(By Associated Fress.)
NEW YORK, June 5.—Cotton opened stendy
•t unchanged prices to an advance of 2 points
—about in Hue with Liverpool cables. Business
livened during the first few minutes and the
feature was heavy buying of July by local
and Liverpool houses, which sent the price of
that position 11 points above yesterday’s clos
ing, while the new crop showed set gains of
some 3 to 6 points. Rumors that prominent
operators were buying July contracts on better
trade demand and talk of excessively high tem-
p. ratnres soethweSt seemed to account for the
advance. Otherwise weather conditions were
considered very favorable, however, and the
market met enough cotton to cause more or
less Irregularity after the first hntf hour.
Trading was less active later in the morn
ing but prices held steady and about 5 to 11
points net higher.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
(By Associated Press.^
NEW ORLEANS, June 5.—Cotton futures
opened steady, 1 point off to 2 points up, com
pared with the last prices of yesterday. Cables
* ere about as due and weather reports were con
flicting. In some quarters good rains in Texas
were reported, which the weather map did not
bear out, and in other quarters It was said that
some long buying had been caused by reports of
hot winds in the West. Rumors of manipula
tion in the summer months and of operations
looking toward the driving to cover of the short
interest in the new crop months were also cir
culated. Supplies of contracts were slender and
at the end of the first half hour of these prices
were 5 to 8 points over yesterday’s close.
At the middle of the morning the market
was5 to 9 points up. Enough fresh short sell
ing came out this rise to check temporarily the
upward tendency, although no real selling pres
sure developed. Crop reports weer extremely
favorable, but not stimulate Selling, which
caused bulls to increase their talk of an over
sold market. The forecast promised fair
weather in the eastern half of the belt and
cloudy and unsettled weather in the western
half, which was called favorable. At noon
prices were 7 to 12 points over yesterday’s
last quotations.

Fleshy steer* and good butcher cows in active
demand. Receipts this week have been very
irregular and mixed and not enough good
butcher cows to supply the demand. Both me
dium steers and cows have been in better sup
ply and have in most cases met with ready sale,
for reason of the scarcity in the better class.
Prices have varied from %c lower on common
kinds to u possible Vic higher on this week’s
tops which were hardly good enough to be
considered an average top. Commission men are
expecting light receipts for the Incoming week
with a steady market.
. Several bunches of Tennessee sheep and

prices, the quality of lambs being very good.

COTTON MARKET OPINION8. ~
Finley Barrett & Co.: Sell new crop on all

present.
Sternberger Sinn & Co.: We cannot see any
big movement in sight one way or the other.
HAYWARD A CLARK COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, La., June 5.—Financial or
gans take a very unfavorable view of the finan
cial situation and outlook both in this country
and abroad. English consols broke 5-16 today.
Political news is also worse. London says that,
contrary to hopes, the cabinet change in Bul
garia turns out to be against peace prospects.
The weather map presents very favorable
conditions. Warm night temperatures; fair tn
the south central belt; partly cloudy else
where. Nice rains in west Texas; showers in
parts of Oklahoma, Arkansas, Alabama and
the Atlantic. Indications are for more show
ers; cooler in the western states; Arkansas,
Tennessee, north Louisiana, north Mississippi,
Alabama and the Atlantics and developments are
for more general rain over Sunday.
Liverpool was better than due, particularly on
new crops, which result must be attributed to
-he low bureau report stimulating further buy
ing by consumers of new' crop hedges.
Liverpool spots 4 higher, sales 10,000. We
opened at about unchanged prices, but sellers
were scarce in consequence of indications during
the past three daye of an intention on the
part of certain operators in New York to force
the market on technical conditions. Prices here
quickly rallied five points on very little buy
ing. One of our most reliable correspondents
writes from Georgia that they do not agree
with the government condition report for that
state. The reports of high temperatures, hot
winds, etc., in Texas and Oklahoma circulated
today are absolutely without foundation. Gov-
ernment records show an average for Texas of
only 92, Oklahoma 94 and not one station
with 100 degrees, whereas in the big crop year
temperatures were 100 and above. The Into
sight for the week looks around 15,000, against
40,476 last year, and we compare with milt
takings of 242,000 for this week last year.

