While, they learn American coivfc : ;-g. and sewing it is hoped that incidentally they, will learn not only the\. Azperican language but American ideas qf living as well! Working for More Pastures. The\ pasture'problem in the coastal plain section .of the South must be solved, says the United States Depart- ment, of Agriculture, in order to bring about agricultural utilization of these )'•>.(!.<. The problem hag become in- creasingly important since the high pru-e* of feeds are, more and more f. t'~ \g attention to the only cheap l-'i.-.d ijasturage. The Bureau of Plant Industi*y has recently done a j:reaf deal of work along this line. The investigators have confirmed the blue- srsss-pasture experiments, in which it was shown, that heavy pasturing was much' the best method both agronomi- c-ally and=«co'n6micall-y. Unfortunate- ly, say, the specialists, 'facilities for itd dtti , of land |n the ? United States, and maps are available in the Bureau of Soils, United States Department of Agriculture^ showing the character of soil in every tfSok of those areas. The surveys made during the past year covered 33,988 square miles. During the year, also, the Soil Survey did a great deal of work in co-operation witli other agencies, some of it pe-r- taining to foreign countries. At the 1 request o£ the Stats Department a party from the Soil Survey went to* Central America and made an eco- nomic surVey s bi! parts of Guatemala and Honduras. Foj 1 Hie American! Geographic Society, in formation was; compiled relating to the'soils of Africa and Asiatic Russia. It Pays to Grade Cotton. Texas grow rs producing cotton of good staple and marketing it coopera- tively received from lVt to 8 cents more a pound for their cotton thatt was received for other cotton, grown in the same community and sold by in<- dividual tirmers, according to the Bui- reau of Markets, tr. S. Department of Agriculture, Demonstrations have been made to acquaint producers with the desirability of classifying their cotton before sale and to show them. how to use market quotations in de- termlning ^the^valiie of their crop. About 236,360 bales of cottoon were classed in this work in Texas, Arkan- sas, North Carolina, Louisiana, Mis- issippi, and South Carolina during the cotton season of 191S.19. New Grapes in Wine Districts. Investigations being conducted bv • Ve United States Departmeat of .\ srieulture have apparently demon- s''rated the long-Keeping grapes can bid successfully grown on a commer- cial scale in the wine-grape districts of the Pacific coast. The Chief oif the Bureau of Plant Industry reports that the culture of the Ohanez and other late varieties can apparently be carried on advantageously with a view to their taking the place of the AJmeria and other types of long-keep- expariments.-and 'demonstrations are mg grapes that are now imported into . wjiptty inadequate in attempting to work- out a^system of better handling of northern pastures. On the coastal plains of- the* South, unless the soils a*e. much' affected by drought, con- tinue the experts* carpet grass supple- mented 'with., lespedeza makes excel- lent pasture.' -Golden crown grass is also excellent. BSorts are being made, 1 with, the aid., of a new striing machine, to. place carpet grass seed* on the market in adequate quantity. Several newly'.introduced grasses are promis- ing as'pasture possibilities. \ Testing Asiatic Grasses. Nunierous_ grasses and legumes se- cured by bontanical explorations in central, Asia may disclose species that will^solve the problem o£ range improvem'en't 'on semiarid lands, ac- cording to the Bureau of Plant Indus- try; fjnljed States Department of Agriculture. There is a constant de- J raahd for grass that will increase the amount of feed above- that which may be secured by rational grazing of the this country from Spain and else- where. This industry, in connection with the development of the Panarifi and other currant grapes already un- der way gives good promise of fututfe profits for the wine-grape growers of the Pacific coast. MEMBERSHIPS IN THE GEOGRAPHIC SOCIETYAWMBEJI Honors Are Conferred Upon Americans for Distin- DANCING BAN Urges Methodist. Church Take Action—Go to Theaters Also. NEW YORK. Dec. 26.—The Morning Telegraph says: J. Henry Smythe, Jr., son of the noted Methodist minister, Rev. Dr. J. Henry Smythe, one of the pillars of the most powerful Protestant church in America, again urges Methodists to raise the ban on danc- ing and theatres. It is written in the Methodist Book of Discipline that members oC the church may npt. dance or witness theatrical produc- tions, but despite this many attend theatres good and Methoddsts dances. J. Henry Smythe. Jr., says in a let- ter to the Morning Telegraph: \Do fellow-Methodists and other church folk realize how much harm the Methodist prohibition of amuse; ments has done in about half a cen- tury? I trust that the general confer- ence this May in I>es Moines wili obey the plea of the younger progress «ixe Methodists and lift the ban. Why keep people out of religious work or away from membership en- tirely just because of the mistaken idea it is the church's duty to regu- late practially all of a person's ac- tions? \World freedom should also mean more religious liberty! The Ruling of the Church \Do many Methodists know Para- graph 280, headed \Trial of a Church Member;. Imprudent Conduct,' in part is as follows: \In cases of neglect, of duties of any lciiid, itum-udent conduct, indulg- ing in sinful tempers or words, dancing, playing at games of chance, attending theatres, .horse races, cir- cuses, dancing parties' or patronizing dancing schools. * * *.. On the third offense let. him be brought to trial, a.nd if found guilty and there is__no sign of real humiliation, he shall be expelled.\—Methodist Book of Dis- cipline. ''Has an denomination the right— let alone justification—to say mem-' bers must not attend a circus? It is unthinkable such a law would be adopted now, so why retain it? Dare tlie church forbid all attendance at motion picture-shows? Resolution^ Favor Lifting Ban \At my request both the Dancing Masters' ^.sociation and the Pro ; diicing Managers' Asociation passed resolutions '' unanimously requesting a.bolition of • the discipline ban on ; abolito p dancing and tho theatre respectively, This produced the necessary pub-. iicity nationally for the question.

