Manufacturers Record. “Como, therefore, and I will advertise theo”-—Numbers, xxlv: 14, "And I though to ndvortiso theo.”— Ruth ivi 4. From the earliest of Biblical days the value of advertising has boon more and moro clearly soon. In one way or another, through all the ngos, men have realised that without publicity or adver tises their olTorts would bo in vain. The "mighty pomp and circumstance of war,'’ the triumphal procession of tho old Romans, tho varied means adopted to sond information throughout all em pires In olden days, down to the tromon- doue advertising campaign of tho Brit ish Government in stirring a nation’s pa triotism and raising an army of 5,000,000 volunteers, and similar advertising by tho American Government to soli Liberty Bonds, wore nil moroly a broad and over growing realisation of tho power of ad- vorbdng. Without advertising England could not havo raised its mighty volunteer army; without advertising t.ho United States oould not have found 20,000,000 bond buyers. The same powor of advertising could now "soil” prosperity to tho whole coun try. There is enough to write about and talk about in advertising to stir the na tion to a realisation of our country’s limitless resources and illimitable dovol- opment potentialities. Tho powor of nll-porvading, all-com- polling advertising work, Iitorally alive with tho Are of truth and enthusiasm, would quicken ovory heart-beat, would thrill ovory American, would stimulate tho young to doods of ue.hlovomont in tho business world to match tho achieve ments nnd the glory of tho battlefield, and woald stir afresh tho blood of tho old. Tho flag of Amorioo’s patriotism unfurled in advertising, tho bugle call to work, tho drum boats, “Charge,” would load uh on to c.omrnorcial power lutf glory nnd prosperity us worthy of praise ns over wore the triumphs of tho iMttiaflold. Then down with tho pessimism of faint-hearted enmp followers, and up with the Hug of optimism I Omvnrd with “sound tho charge” lb rough ovory well-tested and proven ad vertising method, anil wo would soon wo a mighty army of a nation of 105,- 000,000 people putting to rout ovory rmnt honrt, every preacher of pessimism in bank, in of flea and in factory! Some say, “Wo canlttk afford to ad vertise. ' Tho answer is, “You cannot afford not to ndvortiao.’’ "Why advert!so when tlioro is no bus mens to bo hndf ” say others. Because tho only way to eroato business is by advertising. "Why ndvortiso when wo have no money to loan4” say smno bankers; tho answer is: “No class over SMALLEST COTTON CROP IN 25 YEARS. WnBliington, July 1.—Cotton produc tion this year promises to be tho smallest In the last quarter of a century. Today s forecast by the Department of Agricul ture places it at 8,4311,000 bales, or near ly 5,000,000 bales smaller than last year’s crop, and nearly 8,000,000 bales below the record crop of 1914. yeur's acreage is 28.4 per cent, cniuller than last your’s. The nerengo this year is the smallest slneo 1000, and never before, according to tho Department of Agriculture, has there been so groat a chnugo from one year to another in acrenge as there has been from last year to this year. Tho condition bt tho growing crop has not in twenty years been so low on June 25 as it was this year. All sections of the cot ton bolt has boon affected. It is due, ac cording to. Govornmcnt* experts, to an adversely wet spring and to tho pres- oneo of the boll weevil in lnrgo numbers. Owing to the unfavorable conditions of April and May and to other discour aging factors—shortage of fertilizer and unsatisfactory price—abandonment of cotton ncrenge hue boon greater than usual west of the Mississippi rivor, rang ing from 5 per cent, in North Carolina and Mississippi to ns high as 10^ per cont. in Georgia. West of the MisbIs slppl abandonment has been slight. Tho amount of commercial fertilizer used per acre on cotton this year is about 66 por cont. of the avorago amount used annually in the past four yonre. Special returns to tho department in- ilicnto only about 55 por cent, as much as last yenr in South Carolina, 42 per cont. in Mississippi and Tonnossee, 15 por cent, in Louisinna and Arkansas, 49 por cent, in Georgia nnd 33 por cont, in Florida. Tims, all indications point to a reduc tion in absolute quantity of fertilizer purehasod much greater than the un precedented reduction in acreage of cot ton, and this is confirmed by tho figures quoted showing lossened use por acre. This lack is reflected in tho relatively low condition of cotton, which is aim- ,-t ten points below the average condition at this date. The quality is generally re ported lower than in previous yeurs. A cotton crop of 8,433,000 equivalent 500-pound bales this year is forecast by tho Dopartmont of Agricultuer, basing its estimate on the area under cultiva tion June 25, which was 26,519,000 acres, nnd tho condition of tho crop on that date, which was 69.2 per cont of a nor mal. Production Inst yenr was 18,305,754 equivalent 500-pound bales; the revised area in cultivation a year ago was 37,- 043, 000 acres, nnd tho condition of tho crop June 25 last year 70.7 per cent, of a norninl. The preliminary ostiniute of acrenge and tho condition on dune 25 by States follow; Acrenge, 27,000,000; condition, 70; North Carolina, 1,180,000 and 65; South Carolina, 2,190,000 and 05; Geor- gin, 8,000,000 and 64; Florida, 82,000 and 70; Alabama, 2,029,000 nnd 59; Missis sippi. 2,825,000 and. 67; Louisiana, 1,011,000 nnd 64; Texas, 9,199,000 amt. 72; Arkansas, 2,138,000 and 78; Ten nessee, 609,000 and 74; Missouri, 93,000 and 80; Oklahoma, 1,853,000 and 75; California, 181,000 and 77; Arizona, 80,000 and 88; Now Mexico, 15,000 and 87.