Fall Irish Potatoes
HE planting of the fall crop of
Irish potatoes Is of far more
importance than the spring
crop for many reasons; in the first
place, usually the farmer has more
time to prepare, and plant and
work this crop during the months
of July, August and September,-
than he has for the spring crop.
Usually it is more convenient to
have a suitable place where grain
has been harvested, or some other
rich spot that has not been planted
that would be suitable for the grow
ing of these potatoes.
They require much less work
than the spring crop, and can be
harvested in the early part of No
vember and will keep perfectly un
til the following July, when it is
the proper time to plant again. This
cannot be said of the spring pota
toes, and if more people would raise
fall potatoes, they w-ould be used
much more freely and largely by
the average family, ac it would be
much more saving for them to keep
them, and they would come in when
the average family would not have
other vegetables to take their place,
and if for no other reason than to
avoid being bothered with bugs
this crop should be planted.
During the cool nights of Sep
tember and October the w’eather is
not favorable to the propagation of,
potato bugs, therefore you are
never bothered with these pests. In
nine cases out of ten, the yield is
larger than from the spring crop,
and a sounder, better keeping pota
to is always produced. As a rule
for seed purposes where the. have
been properly kept you can always
get $3.00 per bushel for seed pur
poses.
It is impossible to always secure a perfect stand from spring grown
seed as they do not have time to dry out and sprout, ready for planting
in July, therefore, there is always a demand for fall grown potatoes for
seed. Where they have been properly kept a perfect stand can be secured,
and they usually have more eyes than spring potatoes, therefore two bushels
less per acre are required for planting purposes, eight bushels being suffi
cient per acre.
If you expect to grow a fall crop the land should he thoroughly plowed
during the month of June and kept harrowed several times before the “tn®
of planting, which should be any time after the 15th of July to the loth
of August. The rows should be laid off three feet apart, with fo ur ln ® 17
scooter, and two Johnston wings, a deep narrow furrow should be made
and a narrow two inch scooter should be run through this furrow to thor
oughly mix it with the soil. Then the potatoes are ready to drop. Each
piece should be cut with two good eyes and no more should be cut a,t a
time than can he used or planted quickly. A small amount of airslack lime
should be sprinkled over the potatoes after being cut, this will heal them
and keep from losing their strength by bleeding.
They should be dropped about 10 inches apart with the eyes down,
and with a gentle press of the foot the potato should be sunk in the moist
dirt, immediately afterwards, they should be covered with two furrows to
each row. If planted in this way a perfect stand will be secured as they
will unite with the moisture, and germination will start almost immediately,
otherwise, they will not start to germinate until after a heavy rain has
settled the ground around the eye. . , „
A weeder or light harrow should be run over the ground twice before
they come up, this will help them to germinate quickly and keep up circu
lation of moisture. At the first plowing after they are up, at least 600 to
1,000 pounds of fertilizer should be put in the furrow around the potatoes,
a few days after this they should have one good hoeing, and three plowings
with scooter, and scrape or cultivator and with one other hoeing b®iti§
careful to cultivate shallow or nearly on the level at all times, makes this
a very easy crop to produce. After the first heavy frost, the potatoes are
ready to dig four or five days later. .
Raising a fall crop of potatoes is undoubtedly the cheapest and the
most profitable thing that any farmer can possibly plant on his place.
The timt has come when more attention than ever is being paid to
The time has come when one gets in the habit of growing this particular
crop they will continue to grow them. From two to three hundred bushels
per acre can easily be made on good land, and no crop can be so easily
made, as this, provided, one will be careful about planting as these instruc
tions have outlined.
Try a few ; this year. You wl11
find it profitable and easy to do.
Yours very U’uly,
QUESTIONS ASKED AND ANSWERED.
QUESTION.
Milner,Ga.
I have got so much valuable
information through your columns
of The Atlanta Journal, and if it
were not for your articles in re
gard to poultry and live stock I
don't believe The Journal would
find its way into so many south
ern homes as it now does. I al
ways look for your articles first,
and enjoy reading them, and I hope
some day that the people of the
south will learn that thorough
bred stock of all lines will pay a
much better profit than mere
scrubs do, to say nothing of the
pleasure one has while attending
to something that he likes and
prizes highly above just the com
mon, happy go along kind that
hardly will pay for the room on
the farm where there is no profit
at all.
I will give my experience with
some S. C. Rhode Island Red pul
lets which were hardly a year old
in March. I kept a record of eggs
gathered. I only had twenty-seven
pullets in all, and five of these
were set during March, and I gath
ered 472 eggs from the remaining
twenty-two. How is this for that
many, and they not a year old?
I don’t believe that a flock twice
as large as mine of the co.mmon
old speckled type would have done
so well.
Please answer the following, and
describe a standard S. C. R. I. Red
pullet, also a cockerel. Do you
think it would do any harm to set
eggs in June and July just to have
a few chickens to eat, or would
you think best not to do so?
L. L. W.
ANSWER.
Your letter Is of. much interest
and shows what a person can do
with a few chickens if they prop
erly attend to them, and the ones
who are today making a profit out
of chickens are the ones who are
satisfied with a few well cared for
that give results rather than keep
ing a large lot of inferior birds.
The standard color for R. I. Red
male birds should be a rich, bril
liant red, with a greenish black
tail. The wing feathers should
show black also. The penciling
should be even or uniform in the
stiff feathers in the wing, and it
should show more black than red.
This black should be folded on the
under side when the wing is closed.
The breast, back and body should
all be one uniform shade of color
and free from any smut or slate.
The pullets should be the same
shade of color, only they shpw
some black ticking in the neck,
but this is objectionable in the
males.
It is all right to hatch chickens
in June and July, in fact, every
month in the year, provided they
are kept free from insects and
general conditions made suitable to
their wants.
QUESTION.
Harrison, Ga.
Knowing y#rr experience in the
.poultry biLifl^rcs, I write you for
a bit of infc/mation concerning get
ting rid 98 fleas where they are
bother!njj my chickens. We have
recently purchased and moved to a
place lOere the party residing be
fore us had lots of dogs and, of
course, the place is full of fleas. I
think they are what we call the
Texas fleas. Will you please give me
a remedy to get rid of same? We
have no cats or dogs and think we
might exterminate these pests some
way.
Any information will be gladly
received and very much appreciated.
J. C. W., JR.
ANSWER.
The proper and only way to rid
your place of fleas is by the free use
of ordinary salt or salty water
sprayed or sprinkled in the place
where fleas inhabit. If under the
house or in the poultry house is
dusty or dry, plajn salt should be
sprinkled freely all around, and if
it does not do the work thorough
ly the first time repeat it again
in a few weeks. Th e same applies
to a hou§e where the floor has
cracks in it or where fleas have in
fested the premises. The salt will
get down in th e cracks and eventu
ally kill them. Salt which causes
dampness is fatal to fleas and they
cannot propigate where any damp
ness prevails.
The chickens that are now infest
ed with fleas should be caught
every one separately and their heads
should be rubbed with salty grease.
This will kill the fleas, but will do
no good to get them off of the
chickens unles you make a thor
ough job of it and kill the fleas
where ’ they breed and inhabit.
QUESTION.
Will you please tell me the trou
ble with my little chickens, and
what to do for them. They open
their mouths just like they are
gaping. Then they will scratch the
side of their mouth. They do this
way all during the day. They are
four to six weeks old. They eat and
drink hearty until about a day be
fore they die. They are free from
lice and mites. They have free
range. I feed on corn meal and
wheat bran and little chick feed. I
am a reader of The Semi-Weekly
Journal. I carefully cut out your
directions and save them, but have
never seen anything in the paper
like my chickens have. I have the
Barred Plymouth Rocks. Any in
formation you can give will be ap
preciated. MRS. J. M. D.
Statttam, Ga.
ANSWER.
Just so long as you feed soft
feed to little chickens before they
are ten days old you will have trou
ble wth them. Your little chickens
have gapeworms. One-half teaspoon
ful of turpentine mixed with one
pint of corn meal dough fed once
a day on a plank will relieve them
of these worms. They should have
all of their feed either on a plank
or in troughs. They pick up the
gapeworms from the ground and eat
them. Lime should be sprinkled
around the premises, and use some
permanganate of potash in the
drinking water, just enough to make
the water a medium pink.

