Estimates.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 2S.-GP)--
The New Orleans Cotton Exchange
has used all means available to work
for the abolition of semi-monthly crop
reporting and estimating on cotton by
the government. Frank Il. Payne, pres
ident Of the exchange, said here to-
day. commenting on n statement cred
tied TO Senator Caraway, Democrat,
Arkansas. that cotton reports this year
have cost growers not less than
$3.50. 100000.
Mr.. Payne's statement follows:
Senator Caraway, through the AS
ISOLATED Press. has charged that TO
everyone it must he apparent. that in
tentionally or otherwise, the cotton
reports Of this year cost the cotton
growers of American not less than
$780, 100000.
REPORTS INJURIOUS.
Il think probably Senator Caraway
is correct in this statement, but con-
Sidcring the fact that the New Or
leans Cotton Exchange has used every
effort in it, power to have these semi
monthly reports abolished and has al
ways contcnded that they were injuri-
Gus. not only TO the whole cotton trade.
but especially to the producer, it seems
to me, it is unjust on his part to
attack the New Orleans Cotton Ex-
change.
Cotton futures trading is a legiti-
mate and necessary function of mod
crn business. and l state beyond ques-
ton Of doubt if there were no future
markets. the governments crop guess
yesterday would have caused very
much greater decline in the value OF
the remainder Of the unsold crop.
REVOKE LAWS.
Several states passed laws calcu-
lated to curb or abolish future trad
Ing. but they have acknowledged their
error and revoked same. Texas has
only recently replaced its narrow and
prohibiJory law by one that meets
modern necessities.

Things You Should Know
Controlling Your Weight

There are at least three ways to
acquire flesh: to eat too much, to
eliminate too little, and to ride ev-
erywhere instead of walking. Re-
verse procedures if you would lose
flesh. Eat less and exercise more,
if your adipose threatens.
Fat people usually drink too
much fluid at meals. Fluids ALL
aid absorption. There are millions
of absorbing glands in the intest-
inc, and they are constantly at
work, unless we may imagine the
Lymph channels so full that obey
will hold no more. Fat people ab.
sorb too much-more than they can
dispose of properly. Since dry
food absorbs more slowly and spar
ingly, your stout lady should
drink no fluid at mealtinle nor soon
after. Note that ! say FIJI IDS.
All dilutents must be excluded, tea,
milk, coffee, and other prepared
beverages are as harmful at meals
as water.
Excess of sugars and starches
should be avoided as well, also
white bread. The six o'clock din
nar is the foe of long life. Avoid
it. Indolent habits dispose one to
iatness. OVERFLESH is sluggish,
inactive, weakened tissues. Fat
