THE FUTURE OF COTTON.
The report sent out from the Agri
cultural Department at Washington in
dicates a reduction of about 16 per cent,
in the cotton acreage this year, as com
pared with that of last year. This is
not aH large a reduction as it should
have been, but it is at least encourag
ing, since it means an increased acre
age planted in grain.
The reduction in the amount of com
mercial fertilizers used is at least dll per
cent. This, with the reduced acreage,
ought to mean a decrease in the cotton
crop of nt least 30 per cent. Last year
was an exceptional year for cotton, and
it is by no means certain that the crop
will be as good as it was in 1914.
Taking all the facts into account, it
is safe to guess that the crop this year
will not yield more than 12,000,000 bales.
If it were not for the surplu- of last
year's crop carried over, and if there
should bo u termination of the Eu
ropean war before the present crop
is picked, this estimate would give us a
bullish market now and a good price
next fall.
Hut the old cotton left over runs into
many thousands of bales, and there is
not the shadow of a promise of an early
peace. Germany shows no signs of
weakening, the entrance of Italy into
the war haH produced no appreciable
effect as yet, and the expectation that
England would put on a more vigorous
campaign by midsummer has not been
realized. Thu hope, therefore, that,
the war would perhaps reach its ter
mination by the end of the present
year is no longer well founded. Evi
dently the wur will go on until utter
defeat or atarvutiun shall bring it to a
close; and no man living knows when
either of these things will happen.
Therefore, the sensible tiling for the
people of i he South to do is to adjust
themselves to conditions which have
been brought about by this great strug
gle, and which are not likely to grow
better at an early day. It is not likely
that cotton will bring more than 10
cents a pound this fall, if so much, and
accounts should be made and other
plans arranged to meet this probability.
And it is not too early even now to be
gin to arrange for larger grain crops
another year. The man who plans his
affairs for the futury upon the assump
tion that the war will not end in live
yours will be on safe ground. We do
not believe the war can lust so long,
but its continuance is a problem of
-many unknown quantities.
The State Press Convention will meet
next week at Eastman, with u side trip

haps to other points in Florida. The

RAYMOND.
The Fourth of July celebration held
at Kaymond Saturday was a success
in every sense of the term. In spite
of the threatening condition of the
weather several hundred pleasure-
seekinr residents of the community
were present. There were also visitors
from all over the State, Newnan and
Atlanta sending large delegations to
take part in the festivities. The day
started off' with a ball game between
teams from Raymond and Palmetto.
This was a hair-raiser, real big league
ball being played throughout. Ray
mond tlnally came out on top bv the
score of 8 to 6. There was also a
game between the same teams in the
afternoon, and Raymond was again the
victor by the score of 9 to 5. Much of
the success of the home team was due
to the masterly pitching of McDonald.
He is a regular "iron man." After
winning the morning game in tine style
he was called on again in the after
noon game when the local boys were
getting in a bad hole, and pulled his
team-mates out on top, always having
the Palmetto players at his mercy.
Credit is also due Jesse McDonald for
the way he managed the games. The
barbecue itself was a winner, every
body eating to their heart's content,
and feeling that if they had such
sumptuous meals every day they would
be unable to turn their thoughts any
way except to this part of the day's
work. Messrs. Emmett and Edwin
Bailey were the "artists" who pre
pared the feast, and they did it well.
Various subjects, instructive and
patriotic, all interesting, were dis
cussed by several capable speakers,
among whom were Messrs. Geo. D.
Goddard, of the State Department of
Education, Prof. ,1. E. Pendergrast,
Superintendent of County Public
Schools, Col. R. F. Shedden, Hon.
Chas. L. Davis, of Atlanta, and Col.
Catchings Thtrrel. The day was full
of enjoyment for both old and young,
and all departed saying they never had
such a good time in their lives. Let's
have more such days, and instill in all
of us the spirit of good fellowship.

NOT ENOUGH CHILDREN
ever receive the proper balance of food
to sufficiently nourish both body and
brain during the growing period when
nature's demands are greater than in
mature life. This is shown in so many
pale faces, lean bodies, frequent colds,
and lack of ambition.
For all such children we say with
unmistakable earnestness; They need
Scott’s Emulsion, and need it now. It
possesses in concentrated form the very
food elements to enrich their blood. It
changes weakness to strength; it makes
them sturdy and strong. No alcohol.

There is more catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was supposed to be incur
able. For a great many years doctors pronounced
it a local disease and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure with local treat
ment. pronounced it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and there
fore requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney dt
Co.. Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure
on the market. It is taken internally. It acts di
