The rule this country must depend upon is to make the very best of the situation. o Conditions brought about by the European war will evidently be worse this year than last for the reason that the war is now in full swing, while last season saw it only fairly started. o It is good to look on the bright side, and that is what some of the business men and newspapers in this lMf n wrv ~ " ? 1 - A 1 ^.uuutituc vivmh^ its regarus me prosperity as they expect to see it a few months later, ? i j COTTON ACREAGE. While some of the farmers undoubtedly cut down the usual amount of cotton planted for the crop of 1915, it appears that others diregarded the warning of the low prices of last season and planted some more than they ever did before. We know one planter who has one hundred acres of cotton this year and only had fifty acres last year. There :.'*c some other instances within the knowledge of business men that we might mention. Whether or not the acreage has been cut a sufficient amount to raise the prices of the crop when it is harvested a little later, is more than anybody can tell, though the agricultural department has gathered some figures concerning the acreage reduction which the department thinks will be sufficient for the purpose intended. Very often a farmer in the early Spring intends to cut down the acreage of a certain crop he has been in the habit of planting, and some weeks later he changes his mind and plants rnoro than ever. In the mean time his report may have been made either by h imself or someone else and this report is never corrected. o WHAT DOES IT? What is it produces the kind of crank who, like Frank Holt, imagines he can bring the results he wants by Violating the law. Holt started in by trying to blow up the national capitol and when his bomb had exploded he went to the residence of J. P. Morgan and fired two bullets at him. His explanation for these lawless deeds was that he wanted to make the United States take notice and wanted to " argue with Mr. Morgan and show him that it was in his power to stop the sending of arms and munitions of war to the warring nations in Europe and thus put an end to the war. He is an educated man. What ran him crazy? He could hardly have been crazy from the beginning of his career, or he I Mfrriiv ?- . ?WUh? ?? could not have held the positions he did in two of the noted institutions of learning in this country. The only 1 reason we can give for his diseased mental state is that he over-exercised his brain and exercised it for results in the wrong direction. He began his trouble with too much thinking about the evils of war which of course should be avoided if they could be.1 His mind at first saw that it had tak- | en up a helpless task. Instead odropping the subject and bending his energy toward the accomplishment of all the good he could do in the world as an individual, letting the world1 take care of itself, he brooded over it j and the result was an unbalanced mirwl Iti nm? ?1 l ?.? \zwi VJ7HUV/H tucxc (iic piumy of men m the world to-day who study too much about the wickedness and other things that are unpleasant in the world as we find it to-day and as it in fact has been since the creation. They succeed in doing very little as j individuals toward the betterment of mankind, and in some cases result in lunatics, who like Holt, break but in unexpected places, with crime that shock the universe.
