Cotton baa been fournl in China fire houaand years old just M good m nhen it wag first grown. CutfSn mills have kej t cotton on band for years without any deterioration. When speculation sent cotton to seventeen cents last year cotton came from bid ing that farmers had been storing for twenty years. It was as good as ever Cotton if stored in a good place will be as good ten year hence as to day. It is about the only crop that suffers no injury by holding for better prices. Of course it greatly depreciates in value if exposed to the weatbei or poorly pro' tected. Ho farmer ought to hold a bale of cotton that he does not protect, , The lowest prioe at which a North Carolina farmer, under the best oondi bons, can grow a pound of cotton is seven cents at present prices of labor and supplies. That allows nothing at all for the rent of the land. It can be grown at seven cents only under the most favorable conditions and much cotton grown in the South has cost more than seven cents. Those who talk about raising cotton for five cents refer to those farmers who hire no labor, their own children doing the work. -Such calculations have no value, for the labor costs 'must be in cluded in any calculation of cost of producing cotton. . It is a serious situation which con fronts the farmer of the South, but it is plain that there is no sense in selling cotton at less than the cost of produc tion, when it will not deteriorate if held. The receipts this month have fallen off. There are said to be more contracts out for heavy deliveries this month and speculators are struggling to get cotton. If that is true there is all the more reason for holding cotton. If not true, there is still no good reason why farmers should sell their cotton at present prices. J. B, Coffield, a leading farmer and legislator from Martin county, said yesterday: "I will either get less or more for the portion of the crop I now have on hand." He voiced the senti ment of the wisest cotton growers in the South. Every bale of cotton that a farmer puts on the market now helps those who are tying to keep down the price. If farmers are wise they will stand together, hold their cotton until they can sell it at a profit. They can surely get a profit later on if there is a large reduction in acreage this year. Doctoral That are a Disgrace to That Noble Profession. Marahvllle Home. Referring to the notice of the life and noble work of Dr. J. A. McRae, which appeared in this paper last week, the News and Observer says: "In this age of mad rushing after wealth and in an era when' the get-rich -quick seems to be motto of so many people, what a refreshing thing it is to read of one who 'didn't attach tho commercial idea' to his great calling I The good doctor who loves to heal men and who 'never refuses to go to see a patient be- I cause the poverty of that patient makes the pay uncertain' is worthy of all that Ian MacLaren wrote of the great hearted physician whose character is the greatest in modern literature." If this may be said of good doctors of this kind what must we say when we turn to the other extreme ? How aboat the financial doctors who will let an in nocent child or woman lie and die for want of medical attention because they are not able to pay the bills, or because a worthless hueband will not yty them."

I PC SI PINO OIL 2,000 HIl LI Line From Indian Territory to New York Under Mississippi Hlver. Like the trail of a serpent sluggish stream of oil will, iff the near future, be pulsing half way across the conti nent. Starling from Red Fork, Indian Ter ritory, it will persue across Kansas to Kansas City, across Missouri, under the Mississippi river and across Illinois to Whiting, near Chicago; across Indiana to CyneT, Ohio, where it will receive a fresh impulse from the largest oil pumping station in the world; across Ohio and the northwestern corner of Pennsylvania to Olean, N. Y., the junction point of the different pipe lines, and thence across New York and northern New Jersey to the refineries of the Standard Oil Company at Bay onne, N. J., and Newtown Creek, New York city, reaching the latter by a line laid under the Hudson river, Central Park and the East river. One of the few sections of the pipe line which remains to be completed is that between Kansas City and Whiting, a line of pipe having already been laid from Red Fork to Kansas City. Twenty thousand barrels, the amount required to fill it, has been pumped into the latter section from the storage tanks at Kansas City. There is a man to watch every foot of all these pipe lines. Little of the oil escapes after it has (lowed into the pipes. In order that the now of oil may not be decreased by the collection of parafin on the inside of the pipes, scarper is sent through them every two weeks. The scraper is a ftem about 2 feet long, having at its front end diaphragm made of wings, which can fold on each other, and thus enable it to pass an obstruction it cannot remove. Letter from Oklahoma. Editor Times : As I have been tak ing your paper for a year I thought I would write you a few lines for the psper if you will be so kind as to pub lish it. My home is in Kingfisher county, three miles south of Omega. I have a half section of laud and 48 bead of cattle, 8 head of horses, aud 9 head of hogs, and I have plenty of feed for my stock, such as corn and Kafir corn and bay. I like Uklahoma, as my health is good here. I don't farm much myself; I rent my land to other parties and I look after my stock. The wheat is looking fine for the chance it has. We need rain very much, as the ground is too dry for the wheat to do much good. We have bad three little snows, but not enough to do much good. Yours truly, W. C. Barrisger. Urntallf Tortnred.

