coxER coTrTON. In View of 31any In(uiries, Mr. Dur can Secures Info xation From Mr. Ira W. Williams. Since the publication of Mr. Smyth letter about long staple cotton, I hav been asked the length of the Cok2 or Hartsville cotton, tnat was plante by so many demonstrators this yea: that I decided it best to write Mr. Ir W. Williams, and this is his reply: "our letter of September 10 r( ceived. In regard to the Hartsvill cotton it is better to, give 1 1-8 staplb though planted in Pickens and Greer vilje co'unties last year it gave 1 1 staple and some of it sold as high a '24 cents per pound." To get best' prices, staple cotto should be picked clear of trash, an ginned very slow and with a ver loose roll. Be careful not to get any short sta ple mixed with it or any tinged Lon staple. S. M.

The Biblical basis for the observ ance of the first day of Tishri as a New Year's day and the most solemn day of the Jewish calendar next to Yom Kippur, or the Day of Atonement,, found in the reference to Zikkaron (memorial day") in Leviticus xxiii, , which reads; ..- - "In the seventh monith, in the first dy of the month, shall ye have a abbath, a memori"g of blowing of tumpets, a holy convocation."] Ezra also refers' to the day as one "oly to the Lord."

It is a day of memorial 1 or a day of remembranCe, reminding te Je w of the duty of the self-exam iation and self-judgment. To arouse te conscience to this solemn task the eremony of souniding the shofar or~ am's horn, forms an important fea tre of the service.

The Day of Atonement or Yom Kip pur, which marks the culminating point of the Hebrew penitential season s distinguished by the abstention of food and by an elaborate ceremonial. The purpose of thie Day of Atonement is clearly indicated by its name. It is intended to complete and crown the enitential season, begun on the first day of Tishri (New Year) by finally reconciling ,the soul, with the Alnmigh ty. The day is spent in prayer and editation. It is kept too, as a fast. The Feast of Tabernacles will be celebrated also during this period. It is called in Hebrew Succoth, and lasts. eight days, the last being called the Day of Solemn Asseinlly. It is also known as the "feast of the ingather ing." The latter name signifies the gricultural nature of the feast. Editor Aull Visits Union. Union Progress, 15th. Col. E. H.