Reasons underlying\ the choice of the eight men whose names were an- nounced today reveal a fascinating story of geographic achievement, ranging-from the introduction of ttie insect which made California fig-grow- ing practicable, to the studies which made possible the laying of the North Sea Mine Barrage. i One of the recipients.

Harvard's eleven shall wear num- bers in the New Year's day game with Oi'egon is one of the questions which the Tournament of Roses football committee will seek to decide as soon as 1 the Crimson squad arrives today. Oregon's team, like other Pacific conference elevens, carried numbers in all games o fthe coast season, but opposition to their so doing in the New Year's game, unless Harvard also adopts the system, is said to have developed. '•'• Selection of officials may cause dis- cussion when the easterners make •their appearance, according to per- sons close to \Shy\ Huntington, Ore- gon's coach. Harvard's expressed •wish for A. G-. Van Surdam, formerly of Wesleyan, and D. W. Merriman, Pennsylvania, referee, is said to be op- posed by Huntington, who favors Rob- erts Maxwell of Philadelphia, for one, if any eastern man is chosen, and eith- er W. S. Kienholz, Pasadena; George V. YarnelT, Spokane, Wash., or Sam Dolan, Corvallis, Ore., for another. Meanwhile, however, Hun'iugton is bending eveiy energy toward getting' Iris charges in the best possible con- dition. The sc-hedu'e of two workouts daily, started Monday, is expected to ~or.i-.inue the remainder of the week, with a possible layoff Saturday after- noon to permit the Oregonians to watch the California interseholastic football championship contest here.

In his Srobable batting order Manager Mit- c-h<?H has Fred Merkle guarding the first sack and holding down senevth *>la.tee. Although Merkle showed signs • of slowing up last season tho farmer Giant' and Roliih compiled .-.reditable records -£t hat and in the fiel.d.

At bat Fred came through with many timely blows Manager Mitchell' 'is confident that next season Merkie'.Hvjll be as good, if not better, than last summer. The fviily change in the make-up of •the Cubs next summer will be in the outfield. Max Flack, who ever since bp. became z, member of the National League aggregation held down the post in right field, will be shifted to the middle pasture. Davey Robertson will be used in right field exclusively. The- owe time Giant joined the Cubs during the 1919 sea- son and participated in 25 games, and his fielding average for the eon- tests was .932. He accepted 55 chances out of a possible 59. Manager ' Mitchell is certain that rext se'onji Robertson vill have re- gained all the skill he showed while a member of the Giants, and he has -selected him to lead off the 1920 batting order. Turner Barber will patrol the left field territory again, and- out of the numerous youngsters who will train in Pasadena, Cal., next spring Mitchell hopes to find a.t least one who may be kept as a utility man. The leader of the Cubs has made it known that his team will have one of the best pitching staffs in the •country when the coming campaign opens. In the official averages of last, season Grover Alexander was awarded first place and Jim Vaughn was not far behind the big ace. Aleck and Vaughn will get much valuable assistance next summer from Lefty Tyler, who was of little or no use 1 to the , club la.st season. Tyler recently had his teeth removed, and since the operation his health \has improved. Hejooks forward to having a big year in 1920. Claude Hendrix and.

Killefer will as usual do the' bulk of the backstopping; Charles Herzog will cover the key stone-bag, Charley Hollocher will look after shortstop and Charley Deal will guard the far corner. With •'Merkle this infield shapes up strong 1 ,. >'nd there are many who believe it to be among the best in the Heydler or- ganization. While Manager Mitchell has.decid- •ed-iipon his line-up for HIP. 1920 sea- .ison, he will take many rookies to the training camp.