QUESTION.
Cedartown, Ga.. I have been
raising leghorns for eggs for home
use three or four years, only keep
about twenty-five hens.
I woudl like to have your opinion
on Cornish Indian Games as to how
they will lay compared with leg
horns. If they are about as good
layers think I’ll raise some. Would
like to hear from you Soon.
Thanking you in advance for
same, I am, ,
A. C. B.
ANSWER.
Cornish Indian Games are nothing
like as good layers as leghorns.
They are a table chicken and are
inclined to get too fat. Pullets of
the White Cornish Games are good
layers the first year, but will not

QUESTION.
Dewey Rose, Ga.
I wish to ask a few questions
concerning; my fowls. I have about
thirty-five hens and only two of
them are laying. They are all fat
and look well. They pick and
feather themselves continually like
they were lousy, but I examined
them and they are clear of any
vermin whatever. Please tell me
the trouble, through The Journal,
and the reason they do not lay.
J. L. R.
v
ANSWER.
If your hens are not laying now
there is something wrong either
with the chickens or the way you
are attending to them. Make them
take plenty of exercise in a scratch
ing pen where their grain feed should
be thrown, and give them a variety
of feed.
It is possible that they are In
fested with mites, which are very
small and can not be seen unless
by a close observer. Paint the
roosts with either kerosene oil or
Gasco (which can be had of the
Atlanta Gas Co.) If you will ex
amine them closely and if It is
mites, which are not unusually bad
at this season of the year, you will
find under the roost board, especial
ly where they rest against the wall,
some of these little insects. If they
continuallj’ feather themselves you
may know that they are Infested
either with lice or mites. If you
do riot find any it would be a good
idea to dip your chickens in a solu
tion of one of the dips advertised
in The Journal the first pretty warm
day.
