SOLONS DEEP
IN STUDY OF

Legislature Not Ready to Ad-

Been Fully Decided.
MESSAGES DELUGE HOUSE
Concerted Demand Made for
Law Curtailing Cotton Pro-
duction Next Year.
AUSTIN Tex.. Oct 15 —The Sen-
ate today by a vote of 12 to 7 with
two pairs adopted a Senate concur-
rent resolution Introduced by Sena-
tor Watson providing for sine die
adjournment on next Saturday at
noon. On motion of Senator Latti-
more the Senate reconsidered the
vote by which this resolution was
adopted and had this spread on the
journal. Of the effect of this mo-
tion is that the resolution may be
called up and reconsidered at any
time by a majority vote. It is not
likely the House will concur in this
resolution as there would be no time
to pass the cbtton acreage reduction
measure.
McAdoo Thanks Senate.
A telegram was read from Secre-
tary of the Treasury McAdoo thank-
ing the Senate for their endorse-
ment of his position with reference
to certain of the national banks
hoarding the emergency currency
which has been allotted to them and
not lending the money to the farm-
ers.
Senator Watson offered and had
adopted a resolution felicitating Sen-
ator McNealus of Dallas on the six-
ty-fourth anniversary of his birth.
Consider Divorcement Bill.
The House gin mill divorcement
bill applying to corporations came
up for consideration in the Senate
but an effort is being made to dis-
place it on tht* grounds that it has
not received proper consideration
by Senate judiciary committee No. 1
to which it had been referred. Sen-
ator Watson is leading the opposi-
tion to prevent consideration of the
bill.
State Senator Castile of Missis-
sippi. who is here briefly addressed
the Senate in favor of legislation on
the reduction of cotton acreage- He
said that Texas being the largest
producer of cotton the other cotton
states were anxiously waiting to see
what this state is going to do in the
premises.
The House was deluged today
with telegrams petitions letters and
communications sent to members
from all over the cotton producing
counties throughout the state beat-
ing on the cotton acreage question.
The great bulk of these communica-
tions and telegrams were In favor of
enforced reduction in acreage some
favoring 50 per cent others along
the 25 per cent of total acreage plan
while others favored total elimina-
tion for 1915.
One of the communications from
Converse. Tex. opposed the Legis-
lature taking any action whatever
looking to any reduction In the acre-
age.
Would Refer to Voters
Representative Humphrey intro-
duced a House concurrent resolution
providing that the whole question of
reduction of cotton acreage be re-
ferred to the voters of Texas to pass
upon at the November election. He
thought that this was the proper so-
lution of the question and said the
resolution be adopted and the peo-
ple favor reduction of acreage then
the governor would be authorized to
call a special session of the Thirty-
fourth Legislature to enact a meas-
ure accordingly. The resolution was
defeated by a vote of 79 to 19.
The House reconsidered the un-
favorable report made on the Tillot-
son and Kirby-Terrell cotton acre-
age reduction bills and recommitted
the two bills the idea being that it
may result in passing a permanent
measure as well as an emergency
measure.
The Senate adopted a resolution
endorsing the action of the south-
ern senators in Congress to secure
the issurance of $250000000 4 per
cent bonds to be applied in purchas-
ing cotton at 10 cents per pound.
Senator Henderson introduced a new
cotton acreage reduction bill. His
bill provides for a 45 per cent reduc-
tion for the farmer who owns his
land and a 60 per cent reduction for
the tenant farmer. A fine of not less
than $lOO and not more than $2OOO
is provided for any owner or non-
owner of land planted in cotton for
the violation of the proposed act.
Reduce Acreage 50 Per (’ent.
Hosue committee on agriculture
consumed the entire afternoon in
the consideration of the cotton
acreage reduction bills and agreed
to report favorably a bill which
provides for a 50 per cent reduction
in acreage of cotton. Several farm-
ers. bankers and business men ap-
peared before this committei. and
most of those who addressed the
committee favored total elimina-
tion. Judge J. C. Hickey president
of a bank at Henderson and an
cil man. insisted that there should
be a total elimination; that no ben-
efit would result in a 50 per cent
reduction. He had traveled exten-
sively over north Texas and ad-
dressed the farmers and he de- (
dared that they were unanimously
in favor of total elimination; that
the minute the legislature passed a
law providing for entire elimination
he would be willing to lend money
to the farmers on cotton based on
S cents a pound.
Cannot Call 3 4th Legislature.
There is considerable doubt in
the minds of a number of the mem-
bers of the house as to the power
of the governor to call any session
of the thirty-fourth legislature;
they declare that under the consti-
tution no such authority is vested
in the chief executive. Should this
point be upheld the governer would
lie debarred from carrying his in-
tended plan to try his luck with the
new legislature and the present
legislative body expires after No-
vember 3 when all new members
are to be elected. From the expira-
tion of the present session to No-

