' CO-OPER HIVE
MARKETING OF
PHOENIX, Ariz., May 24 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Co-operative market
ing of the entire cotton crop of the
United States is contemplated in a
plan being devised by the American
^^Cotton Association, according to W.
S. Stevens, president of the Arizona
branch, the Arizona-American-Egypt
ian Cotton Growers’ Association, on
l$s return from the annual convention
of the national association at Mont
gomery, Ala.
As a start towards national
co-operative marketing of cotton the
various branches of the association
have tried co-operative marketing on
a small scale this year, according to
Mr. Stevens, and the experiment has
proved so successful as to warrant
working out a national plan to elimi
nate the middle men and give a larg
er profit to the cotton grower.
To formulate this plan, a national
commission, appointed by the associa
tion, will study the marketing
methods of all successful marketing
associations, both domestic and for
eign. Mr. Stevens said.
ANY OLD TIME TIME
YOU WANT IN OHIO
I
* COLUMBUS, 0., May 24 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Ohio will have four
different names for its clock time this
▼ear, and three actually different
kinds of time. They are: Eastern
standard, sun time, central standard,
and advanced central standard.
The last mentioned is a name only,
for it coincides with eastern standard
time. The name came about through
action of communities in western Ohio
deciding to advance their clocks one
hour. It was the same as eastern
^standard time, but they preferred to
eall it advanced central standard.
About half of Ohio is on eastern ’
standard time because the regular di
viding line runs midstate from north
to south.
When it ;s noon at Youngstown, it
will be 11 a. m. at Cincinnati, Dayton
and Toledo, but it will be noon at.
Hamilton and Springfield, wrhich are
but a few miles out of Cincinnati and j
•Dayton. At the same time, it will j
be 11:30 o’clock sun time in some
other places. 1
URGES SCOUTS TO BE AVIATORS.
The boy scouts of New England are
urged to take instruction in flying by
Col. L. H. Drenan, air service officer .
at array headquarters, who, in speak
ing of the boy scouts and their future
work, points to the necessity of a me
chanical training as one of their
strongest assets.
“I have been asked to speak before
the boy scouts, and, in every instance,
I have urged upon them the necessity
of knowing machines, especially the
airplane,” said the colonel.
“While these boys may never fly.
they should get acquainted with the
mechanism of these machines.”
THE BOY SCOUT'S BUSY LIFE.
*Boy Scout Troop No. 1 of Colliers
ville, Tenn., helped the town to keep
the public square clean. The troop
has taken during the past year 114
merit badges. They have one Eagle
Scout and one Star Scout.
Warren. Pa., Scout Troop No. 6 has
sent to National Council headquar
ters for use in some special way in
connection with extension of the boy
scout movement a $50 Liberty bond
purchased with money earned by
planting trees.
The Memphis and St. Paul teams
daring the training period will make
a tour of several Kentucky and Ten

President Wilson demanded “all or

William Randolph Hearst is gradu
ally working up quiet a little enthu
siasm for his cwn candidacy for the
Presidency.
Along with the overalls ought to go
rubber collars which not only reduce
laundry bills but harmonize beautiful
ly with the uniform.
Wonder if the time will ever come
when there will be as many plausible
excuses for reducing prices as there
are now for raising ’em?
Some of these days the American
people are going to insist upon a
show down on the question of who’s
)oss in the United tSates.
We repeat that Colonel Bryan is
the logical candidate for the Demo
cratic presidential nomination be
cause he only runs for the practice.
Naturally the Democratic politicians
think the present congress is a fail
ure. It isn’t spending money half as
fast as a Democratic congress would.
Mr. McAdoo announces he is not a
candidate for the Presidency. He is
merely one of the patriots upon whom
the populace is trying to force the
job.
Mr. Morrison and Mr. Palmer dis
agree as to the cause of the switch
men’s strike, but everybody agrees
that it was caused by the men quit
ting work.
“Palmer Sees a Drop in Cost of
Living,” says a headline in the AVash
ington Post. But Mr. Palmer has
been seeing things almost as long
as Mr. Wilson has been hearing ’em.
Now that Senator John Sharpe Wil
liams says he would rather be a dog
and bay at the moon than stay in the
senate the problem of what to do with
our ex-senators is solved in one case
at least.
The wear-overalls movement will
aot decrease the price of other cloth
ing, but it will boost the price of
averalls, so it cannot be said that
t has lived entirely in vain.

absorbed the Alaska interests of the
Surf Packing Company, which are lo
cated at Snug harbor, Cook inlet, and
plan this year to largely increase the

able that the clam-canning plant will
be operated as usual. The Carlisle

tively new organization, has a pro

ESCAPED FROM
PRISON WITH
AID NEEDLE
RAWLINS, Wyo., May .*'4 <by Asso
ciated Press}.—With a needle obtain
ed in the prison shirt factory as his
roly tool, Bert Loften has escaped
; from the state prison here. William
Smith, his companion was captured
while trying to scale the prison wall.
Loften and Smith were confined to
the death house cell because of their
known desperate character. Loften
found that a soft piece of steel cover
ed a drain. With his great patience
and skill, he slowly cut a hole
through the steel with his needle.
After removing a pipe and a plate
they crawled through the hole, picked
the lock of a steel door connecting
with the main corridor of the prison,
scaled the tiers of cells, cut holes
through the slate roof and dropped to
the ground. In the prison yard, they
found a steel bar which the prisoners
bent into a hook to fasten an impro
vised rope on the prison wall.
Loften escaped but Smith was
caught by a guard.
If it’s true that George Creel went
out of office leaving a lot of uncash
ed cheks lying around in his office
he deserves condemnation from the
administration'for unprofessional con
duct in having left money get away
without spending it.
