consequent effect upon the value of

struck a sympathetic chord in the

problem.
Our attention has been called to u
In the South, to create a

never been directly interested
in the handling of the cotton crop, and
we have ourselves had some requests
from friends In the South to do what

The conditions are peculiarly dis-

without any fault
