NEW YORK. June 23.—Cotton opened steady
at a decline of four to six points in response to
lower Liverpool cables, a favorilble view of
weather conditions 9ver Sunday and renewed
realizing by old longs. The opening prices re-
•flected a reaction of some thirty .to thirty-five
points from the high levels of last week, how
ever, and the market met a good deal of buy
ing by recen^ sellers for a turn, or by people
who had been waiting for a setback oil which
,to secure a position on the bull side. Trices
steadied consequently and the market rallied three
or four points from the lowest during the early
trading.
After selling off to a net loss of 7 to 10
joints under continued realizing and easy Liv
erpool cables the market st-*sd*ed again on
.covering with prices showing rallies of 5 or 0
* w dnts at midday. Estimated receipts today
4,000 bales.
• During the afternoon demand seemed to
isxwiden and fluctuations were rather yrcgtilar
with the active months ruling about 4 to 7
points net down.

* NEW ORLEANS COTTON
■ (By Associated Press.)
M%V ORLEANS, June 23.—Cotton futures
opened steady at a decline of 5 to S points
on poor cables and a favorable weather map.
The official reports noted rain in Arkansas,
where it was needed, and at scattered points in
the eastern belt. Following the initial decline
there was a recovery on fresh buying for long
account and July went 5 points over Saturday’s
close,-while the new crops went within 2 points
of that level. The upward movement was not
well maintained. The forecast of fair weather,
except for showers in Virginia and the Caro-
linas, was called bearish and the selling that
followed it put prices of the new crops 8 to 9
points under Saturday’s final figures. .
Toward the middle of the morning offerings
of the new crop months increased as the result
of the rumor that a private crop reporting
bureau was out with condition figures of 83.2
per cent against its own last figures of 80.7.
The new crops went 32 points under Saturday’s
close. July was inactive aud did ndt follow
the decline. Shorts were quick to take profits
and their purchases, combined with moderate
fresh long buying, checked the downward move
ment and brought about a recovery. At noon
July stood 1 point under Saturday’s close
while the most active new crop months were
■ 7 under.

COTTON MARKET OPINIONS
Hayden, Stone & Co.: Sentiment is now
very conservative and it will require lower
prices to bring about aggressive buying.
Logan A Bryan: Favor moderate purchases on
further recessions.
Miller & Co.: ThiDb the bears have again
sold themselves into a* trap.
HAYWARD A CLARK’S COTTON LETTER.
NEW ORLEANS, June 23.—Weather condi
tions continued favorable over Sunday with a
nice rainfall in the Atlantics. Some good scat
tered showers in the central states and west
Texas; temperatures normal; mo excesses,
warm night, indications art for partly cloudy
to fair and warm weather; some scattered
showers.
Washington predicts a week of fair, warm
weather—just as needed. Liverpool is poor in
all departments, futures about two lower than
due—spots five down; sales only 6,000 bales. Po
litical news continues unfavorable and the re
peated disappointments at the failure to arrive
at peace is bound to show itself in a further de-
dression.
The Press reports a congestion of old crop,
Egyptian cotton in the warehouses in Alexandria
with an apparent falling off in the demand. A
feature of the spinning situation, especially in
America, is the dullness in fine yarns.
Consols unchanged; silver % down; rentes ten
down. The following report from Canton, Miss.,
shows the active fight made against the boll
weevil. The report says that $250 were dis
tributed in prizes; 450,000 weevils were brought
In, representing almost one-tentb of tbe weevils
caught in the county. The market opened
about seven lower and weakened steadily. De
cember selling to 11.45 in the second hour. New
York reported some influential selling. Con
sumption prospects affected by the unfavorable
political and financial situation is the principal
bearish argument.
NEW YORK COTTON LETTER
NEW YORK, June 23.—The volume of trade
today was only moderate, the buying and sell
ing was pretty evenly divided. There was sell
ing by the Wall street interests who were
prominent on that sidp on Saturday, but a
good scattered demand for contracts was found
on the slight decline. Liverpool war a buyer
and some of tbe Saturday seilers covered.
IVeather continues very favorable and local sen
timent favors a further decline.—Anderson.

