present cotton crop will fall short of
the 11.637.000 hales estimate issued
yesterday by the United States department
of agriculture, according j
to Henry N. Pope, president of the!
Association of State Farmers' I'llon
Presidents. The government's]
rst estimate was for a crop of more!
than 14.000.000 bales but this lias
I ncen reuuceu iJ.immi.imhi unit's nv reI
vised figures and is said to be
caused by climatic atid pest damage
but according to President Pope
these two factors ar going to be instrumental
in further reducing the
revised estimate.
"The top crop which is the smallest
in history has also been generally
over estimated" said Mr. Pope, "and
the present cotton crop is one of the'
largest acreage, is the smallest yield
per acre within 20 years and the in- t
dications are it will bring the high- i
est aggregate price of any crop in
the history of the cotton industry.
It is an established fact that small 1
production is usually followed the
next year by a large acreage and a ]
heavy yield. The cotton farmer will
never get out of debt or the tenant
become a home owner until we get i
a reasonable price for a reasonable 1
crop. Ever since the South has been
planting 30,000.000 acres in cotton <
each cotton farmer has been selling <
cotton at about three cents per i
pound less than cost of production, i
The only protection of a cotton far- 1
mer acainst a calamity of low price
is in a 12 cents loan minimum by
government or some agency capable
of protecting it.

CAN'T IjOSE HAIR.
Twenty Years from Today a Baldheaded
Man Will He an Unusual
Sight.
One of the most prominent druggists
of America made a statement
a few weeks ago which has caused a
great deal of discussion among scientists
in the medical press.
He said: "If the new hair grower,
Mildredina Hair Remedy, increses
its sales as it has during the
past year, it will be used by nearly
every man. woman and child in
America within eight years.
"When Mildredina Hair Remedy
Is used almost universally, dandruff
will disappenr and with its departure
baldness, itching scalp, splitting hair
und all scalp diseases- will follow
and twenty years froiu now a bald
head will be a rarity."
There is only one way to cure dandruff,
and the 1b to kill the germs.
There is only one hair preparation
that will kill the germs and that is
Mildredlna Hair Remedy. This unusual
hair restorer with its record
of thousands of cures will grow hair
on any head where there is any life
left; it will cure dandrufT, stop falling
hair and itching of the scalp to
three weeks or money back.
It is the most pleasant and invigorating
tonic, fc not sticky, or
greasy and is used extensively by ladles
of refinement who desire to have
and to keep their hair soft, lustrous
aud luxuriant. Fifty cents for
a large bottle druggists everywhere.
