MARKET REPORTS
(By Associated Press.)
NEW OUK, May 5.—Cotton opened barely
steady at a decline of 2 to S points on lower
Liverpool cables, reports of g\>od rains In
the southwest and favorable private crop ac-
• counts. There’ was a good deal of profit tak
ing by recent sellers, however, and the market
rallied 2 or 3 points during the early trading.
In the absence of any aggressive support, the
market remained more or less unsettled.
Reports that some of the Fall river mills
would close down indefinitely beginning with
next Monday started rather a more aggressive
selling movement during the middle of the
morning. Prices broke to a net loss of from
eight to ten points in consequence, but the de
cline attracted considerable profit-taking bv
recent sellers and the market was quiet later
with prices at midday about six to seven points
net lower.
The market rallied to within two or three
points o Saturday's close at noon on covering of
shorts and a firmer turn in New Orleans, but
general business remained very quiet and prices
Inter eased off again to a net loss of six or
seven points.

HEYWARD & CLEARKS COTTON LETTER.
NEW ORLEANS. May 5.—Political news over
Sunday were of such composition as to make It
difficult to form a judgmeit. While Montene
gro consented to evacuate Scutari, there are
persistent rumors of Austria and Italy trying to
gain control of Albania, thereby creating a
new difficulty. English consols this morning
higher to 74. 13-16, but French rentes are
20 dowu to $5.22Vis. Liverpool was poor with
futures five to seven down; spots six down,
sales 8,000 bales. Weather developments over
Sunday favorable. General rains over western
half of the belt and precipitation was heavy
over entire northern half of Texas and Okla
homa.
There was no cold weather, on the controry,
temperatres were higher in the lower and mid
dle sections. Indications, sire fox’ ruins to move
lover several eastern states in the next three
days. It will be cooler in the northwestern
Quarter, but not enough tod do harm. New
York wired that tile “Iron works Mills’ Borden;’
Borden, the largest at Fall River expected to go
on short time at end this week and that others
will follow. Our market dropped about ten
points in the early trading, but ruled steady
at the decline. There was no real pressure
to sell. The favorable rains with prospects of
needed rains in the near future in the eastern
states was the principal cause of the easiness.

B. W. SNOW’S GRAIN REPORT
CHICAGO, May 5.—Snows’ May 1 crop report
shows an abandoned winter wheat acreage of
2.9 per cent, amounting to 949,000 acres. This
is the smallest abandoned acreage ever re
ported and on the basis of area reported seeded
last fall leaves for harvest this year 31,438,000
acres, or the second largest acreage ever grown.
1 lie average condition of the crop is reported
at 90.5, a decline of about 1 point during April,
mi to a lowering of condition in the Ohio
valley, Michigan and California. Upon the
present basis of figuring the government re
port the present situation would be token as
forecasting a crop of about 516,000,000 bushels.
There is deficiency of both current and ac
cumulated moisture in Texas, Oklahoma and
Kansas, but up to the present time such rains
as have been received have been timely and no
crop damage has occurred. Spring wheat seed
ing was not completed on May 1, but local
agents are of the opinion that the final area
wlll.be smaller than that of last year by about
a million acres with the greater part of the
loss in North Dakota.

