Hold Your Cotton. Harvie Jordan, president of the Southern Cotton Growers' Associa tion, advises the farmer. to hold their cotton for 12 cents. He argues that nearly all" the cotton crop is about harvested. debts generally hare been pail. and it is not neces sary to sell. Mr. Jordan calls atten tion to the fact that up to the middle of October only 6.400,000 bales had teen ginned, and that the total crap of cotton will not exceed 11,000,000 bales, it that much, hence the spinners can afford to pay 12 cents for every pound of cotton made this year, and at the same time make a good profit for the stockholders in their mills. The price of yarns has advanced 8 per cent in the last two months and an unprecedented demand for cotton goods exists. The stocks are lower than they have been for twenty years, theref 're Mr. Jordan insists that the grower hold his cotton for better prices, which are bound to come. Two parishes in Louisiana. Avoy elles and Morehouse, went "dry" as a result of the election last week. The majority for prohibition in Avoy elles was 244, whileln Morehouse the majority was not quite as large, only about 70. Both of these parishes, like Grant, have tried prohibition and find that they alebetteroff with out whisky. Our New Job Press.

Landrum was dynamiting fish at Alberta, Ia., when a stick of dynamite exploded in his hand, ne cessitating the amputation of that member. Anent this the Jonrnal says: "If there is a law in Louisiana against dynamiting. fish there is a culprit in the Shreveport hospital for treatment."
