CHANGE IN COTTON
GRADES BENEFICIAL
Officia Classification
Makes Standards Truer
to Crop Crown

College Station, Raleigh, March %
Changes in the official cotton grades
make the standards more representa-
tive of the crop that is now being
grown, said DR.. J. B. Cotner, profess
sor of farm crops at State College.
Most of the improved varieties do
not carry the deep cream color rep
resented in the old standards, he said.
Since this color does not add to the
spinning quality, the standards were
adapted to present conditions.
Yellow is not natural to cotton. Up
land cotton is normally white when
the bolls open, but it may take on a
yellow tinge from contact with yell
ow or red clay soils, or late cotton
may turn yellow by frost injuring the
bolls before they open.
The new University Cotton Stand
ards, to become effective August 20,
1886, will embrace nine white grades,
seven for extra white, three for gray,
five for yellow spotted, five for yell
low tinged and three for yellow stain
ed.
There are 80 new standards, as com
pared with 81 old ones, and the num-
Der of standard boxes has been de-
creased from Is to 10. The blue stain
ed grades have been dropped and the
yellow stained grades made more de-
scriptive.
The highest white grade, middling
fair, is made descriptive as are the
grades for extra white, which now
embrace good middling to good ordi-
nary, inclusive.
Only eight of the white grades and
five yellow tinged grades will be rep
resented in the official boxes. All the
other grades will be descriptive, Cot
ner stated.

named as manager by Mcdonald. Con-
seuuently, the selection of Lumpkln
came as a considerable surprise to a
good many here today, and as dis
tinct disappointment to the campaign
headquarters of both Clyde X. Hoey
and Lieutenant Governor A. H. Ora
ham, where it was being strongly hop
ed that Whitley would be named as
McDonalds manager. McDonald's OPP
ponents were confident that it he
named Whitley as his manager, this
would split the Mcdonald forces badly
in Wake, Johnston, Franklin ana
Chatham counties, as well as in other
counties in this WPA district, OF
which Whitley was formerly WPA ad-
ministrator. 1t is generally conceded
that Lumpkin has had great deal
more political experience than Whit
ley and that he has a much larger
Statewide following.
Not Laughing 1t Off.
No attempt was being made to
laugh off the naming of Lumpkin as
McDonald's manager in the headuar-
ters of the other candidates here to-
day. The other managers realize that
Lumpkin is an opponent of real
ability.
Lumpkin is expected to arrive here
within the next few days and open
McDonald's campaign headquarters
on either the seventh or eighth floor
of the Sir Walter hotel. The Graham
headquarters are on the tenth floor
and the Hoey headquarters on the
ninth floor.

tices Very Apparent-An Checked Cars to Bear Official Labels -PatrOImen Instructed to Tag

With only l2,5O0 cars of an ape proximate total of 3O,OOO in Water bury area presented for inspection at the lane on Thomaston avenue the state department of motor vehicles appealed for police aid to- day in speeding up the tests. ThouS- ands of red inspection notices were left at the lane and at the oflce of Supt. of Police William J. Roach, who will cooperate with state irs- pectors in their distribution.
 The slips will bear the signatures of Both Supt. Roach and State Motor Vehicle Commissioner Mish- ael 4. Connor. They bear also the following laconic warning:
 Section Cited
 According to the provisions of Section 6l7-c, chapter 06, of the general statutes of 1895, state of Connecticut and ruling of Commis- gioner of motor vehicles, this motor vehicle must be inspected during the first inspection period of 1886.
 "The absence of offlcial sticker in- dicates that this vehicle has not passed this inspection.
 This ticket is a warning to you to have this vehicle inspected at the nearest motor vehicle iilspec- ton lane. All stations are in oper- ation daily from 9 a. m. to 6 p. In., except Sundays and holidays, weather permitting"
 Police To Aid
 The notices will be distributed from the lane on Thonaston ave- nue, where inspectors will halt pass- ing cars to give them the warn- ings, and on the streets of the city, where patrolmeen will put them in all cars which do not display the windshield sticker given those pass- ing the tests.

Lltnpkin said that at the close of business last week l2,6O0 cars had been tested. The station will be closed July II, which means that within the next five weeks the bulk of the total registration for this area must pass through the lane.
 Jam Expecte
 Observers believe that the situa. ton at Hartford and other cities where the issuance of the red slips created a daily jam at the lanes will be duplicated here. Most of the motorists have put the mat ter of either through forgetful- ness or with the thought in mind that they may escape detection, 1t is believed. Warnings from the state department that full legal penalties, including revocation of registration, will be invoked in cases of failure to have cars inspected, have brought home to the public the realization that the tests are an absolute ne- cessity.
