Conserva ive estimates place th« number now at six million pouhds anlj over. This will be a decided increase in •lumber of pounds over previous years. II Jl does this increase bring the a mount to what it shoulil be? No'. An increase of even six million pounds over last season will fall far short in tring'iig the number of pounds to what t hey should be. - Some have stat ed thai this market should sell 20 The Butineas Outlook What of the business outlook seems to be the thought of the nation. For r years the upper gang has been seeing good business just ahead, and taking their word would have taken our minds off the mortgages that were being made everywhere. - Now that the rank and file of-1 he people have been beaten on the finan cial rocks until they have stood about all that they are able, the time has come for a change. So why not for the better? We have gone far enough in the year to see a fair corn crop. The cot ton crop will be larger than for sev eral years; the tobacco crop will be good; the prices and production of po tatoes, melons, peaches and all other crops common to this section of the country are good. Sow, the principal question from the farmer is,' how about prices? The UNCLE SAM'S BEST SELLER* Uncle Sam, one of the world's pro lific publishers, has a "best seller." The publication, which became ex hausted in June, 1924, has been re vised for the third lime and will soon be ready for di» ributiort again. It is ' on the subject "Baking u>_the Hon>e," and was first issued in July, 1917, by the United States Department of Agriculture. During the period 1917 to WIA more than 2, copies of this bulletin were distributed to the women of the country, other individuals, and organi sations. The popularity of this bul letin would seem to indicate that "bak ing day" is still an important insti tution in the American home. Other popular bulletins that might be listed as "best sellers" are those that have to do with poultry and gar dening. Since July, 1916, » number of J bulletins dealing with poultry man agement, poultry feeding, poultry dis eases, and poultry house construction have been issued to supply the demand for Information on poultry. Three of the more popular bulletins on the sub ject distributed during the period 1916 to 1926 amounted to more than a mil —«flM —A BIG DANCE AT BELHAVEN BEACH EVERY FRIDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT Sped*!

I That lie advantages are such that 120 | md! it'll pounds oi tobacco could be s>ld and be done very easily. It wa« not :i local man that said it, but he ii I a man who knows. The next question bioiu'hi this answer, "When the peo ple of Williamstol" get out and ad vertise their market, back their ware housemen, then your town will be on the road that will lead to the selling of twenty million pounds of tobacco." From indications of the past few days, we are on that road, and with the combined help of all we will reach the goal as placed by our friend. t biggest factor in determining the price will be the attitude of the moneyed folks. If they believe the public stood about all it can, then they will give business a dose of elixir to swing the people bkek into state of good feeling. The long depression would indicate that it is time for a good business year. 11 wuld seem almost impossi ble for the tobacco magnates to beat, down the price of tobacco, a thing thej will not do »o long as the farmers maintain a marketing association. The price of ?otton is lower than the price of other great products of the country. So we should not fear much lower prices on cotton. What applies to cotton and tobacco is largely true of the other staples of the country. Then why not some feeling of op timism and hope for better business conditions ? Four editions' of bulletins dealing with the small vegetable garden were distribu.ed during the same period to the amount of 3,630,818 copies. Since li> 16 the department has is sued each year a publication lifting and discussing the game laws of the United Slates, for the season. Nine editions of .his publication have hud a total distribution during that time ol 1,823,310 copies. One other best seller, which has had up to the present time a distribution of more than a million copies, is the Farmers Bulletin No. 861, "Removal of Stains from Clothing." By the time a lazy man gets up enough energy it is too late. To many people are shaking head* and too few shaking hands. The Philippine Islands have doubled | their debt again. They will soon be oualified for high finance If this sort of thing keeps up. John D. says it is impossible to get u monopoly of money. Rut John hip 1 not quit trying yet.

By ArtUr BHeb— DUnNUHING EARTHQUAKES. NO THIRD TOIL MUST THE STRIKE COME? THE HEN, FIG AND COW. » California earthquake reports dwindle down, as was predicted, tire times as, many deaths in a ■mall section of a big Eastern city, due to some disease outbreak, would attract no attention. Those that know - California know that this misfortune of a moment will be wiped away, made up and Boon forgotten. It will not check California's growth by a» much as an hour. The Italian earthquake 1915 killed 19,973, and in 1908 earth quakes in Italy killed 76,482. Italy kas volcanoes in addition to earth quakes, yet nobody says,' "I shall not go to Italy." A aosen killed In California, and "vicious pub licity" makes of the event a . GIGANTIC DISASTER. Soma Wall Street gentlemen organized a little panic Dased on Santa Barbara's earthquake and now wish they hadn't. They sold short California stocks, oils, rails, etc. But real finance knows that, compared to the total wealth of California, the property destruc tion in Santa Barbara is like los ing one nail in a nail factory. The Htocks "snapped" back again, and the panic promoters had their fingers pinched. The New York Times devotes part of its front page to "a third term for Coolldge." There can't Abe any Coolidge third term discussion until after the President shall have been re elected in 1928. He has been elect ed only once thus far. If, as is probable, he should be re-elected in 1928, that would be his SEC OND TERM and the right time to begin talking of a THIRD term.

Meanwhile, there is plenty of work for the people to ao without worrying about distant Issues. If the President carried the nation successfully through his FIRST elected term, without serious mistakes or setbacks, be will have rendered a great service to the United States, and the people of his party, not being Idiots, will ask him to take charge for four years more. A great coal strike threatens here, a- imilar strike threatens Engl a r • Ir. Lewis, leader of coal n and owners of mines shoulu i. .it over carefully. To force a strike, when the people ore willing to pay a fair price for coal based on fair wages, is folly anii the intelligence of organized money should find a way to prevent it. _ The man responsible for the success of Ihe coal miners' union knows that this is not the best time for strikes, and he will avoid THIS strike, if in any just way it can be dona Insurance authorities, that ought to know, deny flatly that cancer is hereditary. Nature pro tects the unborn child. Study of thousands of cases proves that the disease is not inherited, also it is NOT CONTAGIOUS. Unlike consumption and other diseases, you cannot "catch" caneer from its victim. It is important to have this known. Missionaries to Afriea take a tame menagerie, including chick ens, pigs, cattle and goats. As they travel, the mlssioniries will observe how these interesting aal mals all represent EVOLUTION. The White Leghorns and Rhode Island ttedg come from jungle fowl. Cows are improved sisters of the auroch, the buffalo, or the zebu. The pigs have their rela tives scattered from the tapirs in South America to the fierce, big toothed wart hog of the jungle, or the hippopotamus.
