THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, JUNE 6, 1913. (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 YORK COTTON.

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. NEW ORLEANS COTTON. The lollowlng were the ruling prices in the xrhange today: Tone steady; middling 2 3-16c, steady.

Thompson Towle & Co.: We think purchases on all declines will be best policy for the 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.

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. Dawson, Ga. Will you please tell me where I can obtain the dry mash mixture recom mended by you as a result of the Mountain Grove experiment of Octo ber 31? J know that you have given the proportions in the mixture, but we can’t get all of the ingredients here. MRS. W. H. G. ANSWER. If you can not get all of the in gredients used in the mixture for feeding at the Missouri Laying Com petition, use as many of them as you can secure conveniently.

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 produce as many eggs as leghorns. PERSONAL WIDOW, 39, worth $50,060, would marry.

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.
