'.Another thing Mr. Moon saw was a peculiar looking object sailing up straight to a bright star nearby. Looking with all his might he discov ered .that it was Mr. Sprinkle-Blow’s magic umbrella, and astride it was the fairyman, Naincy and Nick. The three of them landed and went straight to a barrel marked “Dense Fog” and filled ’three bags. Then they sailed straight to earth '■gain, landing this time , in a low swampy place not far frotm the plum tree where .Biddy Bantam was roosting. Pretty soon they saw a sharp nose poke itself out frmm the. shadows followed .by a reddish brown body and a lonig bushy tail. It was Fleet Fox and he made straight for the plum tree* Next thtere was a scurrying and a soft little brown bast, with two long ears lopped past, heading straight for the sass-natch garden. “Cutie Cottontail!” whisperejd Nancy. “His ma sent him because he’s so tiny he can squeeze through the MONEY FOR COTTON READY ON SAPIRO MARKET PLAN The War Finance Corporation has lined up squarely behind the first big cotton growers association organ ized under the Sapiro plan of co operative marketing with an advance of $5,000,000 and has innoumced it self ready to finance other similar or ganizations. This is taken by cotton men to be of tremendous importance to Georgia growers, the organisation of the planters of this state under the Sapiro plan now being on. Congress man Chas. R. Grisp, of Americus, fur nishes the Times-Recorder from ■Washington a statement on the policy of the War Finance corporation rela tive to cotton loans issued by Eugene Meyer, Jr., its managing director. Accompanying the statement xvas a letter of Congressman Crisp from A. W. McLean, a director of the War Finance* corporation, which said: “My dear Congressman: I en close press statement, showing re cent plan adopted by the War Fi nance Corporation in respect to the exportation of cotton. We are do ing our very best to help out this sit uation. The demand is so slack in Europe that the directors of the cor poration thought best to offer this the capital make Senator Jones one of their favorites. And this could continue forever, but space is valuable. Sufficeth to say that Major Devereaux F. McClachey, secretary of the senate, has a busy time keeping up with his senatorial children.

It was Chris Crow, the old thing! snooping after Cutie. Os course Cutie should have been at home in ben, but then how did he know thß Farmer Smith hadn’t planted his let tuce on purpose for him to eat it? It was certain, anyway, that Chris knew that Cutie wasn’t intended to be a dinner for him, and he’s no more business to be snooping after him than Fleet Fox had to be snoop ing after Biddy Bantam. Well, Fleet arrived at the plum tree, just as Cutie scurried past. “M, m!” exclaimed Fleet, “I see where I get two meals instead of one.” By standing on his hind legs, he could just touch Biddy’s tail. “Quick!” said Sprinkle-Blow to the Twins, “open all the bags and let out the dense fog.” (To Be Continued.) plan, by which cotton can be held over for future export, so that the actual export movement can take place as fast as foreign markets will absorb it.’ The statement by Managing Di rector Meyer follows in full: The advance of $5,000,000 to the Staple Cotton Cooperative Associa tion, bf Memphis, approved recently by thd War Finance 'Corporation, marks the adoption of a new policy by the Directors of the Corporation. The Corporation, which was directed by the congress to resume operations for the purpose of assisting in finan cing the exportation of domestic pro ducts by making advances to Ameri can exporters and American bankers, has steadily broadened its policy in order to meet the present emergen cy which exists in the marketing of agricultural and other commodities. At first, advances were made to ex porters only on cotton actually ex ported under definite contracts of sale, but later, following conferences with cotton exporters and bankers in Washington, New Orleans and New York, the corporation announces its readiness to consider applications in connection with the exportation of cotton on any one of the three following plans: 1. For prompt shipment against deferred payments. . For future shipments within a reasonable time against either prompt or deferred payments, after arrival in foreign countries where goods Were under definite for sale; or 3. For prompt shipment to ware houses in foreign distributing points to be held there on account of the American exporters and bankers for marketing out of warehouses. The advance to lite Staple Cotton Cooperative Association carries these plans a step farther. By its terms, the association agrees that, out of the 1(10,000 bales of long staple cot ton pledged as security, it will export within one year a quantity Sufficient to repay the full amount of the loan out of the proceeds of export sales— the cotton to be held in American warehouses until the time is favor able for export. The advance re presents approximately one-half of the present market value of the cot ton and will run for a maximum of one year, but may be repaid sooner AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER. as the cotton is exported and sold. The Staple Cotton Cooperative as sociation comprises within its mem bership many of the leading cotton planters in the Delta District of the Mississippi. In fact, the owners and producers of 220,000 bales of long staple cotton, out of a total average yield of approximately 600,000 bales, have agreed to sell their cotton through this organization. The action of the corporation will enable the association to market its cotton in an orderly way during the current cotton year without unduly forcing sales. ’ _ If a similar plan could be carried out in connection with other types of cotton, it would be helpful in re lieving the situation. Properly financ ed, it would insure the orderly mar keting of tffe crop and make it un necessary for the producers to dump on the market unduly large quantities of distressed cotton within a short period. But it would do more. It would help the market so that the consumers of cotton would perhaps feel justified in replenishing their stocks, which, in most cases, are much j lower than usual at this season of, the year. .The War Finance Corporation i stands ready to assist other organi zations, as well as cotton exporters and banking institutions, in the same way that it has assisted the Staple Cotton Cooperative Association, pro vided the advances can be made upon a sound business basis and provided also that the corporation may be definitely assured that the advances will be repaid from the proceeds of export sales within a year. 50 Firemen Overcome In Cheese Plant Fire NEW YORK, July 18.—Fifty fire men were overcome today in fight ing a million-dollar fire in the build ing of the Pheonix Chees company, in Greenwich Street, on the west side of lower Manhattan.

Wall street now inclines to the be lief that business revival, when it starts, will beg;n with heavy buying of equipment and supplies by the rail roads. Herbert Hoover points out that "the railroads normally consume 20 per cent of all materials and em ploy, directly or indirectly, 20 per cent of all labor in the United States.” That is a potential buying power big enough to pujl the whole coun try out of depression. Hence Wall street considers it very important that the railroads lately are making a much better fi nancial showing. Idle freight cars have been reduced ,to 373,791, says latest reports of | American Railway Association. ‘ Three months ago there were 507,- i 274 idle cars. i In the week ended June 25, latest reported, number of cars loaded with revenue-producing freight on all American* railroads was 775,061, against 845,694 cars same week 1919. Many railroad repair shops are being re-opened. Weathervanes. “Last week was one of the most satisfactory weeks in meat trade for two years, despite the hot weather,” says Armour & Co. This shows better public confidence in business situation. Butchers for several months have been doing bad busi ness, reflecting consumers’ economy. June building activity was 6 per cent less than May, in money fig ; ures, say F. W. Dodge Co. reports. Total tonnage Jof American ex ports in May was 23 per cent greater than in May 1913, with prices averag ing 32 per cent higher. Auto business is ten per cent more prosperous than any other industry, claims Alfred Reeves, president, Na tional Autumobile Chamber of Com merce. Cotton production promises to be smallest in quarter century. Textile manufacturers are running average of 60 to 70 per cent capacity, says Bradstreet’s. Postoffice receipts at 50 leading postofl'ices in June were nearly twice as big as in June, 1913. Corn exports last week 200 times as big as same week in 1919, and more than 10 times as big as same week 1920. Wholesale prices in June averaged an advance of about 1 per cent, says Bradstreet’s, which keeps tab on prices of 96 leading commodities. But Dun’s, which keeps track of prices of 327 articles, says wholesale prices dropped average of nearly 4 per cent.
