English Spinners Want Standard
For Length Of Staple, Says
Palmer

ATLANTA, Oct, 25.-Georgia
agricultural officials and farmers
are interested in the announcement
of Arthur w. Palmer, cotton spe-
cilist of the United States depart
ment of agriculture, that many Of
the leading spinners Of England
stressing that they term the need
of the adoption of universal cotton
standards for length Of staple. The
adoption of American standards
for grades is meeting with gene,-
al satisfaction, he stated.
Renewed efforts are being made
by the British trade to encourage
the growing of cotton in other
parts of the world, Mr. Palmer
said. Cotton is being bought from
Brazil, Argentina and Australia, he
continued, but the production of
these three countries win not be
sufficiently large to constitute an
important factor in world cotton
trades for at least ten years.
The failure of the south to pro-
duce a large crop this season and
the resulting high prices, he as
serted, have been discouraging to
the Lancashire mills.

merchant; DR.. Branharn. in charge
of health work in the county, were
guests of the club Wednesday,
A committee composed of Rota-
rians recently visited the public
schools of the city. In its repor.
to the club, the committee stated
that the negro school and the high
school were badly crowded, addi'
tional room and teachers being nee
essary. The committee also adj
vised that at Brooklyn Heights
there were only II pupils and sug-
gested that the school authorities
place more pupils there or make
other arrangements, as the ex-
pense seemed too great to care for
only this number of pupils.
Herbert Kincey spoke for the
committee, and Prof. J. f, Mathis
requested every member of the club
to visit the schools during the
month.
DR.. Branham, in a short address
to the club, stated that the cost to
the people of the county in ~
months for doctors bills alone had
exceeded SIS, 900 He said hat a
fund of $l00 would make it posi-
BILE to supply every child in Sum
;er county with quinine at cost of
only one cent day. Take one
cents worth of quinine every day
and you men as we'll as the children
will not be affected with malaria"
He said that the health authoFi-
ties would request $500 from the
county commissioners, 500 for
quinine, $500 for a survey for the
lowlands-mosquito breeding places
in the county. This survey by a
competent civil engineer is of first
and vital Importance, he said
Dr.. Branham said that with the
survey and funds TO eliminate the
breeding places. that mosquitoes
would be unknown in the county in
two years. This would mean a.
additional income of $4,000 year
to the merchants Of Americas he
said.
