Besides fixing the Immediate price of cotton at 15 cents, the National Farmers’ Union in session last week at Little Rock. Ark., took other Im portant action. It was decided that an especially essential matter is that of arriving at a uniform bale of cot ton In size and weight. Mr. J. (J. Eu banks, the State Business Agent for Georgia, stated the case thus: "We are considering whether It will be a round or square bale. Wo want cotton produced by Union farmers to reach the spinners In the best possible shape and we believe If we properly bale and cQinj:i^csM It we can get a pre mium over other staples.” Mr. Eubanks, who Is one of Polk's good citizens, was honored by elec tion as chairman of the board of Busi ness Agents for the ensuing year.

Di ai Sir: The easiest way we know of to make a little money Is—If you’re going to paint—to paint with the paint that takes least gallons. Take a small job; say It takes 10 gallons Dovoe, two coatH; that’s an rage house. When the Job is done and the bill comes-in, It Is $50; the paint etc. $17.50; the rest Is for labor and cartage; the labor Is fixing the surface, shifting ladders scaffolds pul leys and ropes, and brushing-on paint. Take another Job exactly like that; try another paint; it takes 12 gallons The bill U $10 more. Take another exactly the same; another paint; It takes 20 gallons. The bill Is $100. There Is only one Devoe; there’s a dozen 12-gallon paints, and 100 that take 20 gallons to cover a 10-gallon Job. The only difficulty Is In flnding-out Devoe. After that you save work; there’s less work In 10 than in 12 or 20 gallons; less paint to buy and less to brush-on and less wages to pay. If Devoe were only a little better than others, therc’d be some difficulty In finding out the difference. It goes twice aa far ns half the paints; that ought to be easy. It wears longer too. You’ll wait a good while. If you wait to flnd-out how long It wears; there are thous ands of people who know that the ast*-gallons paint wears longest. Yours truly, i f. w. devojs & ca P. S.

The most Interesting things In the September American Magazine—and, indeed, 6ne of the "star” pieces of reporting of the year—is Lindsay Denison’s description of "The Rev. Billy Sunday and his War on the De vil.” Sunday is the old time profes sional ball player who Is .said to have converted 100,000 people. He Is some times paid as much as $2,000 a month for his work. The story of his own conversion is one of the choicest things in the article. The American’s fiction is notable. "Beauty” Kenigan by Charles Belmont Davis is an excep tional story of newspaper and stage life. - . - cawtai.
