Big Slumps in
Market Price
It is only through co-operative
marketing that the fcotton grower
can save himself from the big slumps
in price.
With a large cotton crop facing the
cotton farmer, and the price being
hammered down, it makes it more
important now than ever that there
be an extra effort on the part of the
cotton growers to unite and market
their cotton in an orderly manner.
The old wasteful systen\ costs more
than an over-production.
Call at the Farm Bureau office in
rear of First Natio'nal Bank and talk
to a representative of the Texas
Farm Bureau Cotton Association. He
will explain how easy it is to be-
come a member.

BARK "WRAPPING PAPER” ~
The Chopi Tibetans retain their in
dividuality partly because they in-
habit inaccesible mountains. At their
capital, Choni, on the Tao river, lives
the hereditary Chinese ruler of 48
tribes of people. He can levy taxes,
quell rebellions and administer pun-
ishment, but the Chinese say to him,
•‘He has the pig’s head, but cannot
find the door of the temple.” They
unply that he is willing to give bribes
tt> keep his position, but too many
officials* expect them, and he cannot
tell1 which deserves the largest. A
recent study of the province includes
extensive botanical and zooligical ob- ^
nervations. One tree, known locally as
the: "red birch,” is a boon to traders,
tt has a shining, brown, papery bark,
'wHicli peels off in large, thin sheets,
which are used by Tibetans and
Chinese for wrapping butter and oth-
er food articles.—Ex.
It appears as if sentiment regard-
ing penalties to be imposed for law
violations is changing. It is to bo
hoped that it is.
Beginning with the verdict and
sentence imposed the other day for
robbery, juries seem to have taken
a new interest in law enforcement.
For instance, last Monday, a jury
in Criminal District court was asked
by the prosecuting attorney to as-
sess a certain penalty, the same be-
ing a fine of $25, but after deliber-
ating the case the jury added a
thirty-day jail sentence to the fine.
That an agreement had been made
between the prosecutor and counsel
for the defendant seemed to have
made no difference at all to the jur-
ors. They heard the plea of guiltv,
listened to the evidence, and return-
their verdict, regardless of the re-
mmendation of the prosecutor.
In the past juries have been known
prescribe a lesser penalty than
the one agreed to by the defendant
prosecutor, but to prescribe a
more severe penalty is something al-
most unheard of before.
The two verdicts, however, do not
necessarily mean that this change in
sentiment is going to be a lasting
one. Future juries may not act as
recent ones have.
It is to be hoped that they will.
It is to be hoped that the change
in sentiment will be lasting one.—
