500 FOR 10 COTTON SEEDS.
One Stalk Produces $50 Bolls as
Large as Mans Fist.

A cotton stalk containing $50
bolls, and ten of whose seed sold for
$40 each, is located near Lamarque,
Tex, and is owned by p. Dan George,
Rumanian.
The stalk was produced by graft
ing an extra fine cotton stalk on to
a. mulberry root. 1t might be thought
that the stalk would have to be the
size of a mulberry tree in order to
contain $50 bolls, but in fact IL is
only a little over four feet in height,
not nearly so tall as some cotton
stalks get in sections of lowland
Several days ago. r. F. Irby con-
nected with one of the largest cot
ton exporting firms of Galveston, paid
visit to Mr. George, and before he
left he made out a check for S10O
to pay for ten little seeds of cotton.
The bolls are as large as d man s
ciinched fist, and about forty of them
would easily make a pound This
means about three and one-half
pounds on one stalk. As it only
takes about 1,400 pounds for bale,
1t would only take a little over 100
stalks to make a bale of cotton.
Planting the stalks three feet apart
In the row and running the rows
three feet apart, seventy stalks could
be planted in seventy-yard row, and
Ii only takes about six such rows to
make a bale. This would mean over
eleven bales to the acre, as there
are about seventy rows to the acre.

THE LEGISLATURE

The Legislature elected last week
will have about the same Republican
majority as last year. The dry ele-
ment will be stronger Notwithstanding
a wet Republican Senator with four
wet Republican Assemblymen were
elected in Essex County.
1t is expected that the Drys will
elect the President of the Senate and
the Speaker of the House, altho U. S.
Senator Edges man, Friday Corio, of
Atlantic, is in line for the speakership.
He was the Republican leader last
year but made such a fizzle as to be
a disgrace to that law making body.
Yet, he was reelected by a big ma
jority.
Herbert J. Pascoe has the prefer
ence for Speaker of the House of the
Assembly over Joseph A. COrio, OF
Atlantic City. For Corio to become
speaker would make as big immoral
stencil in the State as when Tom
Flynn presided over the gambling
race track legislature in 1898.
The election about settled the ques-
ton of ~lessening the restrictions on
the sale of liquors.

tor Walter E. Edges peterborough
the organizations of both old parties
was so morally rotten that a Clean
Government League was organized
and candidates nominated at the last
election. They polled rs per cent OF
the vote.
A meeting of 300 supporters was
held Tuesday evening. 1t was decided
to continue the organization and have
a weekly newspaper to expose the
political rottenness, because the other
newspapers in that county are devoid
of moral principles and civic righte-
BUSINESS in public affairs.
One man pledged $1,000 to start a

elected Senator from Monmouth
County, and was Republican leader
last year, will probably be elected

its debt by $4,000 and some special
services are being planned by Pastor
George S. Harris in recognition of this
important matter. Second Church,
Millvile, is in the midst of extensive
improvements, costing about $4,000.
The New Jersey Conference has
already subscribed $4,000 for the
Home for the Aged at Ocean Grove.
The goal for this Conference is 800,
900, and on Sunday, November rs, it
is hoped to raise the balance. All the
campaign expenses have been provid-
ed by Mr.. and Mrs. William Halls, Jr.,
so that all the money contributed by
the churches goes to the home. The
real estate and furnishings are worth
$4,000, free of all indebtness. A
long list of applicants wait for admis-
sion.

in the first practical limitation of ar

earth, did much to promote peace and
good will. In our own country, rigid

within our income, and brought about
a reduction of war debts.
"Our country will remember with
gratitude on that day those who
served it with such distinction, and
renew its obligations to those who
suffered injury from their service.
But for their action so periodically
performed, Armistice Day would have
had quite another meaning for us and
for the world. 1t will not fail, either,
to pay the reverence due to the mem
ory of those who did not see the end,
but died that the end might come.
at is well, also to recall just what
this day meant. 1t meant the end of
a war. 1t ought to mean the per-
manent return of a peace which can
only be established through good will,
and only enjoyed in security when it
rests on justice.
of there is to be peace on earth,
it will, because between nations
there is justice on EARTH"

President COOlidge's Message

Last Saturday, President Calvin
Coolidge gave out a message for ar
mistice day as follows:
November 18th will be the fifth
anniversary of the signing of the ar
mistice which ended the World War.
The nations have not yet recovered
from the great catastrophe, nor will
they recover for some time to come.
But a great deal of progress has been
made in that direction. Most of the
millions of soldiers have been returned
into their civilian occupations, and
commerce and industry are tending
toward their pre-war conditions. The
lapse of time has mellowed the re-
sentiments arose out of the war, and
has healed many of the wounds that
such a struggle was bound to make.
at is greatly to be hoped that we
are on the threshold of a new era.