I FOR one can see what a change
has been brought about in
eight or ten years and the pub
lic spirit of the people of Atlanta
and the ones who have large in
vestments and are financially in
terested in the future prosperity
of our country should not allow
this state of affairs to exist, hut
should take up this work and get
it started again and keep it up
the same as is done in nearly
every city the size of Atlanta. The
state fair held at Dallas, Tex.,
Shreveport, La.,. Columbia, S. C.,
Nashviile, Tenn., Richmond, Va.,
Louisville, Ky., and many other
eastern and western cities show
that these exhibitions can be and
are successfully and profitably
conducted, and there is no reason
why they should not be annually
conducted in Atlanta.
Aside from the financial welfare
it is . to the country it makes peo
ple work and keeps money in cir
culation that no other means will
be the cause of this w-ork being
done. It is something the country
needs and should he looked after
as much so as most any other
public interest that the country
should take an interest in.
The state fair conducted at Ma
con during the past few years has
brought about a big change in this
city. Macon is growing by leaps
and bounds. Hotel facilities have
been much improved. Hundreds
of other improvements have been
noticeable. Many people have been
attracted there by her annual fairs.
It is a wise thing for Macon and a
profitable investment that the people in this section saw when they landed
the state fair in their community, and unless one had particularly noticed
the direct benefits, it has brought to this town they would little dream
of what had been accomplished and had really been brought out by the
annual fairs as conducted at Macon.
This state is large enough and a good annual exhibition should not
only be conducted at Macon, but Atlanta and Savannah every year. They
should be made permanent, and the state could not do a better work or
appropriate any money that would be of more lasting benefit to the
country than to adopt similar legislations to what Alabama has and have
a certain amount of money set aside from each section as Alabama has to
help conduct these public enterprises. Montgomery, Birmingham, Mobile,
as well as every county in the state of Alabama has a stipulated state ap
propriation set aside from a small per cent of the tax income to be spent
or used in conducting these public exhibitions. It has worked wonders in
Alabama and today Alabama is becoming undoubtedly one of the livest
and most prosperous agricultural states in the entire south. If it has
been a good thing for Alabama and is encouraging the agricultural inter
ests of her state, there is no reason why it should not be for Georgia, if
some live legislator would look into how this legislation has been brought
about in Alabama and apply the same laws in Georgia the agricultural
interests as well as many other lines of industry would certainly be
helped in this state.
We all know that our future prosperity in every line depends alto
gether on the progress and success of our farming operations, and any
thing that can be done to encourage or help the agricultural interest of
any state it is sure to help every little town as well as the big cities to
prosper. Georgia’s opportunities and advantages are not utilized as they
should be from an agricultural and live . tock standpoint, and there is
much room for improvement. We should not boast of and feel that our
country is what it should be until we can stop some of the millions of dol
lars that are brought into our state by cotton from getting away from us
for food products. If we did not have the natural advantages to produce
these and it could not be done it would he a different proposition, but just
so long as we spend more money for food products than our staple crop
brings into this state; just so long as this is continued we cannot
ever hope to prosper as we should, and nothing will faring about the en
couragement of diversified crops and the production of more food products,
live stoclj and poultry than the annual exhibitions in the country which
will bring about a rivalry that will
make people work and produce these — ,
things that they would never think J, - , hJtir , f
of doinr so now.

QUESTION.
P'ayetteville, Ga. My chickens
seem to have a peculiar disease,
similar to the sore head, but it
seems to be in their eyes.1 They
swell up and atter fors there
and they finally close. I thought
it was bursted out but later the
swelling goes away leaving the
matter still in the eye. I have
lost one and »have three more the
same way. They are White leg
horns, and* I feed them good clean
food and have them in a fairly
close house but not as close as
your houses, with the fronts open.
Any information and anything you
may help me out will be greatly
appreciated. M. L. S.
ANSWER.
Your chickens have what is
known as roup, and is one of the
most dreaded diseases we have to
contend with in the south. W T hen
it once appears in a flock it will
usually contaminate the entire
flock unless steps are taken at once
to stamp it out. »
You should separate all of the
affected chickens or allow’ them to
stay in the quarters that they
are now in. dnd take the w*ell ones
to a new house or new' quarters
and use some good roup cure or
permanganate of potash in the drink
ing water regularly and feed on
whole grain, and a house to roost in
that has no draughts or dampness
in itfl Roup generally appears
among immature late hatched birds
and will effect the earlier hatched
ones if not checked. It is not a
good idea to breed from any birds
that h^ive recently had roup as it
will weaken the constitutions of
the young produced from them.
QUESTION:
Atlanta, Ga.
I read your comments daily and
am very much interested in same.
I wish to ask a few’ questions. I
have lots of chickens—^-namely
twenty “Sicilian Buttercups” di
rectly from imported stock which
I raised from eggs shipped a long
way. Also have a flockeach of
Silver Camfrines and Golden Cam-
pines. I do not care to sell stock
or eggs this season. What I wish
to know is will there be a big de
mand for them in the south? I find
that they are equal to the Whit;e
Leghorns as layers, and are much
more easily adapted to confinement.
I have over $400.00 invested there
fore will appreciate your advice. I
wish to *show them this fall for
first time. Are many prizes offer
ed in the Atlanta shows for either
breed? What are the entrance
fees? I also breed White Orping
tons. Please answer in the At
lanta Daily at your earliest con
venience.
• MRS. W. W.
ANSWER:
There was a class for Butter
cups, also Silver and Golden Cam-
pines at the Southern International
show, and we had a ''good display
of each of these. The Campines
are becoming very popular. Will
be glad to have you make a good
display at the Southern Internation
al show, which will be conducted
the first week in December of this
year. If you have eggs to sell by
advertising them in The Journal
there are a number of people in
the south who would patronize you.
QUESTION.
Smithville, Ga.
I desire information concerning a
treatment of my dog. He appears,
or in fact I know is wormy. Kindly
furnish me with best information
as just how and what *to give
him. J have already dosed him with
copperas, but still he has the
worms and will not get fat. He is
a very fine dog, about one year
old and I value him very highly.
Any information will be greatly
appreciated.
E. C. S.
ANSWER.
If you will give the dog Glover's
Vermifuge it will relieve him of
the worms quicker than anything
you can give. This can be had of
any first class drug store at 50
cents per bottle.
QUESTION.
Fitzgerald, Ga.
Would you kindly tell me the best
way to pick chickens without using-
hot water?
J. R.
ANSWER.
Usually the best way to pick or
dress chickens is to suspend a
chicken by tieing its legs together
and hang its head down on a suit
able pole or place mode for this
purpose, and with a regular poultry
killing knife the point of the blade
should be trust just in the lower
corner of the eye through to the
brain and immediately afterwards
one cut in the roof of the mouth
not only sever the nerve cords but
loosen the blood veins and in a few
seconds the feathers can be re
moved quickly, as every feather wil 1
loosen and can be removed much
quicker than if they had been
scalded. A chicken dresses much
nicer in this way and it is so much
less trouble. Nearly all ducks and
chickens in large dressing estab
lishments are killed in this manner.
In the first place the skin is not so
easily broken when chickens are
dry picked, and furthermore it does
not toughen or partially cook the
skin on the chicken as hot w’ater
will do. A chicken will keep bet
ter an dwill cook much nicer and is
better in every may when they are
picked in this manner. A regular
killing knife cap be had for fifty
cents of Duhn Machinery, company,
Atlanta, Ga.
QUESTION.
Graceville. Fla.
I see some suggestions in your
paper on the culture of dogs. I have
a pair of bull pups, very well bred.
They are two months old. They grew
off fast when young. Now they are
puny and eat dirt. I feed them on
beef liver and scraps, boiled veg
etables and sweet potatoes. Will
you please advise me by return
mail how I may feed and doctor
my pups to get them healthy and
make them quit eating dirt?
Thanking you in advance for your
information, I am, H. B.
ANSWER,
The pups should have some worm
medicine, as all pups have mor,e or
less worms in them. Glover’s; or
Spratt’s Vermifuge will relieve them
of the worms, and will stop t'hem
from eating dirt when the worms

