Wash i , Noy I.ao to the countst year fromi theravAges of the co . bell *eqfil, were estimated in a apch in h' fe Senate today by Sepator' O. D. Smith at "o less than - ,250000o0q. ;,He bictured many parts -of tho South as Impoverished iy he ipsedt and by the clothing.indus of Ageries as being serioitislyg A feeted. 'l'he senator expressed the opinion thatrx r to seven nillion bales f cotton Vaye been destroyed by the evil thi-fear. "Oinnlloion bales wee wilped out . he State of South Carolina, which t t .enty cents a pound, means that, ,00 ,000,000 in primary value is one. Multiply that by the eleven cot $on g owing States and Senators can inder tand what this year's loss eans8 to America. It means $7,000, 00,000 in, rimary loss, with its added lue. as. it moves on up through he different stages 'of manufacture." Ssaid He said the possibility was - that - next 1year would be still more dis . ,astrous than thIs, an dthe 'outlook for Jvorlq consumption was "very grave ; ;mdeed." The world is now consum .ing cotton iccording to officials sta tistis, Senator Smith declared, at the j.te of 16,000,000 bales a year. Senator Smith, after calling atten tion to the ravages of the boll weevil nd1the reduction of -the supply here, ,Oxpressed surprise that the prices of cott6h were stiff dropping, le thought the only relief for the agri ictural interests was to "fight the Alevil with fire" For the farmers to organize their own cooperative sell ng companies, their own cooperative n and "out of the sweat of their row attend to their own business." IIt looks," le said, "as though cry law we have passed and every ort we have made to help the cot mn grower, becomes a breastwork d a bulwark from behind which hose who have fattened upon him rom time immemorial turn his bless tig 'into a curse." !NEW COMMANDMENTS, - TEN; COUNT 'EM 1.

KEEPINd'PURRI)ED STOCK INDUCES 1 ER FARMING The first fundamental of successful oultry kee ing' whether on the farm, n a city yard, or in the large plant is good stock. 'It is true that a good nany farmers and others get fairly good' results 'from ordinary stdck, but f othesame care and attention were devoted' to 'birds of better breeding more satisfactory returns would be made. There -'s-another behefit from keep ng, good stock " that ta no., easily 'measured but, nevertheless, is recog nized as having a big money value in the long run. rhat benefit is the gen eral improvement in the place, methods, and the man himself that comes from having birds that are above the ordinary. A malt who has well-bred stock talks about it and shows it to his neighbors. Naturally, he wants the surroundings of his flock to look shipshape and he takes pride in sowing a knowledge of feeds. and the methods of feeding. High-class stock of any kind has a tendency to bring other purebred ani mals to the farm. A good purebred animal continues its work -of improve ment indefinitely not only within its own class but everywhere on the farm from the field to the library. GEESE FED ON NOODLES , MAKE FINEST QUALITY A method said to produce a much better fattened goose than almost any other, involving, -however, consider able work, is that of 'stuffing the geese with noodles for three or four weeks. The feeder sits on a box in a corner of the pen, holds the goose be tween his legs, and stuffs it with noodles, usually beginning by feeding from 3 to 5 noodles three times daily, and increasing gradually to 6 or 7 noodles five times daily at 4-homU in tervals. The noodles are made of scalded corn meal, ground oats, ground bar ley, and ground wheat flour, using about equal parts of each. Add salt as for bread, thoroughly mix the feed, and put it through a sausage stuffer, cutting the products into pieces 2 1-2 to 3 inches long. Boil them for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they float, in a wash boiler containing a wire rack which stands 1 1-2 inches above the bottom of the boiler. Dip the noodles in cold vater and roll in fluor to keep them from sticking together. Pour hot. water over the noodles just before they are fed to make them slippery and keep them warm. The noodles are put into the mouth one at a time, and worked down with the hand on the outside of the neck. If any feed can be felt, no noodles are given at the next feeding time; other wise the bird will go off it's feed. Keep plenty of water before the geese. Young ganders - are used for this special fattening anl any older-gand ers or geese to be marketed. "Non-d led" geese average 25 to 26 pounds, and individual weight of nearly 40 pounds have been obtained.

Advertising is more necessary to day to Manufacturers and Retailers than ever before. It can -be used to help restore the proper balance of trade, prod ce more work through em ptying the dealers' shelves. The soon or any business-and especially the retail business- price their present inventories so that the public will rush in and buy, the sooner salesmen who now have goods to sell will have an opportunity to get real substantial orders fron the Retailers. Orders from Retailers will help the Manufacturers make up their minds to help sell their goods to the Cnsum to help sell their goods to the Consum -tising-provided the price and the quality of the merchandise are right will help the Retailer sell. the Consum er at less cost than through any oth er means. When you stop to consider that an advertiser may use a National or lo cal newspaper campaign at a cost of 1-10 of a cent per hoic reached, you can readily understand why newspap er advertising pays so well. If advertising can be used to re store proper buying by the Consum er-and I know it can if properly us ed-then automatically the unemploy ment problem will be solved and solv ed quickly. So let us all set about to see what we can do to help solve- this unem ployment problem by getting behind a "Every American build a home" campaign-and also through our ef forts to help the Retailers clear their shelves through energetic and per sistent advertising and Salesmanship.

As a result, new nerves, those here tofore restful and quiescent, spring into activity, they cry ou t, thCy tingle, they burn in their unrest. The network of nerves across the abdomen, the loins, the back and other parts now become super-sensi tive. All these nerves are being called on to perform unusual duties. These nerves must be pacified and comforted; must be put in condition for the crisis that is pending. If these nerves are not soothed and quieted, they may set up aggravated nerve tension, increasing in severity from month to month, sometimes even culminating in a nervous paraly sis of the back and limbs. This leaves the mothcr-to-be in a condition where she is unable, fully, to meet the test when the climax of maternity arrives.
