BUSINESS IMPROVES,
NEWS NOTES SHOW
BY EvERIT B. TERHUNE.

Is there no consoling business news?
Yes, a great deal Of it. Here's an item:
The volume Of fire insurance premiums
is increasing.
Why is that particularly encouraging?
Because it forecasts the increasing of
stocks of goods. 1t means that some
where there are business men with
confidence, and as soon as their
confidence ia impaired to suficient
number Of others we shall all forge
ahead.
You spoke OF better planning in in
dustry recently. Better in what re-
spect?
Economists often use the terms short
run and long run. Business has been
doing too much short run planning
Is long run planning feasible?
1t Is the price of salvation Our
biggest and best managed concerns
now practice it by seeking for all the
facts in connection with their bust
ness. They are able to replace ex-
pedient with carefully thought -out
policies based upon their fact finding
Is the farmers case hopeless?
BY no means; it's a generally &C.
cepted fact that 1881 crops will be
produced at a lower unit cost because
of the better yields which are generally
anticipated.
What beneficial effects will this have?
1t will mean employment to an in
creased number of people and it will
mean lower food cost for people in the
cities.

NEW YORK, July 6.-The following
is today's summary Of important cor

Associated Press:
Weekly News Review.
Security markets for the week seemed
to be disregarding all developments,
with the exception Of those pertaining
to the negotiations of our Government
with France in an endeavor to effect
a debt moratorium plan acceptable to
both countries. The day-to-day devel-
opments were reflected in the vacillat-
ing performance of the stock market,
and on Friday when advices from
abroad stated that the most important
differences had been settled, the mar
ket advanced more sharply than at any
time since Secretary Mellon started his
discussions with France. The actual
movement of the market during the
week. as indicated by Standard Statis-
tics price index for 90 stocks, was small
From 1919 on June 26 the decline was
7 points to 1917 on July 3, industrialS
and railroads participating in the de-
cline and utilities remaining stationary.
Aside from the progress in the pro-
posed debt holiday. there have been
very few constructive developments In
the industrial field.

downward path, ingot production

rels from the previous week to 2,441 $50
barrels, compared with 2,619,950 bar

Although electricity production for
the week ended June 81 declined 3.9
per cent from the like 1880 week, this
was better showing than the previous
week, when production was as per cent
below year ago.

price of copper was again advanced 4
per cent to 9 cents a pound. The mar
ket turned dull for the remainder Of

Carillon's Origin.

This country has recently acquired
or is acquiring several carillons fol-
lowing revival of interest in chimes
which occurred in Europe several years
ago and England, Belgium and Ger
many have extensive establishments
and schools devoted to the bell-ringers'
art. The carlton is thought to have
originated In some of the early Ger
man monasteries. In the fifteenth
century the ringing of church chimes
became very general in North Ger
many, Holland, Belgium and other
European countries. Belgium and the
Netherlands in particular were famous
for their bell ringing. Belgium won
and maintained its prestige as a pre-
mier maker and ringer Of chimes for
more than three centuries
Bell ringing has been more popular
in fiat countries than elsewhere. The
reason for this is that in such places
the sound of the chimes can carry
much farther. it having been noted
that some chimes have been heard as
far as ten miles away under the best
circumstances. England has taken to
chimes more recently than the other
European nations, but throughout the
British Kingdom the practice, once
adopted, took fast root

Mystery of Nal de Mer.

No malady has been given so much
attention as seasickness and 1t is yet
unconquered. In fact, it Is quite as
much of mystery as ever. For CEN
turtles one remedy after another has
been suggested and tried. Ship design
ers have striven to build ships that
would not rock. Engineers have en-
deavored to incorporate swinging
bridges and like devices for the accom-
mediation of those who would be likely
to suffer from the malady of the sea.
Medical men have endeavored to ar
rive at some form of treatment which
would save their patrons the incon-
venience and suffering Of a marine ex-
cursion, but there seems to be no abso-
lutte remedy. Robert Barany. a Nobel
prize winner, advances the theory that
it is due to the action Of triplicate
arrangement of canals Of the inner
ear which are disturbed by the repeated
and unexpected movement and this in
a measure is said to account for the
fact that deaf persons seem to be i'm
mune While the condition of ones
stomach and general health may have
some influence, this influence cannot
be very important. for the healthiest
persons are as liable as others.

KISSING is BENEFICIAL,
DECLARES SCIENTIST
Exchange of Microbes Approved as
zone of Most Delightful Poetic
Sex Expressions"

LONDON IN. A. N. AD.-Dr. Josiah
Oldfeld has recently been lecturing to
women en- the perfect kiss-a danger
Gus subject; but then DR.. Oldheld is a
bold man. He declares that the pseudo
scientific ban on kissing is based on a
fallacy.
IF Jack kisses Jill" he says, and
transfers to her a million OF his NIL
crobes he gets in return a million OF
hers, and from what We know of evolu-
ticn the probability is that this ex-
change of microbes is beneficial. Kiss
ing, both in practice and in theory, has
now a recognized and respectable posi-
ton. In spite of its vulgarization by
the recrudescence of the cave man
fashion, kissing still remains one of
the most delightful and fascinating OF
poetic sex expressions.
Then, remembering what becomes
him as scientist. he adds: kissing
is the result of two sets Of emotional
cellular vibrations which attract each
other and become tremendously merged
into a rich chord by contact"

gin DAY" HELPS
COTTON GROWERS
System Aids in Keeping Long
Staple Strain Pure to Meet
World Needs.

BY the Associated Press.
AUBURN, Ala. July 3.-"Gin days"
arranged by Alabamarcounty agents, are
proving useful in helping Southern cot
ton growers to meet world competition.
For many years cotton spinners Of
Alabama objected to Alabama grown
cotton because the staple and quality
failed to meet requirements of the trade.
Many Of them went elsewhere for their
raw material.
But in recent years the D. P. L. 4-8
variety delta Pine Land has been in
troduced.
Auburn Sponsors ID. p l..
This variety originated in Mississippi.
put was developed and introduced to
farmers by the experiment station of
Alabama Polytechnic Institute
This cotton was found in tests with
other varieties to be a prolific yielder
and to produce a staple averaging an
inch in length, which is the length most
in demand
Ahrough county agents and farm bu-
reaus buying and planting of this va
riety OF seed has been encouraged.
On gin days" only this variety of
cotton IS ginned, in order that the
strain may be kept pure for seed.
100000 Bushels of Pure Seed.
More than 100000 bushels of seed of
this variety were kept pure at gin
Gays" in the Fall of 1880 and planted
this Spring, says p. o. Davis of the De-
partment OF information at Auburn.
BY 1888 many counties in the State
VIII have eliminated all other varieties,
II is anticipated, and a few counties ex-
pect to complete the job by 1892.
Cook 1927 Is another acceptable va
riety. as it is similar to D. P. L. 40
IN south Alabama where cotton will
exist farmers are clinging TO Cook BOTS
because 1t is wilt-resistant.