FIRST LESSON IN
COOKING IS GIVEN
Y. W. C. A. Launches Class
Upon Winter Course in
Domestic Science.
Enveloped In big white aprons and
armed with note books and pencils
a class of young women — young
girls and Mesdames Newlyweds—-
gathered around the tables in the
newly equipped domestic science
rooms of the ) oung Women's Chris-
tian Association Thursday morning
to begin a course in domestic sciehce.
It was the first lesson of the winter
course offered with Miss Hazel Har-
dy as instructor.
Particular attention has been giv-
en to the domestic science depart-
ment in the new building and the
class room is splendidly equipped
with gas sto*.es tables sinks and
everything for a thorough course in
the art of home-making. As Miss
Hardy explained in her talk of in-
troduction. domestic science is a sys-
tematic knowledge of anything that
pertains to home with cooking as
one branch.
They began on potatoes this
morning and after these vegetables
were washed —"no you don’t wash
them with soap.” explained Miss
Hardy—and baking in the oven.
Mis s Hardy toid a lot of things about
potatoes their food value how to
cook them and why.
"Potatoes are placed in a meal
not so much for nutriment as for
bulk. Their chief ingredient Is
starch. They contain very little
mineral matter and that is next to
the skin. So you understand why it
always has been said that baked po-
tatoes are the most nutritious. It
will take 35 to 4 5 minutes for the po.
tutoes to bake —then break the skin
to keep them from being soggy.
"Potatoes to boil must be put on
in hot water: otherwise the starch
grains contained in the potato do
not pop open and the potato is not
mealy. The potatoes must not be al.
lowed to stand in water after they
are done. Pried potatoes are not as
digestible as boiled or baked and
should be in deep hot fat to
be nutritious. To make Saratoga
' chips crisp the sliced potato must
। be soaked for at least two hours in
ire water. Potatoes must be used
■ in combination with meats- « r fats
for food. Because potatoes lack
both fat and mineral substance they
* are eaten with salt and butter. X’ e
think it is onh because of the taste.
i but it is Nature’s demand for the
1 kind of food needed.”
She told how to use potatoes left
from the day before in salad with
cream dressing and in croquets.
Seven courses are offered by the
domestic science department. The
morning class for simple cookery
of cereals vegetables eggs milk
and cheese mixtures etc.; the class
for meat cookery for pastries and
sauces for the care of the dining
room and furnishings for the plan-
ning of menus for the chafing dish
and a course offered to maids.

lADIIS! DARKEN
W GRAY HAU
Use Grandma’s Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and No-
body Will Know
The use of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded gray hair to its nat-
ural color dates back to grandmoth-
er's time. She used If to keep her
hair beautifully dark glossy and
abundant. Whenever her hair fell
out or took on that dull faded or
streaked appearance this simple
mixture was applied with wonderful
effect.
But brewing at home is mussy
and out-of-date. Nowadays by ask-
ing at any drug store for a 50-cent
bottle of “Wyeth's Sage and Sul-
phur Compound.’’ you will get this
famous old recipe which can de-
pended upon to restore nattfbal color
and beauty to the hair and is splen-
did for dandruff dry. feverish itchy
scalp and falling hair.
A well-known druggist says it
darkens the hair so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair taking
one strand at a time. By morning
the gray hair disappears and after
another application or two It be-
comes beautifully dark glossy and
abundant.
Four State Executives Appeal
to Congress and President
to Save Situation.
IMMEDIATE RELIEF ASKED
Only Federal Aid. They Say.
Can Forestall Disastrous
Results to All South.
Washington. r>. c.. oct. 15.—
Declaring that the crisis confront-1
ing the cotton Industry Is so serious
that only Federal aid can forestall i
disastrous results the governors ot
fiur cotton states. In telegrams;
made public here today appeal to I
President Wilson and Congress for ।
immediate relief measures.
Governor O. B. Colquitt of Texas 1
characterizes the outlook as one of
“certain bankruptcy" and adds
that the situation "is daily growing
worse."
Suggests t.ovemmcnt Funds.
"Emergency currency issued to j
the banks has not relieved the cot-
ton states" says the Texas execu-
tive. "But the deposit of govern-
ment funds in banks under the ex-
press condition that it be advanced
upon cotton at Its fair value at a
low rate of interest for one year
with the legislatures of the cotton
producing states or through an act
oi Congress curtailing the acreage I
and production for 1915 would in |
my opinion very nearly solva the j
situation." •
Loans to farmers at 4 per cent on
warehoused cotton are suggested by '
Governor Earl Brewer of Missis-1
sippi.
"The government cannot possible
lose." he says "tor this would be
a gilt-edged security."
He also urges curtailment of next
year’s crop.
Asks Federal deduction Law.
"The cotton situation in this state
grows worse day by day” said Lee
Cruce governor of Oklahoma. "The
producers of cotton are absolutely
at the mercy of the spinners and
speculators. In my opinion the I
Federal government should pass a!
law restricting acreage for the year
1915 and should in addition offer
substantial financial aid In holding I
the surplus production for this vear
by extending credit at a low rate of
Interest."
Governor John M. Slaton of
Georgia in his telegram says that
while his state contemplates carlv I
steps to cope with the situation he
i.; convinced that the farmers must
. look to Congress for any adequate
relict.

Court in Peede Case.
AUSTIN. Tex.. Oct. 15.—Governor
Colquitt announced today his deter-
mination to see that the Allison

taken to restrain the railway com-
panies and express companies from

' held that under Section 5 of the Al-
lison liquor law. liquor could be de-i
livered by express companies to in- 1
