The I %m dham -as some ext xtra good Sov Department's object is to demonstrate the advisability of having the farm er's cotton graded and stapled by a competent disinterested party. The Department feels that the farmer should have the same information as to the grade and staple of his cotton as the prospective purchaser; the Dc partment also feels that this service vill be welcomed by cotton buyers as it removes the possibility of suspicion from the mind of the farmer as to the buyer not grading and stapling his cotton properly." "Two-thirds of the counties of the State have made application for the appointment of these graders. We have secured a sufficient number of g-ad ers to supply twenty couities," "We want to diesbuse. thl Wrnds of the cotton trado tha(j),. any aItkVvJ- - se mien are in any ,tic to their inter ats w \ the cotton trade to un that these men are to serve tP.dially the buyer and the seller. , he Government is determined that this first step in the scientific market ing of the farmer's eotton shall be iade a success."

The advan tage of a choice of several sires is the wider opportunity to make desirable matings, thus hastening progress in gradling up a herd. In many other localities dairymen are combining their forces, sometimes with the object of testing bulls before sending them to the block, sometimes to save expense, and sometimes to give local predominance to one breed or another. An informal combination of this sort is often highly useful. This is not the same thing as a bull association. The cooperative bull asso ciation is an institution designed to ac complish these and many other obpects on -. larger scale, by a form of or ganization which has been extensive ly tried an(d perfected by experience. It is reconmnended by the department that farmers should give consideration to the benefits they can secure for themselves by a closer and more effee tive union of interests in a properly o)rganized bull association. ------o - ARIIEST'E) WIH''1 $5,000 IN LOOT Spartanbu'ire.
