\Recent investigations in the use of cotton inwar shows that a
machine gun in operation will use up a 500 ib. bale of cotton in
three minutes; a 15 inch gun does away with 500 lbs. with each
shot fired; the Red Cross needs 20,000 bales a year for absorbent
dressings alone. 100,000 bales are used in the wings of our war,
airplanes, and one change of apparel for all the troops would re-
quire more than a million bales.
The woai>tder is we can get cotton at all, and are not surprised
that prices are so high, Raw cotton is now between four and five
times the price before the war. With the daily Increasing army
in: the U. S. the tendency, is towards still higher prices in all cot-
