. Destroy
the stalks and rubbish. Cotton
can be prcftably raised under
boil weeviI conditions, if right
methods are followed.
Get busy for 1928.

SOME MORE ADVANCED
IDEAS OF PROF. LOW.

# you could come back to earth
1000 years from now, the
chances are that you would find
every one living underground.
There is a new idea for you. 1t
comes from Prof. A. NJ. Lowe,
brilliant young inventor who had
charge of British wireless con-
troll work during the war.
His prediction does not seem
50 bizarre and impossible after
you follow the way he reasons it
out. For instance:
Our remote ancestors, far
back in the mists of time, must
have had the strength and en-
durance Of gorillas. Otherwise
they would have lost cut in the
eternal struggle for existence.
Steadily the human race grows
weaker.
If we were suddenly thrust in
t. the rough sort of life that our
ancestors lived thousands of
years ago, we would die of cold
and exposure, for our physical
powers Of resistance are infinite
+ ly weaker than were theirs.
Says Low: eve human be-
ing5 are growing weaker every
day. Our teeth are growing
worse, our eyes are failing, our
limbs are more delicate. We
need parasols to keep off the
5 sun, umbrellas to keep off the
: rain.
1t is illogical, then, to sup
pose that in time to come we
shall be unable to bear even the
slight hardships to Which we are
new subjected? | think not.
Our eyes viii be too weak to
stand the light of day. And we
shall burrow underground and
Only come to the surface with
special precautions.
It is almost pathetic, to watch
the extremes Of toll to which
men in sedentasy occupations re-
sort to keep their bodies func-
! uoning healthAy. Physical ex

TIE BOY ON THE PAYROLL;
GIVE HIM 4 DECENT CHANCE

Ascund factories, Offices, stores
and any other places where pco-
lie work together, a thing fire.
qucntIy noticed by visitors is the
fard-bo:Ied attitude of grown-ups
toward the boys who are on the
payroll
The boss usually is saIaamej
and todicd to as if he were
sacred cow. Miss Pansy Plush
the beautiful typi5t, gets a lot ot
fawning consideration. And even
the male grown-ups treat cacn
other with a mutual Difference or
respect, despite considerable
amount Of facetious jozhing.
But when it comes to the boy
who works around the place
well, when he's called and com
manded, it generally sounds as
if he were trained dog that had
to be handled roughly on the
theory that, give him an inca,
he'll take a mile.
Rough treatment, lack of coa~
sideration and a stern rebuke are
difficult fol a grown-up to "swai~
low despite the callouses ac-
cumulated by the sensibilities
during the years of toll and con
tact with the hostile pack that
are trying to get the same dollar
We're after ourselves.
The boz, fresh from home and
lust striking out for himself,
haS none OF These callouses. HIS
nature is sensitive, without insul-
ATOM, And rtiking hiny the
target Of the unnecessary sharp
word or lack of consideration is
about the lowest-down act that
the sc-cailed human being is
guilty Of
When it comes to girls,
thousand times more so.
Maybe you recall, years ago,
the heartaches and spiritual in
ju2ies and disappointments that
were yours when you first began
making your own living. Proba-
bly, there were things that occas-
ionally brought a few tears to
your eyes.
If we all kept this memory
fresh before US, the boys who
work today would get a better
deal,
Considering the harsh and
thoughtless treatment that most
boys get on their first jobs, it's
no wonder that so many of them
grow up brutal, cynical and de-
tiant toward their fellows.
You can tell how much of real
manhood there is in a grown-up,
by the way he treats the boys
who work around him. And you
can spot the bully, roughing the
lads in a way he'd not have the
courage to try on men his own
size.
Another thing: These boys
now working with us, and max
ing mistakes due to inexperience
las we all did in our turn), are
the future leaders of the world.
For all some of US know, our only
claim to greatness may be in
having worked with some great
man of the future, now a boy
nervcusly fumbling at his first
job.

realize this years ago when he

installations of mail receptacles at
every house. Postmasters through
out the country have been instructed
to refuse carrier service to any house
that does not install a mail box. The
installation of boxes has long been
urged by the department in order
to expediate the delivery of the mail
as well as for the safety and conven-
fence of the patron. The new rules
are expected to result in the ap-
