STAPLE LENGTH Of
COTTON BEST EVER
Most of 1886 Crop Was
1916 Inch or Longer,
Showing Big Rise

College Station, Raleigh, April 20
The staple length of North Carolina
cottons last season was better than in
any previous year, declared Glenn R.
Smith, agricultural economist of the
Agricultural Experiment Station at
State College.
Mr.. Smith says over IS percent O.
the crop was 1916 inch or longer
while back in 1928, only 20 percent
of all the cotton was Of this length.
Last year, approximately So per
cent of the cotton crop in North Caro-
lima had a staple length of one inch to
one and one sixteenth inch," Smith
says. LESS than one percent was
shorter than 7-8 inch. In 1925 less
than five percent stapled as much as
an inch and 10 percent had a staple
length shorter than 7-8 inch.
Smith finds that the grade of the
cotton also has vastly improved but
this progress has been less spectacu-
lar than with the staple length. Since
farmers and ginners are becoming
aware of the Importance of producing
a high grade of cotton, the movement
will likely gain momentum, he says.
with this great improvement in
our cotton, we should expect the price
to rise relatively to other cotton AMI
it is true that significant improve
ment is noted,'' he says. However,
proper differentials for quality are
rarely made in the local markets for
individual bales though farmers as a
group have benefited from the i'm
provements made"

Thus the Mississippi senator favors
reductioni in expenditures simultane-
ously with an increase.
Of course it makes no sense.
If the chairman of the Senate's
Finance Committee reasons thus,
what can be expected from the lesser
experts in Congress?
FIGHT OVER LABOR
Oh, the financial argument will last
until June 30.
Even then, heaven knows what
sort of a decision will be arrived at.
But it will have to- be decision of
some sort.
Next row will start over labor
legislation.
The related rights of capital and
labor have been left wide open by the
Supreme Courts decision as to the
Wagner law.
The decision was, broadly speak
ing, labor victory, indeed, but 1t
leaves a. ,selni-infinity of details hang
ing fire. They will be. fought over no
end
B;t fhe3sfight will not start until
the financial controversy, has ceen
settled, at least temporarily.
SUMMER BATTLE SEEN
The capital Il and ! labor contest
should rage all summer.
Also:
Shall or, shall not the Supreme
Court be enlarged? That has not been
settled. either, by the Wagner case
decision.
And agriculture's interests, scarcely
! have been touched on.
| All those issues have been tied up
since the first of the, year.
| They are damned up, to break
loose at the end of June-when the
fiscal jam will have to be broken,
after a fashion.

"Folies de Mutt" the French Casino
revue from the Great Lakes EXPOSE
ton at Cleveland comes to the Steven
son theatre dnesday-matinee and
night, with it's half a hundred stellar
entertainers.
This ostentatious extravaganza was
originally produced for presentations
to the multitudes that crowded the
Cleveland Exposition. However the
original idea also held the intention of
taking the production on tour at the
conclusion of the Fair. With this
thought in mind the producers were
not unmindful of the fact that shows
produced as midway attractions do
not always lend themselves to ready
adaptation to toher surroundings.
This difficulty was overcome in the
premordial stages of production, as
will be witnessed by the sparkling,
fast moving parade of talent as pre-
sented in "Folies de Mutt now long
past the awkward stage in it's new
surroundings. With it's bevy of Fem
mine pulchritude and clinging closely
to the continental style with its Euro
pean comedy presented with an Anne
ricanized zest, it's scenes unfold in
rapid succession.
Truly spectacle of beauty, COM
edy treat and with it's artistic nudity
embeished so as not to offend even
the most modest audience.
"Folies de Mutt" was conceived and
staged by Mike Special and an i'm
ported staff of technical experts
whose combined efforts have wrought
a spectacle that has been acclaimed
by millions, both in it's home theatre
at the Exposition and in the various
cities where it has been presented

Raleigh, April 20.-North- Carolina

standing national authority on this
popular game bird.
Mr.. Stoddard inspected the State
game farm, near Fayetteville, and ex-
pressed highly favorable impression
with the equipment that has been set
up for the production of game birds
and animals for stocking publicly
owned areas in the State. He also
went over the Resettlement area in
Richmond, Scotland, and Moore coun-
ties with the State game commission
err and praised the game restoration
work there highly.
No other state has shown a greater
interest in quail rehabilitation pro-
gram on the scale contemplated in
North Carolina, Stoddard said. The
project contemplated in this State, he
pointed out, is such as he has had in
mind for years and had hoped to see
carried out.
Actual launching of the program tc
increase the supply of quail in North
Carolina being preceded by through
study of present conditions, in which
