Cotton picking time is near There is much s peculat : cn over the labor proolem among the fann ers as to securing a sufficiency of labor t 6 pick .ho cotton crop. The crop this year :s far in excess of that last year and labo- is extremely short. Many of the negroes have gone to other sections of the cour ' try and it is said that white labor is scarce. However, it is true that the farmer with the help of the mem bers of his family has made the crop and now it is up to htem to gather it. It can be done and with much less expen.A? than by hired labor. The negro is a liability rather than an asset to the farmer. In days gonei by when the negro had to be fed and carried for the entire year, the farmer made little from his farm, but now with the negro gone, what has been made has come from the labor of the white families. It is an improved condition and one which will prove profitable to the average farmer. The farmer who has lived at home and carried on his farm operations without hired labor has something to show for his year’s work. The de parture of the negro was a blessing for the agricultural interests of the .south. ,The farmer who depended upon the negro never gained thdre iy. The farmer who remained at home and earned his livnig and did his own wofk is the man who is in dependent now and will remain so. A better day is here for us all and the era of prosperity is dawning .upon us. TPATRIOTISM IN IHE ROUCH. General Calles, president-elect of Mexico, who will assume the reins of government in December, before sailing for Europe gave to New York something of a new vision of the Norih American republic, bringing home irather pointedly the difference brtween iwdfticians and patriots. Seejmrily the -fundamental differ ence between the rebel and the pa triot is the difference between suc cess or failure if' we may rely on world judgment from time immemo rial, running the gamut from Le tter and Trotsky through our own George Washington and back into the ages. Colles is essentially a pa triot—for Mexico. He likes the .United States an<J appreciates its marvelous accomplishments, but he is for Mexico, and he sounded his Veyndte when he stated as his con ■ victien that “the Indian must not be exploited.'' The Indian ir. Mexico —and he is -there by the •hundred thousand— wofes ‘for ten cents a day. Time was when he worked for three cents a day. Calles, who has much of Indian blood in his vains, worked for three cents a day. He never wore a pair of shoes until he was sixteen years of age. He has passed through the mill Because ijf their sim plicity, and superior points of mechanical construction, Dedco- Lig+it Water systems give more years of de pendable pumping ser vice at lower cost than can be obtained in any other way.

The net of j his giving—for Calles has lived a red blooded life—is hie election as the head of his nation—and the net for the people will probably be an administration solely for Mexico. Calles plainly means that he will not permit the Mexicans to work for ten cents a day to fill the coffers of Wall Street. If he were an Ameri can patriot and not a Mexican pa triot, instead of saying the Mexican shall not work from sunrise to sun down and receive only ten cents for his labor, he would probably ay the American working man shall not re ceive fourteen dollars a day ar.J loaf half of his time.
