""secretary Heater of the New Or-
. leans Cotton exchange entltnatea last
year-a southern production (not the
commcrolal crop) at 17.004.000 bales.
The United Slates government esti-
mate (16.134.93ti plus 791.464 »nter«)
Is 16.926.349—practically 17.000.000
bales. This was over 2.000.000 bales in
excess of the 1913 crop.
Now what happened with this
bumper 17.000.000-bale crop iu spite
of all the demoralized conditions ot
«rade and finance—the crop of which
It was said last fall we should not ex-
port 4.000,000 bales? The facta are
that the world used so much of It that
the total world's visible supply of all
cotton in midsummer this year^ was
only 5.435.168 bales against 3,522.276
bales a year before. In other worda,
with a 17,000,000-bale southern crop
to handle, the world's visible supply
increased only 1.900.000 bales. What
la going to happen thic year then.
witS the South offering 5.000.000 or
6,000,0000 bales less—and the produc-
tion of other countries also decreased.
And thla query brings me to another
point:
The World'a Crop Proapecta Juatlfy
Twelve Centa.
Mr W P. Q. Harding of the fed-
eral reserve board early in the sum-
mer secured reports from consular
officials all over the world indicating
a total cut in the world's cotton crop
this year of 5.000,000 bales, Egypt and
India reporting "radical reductions In
acreage." Since that time the pros-
pects have further declined.
But even if we accept this early
overestimate of the crop we see that
If last year's crop, being 5,000.000
bales bigger than this year's yet In-
creased the surplus only 2.000,000
bales, then this year's crop will
leave a 3,000,000 bale deficit—to be
drawn from the surplus.
The facts are, however, that even
a 12.000.000 bale estimate for the
South now seems too high. This s
not simply my view, but the view of
many experts, including so conserva-
tive and competent an authority as
the New York Journal of Commerce,
which has just declared that, in view
of present conditions, "the >ield
seems likely to be nearer 10000.000
than 12.000,000 bales." And now
romes the Wall Street Journal itself
quoting William S. Halliburton of
Daniel O'Dell * Co. as saying: The
rurrent season'a crop may be as low
as 10.500.000 balea. It l« entirely
within the reach of present condl-
tlona that we shall see IJVi^ent cot
ton before the end of tbo f*"00

MAKING MOSTjOF THE IRIS
By L. M. BINNINOTON.
Iris of all plants Is roost Indifferent
to Its surroundings, soil ond environ-
ment. With satisfactory attention It
gives wonderful results.
For German Iris, plant the roots
deeply: but the bulb should be cov-
ered »ery lightly unless planting lato
In the fall or very early In the spring,
when they should be planted about two
inchea below the soil level. At other
times Just barely cover them.
When hoeing in the summer it Is
The Japan Iris requires much differ-
ent treatment, while very easily han-
dled when their requirements ore un-
derstood. yet they are aoroewbat Ockle
The best results are obtained when
the aoll la very rich, well watered
and kept hoed ot all times.
wen noi io ur»« — - •
It Is liable to rot them at certain times
when they are more subject to this
decay than others, when covered deep
ly with soil: and doubly so after they
become larger.
All the culture they need Is to have
the soil kept free of weeds and hoed
very lightly or raked just so the crust
is broken or kept loose.
About November 1. before freezing
begins, give them a good hoeing and a
light'dressing of manure after the hoe-
ing. Plant or divide at any time.
A few very good sorts are floren-

vety purple; all very free

If tho federal reserve act had been
drafted for the benefit of southern
producers." Just because the reserve
act doesn't give the farmers all the
help they need—Just because It
doesn't take the place, nor profess to
take the place, of the much-needed
rural credits legislation-is no reason
for denying or minimizing the great
advantagea it does offer.
The federal reserve system does
enable the banks in the South where
money is needed, to draw upon the
great reserves in other sections for
making loans on the cotton crop; or
as Mr. W. P. G. Harding of the fed-
eral reserve board officially says.
Banks have now ample facilities which
they have never bef°re enJ°>ed for redia
counting the notes taken "U®J
loans, and It Is for them mo" ^»r
any other agency, to determine Uie policy
of the South ln regard to the marketing
at the present cotton crop.
And President Woodrow Wilson In
a letter to Mr. Harding writes: It Is
evident from what you tell me. that
the country banks with whom the
farmer and other producers directly
deal can get money at from four to
four and a half per cent I think
that we can confidently expect that
the banks ln the cotton states and1 in
the agricultural regions generally will
content themselves with a rate not
more than one or two per cent above
the rate which they themselves pay.
It is up to the banks to Justify this
faith expressed by the head of
nftAnd the crop can be warehoused.
Mr. Harding points out that even last
fall the South had facilities for stor-
ing 11.577.465 bales, and these facili-
ties have been greatly Increased sines

co-operation of all forces can we sav>r

Wires often accidentally come into
contact with trees by the displacement
of poles, particularly on curves, where
the strain is very great, but much ol
this injury may be prevented by im-
bedding the poles in Portland cement.
It should be pointed out that the ne-
cessity for guying poles to trees may
be obviated in this way.

What cultivation, pruning and spray-

as sucessful in Iowa as in the much-
touted western districts was fully
shown at the big Council Bluffs or-

care of horticulturists from Iowa State
College at Ames, yielded 4.000 bush-