COMMERCIAL-APPEAL'S CROP REPORT
MEMPHIS, Tenn., June 23.—Commercial-Ap
peal’s crop summary: »
The weather of the past week was very
favorable for the growth of cotton over en
tire belt. Temperatures were high, with good
showers in west and clear skies in the remain
der of the belt—just the kind of weather
needed. The plant made good progress, al Ithe
most its energies were occupied in overcoming
the check placed upon it by the cool weather
of the previous week and for this reason its
actual advancement was more real than appar
ent. As a result of the cool weather the
plant over the entire belt Is a bit small, al
though probably slightly larger than last year,
but it is making a bushy growth and shows
the health that accompanies a good taproot and
favorable soil conditions. Good rain in Texas
and portions of Oklahoma supplied the one
thing needed in these states for the best growth
cf the plant. The excellent cultivation that
has been a pronounced characteristic of the
crop all season waa maintained throughout the
week and soil Is perhaps better worked than
ever before at this season. The rains and the
fact that farmers were in the wheat harvest
allowed some grass to gain, headway in por
tions of Texas, but tbe situation is one that
a few days* work will soon cure. The other
western states, the central valley, Alabama
aud nearly all of Georgia, are nearly 100 per
cent clean, with soil in excellent condition.
In the Carolinas and a small portion of Georgia
a few days more of warm, open weather are
needed to further cultivation and the growth
of the plant. Arkansas and the central val
ley are beginning to need rain, but no material
damage will result should dry weather contin
ue for another week. The one complaint re
ported was of boll weevil in Mississippi and
Louisiana and isolated sections of Texas and
Arkansas. There is a big crop of the pest in
Mississippi and Louisiana, but farmers are fight
ing them under the direction of government
experts and are confident that in most locali
ties they have them whipped.

^ODAY this is probably one ot
the biggest questions con
fronting the farmer and the
producer, Tiiat Is, the one of
marketing their products and al
iening the middleman who how
gets such ft big per cent of the In
terne from these products until
many producers are much dissatis
fied and there is no encouragement
fos theusandB of producers when
they See this and know positively
What the middleman gets for a few
fieurs* work ef handling his prod-
duets* almost as large a per cent
bf profit- for this as the man who
preduees it: 'This does hot
bnl# apply td . products of
ali Mads for eating pur
poses* but it applies to eetton and
ali ether kinds ef farm products,
‘The oniy Ones that seem to have
fever keen able to solve this prob
lem are in communities where they
are feembined and grow enough ef
any toe product to have If mar
keted through an exchange and sold
direef te buyers who buy the prod-
bet Street frem the predueei* ot
through the exchange, ‘the iroblem
at Hastings, Fla., if handling Irish
potatoes is done in this manner.
The entire crop is bought on the
ground for cash. Tills system is
largely applied now/ to fruits and
vegetables all over the country, but
enough people have to make it a
business'to warrant buyers coming
to these sections and buying the
products rather than having them
consig- ed or shipped to market
and take the chance on getting
what they w’ll bring In the first
place when a man buys straightout products and- is offering them
for sale in the city through his store he will natural ly hold up his
price and not allow the market to break if he can possibly help it as he
knows what his goods cost and must make a profit on them. On the other
hand if the market is glutted with consigned goods the commission mer
chants who have these goods consigned to them have practically nothing
at stake except their commission and they often break the market and do not
get out of the products their actual worth. When this is once done the
market is broken and the man who has bought his goods has to meet the
price or have a still bigger loss. This is where one big leak comes in
handling products and has only been overcome by people who go into any
thing extensively enough to bring the buyers direct to the growers and get
for their products what they are actually worth.
With the poultry business it is quitje different and up to the present
time no one has ever produced in any one community in Georgia enough of
these products to have any one fixed or staple market, or warrant any one
coming into certain communities to buy as they are so scarce it is impos
sible to collect enough in any one community in Georgia to warrant a buyer
being on hand, and I don’t believe therrfi ever will a time come when the
poultry industry in Georgia at any ono.ifnace will ever be so largely looked
after or entered into by many people to' much more than supply their home
demand, let alone have any great quantity to sell, but it would be a great
thing if the people in Georgia could produce even enough products for home
consumption. The same thing applies to live stock as does to poultry and
all other food products, in reference to Georgia conditions. We still con
tinue to buy our butter, eggs, poultry and meats of all kinds, and a large
per cent of our feed from the west, and I guess will continue to do so as
long as cotton will grow in this state. ,
As I have said, it is discouraging to many people who attempt to mar
ket in their home market poultry, eggs, or most any other farm product.
The average farmer can take a load of corn, a load of hay, poultry or eggs
to his home market and he will usually b e compelled to take anything
he is offered for It. It is not a question of his naming the price at all,
but a question of whether he can find a buyer for his products who will
pay him the cash. The truth of the matter is while every one in this
community use thqse products he is offering and buy them they usually
do so from their merchants on a credit, and but few of them have the
money to pay cash for these products, and they prefer to buy from their
merchant at a much larger price on a credit than they could buy direct
from the farmer for cash. The merchants are just as had, and they
themselves, as a rule, do not encourage or patronize the man who offers
these products for sale. They seem to prefer buying thm from the west
and pay a better price than they will for their home grown products. The
merchants and the consumers are largel- responsible for the average
farmer not producing more of such things and offering them for sale, as
they find that cotton alone is about the only thing they can haul in any
large quantity and convert into cash the day they get It to market, ft
always has a market price and even then the buyer names the price
and the producer has to take whatever the buyer says, whether it is a
profitable price or one any where near within th e limit of the market.
The producer, as a rule, does not keep posted on the market, and just
so he gets somewhere near what he supposes is right or near the market
he is usually satisfied.
I saw just a few days ago a farmer drive into town with a wagonload
of products. He did not visit the city often, therefore was not well posted
as to the market conditions. He sold hie entire load of products for at
least one-fourth less than the average market price. He was late getting to
town, had a long ways to get back home and was anxious to get rid of his
load. The result was his loss on this one load of products was between $15
and $25 less than the market was actually paying. A merchant who saw
the situation made the farmer an offer, the first one he had received which
was at least one-fourth below the daily market. The farmer accepted it
and before he was out of sight the merchant who was posted on the market
had the products on his dray being delivered to a party who could use them,
and at a profit of about $20, which ne cleaned up In a few hours, just by
being familiar with city conditions ^
and the farmer was not. , (Ly

