The world needs nil the cotton that the cotton-producing countries have on hand from last year's crop, and all that they will produce in 1915. Owing to conditions resulting from the war in Europe, various channels through which cotton moves under nor mal conditions are temporarily ob structed. Countries which ordinarily consume a considerable part of the cotton which the Southern section of the United States produces would now be consuming far more of the staple than they normally require if it were possible for them to secure it. But Great Britain has succeeded, by arbitrary in terference with the righte of neutrals, in preventing the shipment of Ameri can cotton to Germany, Austria, Nor way, Sweden, Holland end Denmark. No other commodity can take the place of cotton for a multi plicity of uses which war rather in creases than diminishes, and the only reason the South has a considerable surplus of the 19U crop in her ware houses is that trade channels have been for the time being closed by war. The moment the war ends, there will be a ready market for every bale of cotton the South mav happen to hnve, whether it be of 1915 or 1916 produc tion. The world’s population needs just as many clotheB as it ever needed. It requires even more. Furthermore, the war has cost the countries engag ing in it billions of dollars—a stagger ing burden which steadily grows, and under which the people will be stagger ing for years— a burdpn which will necessitate the most rigid economy by the people for generations to come. Cotton cloth is the cheapest, of all cloths. Some of the finest, daintiest fabrics are woven from it, and so are the heavy canvases, ducks and burlaps used for a multiplicity of purposes Only cotton can fill the wor'd’s need of a cheap staple to produce cheap fabrics. The world is cotton hungry now. It would get it if it could. It will take it when it can get it, and will take it all Can we hold it? Wo must hold it— hold all that cannot be sold at, a living price through the channels that have not been closed by the obstructing hand of war. A Cough Remedy That Relieves.
