Atkinson presented the other view
when he dc>clared:
*‘We believe the policy of control
has operated ajrainst the very objects
we have .strived to olitain. Unless we
conserve our foreiprn markets, it will
dislocate a larjre percentaffe of our
cotton farmers.”
He said the srroup soujrht through
a subsidy for cotton sold on foreijfn
markets to provide a« “permanent
remisly."
“It is not an effort to furnish for-
eijrn markets wkh i«_ ^heap product,”
he said, “but an effort to maintain!
Part Two
The next item to consider is color
harmony. There are three general
types:
1. Shades *of the same color.
vJosily relate colors.' "
3. Contrasting colors. ,
In any color combination there
should be one dominant tone. In ar
ranging flowers of several colors in
tones a much better effect is ob
tained by holding each color togeth
er in an interesting mass rather than
dotting it about hit-or-miss among
other tones. Spotty colors are dis
tracting to the eye. Combinations of
C'llors well planned are more dis
tinctive than are color arrangements.
The darkest colors .should be kept
neare.st the center of the arrange
ment, and. the lighter colors on the
outside.H.
The next thing to consider is bal
ance. The highest point must come
(ITrectly above the center of the baste.

Notes
C. B. Canaoa, Ownty Agent
When two arrangements are used on
one table, you must use the same
flowers and make a similar desigrn.
More original, hdwever, is the center
decoration that can be seen and en-
jo3MKi~-by--aU.— Make—your^ arrange*-
ment low enough^ for conversation
across'the table. Never use an untra-
modern cloth for old china, pewter or
glass containers. A damask, linen
or lace cloth demands fine china,
porcelain or glass, and flowers to
match. White flowers in a silver
boWl are .splendid for a formal center
piece.

Atkinson was interrupted frwfuent-

They bought our cotton with our

If the flowers have varying col
