Stubbs and Brabeale, rival candidates for governor of Louisiana, who have chal- j lenged each other to a milking con- j v test instead of a joint debate, accept the inviatfbn of the dairy show to pull j off the affair on the eighth of next month in the Windy City. The showoffers to furnish cows of national re- j nown for the match. A special trainload of dairy farmers from Loisiana and Mississippi are expected to attend the dairy show on Southern Day, when Gov. Pleasant of Louisiana and other prominent South ern men will speak about the progress j made in and the opportunities offered for the dairv and live stock industries , in the South. C. M. Staples, dairy ex- , pert of Louisiana University, will act as guide, philosopher and friend for ' the Louisiana^ delegation to the show*, j while L. A. Higins of the Mississippi '< Agricultural College, Starkville, Miss., j; wil head the contingent from that State. Mr. Staples is an enthusiast on the ; subject of building up the dairy indus- : try in the Southern States and has pro- j posed that a milk show be held in New Orleans next spring. To Mr. j i Staples and C. S. Ucker, of Baltimore, ; vice president of the Southern Settle- | ment and Development Organization, j has been delegated the task of pre- j: k senting the facts about the South to j the dairymen at Chicago assembled ; P from, all parts of the world, and to | urge that the next annual dairy show ; be held in a Southern city, which may j be New* Orleans or some other fur- | y ther east or north.

I Reports indicate that a flourishing j dairy industry is being built up in 1 Leon County. Jefferson County, and j the adjoining section of Florida. The ! Seaboard Air Line has established a j refrigerator ear route and is now ship- j ping daily 1500 gallons of n-.ilk from j west Florida to Jacksonville, whereas j t ! but two or three years ago there was j very little dairying done in Florida. I About 1100 gallons daily are being i shipped from Leon County and Sea- j board officials believe that the pros- J pects indicate in another six months I I 1000 gallons per day will be shipped : from Jefferson County. The elimination of the battle tick, j which is rapidly going forward in ; Florida will permit very large expan- ! sion of the dairy industry in that state i it is believed by experts familiar with ; the situation rthere. And it is con- j ceded that there is need for it in other j Southern states as wen as norma, at- ; spite the large growth that has already j occurred, in view of the fact that milk and cream are still shipped by the carload from Northern States to many Southern cities.

EXPORT FOR COTTON* TO STABILIZE PRICK Atlanta. Ga., Sept. 20.?Southern bankers, business men and farmers must .take an important part in the immediate development of an export market for cotton if they hope to stabilize cotton prices according to W. P. G. Harding, of Washington, D. ('.. governor of the Federal Reserve Board, who has been in Atlanta to attend a cotton conference under the auspices of the American Cotton Association. llr. Harding says he has no fear as to financing the present crop, hut he does have fear as to the direction such financing is going to take. Bong time credits must be arranged for European buyers, and with congress refusing to grant any further war time credits the Southern interests are now face to face with a situation where such credits must be provided if there is to he any export business in cotton in any magnitude, according to Mr. Harding. Officials of the Georgia. Division of the American Cotton Association are highly pleased over the results of the cotton conference held in Atlanta. A number of these officials in company with J. S.
