STANDARDIZED
COTTON CROP
Uniform Staple for Gins
May Raise Profits, Is
Believed
By JAMES w. CAMPBELL
United Press Staff Correspondent

MEMPHIS, Tenn, July 2S.-
(UP).-The south is taking a les
son from California on how to
grow cotton more profitably.
Pointing to the San Joaquin
valley of California where only
one variety of cotton is grown
and to state laws there that for
bid growers to plant any staple
other than Acala as an example
of what can be done with stand
ardzed crop, officials of the Cot
ton Improvement association are
conducting an extensive campaign
to limit districts to growth OF
one variety of cotton. This var
iety is selected by majority vote
of the farmers.
The association. non-protlt
unincorporated organization with
out capital stock. is operating
throughout the cotton belt and al
ready hundreds of communities
have begun work toward attain
ing staple uniformity.
The association has five obJec'
tives:
|. To Standardize production
by growing only one superior va
riety Of cotton that is best adapt
ed to local conditions from the
standpoint of yield. length, uni
formity, character of staple. mar,
kct demand and net returns to
growers.
.. To obtain marketing advan'
tages for cotton by maintaining
it's production year after year SO
that large, even-running lots OF
fiber of the same quality may be
made regularly to the trade.
3. To establish and maintain
conditions of production that arc
necessary to preserve the quality
of the fiber and purity of the
planting seed.
1. To produce and make avail
able to growers in community
pure planting seed.
5. To adopt improved methods
of handling the crop including
extra care in harvesting, hand,
ling. ginning. baliuG and housing.

sWered correctly, Mrs. Hubbard s
entry contained a brief statement
concerning the Holy Bible that
was adjudged the best by a jury
of five Minneapolis clergymen.
Her essay:
Incompatible in simplicity and
style, THE HOLY BIBLE sets
forth the accumulated lciSdon OF
centuries and stimulates material
groUth.
1t reciteS the lUorld'S greatest
poems, the greatest dramas, the
strangest human experiences.
Year after year, it deepens
faith, brightenS hope, and pro
vides spiritual guidance for mil
lions of readers.
Her contest answers were con-
tanned in a red book with white
cathedral outlined in black on
the cover.
Long years of Sunday school
attendance and teaching, coupled
with a real pleasure in reading
the Bible account for her famll-
iarity with the Scripture. 1.-THE
verses are so familiar they look
like old friends" she says.
Because her husband is i'll and
she is also taking care of her
aged mother, Mrs. Hubbard did
not expect to be able to make the
trip to Minneapolis to receive the
award until the last minute, when
one friend loaned her an auto
mobile and another volunteered
to drive the car.
Several years ago she won $50
in another Bible contest.

Winning the $1,000 first prize
in Minneapolis newspapers
Bible game was thrill enough
''but the loveliest part of the
whole experience was the ex-
pressions of joy and pleasure
from my friends in Redwood
Falls and surrounding towns %
according to Mrs. F. C. Hubbard
of Redwood Falls.
Mrs. Hubbard was presented
with the $1,000 check by Mark
Question in the Umbrella Court
broadcast from the Gold room of
Hotel Radisson over KSTP Sat-
urday evening. Until the time of
the broadcast she had not been
told that she was first prize Win
ner, only that she was among
several winners of big prizes.
81 have such a feeling of
gratitude to those who made it
possible for me to be at the
broadcast. 1t was such a grand
contest and the editors should be
commended for putting on con-
tests of that type" she said on
her return here.
If Mrs. Hubbard was apprecia-
tive of her friends good wishes,
they were appreciative of her
good fortune. ''There isn't any,
one we'd rather see win it." was
the concensus.
Since the announcement of her
prize was made she has received
showers" of notes from friends.
"The first fan mail I ever got" is
her pleased comment.

est number of Bible pictures an

 "Why, Uncle Sandy! I told you I was fed up with New York. Can't you understand" She forced sincerity into her tones. "I'b be 8 wage-slave there forever. But on the tracks-why, women are being licensed as trainers today"
 "Whoa, there!" Life was coming back into the old frame. Sandy was of the older generation of turfmen, who say women and racing don't mix. "A lady, Linda, can"
 "Oh, yes, she can, too, old fos- sill" She reached up and tweaked his ear. Uncle Sandy, in the past 10 years the world has jumped two centuries ahead. When I was tiny girl, ladies couldn't do any, thing but teach school. Remem- Der? Today, we fly planes across the Atlantic, argue before the Nine Old Men, snap your appendix out while you wait-and send horses out to the Derby. Get me?" She laughed.

 Uncle Sandy thought she had money. She had nothing, save secondhand car and $500. She turned cold with fright. She had done cruel thing - letting him think she had muhc money. A good colt by Pompey why, he should bring five thousand!
 Then she remembered that the Lord tempers the wind to the shorn lamb. She began laughing hysterically: C. Dear God, I'm the shorn lamb-give me a chance, God, please ="

 You forget the funny will his uncle made - in boom days. Will was a millionaire, then. He left twelve hundred thousand to the college and his wife's church and a hospital; Bruce was to get what was left over--residue, they call it."