COTTON EXPORTATION <By The Associated Press * %O%IO, Dec. 26,—The Japanese CHAPTER LXXH Bob Evades the Question Instead of answering my queistion and telling me what John Kendall meant, Bob laughed uneasily, and reminded me that it was time for breakfast, and that our guest would be down and waiting. \Let him wait!\ I told him, \J must know what danger threatens you.\ \No dangei- threatens me, Mar- garet! don't be silly! come down to breakfast. We'll lose our train it you keep me here talking.\ \If you won't tell me, I sliall have to ask Mr. Kendall,\ I said firmly. \You'll do so such thing!\ again lie flushed and looked uncomfortable. \lie simply 'referred to a matter of business.\ \How could a matter of business be unsafe?\ I persisted. \It isn't! John is an alarmist.\ \He is the last man on earth to say such a thing unless there was something in it.\ \I tell you there is nothing! I am going down to breakfast. I forbid your mentioning your silly fears to John, remember!\ Bob's tone was the one I had learn- ed never to combat, although he used it but seldom; so I followed him down stairs and ate my breakfast in sil- ence while Bob and John ke^pt up a running fire of talk and laughter. After they left I dismissed' the matter from my mind, and went about my household duties. They were much heavier, mops' taxing: than when in the apartment, and with the care of the children left me little time for anything else. Bob wanted me to keep a second girl but I told him it was all nonsense. And T really preferred to get along with only Delia—Boh would want me to entertain his friends more frequently if I had -more help. One afternoon when out with the children I met Mrs. Baldwin. She turned and walked with me.. • \I am .so'glad' you are our neigh- bor, Mr. Garrett,\ she said, \I have been rather lonely since we moved out here. Most of the people are so very conservative, so bound • down by their old-faShioned ideas, that it is a real treat to meet people like you and your friend Mr. Kendall. He and your husband are • certainly two lively, entertaining men. Mr. Garrett gets so excited; talks so «ar- nestly that it is a joy to listen to him. I never should • have thought him a real estate man), really one would take him for an artist or. a writer.\ 1 replied inanely. Had Mrs. Bald- win tried she could have said noth- ing more displeasing to me. I had begun to see that I had an almost hopeless task before, me in attempt- ing to make love for me fill iny hus- band's life to the exclusion- of all else; and her speech only made me the more discouraged. \We must have some good times together,\ she continued, \you play bridge, of course?\ \Yes.\ \Suppose we play ' •two nights a •week, once \t your house, and oncfi ;?t miiif. We can have a simple lit- tle supper after we finish, -and—it government has decided to prohibit the exportation of cotton yarns and cotton tissues in order to check the advance or prices. Owing to the shortage of supply against the ever increasing demand, the price of raw cotton has gone up 197 per cent. Tt is alleged that this is in part due also to speculative dealings of cotton yarn brokers, who have taken ad- vantage of the bouyant market and the fast falling supply to deal in futures. The government has decided also to exempt from customs duty cotton yarn and cotton tissue imported from abroad. Several large spinners in Osaka •and elsewhere hav6 ordered cotton yarns from the United States and China and many Japanese cot- ton mills will augment their\ manu- facturing capacity with spindles and other machines imported from the United States.

But I changed my mind and imme- diately agreed. Anything to keep Bob.at home, and away from his New- York friends. • - When I told Bob of the plan, he objected. \Once a week is often enough to make a. fast and tight engagement,\ \But once at each house\ \Every other week at each house is as often as I will agree to play. There will be lots of things I shall want to go to- this winter and'l am not going to be all tied lip with en- gagements.\ - When I told Mrs. Baldwin that we would play once a w«ek instead of twice, she said similingly: \Half a loaf is better than none!\ \I should like to play twice,\ I ex- plained, \but Mr. Garrett has so many engagements he feels it un- wise to agree to play more tlian once a week.\ \So he has engagements too! well we. .will have to console each other,\ she said, and laughed rather bitter- ly; or so it seemed to me. , r I wanted to ask Iier if Mr. Bald- win staved in town often, if she often spent long evenings alone, as I did. But I was proud and hesitated to make a confident of this woman whom I had never met but twice. \Mr. Garrett is a very busy macnl\ I said stiffly, \he has very little time for pleasure,\ yet as I spoke I knew that when he had refused to play bridge that he intended to spend tlie tim'e with the Hoots, and others of: his old crowd. \All work ad no play,\ she quo- ted, then, \don't worry about him my dear Mrs. Garrett!. The men who over-work themselves now-a- days are few and far between.