QUESTION.
Howell Ga., Please write me at
your earliest convenience what to do
to get rid of lice on chickens. Is it
well to paint the roost poles with coal
tar? Thanking you in advance, I am,
MRS. L. A. C.
ANSWER.
The best way to get rid of lice is to
dip your chickens in a solution of one
part of water to fifty parts of Bee
Dee Dip. This should be done during
the middle of a warm day. Painting
the roost with a thin solution of gas
tar will kill mites, but does not kill
lice on chickens.
pass. Their appetites are abnor
mal, which causes this trouble.
The best thing to give pups is
pearl grits (cooked the same as you
would for table use), with sweet
milk poured over* them while hot.
Beef soup thickened with either
corn meal or pearl grits is also
good. I don’t think it a good idea
to give beef liver or beef scraps,
especially in large quantities, to*
young pups. The vegetables are all
right, but should have some corn
bread with them, and not too greasy.

QUESTION.
What shall I do to get rid of
mites? My Ancona pullet had a
hard substance on the point of her
tongue. What is the cause and
what is the remedy? How can one
tell the male from females in guinea
fowls? J. A.
ANSWER.
The best way to get rid of mites
is to paint your roost with Gasco
Spray, a product manufactured by/
the Atlanta Gas Light company;
and sold at 60 cents per gallon. This
will certainly kill them and run the
insects off of the birds. The nests
should bo painted inside with this
same preparation, but plenty nest
material should be put on top of it
to keep from soiling the eggs. How
ever, it is a th-in preparation and
dries very quickly. The roost
should be painted early in the morn
ing so as to dry good before the
birds go to roost at night, to keep
from soiling them.

QUESTION.
Zebulon, Ga.
I have some turkeys that have
some kind of humor. She has pick
ed her legs raw. If you can tell me
the trouble and remedy I will be very
glad. She picks her knees. Please
let me hear from you at once.
W. T. G.
ANSWER.
If you will apply a mixture of one
pint of raw linseed oil and one ounce
of carbolic acid to which has been
added a little sulphur to the affected
parts it will cure the turkey and stop
her from picking her legs.
