Texas took first honors in the
Salvation Army’s 1920 Home
Service Appeal for funds to sup-
port the work of the Army for
the coming year when the Mis-
sion District of Hidalgo County
raised their quota of $275.00
within five minutes after the
county’s allotment had been
made.
John H. Savage, President of
the Southwest Texas State Ad-
visory Board was presiding at
the state convention in San An-
tonio, and immediately after he
read off $1750.00 as Hidalgo
County’s proportionate share of
the state budget, Jno. P. Gor-
don, President of the Advisory
Board in the Mission District, of
that county pulled out his check
book and wrote out a check for
his share.

The majority report of the an-
thracite coal commission added
approximately $85,000,000 to the
wages of the miners. A minority
report suggested a further in-
crease in the rate of pay, but
very fairly stated that the ma-
jority report should “have the
full practical acceptance” of the
miners, in accordance with the
obligation assumed when the me-
thod for obtaining the wage
award was agreed upon. There-
upon an energetic group of labor
leaders started in to repudiate
the vote of the men direct from
the mines who accepted the ori-
ginal proposition for settling
their wage grievances, and they
are now reminded by President
Wilson that “by all the laws of
honor upon which civilization
rests, that (their) pledge should
be fulfilled.”
Thus again, disaster has been

agreement within the industry
was submitted to an investiga-

ficial body—which gave the in-
creases in wages that had been
asked for.

two thousand pounds approxima-
tely 28 pounds of phosporic acid
valued at $2.10, 64 pounds of ni-
trogen valued at $19.20, and 32
pounds of potash valued at $6.40
making a total valuation of $28.-
70. A ton of cottonseed meal
should have a fertilizer valuation
of $51.65, if it contains 43 per
cent protein. In a mixed fertili-
zer, the plant food costs consider-
ably more than this.
“If the cottonseed sells at
$28.70, a ton of cottonseed meal
should sell for $51.65 for ferti-
lizer purposes. Cottonseed meal
should have really a higher sel-
ling price than its fertilizer va-
luation, as it has a feed value in
addition to its fertilizer value.
The meal would be more easily
applied to the ground, and is
certainly more easily stored, and
less liable to damage. With cot-
tonseed at $20.00 a ton, cotton-
seed meal should sell for $36.00 a
ton in order to secure the same
fertilizing value. If 1000 pounds
of cottonseed meal, and 600
pounds of cottonseed Lulls are
exchanged for a ton of seed, the
exchange is approximately even
in fertilizing value, but the per-
son exchanges loses the cost of
hauling the seed to the mill and
hauling the materials back.
“Texas Cotton seed contains
approximately 13.3 pounds diges-
tible protein and 18.5 pounds
productive value in 100 pounds
Cottonseed does have nearly the
same feeding value as cotton-
seed meal, for fatten purposes,
but for balancing a ration it
contains much less protein, and
has a lower value. On account
of the hight oil content, it is
not possible to use more than 3
to 5 pounds cottonseed per day,
or the digestion of he animal
will be injured.”

ran without looking at all to see
where he was going.
Before he knew it he hopped
right into the middle of a puddle
of water. Little chicks do not
like water at all, so poor Blackie
was more frightened than ever!
He fluttered his little wings, took
a great hop and up he jumped on
to a smooth stone in the middle
of the puddle.
"Peep, peep, peep, Mother,
Mother!” he cried. But mother
hen was far away in the yard
and could not even hear him.
The old tabby cat was curled
up in the sun on the steps of the
farm house porch, not far away.
The little girl had given her a
good saucer of milk and she was
napping after her breakfast.
“Peep, peep, peep!" cried the
baby chick from his stone in the
puddle, “I want my mother!"
The old tabby cat heard him
and came down to see if she
could help. She put one paw in
to the water, but drew it out in
a hurry and shook off the drops,
then she sat down as if she
were trying to think of some
other way for tabby cat did not
like to wet her feet.
“Peep! peep! peep! I want my
mother, I’m afraid I’m going to
drown. ”
Ran! went the sereen door and
down the porch steps ran the
little girl! How she did laugh
•when she saw little Blackie and
the trouble he was in.
“Never mind, Blackie, I’ll take
you back to your mother,” she
said and picking him up very
carefully, she carried him back to
the old mother hen.

The Solid South along with
the rest of the country, and the
Southern Democrats along with
other Americans, have greatly
profitted by the wise and able
Democratic administration of the
last eight years.
In the result of the present na-
tional election they are vitally
interested. They have on their
hands no local fights. Their in-
terest in the presidential cam-
paign while keen is not so ac-
tive as that of the Northern,
Eastern, ami Western Democrats
who are bearing the burden of
battles both in their state and
in the nation.
The Southern Democrats, how-
ever, should take an active part
and not be merely interested by-
standers in this great contest.
It is to be hoped, for the good
of the Democratic party and for
the good of the nation and for
their own good, that they contri-
bute as largely as they can to the
Democratic campaign fund.
The Democrats are drawing
their money from the body of the
people. They cannot use some
and will not use others of the
methods of raining money adopt-
ed by the Republicans. Each in-
dividual Democrat should contri-
bute his part to the compara-