Bivins in Butler Herald, Much has been said ami written about the beauties''of tho day. From time ini-' memorial they have been immortalized ill song and story. From lofty mountain poults gifted poets and brilliant writers, divinely inspired, with flaming pen have portrayed tho sublimity of the dawn, and the regal splendor of the rising sun. With match loss eloquence they have pic tured tho entrancing aunset, in nil its radiance. Yet, in comparison, few linos iinvc boon dedicated to the majestic Night, serene and beautiful. Soon after the day-god has vanished beyond tho western slope in a blaze of glory tho evening shades appear, and a busy world sinks down on its couch with a sigh for tho blessing of rest. Vorily, tho guardian angels seem to turn low tho lights of heaven, close the blinds, and gontly draw over a weary world tho soft covering of Night for the respite of soul and body; and sleep, gentle sleep, kisBos down our eyelids in poaceful slumber. Ob, Night, thou beautiful and enchant ing queen with starry crown, tho mellow moonbeams lighting thy wayl . How welcome thou art to a tired’ world I Though arrayod in sombre robes, thy sparkling jewels are a marvel of beauty that surpassoth all understanding; ami still, thou art a tranquil messenger, sym bolizing lovo and peace ami rest. \ In the golden silence of thy gracious presence wo pay homage to thee. Thou contest when tho whippoorwill and the nightingale are singing; when the dewdrops of heaven are kissing the lily and the roso. Thy voice is the sweet eadenco of soothing winds, charming the lovers ’mid palms and ferns. Thy breath is the gentle zephyr, fresh with health and tho fragrance of flowers; and thy soft touch quiets and soothes many an aching heart. The fairies and dream land all are thine, ami the green eratli is tlie carpet over which thou dost noise lessly guile, lulling the world to rest.

"Latin is a living force in daily life, and nR other studies are in overwhelm ing dobt to it,” gayB Prof. F. S. Duun, bead of tho department of Latin in the University of Oregon, in a bulletin which be lias written for the Lntiu teachers in the high schools and colleges of Oregon, “Tho teacher,” ho snys, “must read English from out tho Latin and Latin from out the English; must see geom etry, biology nnd physics in Caesar; must conjure legal phrases and dootore prescriptions from Cicero’s orations; must flash tho ‘Idyls of the King’ and ’Paradise Lost’ and ‘The Faery Queen’ across tiie pages of Virgil; must brand every paragraph with the Romance lan guages nnd Lntin-Americn and the Phil ippines; must see Rome in tho dock dial In the 10-cent piece, in a decimal frac tion, in the ulmnnuc, in the days of the week, in tho Sunday liturgy, in Oregon’s seal, In tho omnibus bill, in the ultima tum of Turkoy, iu an aeronaut or a sub marine ; in Moutana or in Arizona; in Cincinnati or in Olympia; iu Lucy or in Uos; in patrimony or matrimouy, It mat tecs not which, for it is all Latin any way, and everywhere you turn.” MEMORIAL DAY. Now York Morning Telegraph. Tills is Memorial Day. It is the day set apart for honoring our soldier doad- tho day sacred to those who made the supreme sacrifice on battlefield and in camp. It will be celebrated in many lands—in France almost as a national in stitution, as with us; in England, where some of our heroeB lie buried; In Cuba, in the Philippines, and in Porto Rico. Memorial Day, first introduced half a century ago ns ‘ ‘ Decoration Day, ’ ’ has a more compelling appeal to the hearts of the people today than it ever had before. Every State in the Union has its gold- star roil; every county, perhaps,, its ser vice flag sanctified by the blood of a patriot. And if there is any one lesson that this day teaches more impressively than an other it is the lesson of “preparedness.” The death roll would not have been so large if we had profited by wliat we saw going on undor our eyes in Europe. An other lesson, however, is the necessity of avoiding war when possible—a. consum mation that can be reached only -by in ternational agreement. It is easy for a President or for a bumble and obscure citizen to say: “It nniBt nqt be again;” but words nre north nothing, unless backed by deeds. ADMINISTRATOlV’8 SALE.

