It was a tribute to the fact that the maniyactur er who builds up a good name through advertising is going to protect it even to the curtailment of his own profits.

In the morning he started out to look for the dog and found him under a bush by the side of the road, where ho had crawled In out of the cold. He c urried him home and made a tree bed for him and gave him a good break fast. "You shall never want again as long as you live," he said to the dog. patting his head. “I believe It Is more cruel to turn out an old nnlmal than a per son I have Indeed been a wicked man." When the little boy saw the dog he clapped his hands nnd danced for Jov. "Oh!

The South Can Save One Hundred Million Dollars Annually by Cutting Out Waste and Damage to the Cotton Crop -r -- ■■ This is a Good Year to Save It---Store Cotton and Protect it From Damage. Cables report that cotton Is worth 1£ cents in Bremen while commanding only 6X2 cents in the South. It such Is the case there Is need of additional supply In Germany, and, under the decision f Great Britain to permit ship ments of cotton to hostile coun tries thv only ohstacle to resump tion of a healthy export movement Is removed. It is estimated that Ihe two nations mentioned will buy about half their normal sup ply. That should account for about 1,500,000 bales of the crop. Ex porters appear to have been only awaiting the decision of Great Britain for yesterday alone more than 41.000 bales were exported compared with only 18,000 .the pre vious day. Resumption of operations by the cotton exchanges will prove help ful by permitting the entrance Into the situation of the speculative element, thereby distributing the weight of the crop over a larger Better to Sett Cotton and Take Losses, Says Big Chicago Financier Mr. E. 0. Boisot, Vice President of First Trust and Savings Bank, in Augusta, Talks of Situation---Few People Calculate Cost of Carrying Charges on Cotton---Sell Crop and Then Prepare to Diversify. "The people of the South shoudld sell their cotton, take the losses and prepare to diversify.” said Mr. E. Q. Boisot, vice president of the First Trust * Ravings Bank of Chicago, who spent Thursday and Friday in Augusta looking into the cotton situation. While here Mr Boisot and wife were at the Genesta. They left for Charleston at 3:40 o'clock Friday afternoon. "It may seem hard," Mr. Boisot continued, "and It Is hard to sell cotton nt a low price, but few people calculate the cost of carrying It, and we do not know when tt will again bring from 10 to 12 cents. The loss In weight, the Interest, the Insurance and the storage all are big factors In holding cotton.” "But when it costs ten cents,—or nine cents at least.—to raise tt how do you expect people to sell tt at front six to seven cents and live - ’" ventured a reporter. "That seems hard, of course, but It would be better to take the loss, plant very conservatively of cotton next year and begin to raise oats, wheat, corn and live stock,” said the Chicago financier, “than to try to hold an enormous quantity of cotton for an indefinite period. Why, ts the price was artificially carried to nine cents per pound the average farmer would not sell hts cotton even then. He would hold It for ten cents or bette#. "I am firmly convinced that the present low price of cotton will be a great boon to the south because it will teach the people that they must stop raising all cotton. There Is no reason why corn, meat oats, flour nnd other articles should he shipped here from the west when you are blessed with the greatest climate and as fertile soil as ever the sun shone upon lam Interested In the south, am a frequent visitor down here, particularly In this section of the south, and the Institution with which I am connected does business with people right here In Au gusta. and I give It as my firm conviction that It Is far better for the farmers to sell their cotton at seven cents than to hold It to pile up next year’s crop and then have an enormous surplus. "The uncertainty as to how long the war will last and the fact that It may be much more than a year before Europe can again begin to take cotton in ltirse quantities are among the reasons why tt Is an unsound business principle to hold tho bulk of the south's cotton crop." Mr. and Mrs Boisot took luncheon with Mr. Jacob Phlnlzy at Circular Court Friday. Mr. Boisot declared. Just before leaving Augusta, thak Mr. Fhlnlxy had one of the finest farms he had ever had the pleas ure of visiting.