Woman's Kef n Urea Sara n Texas merchant from Being Burledj Alive Natlan F. Chidester, abuBiness man of Jefferson, Texas, was attacked with a serious ill Jess recently and died, according to the attending physician. An undertaker prepared the body for burial; it was wept over by the family, and one day last week the funeral ser vices were held at the Chidester home. A clergyman delivered a "powerful" sermon, at the close of which those present were invited to .take a last look at the dead. . e A Klative of Chidester's notioed, when she looked at life face, that the lips were moist. With a cry she de clared that the man was alive. A hur ried investigation was made and it was discovered that he was breathing. Physiciaus were quickly summoned and Chidester was removed from the coffin. In a short time he had regained con sciousness and was sitting up in bed. He is now able to walk about the house, and if no setback occurs he will be out attending to business in a few days. The coflin was taken back to the undertaking shop. Chidester has not been told of the nar row escape from being buried alive. It is feared that the shock might be too great for him to bear in bis present condition. Blood of Porto Rlrana la Sapped hj Parasite, A letter to the New York Herald from Major L. L. Seaman, M. D., who his been privately investigating condi tions among the inhabitants of Poito Rico, stales that the high death rate there and the anaemic condition of the rural population are due to the so-called Hook worm, known to science as 'ao kylostoma duodenale," which recently wns stated to be highly prevalent in the southern states and all tropical coun tries. When fully developed the worm sometimes attains a length of three quarters of an inch. Exhaustive investigation by a medi cal committee extending over the pact year show according to Dr. Seaman, that the disease produced by the worm has caused more than SO per cent, of the deaths in Purto Rico. The parasite is really a blood sucker. Its developmei.t requires about two months and its work in the intestines has baen found to greatly reduce the red corpuscles of the blood. Some of the patients examined by the commis sion showed, under microscopic tests, only 25 per cent, of the normal amount. One man had only 13 per cent. The UqL'd bore a pinkish tint, almost as light as water. At least 90 per cent, of the rural population on the island is asserted to be affected by the ravages of the para site, almost destroying their energy. Three or four doses of thymol or of betanapthol have generally achieved the most successful treatment. Cotton Crop Necessarily Huge. WAsHisofON, January 6.--Secretary Wi'son, who called on the President to day regarding a purely personal mat ter, reiterated his previous statement that this year's cotton crop would ap proximate 12,000,000 bales. He tx plaintd that Uiere was an excellent reason for the heavy crop this year a reason provided by nature itself which was not appreciated generally, . "Last year, you will recall," he said, "the cotton crop was short. That was due to the fact that a' serious drought prevailed a part of the year over the greater portion of the cotton belt, and much cotton did not mature. This shortage was accumulated, also, by the ravages of the boll weevil in some sec tions of the belt, particularly in Texas. Ihe drought, however, was the most serious difficulty which confronted the planters. In so dry a season as that of last year the plant cannot mature properly, because the plant food in the soil cannot be taken up an assimilated by the plant unless flie food is in solu tion. That year, Urrefore, the plant food remained in the ibil. It con tinued there until this season, mean time being added to by the provisions of nature during the winter and spring. This has been a favorable season fur the growth of cotton, and as the plants had practically a double supply of food, the yield is enormous. Next year, in all probability, the supply ft food in the soil will be about normal, and with a favorable season we shall have, very likely, a normal crop."

J., Fisnan Dubel's estate, it is now estimated, will amount to between $300,000 and (500,000. Since his death relatives have inau gurated a search of the Dubel premises, which has resulted in the finding of more than (9,000 in gold, silver and moth-eaten paper bills, chiefly of the (100 denomination. A. peck measure was found in a room full of rubbish containing (1,700, and a cigar box held (2,500 in gold. A thin 4ook, merely a pamphlet, contained be tween 88 consecutive leaves, 38 (100 bills, fnd old clothing in trunks and' closets had been receptacles for money. Living the life of a recluse for a score of years and having as his companion a house keeper, who was his ward, Du bel was known to have money, despite vigorous denials. His fortune increased during his life, but he received a large estate in line of descent from ancestors, who during the Revolution and prior to it, received enormous grants of land from the Eoglish Crown and the State of New Jersey.- rau'l Burn the Cotton, It is of interest to note that it has been held by the courts that a free citi zen of Texas has no right to burn or otherwise destroy his own farm pro ducts. Some yeats ago a farmer hsul d into a Texas town a load of corn which he offered for sale. He was tei, dried so low a price for the grain that he de liberately emptied the whole load into the river, whereupon he was convicted and fined for destroying a valuable product of the farm. The law reads, in effect: "If any per shall wilfully and mischievously injure or destroy any growing fruit, corn, grain orother like agricultural products, he shall be puniehed by a fine not ex ceeding one thousand dollars." This, read in connection with amend ments and other laws on the subject, takes away a Texan's right to bum his own cotton. modern Nundav observance. Kansas City Journal. Sunday long since cess 3d to be exolu sively a day of worship in the United States. In fact, the percentage of the population who are habitual church' goers is comparatively insignificant, Sunday has become not mucn more than a day of rest and recreation.
