Cotton Prospects.
St. Louis Republic.
I is only natural that the high
prices that cotton has command
ed during the last year should re
sult in a general increase in the
acreage. The New York Journal
of Commerce has collected statis
tics from which it is estimated
tha t there has been an average in
crease of 5 per cent over that of
last year.
' All'the figures tabulated by the
paper were gathered between May
20th and May 28th ^ the greater
part between May 25 and 28th.
All told, it is estimated that 25,-
500,000 acres have been planted
in cotton, t Last year’s yield was
9,489,559 bales, so that if the usu
al crop were raised to the acre the
yield would be near 10,000,000
bales.
However, cold weather has hurt
some districts. In some sections
of the South boll weevil is report
ed. Still, this is the season of the
year when reports are often dis
couraging which are usually
.folowed by conditions that com
pletely upset all the forecasts.
Within the past week thera has
been a noticeable change for the
better in agricultural conditions
throughout the country. The Cold
and damp weather has been suc
ceeded in the South as well as in
the North by clear skies. The
farmers have been able to get in
to the fields. Kansas, which

seems to be one of the few sec
tions that have been without rain,
has had a rainfall that makes the
outlook bright.
There is a tendency on the part
of every agricultural; community
when the least discouragement
exists to overestimate thO damage.
This is a phase of human nature
which perhaps has its influence on
the marketl Just as certain agen
cies in the' South, run for the ben
efit of investors across the water,
have a tendency to estimate a big
prop, thus moking the prices low
er, so it is offset by the agricul
tural tendency to, boost prices, r
Between these two antagonistic
aims lies the middle rood of calm
judgment, which in the present
instance seems to indicate that
the cotton crop of 1901 will not
be behind that of former years.

The experience which a certain
young lady had in London on the
day of Queen Victoria’s funeral will
serve as an excellent warning for
those women who are inclined to al
low their humanitarian impulses to
get the better of them. t This sym
pathetic lady relieved a woman who
appeared to be in a fainting state of
her baby and had it left upon her
hands by the disappearance of the
mother. After waiting in vain for
the mother to return,the.embarrass
ed young woman tqld her story to
a policeman on the outskirts of the
crowd. “I have heard that story
before,” he grinned in a knowing
way and refused to believe her. A
visit to the police station brought
the same result—an utter, disbelief
of the unfortunate yoimg woman’s
story. The workhouse was tried,
but with no better fortune. It was
six weeks before the shopgirl was
able to get rid of the child which
had come to her in so strange a
way, and it entailed the very great
est trouble on her friends before
they could induce, the parochial au
thorities, to accept the true version
of the case!—Argonaut.

The management of the Southern
Inter-State Fair, to be held in Atlanta
this fall, has done a very wise thing
in again placing the Department of
Woman’s Work in charge of the Geor
gia Federation of Women’s Clubs. Tha;
organization has managed the depart
ment for the past two years with signal
success.
Mrs. J. Lindsay Johnson, as president
of the State Federation, has been
untiring in her efforts to stimu
late interest among the women of
Georgia, and results have proven the
efficiency of her work; for never
in the history of fairs in Georgia, has
the Department of Woman’s Work
Bh'own up to such advantage as in the
last two Fairs at Atlanta, and it is safe
to say that the exhibits this fall will
surpass all former attempts. The pre
