Augusta Advertises Its Cotton Exchange Augusta, Ga., Sept. 12.—The mem bers of the Augusta Cotton Exchange, including the bankers, fertilizer con cerns, cotton a|pd oil mills amd other business interests as well as the cot ton, factors, cotton merchants, export ers fr.d buyers, are interested in pro-, moting Augusta as a big cotton mar-, ket, believing that it will react favor ably fo every interest in the entire Augusta district, including the small towns of the section. They are not only urging farmers to study the mar keting situation, but they recommend that cotton be stored carefully to pre vent weather damage and that insur ance he taken bo cover the valuable product, as every now and then some farmer loses ' considerable cotton through negligence on this score and weather damage is general when hold ing movements are extensive. The advancing tendency of cotton, together with the prospects of still higher prices, is causing many fanners to hold to the fleecy stanle, and in order to asist materially in this work every preparation has been made by the Augusta Cotton Exchange mem bers toll assist fanners in any under taking along this Hne they may have in mind by providing liberal advances on cotton, low storage, interest and insurance rates, making it -pqssible to carry cotton for an indefinite period at a nominal cost The Augusta Cotton Exchange re- Govfcrnment that they don’t want any more reclamation work done, no more irrigation ’canals, no more land drained or deserts irrigated until the price of farm products increases. Thosfc are the farmers that have voted to keep out the first-class European immigration that this country needs, the immigration that would provide mouths to eat all the fanners can grow and more. They vote to keep out customers for the farms, and Vould vote to prevent development of the country. But they will not prevent it * No extensive development began now would have any effect or add one acre to cultivatable land In lew than ten to fifteen years. By that time, in the natural course of events, the population df the country will increase by twenty millions. The farmers, more than any other class, are interested in canal develop ment, which would take, as Mr. 'Hoover has shown, from -eix to twelve cents a bushel from the freight charge of export wheat, and increase the price oi American wheat by that amount per -bushel k — ' V to ' F Professor Hemps, of Budapest, is reported to have perfected a new «•*»» fr.f hvHrot-K,4> 1-Mter than the Pasteur antitoxin. la one year 3.063 persons bitten by mad cats and dogs were all cured, and every one pf them, except four, within a few days. That’s good news, but it would be better to wipe out hydrophobia as the British have done. Every dog is kept in quarantine for a necessary length of time, and no hydrophobia case was known in England until re cently, when a flier brought a dog through the air escaped the qraran- tine and started a smaH epidemic The secret of health is cleanliness, inside and out Clean hmgs, clean * blood, dean dunking prolong life and fight disease rosy, thst killed thousands and ' upon as a necessary visi tation from above, was another word for filth ^ In Africa a strange, destructive lever swept acrow the great dark continent, 60.000 were killed by H, quarantine stations were established without success. t * Soap, water and disinfectant would have done the work. Disease is car ried by vermin. Before asking why the natives do not free themselves of the vermin, we muM remember that it isn’t so long m this country since ^country mpvJI Jbe absence of vermin as a sign of ill health. * They thought, the tidv children abandoned, unhealthy children.^ They also thought that the mosquito’s bite, which actually put malaria in the . blood, was a good fcure for malaria. 1 , - ■ . Mr. Will C. Wood, California’s superintendent of Public Instruction, says that school hours should be made longer, and recommends legis lation-to the effect. He is-mistaken, the hours should be made shorter if there is to be any change. Two hours a day, or three at the most, a child properly taught could learn all that its mind could absorb in one day. No hours of sunlight should be spent indoors unnecessarily. For centuries men quarreled aljout the nature' of the soul. W'^s h com posed of solid matter or was it pure ly spiritual?