QUESTIONS ASKED AND ANSWERED.
QUESTION.
Atlanta, Ga.
I would like a little information
about my White Leghorn chicks.
They seem all right until they get
about four weeks old. Then their
wings droop and they die in a few
days. I feed them baby chick feed,
Aunt Patsy, white shorts and bran,
also beef scraps and plenty of
fresh water. They have dry and
comfortable quarters and have ‘the
best of care. Any information,
will be very thankful for.
MRS. H. F. W.
ANSWER.
In this same issue read reply to
Mrs. B. H. R. which practically
covers your case. You should omit
the shorts and bran. Two parts
bran to one part beef scraps with
some charcoal will be all right and
can be substituted in place of Aunt
Patsy or fed along with it after
the chickens are ten days old. It
should not be fed before. The
wings should be clipped. I am con
fident in both cases the chickens
have been overfed at some time and
have indigestion.' More chickens
are killed from overkindness and
overfeeding Qian from any other
one thing. I do not think there is
any doubt but this is the trouble
in both cases. Exercise and a va
riety of food will get their diges
tive organs in good shape and they
will eventually outgrow this trou
ble if you use judgment in feed
ing.
QUESTION.
Atlanta, Ga.
I would like very much for you
to give me some information in re
gard to my feeding my little chicks.
I have the White Leghorns. They
are healthy and growing fine, except
their combs. I feed them on the
red comb soratch and meat mash.
I give tkem a little fresU beef
scraps about once a tveek. Will the
fresh beef scraps hurt them? Please
advise me if I am not feeding them
‘right, and advise me how to feed
them to make their comb grow. I
will appreciate any information ybu
can give me in regard, to them.
Hoping to hear from you in the
columns of The Atlanta Journal, I
beg to remain as a chicken crank,
J. N. P.
ANSWER.
Usually with age Leghorn chick
ens’ combs will grow. It is not nec
essary to have them show much
growth while they are young, as
this will usually come right later
on with age.
The feed that you are giving, espe
cially the meat, has a tendency to
encourage the growth of comb and
as they get older you will find their
combs will begin to get larger.
Lots cf meat will always have a
tendency to grow an extra heavy
comb. You can add. from 10 to 15
per cent meat scraps to the Red
Comb meat mash for your chick
ens. There is enough already in it
for old chickens, and like it is at
present is splendid for young chick
ens.
