i THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, MARCH 28, 1913. MARKET REPORTS NEW YORK, March 27.—Higher Liverpool ca bles and reports of .continued bad weather in the south and apprehension of floods in the Mississippi valley caused an advance of five to nine points at the opening of the cotton mar ket today. Realizing held the advance in check, and after showing net gains five to ten points there was a slight reaction, but selling was not ag gressive and laok of advices from the south owing to wire trouble, the market held steady. Prospects of fair weather In the cotton bolt ''‘weed profit taking by room traders and some short selling |n the early afternoon and the market lost all its advance.

CARPENTER & CO-’S COTTON LETTER NEW YORK, March 27.—Liverpool was some 3 points better than due and buying in this market has been of very good character, coming mostly from larger spot interests. Rome short covering said to be for western account. Liter* pool said to be a buyer. All of which is based on unfavorable weatner in western belt and predictions of higher waters over the Missis sippi valley, which, it is feared, will cause overflows which Would do considerable damage. There is a disposition on the part o fa good many ring traders to sell, but they hesitate in the absence of news owing to the serious wire troubles. There nas been some selling of March and buying of May by prominent interests, also good buying ot October. The selling has been general with ihe larger sales Coming from local speculators. There has been nothing of Inter est iu the spot situation. HAYWARD & CLARKS’ COTTON LETTER. NEW ORLEANS, March 27.—Weather Condi tions overnight were better than expected. There was practicaly no rain in the western half of the belt and while it was general throughout the eastern half, the heaviest rainfall was con fined to portions of north Mississippi, Alabama. Georgia and Tennesee. Fair weather prevails over the entire western half this morning. Tem peratures fell as low as 32 at San Antonio, but were 38 minimum in southern Texas. Indications are for fair and wurmer weather in western states; clearings colder in central and eastern states, preceded by rain and snow in the Atlantic*. The cold snap undoubtedly caught some cotton in. south Texas, but th(* fact that it was not accompanied or preceded by rain and was quickly fololwcd by warmer weather must be taken .into consideration. Liverpool was about 8 points beter than due on futures and spdts were 12 points higher, with sales of 8,000 bales. Consols % up; sil ver % up: French rentes, 12% better. Ou market opened about 4 points higher and held very steady, although there was a good deal of selling ou prospects of good weather and unfavorable weekly statistics tomorrow. The market is waiting for positive news about the cold weatner damage in south Texas. Spots reported quiet, but firm, onl ya sinaK demand. The heavy loss of property by the floods in the middle states is likely to be felt by the trade and must be considered in the price question. Into sight for week looks around 144,000, against 249,000 last year. We compare with 365,000 spinners’ takings for this week last year. Exports appear to be about 60,000 less than last, year.

R ECENTLY the pigeon fad as struck the south, and there are hundreds of peo ple now keeping plgeona that have never had them before. In the city where space Is limited it Is a capital idea, a person can provide a small space where a large number of pigeons can be kept and raised with less care than can be said of poultry or many other things. There Is one good thing about pigeons. They set and raise their own young, and If a, good house la furnished them and plenty feed, especially a variety and of the proper kind Is supplied to pigeons they will convert It into squabs with less work than in producing any other of the feathered tribe. One of the great mistakes that most people make in keeping pigeons Is that they undertake to keep too many birds in a small space, and are not positive that every bird in the buldlng is properly mated. No odd birds should ever be allowed In any breeding apartment where your pigeons are working and raising the young as one odd, bird will certainly cause a lot \rt trouble and will often keep many pairs from producing a pair of squabs each month which they would do if it were not for an odd or fussy bird in the lofts. Pigeons when once mated are usually true to each other and stay with their mate unless bothered or tempted too much as they, like people, will yield to temptation, and while one is setting if there is .i ~ ... , an odd bird that is persistent sometimes they will break up the happiness of a pair during the ab- ^ e th ma * 8 ’ one should be very careful and never allow any brds in the breeding room except those that they know positively are mated and ready for work. ItTs surprising how many squabs a person can raise on a small f ,f re . even half wa Y attended to. The most essential riungs m tpe keeping of pigeons is that they-should be kept in dry, well ventilated houses and a fly should be provided where they can aSt out and sun themselves during nice weather. Besides It is es- f® n ’ al . ‘ hat * hey should have a small fly to get the proper exercise In to keep them strong and healthy as It is their nature to fly ana take exercise and naturally they and their offspring will be stronger if they have a sufficient amount of this. It is also essential that pigeons should be fed on a plank floor or in a trough. It Is not a good idea to feed them on tne ground, especally in a small fly as they are sure to pick up more or less filth ° r c ° n * anal ® atIon lf this is done. Usually a shelf 2 to 3 feet wide and 6 to 8 feet long with a one-inch strip around the edge of It makes a splendid place out in the open fly to feed your pigeons on The t ^ e 1 * UOt ?. r , l dg ® keeps the feed from tailing off on the ground and the shelf will be ket dry and much^feed saved and utilized that would go to waste If fed directly on the earth. The feed should con sist of wheat, kaffer corn, cracked corn in limited quantities, peas and a sn } aI ! am °unt of hemp. Oats are not good for pigeons ana when u l ar „ gs c aus more or less trouble. Peas are possibly the best food that can be had for pigeons, next to wheat. Pigeons also enjoy green food, and should he kept well supplied with salt at all times. One of the best methods of supplying this salt is by mixing in a pail or can one part salt, one part lime and three parts clay made into a stiff paste. When dry this can be turned out on the floor and will always be hard in the shODe of a salt brick. It is sur- p ,, ns l ho 7 Pigeons will enjoy eating this and it seems to keep them In the best; health and enables them to digest their food as the salt wUl make them, drink lots of water which is one of the most impor tant things In the keeping of all kinds of live stock and poultry. The water should be clean and given fresh every day. The pigeons should have a large tub or vessel of some kind to take thler dally hath in.
