mgf COTTON GINNED TO WS& SEPTEMBER 1 Sixty-four Thousand Bales 3Iore Than m for Same Period Last Year? Brehking- All Records. Washington, September 8.?The greatest quantity or cotton ever 511111ed in the period prior to September H 1 was reported by the census bureau today, when it was announced 794,006 WF bales, counting round as half bales, y of the growth of 1913, had been put out from the ginneries throughout 1 the South since the beginning of the BL ginning season. SB The heavy ginnings for this first & period of the season are the result of an early maturing of the crop and of an effort of the farmers to beat B the boil weevil, in the opinion of cenHr sus bureau officials. - All States reported an increased growing for the period over last year's total for that time with the exception R of Texas and XortTn Carolina. Last V year to September 1 there had been W ginned 5.4 per cent of the entire crop; in 1911 the quantity was 5 per cent. ^ This compared with 730,935 bales in 1911, and 353,011 bales in 1910. Round bales included in this report numbered 7,584, compared with 7,434 for last year. Sea island included 430, compared with 232 for last year. Ginning by States to September 1: stptpc? 1913. 1912.

Hoss, of the Methodist | <i Episcopal cfaurch, South, urged ministers attending here today to refrain from tobacco, and characterized total oKoHnonoo fmm the weed as one of (a uo wiiv-iAvv ** WM -?^ the distinguishing marks of a gentleman. While he was speaking several preachers were smoking on the lawn in front of the church. / " The bishop asked those who attended the general conference in Oklahoma next year especially to refrain from smoking. He then asked for a rote endorsing /his views as to the general conference, but several ministers voted "no." The bishop then told a story to illustrate how some neople smoke on the sly, and he got a unanimous vote endorsing his views. "WMDOft TO HEAR FARMERS.

Chicago, September 8.?(A. Burt m Muir, an expert accountant, who spent from Saturday until today in a cell in a police station while detecm tives investigated serious charges brought by his wife, was released tow day upon signing a peace bond.

Perhaps you can't have "a fine house" to live in, but you can have a pretty one. To begin wits, we suspect you ca-n 1 paint it, even if you do think you "can't afford" to do so. And a painted farm house will give you a new distinction in your neighborhood, and will be a mark of progress your other neighbors may follow. Then, arrange to plant some shrubs and some bulbs of old-fashioned flow ers this fall and such new trees as you need. The blossomings crape myrtle, with its profusion of beauty, is now adding glory to many a Dixie homestead, and the fragrant mimosa is scenting the air with a perfume as rich as that Which marks the breezes that "blow soft over Ceylon's isle.''

Farmers in colder climates would pay heavily to have them, but our farmers too often neglect them because perhaps they cannot be had in the neighborhood. Order them from a nursery. There is indeed no excuse for anybody not. haying a pretty home, no matter how humble it is. We have ? T- *? ?

The simple morning-glory and plenty of cheap whitewash will make any place look beautiful if the grounds and walks are well kept. In this connection, we reprint again the famous "government recipe" for whitewash and would suggest that every reader cut it out and put it away in his Bihlck fnr roforpnpp rio-ht hptwppn thp Old and Xew Testaments where it can be easily located. But before putting it there, why not get busy with it and whitewash all the outbuildings on your place?and if you can't paint your house, why whitewash it also? Now that you have laid by your crops, the best work you can do is to beauti::y your home. The whitewash recipe follows: "To make the so-called 'government whitewash,' slake a half bushel of lime with boiling water. Cover during the operation to keep in the steam. * ^ ^ ~ /V Kriiii'r! fV?T?AnorVi o Oil am LliC HljUlU 1.111 uugii a. uuv V or cloth strainer and add to it a peck of salt, which has previously been dissolved in warm water/ Then dissolve one pound of clean glue by soaking it well or heating in double kettle, and add to the whitewash, together with three pounds of rice pounded fine and boiled to a paste, and a half pound of Spanish whiting. Then place the compound in a small kettle, place this kettle into a larger one containing water and bring to a boil. When the substance begins to bubble, | remove it from the fire and add five gallons of boiling water. Cover it up and let stand for a few days. When wished for use, reheat and apply while hot. "Coloring can be added in the proper proportions to secure the desired shade. Venetian red can be used. For cream color, add yellow ocher; for pearl or lead, add lamp black or ivory black, for fawn, add proportionately four pounds of umber to one pound of black; for stone color, four pounds ofumber to two pounds of lamp black will give desired results." !?The Progressive Farmer.

Surely the earth must 'have opened and swallowed them up after the manner of the disappearance of the witches on the blasted heath in Macbeth.