This July 6, 1921. J. A. R. CAMP, Ordinary. W. SUPERVISION OF “MOTOR CAR MORALS" URGED. Drastic supervision of (( motor car' morals” and the formulation by teach ers , and parents’ associations find wo men’s dubB of rules governing conduct of girls on automobile parties were the most striking features of a proposed re form movement launched in Cincinnati, Ohio, rocently by Dr. Wilbui\ F. Crafts, superintendent of the national reform bureau, who delivered an address on ‘National Perils and Hopos.” That restriction of some sort is needod in, the matter of automobile parties was de- dared by Dr. Crafts, who said that a code of honor and good form for girls who go riding with their male friends should be drafted and strictly adhered, to. He said that the question had assumed proportions that made it of vital impor tance to the welfare of the race, and de clared that the conduct on night auto mobile parties often was shameless. “And the biggest menace of the evil is that it is universal,’’ he said. “No mother, with tho welfare of her daughter at heart, would sanction a visit to tho private apartment of a male acquaint ance, and yet that ia essentially what takes plaeO every time that a girl goes out on an automobile party. “A motor car is nothing more or less than an apartment on wheels.

As for Elodie—wliat did a kiss or two matter? If one paid all- that atten tion to a kiss one’s life would ho a com plicated drama of a hundred threads. A kiss is nothing’—so ran one of her obiter dicta—‘unless you felt it in your toes. Then look out. ’ A kiss must mean either very much or very little. There are maidens to whom it signifies a life’s consecration. There nre men whose blood it fires with burning passiop. There are couples of different sox who jointly consider their first kiss a matter of supreme impor tance, and, the temporary rapture over, at once begin to discuss the possibilities of parental approbation and the ways and means of matrimony. A kiss may be tho very devil of a thing, leading to two or three dozen honorably born grandchil dren, or to suicide, or to celibate addic tion, to cats, or to the fate of Abelajd, or to the Fall of Troy. Volumes could bo written on it.” the same chance that she would in visit ing her oseort’s private apartment un- chaperoned, nnd her mother is as open to censure for allowing one ns the other. “There are proper conditions under which automobile rides may be taken, and it is the duty of those with tire moral welfare of our nation at heart to point out these conditions and demand that they bo observed. “Cigarette smoking for women and participation in auto nnd booze pnrties are things that must go."' "Why does a woman’s hat cost so much more Gian a man ’at Surely, tho (trimming can’t account for more than a fraction of tho difference. ’ ’ "Certainly not, but you must remem ber that it costa more to sell a liat to a woman, A man seldom takes up more than two minutes of the salesman’s time, while n woman will keep the entire sales istair busy for half a day.” The marriage had commenced as a pure love match, but now, after a few years’ experience, it had developed into an etoranl wrangle. There are some married couples who do nothing but argue and fight and con tradict each other over trifles, and of such a type were Mr. and Mrs. Fuss. At dinner one evening, when tho soup came on, they started an argument about the price of the sitting-room carpet, or it might have been the gravel for the front garden. As the fish were served the argument w*as getting hotter, tho meat course saw it a little warmer still, until, when the dessert arrived, both husband and wife could scarcely cat for indignation. Then the wife interrupted herself to say to her husband, in a plaintive voice: I don’t know whatever would hap pen, Paul, if you ever agreed with me on any topic.” Mr. Fuss looked at his better half, and sighed. “Fd be wrong,”, ho said—“I’d be wrong 1 ” o Pull for Newnan. .Letters of Administration.

I mean the part which says, ‘And tliy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the stranger within thy gateB. ’ The guest, you notice, comes after the maidservant. ’ ’ He waited hopefully for the reply which should open up further conversa tion between them.
