New York, July 11, 1 DOti.?An emi ?nt food specialist recently made th miarkable discovery that all the in edients entering into the composi on of ice cream could be reduced t tiwder form, kept indefinitely, am hen ice cream was wanted it could b lickly made by adding a small quail ty of the powaer to a quart of mil id freezing, without heating or cook ig. thus doing away with all labor i aking ice cream ; and the proportion , each ingredient being absolutel irrect, the ice cream made from th iwder would always be the sam igh quality, absolutely pure and fre om disease germs or danger o Lomaine poisoning. No eggs, sngai kvoring or anything except milk i iquired to make the finest ice crear lorn the powder. After having bee irefully analyzed by Pure Food Com lissioners, it has been placed on tn arket under the name of JELL-t 3E CItEAM POWDER.

Columbia, July lib ? Special: In | an address issued today, President Smith, of the Southern Cotton Association, calls upon the county associations throughout the State to at once get together and reorganize for a vigorous campaign to keep the coining crop olT the market. He says that from every State in the j cotton belt comes information of I crop damage, and that the South I Carolina crop is in worse condition than for ten years. He wants the cotton held off the market during September, October and November, | for these are the months the specuj tutors are busy, and the mill men are laying in their supplies, realizing that this is debt-paying time, ?-.?.#I .... , ... -r r : <111VI <iii ujf^ui luuuj ui the small farmer to part with his j crop. The address follows: "Oil account of my sickness I have 1 >een unable to keep in touch with the people of the State through the press. I do not want any one to imagine that the work of the Association has in any way lessened. | I take this opportunity to call I the attention yf all the Association j to the fact that from every State in ; the Union there comes reliable in- i formation of material crop damage. ! There seems to be little prospect of a crop exceeding eleven million hales. The world consumed last year | twelve million, five hundred bales; the consumption this year will probably reach twelve million, seven hundred and fifty thousand bales. Therefore, not only for the remainder of the year, but for all of next year, there will Ihj practically no cotton in stock. If there ever was a time when the Southern Cotton ' Association as an organization could i demonstrate its power, that time j | has arrived. A strenuous effort should be made to keep the cotton from the market during the months of Septeml?er, October and November, for this is the time when the j speculators and the mill men lay in their supplies at the lowest possible price. Because that they recognize that this is debt-paying time, and the small farmer, tl e man who n eds the help and who needs everv i cent that this cotton can he made to hring, that this is the time he will he forced to part with his crop. The Southern Cotton Association " should hend every effort this Sopi tember, as soon as cotton, begins to 1 conic to the market, to- use its or- i '* ganized authority to keep every hale j possible off of the market, j" Year before last we began the year with considerable stock carried 2. i over from the enormous fourteen i million bale crop; this year we will )f | begin the cotton y :ar of liMX? and t- 15K)7 with practically no old cotton sr on hand, and with the world de-i manding more cotton than the new ' crop can supply. Therefore, I call upon every association in every county in the State ; to meet at once and devise ways; and means by which in every conn- j ty and township they can make j arrangements to keep the cotton off i the market during the first of the j ir ; cotton season by all means available, g The prospect in South Carolina,; g as I know from personal ohserva-, . ! __ ? A. l_ _ - * * >. i iion, is me poorest, ior ten y *ars. j I The country is l>eing flooded with ' pour literature; every ingenuity | known to the opposition is living i-! used to depress the price of cotton, e Eternal vigilance is the price of !" | all success and simply because we ()! have succeeded in gaining and j maintaining such a fine price for e cotton, let no man imagine that tl e ? opiKisition has weakened its force at _ all, for it is fighting more vigilantly | n than ever Ufore. s To show you the tremendous, y power of the Association, for the first time in the history of cotton ? e cotton that is chalk and paper cotf ton which heretofore has controlled ' the price of spot cotton,?was 100 1 n points higher in New York than the , n spot cotton was in Columbia, South | - Carolina. Which means that the ^ gamblers and speculators could run K pajier and chalk up and down to j suit their fancy. Hut for once in it the hist >ry < f the (ot'on j r aver, lie diil not allow the spot cotton to l>e influenced by any such gambling gymnastics. < My health is steadily improving, K and I shall be glad to address mass meetings during the month of Augh ust in South Carolina, i- Let every association be wide y awake, up and doing; for the great ,0 est part of our existence is now in our hands.
