MARKET REPORTS
<By Associated Press, i j
INEW YORK, Aug. 18.—Reports tliat show- |
era had fallen over drouthy sections of the
southwest were accompanied by a sharp break
in Llv rpool today, and cotton OpeiKid easy at
a decline of 14 to 17 i»olnts. There were
many selling orders at the start, and recent
buyers seemed to be liquidating on Texas rain
reports, but offerings were well taken on re
ports that the weather was clear and warm in
T«xas and Oklahoma this morning.
Business became 'ess active after early of
ferings had been absorbed, and prices rallied
4 or 3 points from the lowest on covering, with
the market about steady at midday, and from
8 to 10 points net lower pending detailed
weather reports. Estimated receipts today,
8,000 bales.
Failure of the official details to show as
much rain in Texas as suggested by early ad
vices caused enough covering to send prices
back to nearly Saturday's closing during the
noou hour. Busiuess, however, continued quiet
and the market later ruled some 5 to 6 points
net lower.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
<By Associated Press.)
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. IS.—The cotton fu l
ture market opeued steady at a decline <*f 13
to 17 points on poor cables and reports of
rains over Sunday in Texas and Oklahoma,
whicu the bears considered went a long way to
ward breaking the long drouth in those two
states. These reports were from private
sources and were not confirmed by the weather
map, nevertheiss thy led to heavy selling ou
the first call and had decided Influence in
Liverpool, according to cable messages from
that market. After the call prices stood 16
to 17 points down. Shorts took profits an.l
caused something of a reaction. At the end
of the first half hour of busiuess prices were
10 to 11 points under Saturday’s close.
The official weather reports noted rain at
only eleven stations out of fifty, counting both
Saturday and Sunday, in the state of Texas
and this together with the forecast of generally
fair weather for the western half of the cotton
region except for showers along the gulf coast
caused nervousness and covering among shorts
and brought in some little long buying. From
the middle of the morning on the market had a
very good tone aud prices displayed a decided
reactionary tendency. At noon the trading
months were 6 to 8 points under Saturday’s last
figures.

TIMES-DEMOCRAT REPORT
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 18.—The Tiraes-Dem-
ocrat herewith presents the reports of its cor
respondents as to the condition of the crop on
August 12. The consensus of opinions Is to the
following effect:
First. With the exception of Texas and Ok
lahoma, distinct improvement lias been the rule.
The two states just named have suffered from
drouth and excessive heat and the deterioration
has been considerable.
Second. The crop has been exceedingly well
cultivated and the result begins to be manifest.
Third. The boll weevil has been active in
many districts, but the farmers have waged
a vigorous campaign against the pest, and the
damage does not appear to have been important,
except in certain parts of southwest Texas.
Fourth. The supply of labor is generally said
to be sufficient and no trouble is expected ou
this score.
Fifth. Most correspondents report that farm
ers are inclined to sell, at current prices, at
least enough of their crops to put them out of
debt.
NEW YORK COTTON LETTER.
NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—The market sold off
this morning on weak Liverpool and reported
rains over Texas yeterday but was later bought
on the high temperatures In Oklahoma and
Texas and wires received reporting considreable
damage by the continued drouth and extremely
hot weather. The feeling altogether te far
more bullish than it has been for ome time
past. Memphis is aid to have been a good
buyer In this market today, also a good many
other southern points. Thoe Inclined to the
bear side are of the opinion that should good
rains come over the west that we may expect
a considerable decline.—Anderson.

HAYWARD & CLARK COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Lu., Aug. 18.—Weather de
velopments over Sunday were favorable, as
there was precipitation in combination with
cooler weather over the greater part of the
western states, while the rainfall was light In
the eastern half of the belt. Indications are
for further precipitation, particularly in the
southern and western half of Texas. It will
get cooler generally over the northern half of
the belt. Weekly crop reports from Alabama
are very good. All say complaints are very
few. Plant has maintained Its vigor and is
we.l fruited; no unusual shedding. Free
movement expected about the first week in
September.
Liverpool came about 5 lower than due.
Spots 6 lower; sales 7,000. Cables continue
to report slack business. ^First trades here
were at a decline of about 16 points, encoun
tering very good demand near 11 cents, which
steadied prices. A disposition seems to pro
vail to reduce short lines on the opinion that
relief in the west comes late to affect bureau
returns and that it might be safer to wait
around 11 cents for that publication and the
s unn period.

SNOW’S CROP REPORT
CHICAGO, Aug. 18.—Snow says special re
turns from my local agents as of an average
date of about August 12, make condition of corn
66.7, against 75.1 on August S. On basis of
my estimate of this year’s acreage, that would
forecast a crop of about 2,87u,ou0,000 bushels,
or on the government acreage a crop of about
2,351,000,000. This Is a further crop loss dur
ing the first twelve clays of this month )f
300,000,000 bushels, and makes drouth loss to
the corn crop from July 1 to August 12, a
little more than 600.000,000 bushels. In tho
district worse hurt, there has been a week of
further damage since the date of .these re
turns, which will appear in the official report
on September 1 and which is likely to show
any Improvement in any districts which have
had relief. Present reported conditions are
Ohio 82, a loss of 7 points since August 1;
Indiana 76, loss 5; ’Illinois 60, loss 11: Iowa
77, loss 10; Missouri 53, loss 23: Kansas
15, loss 15. The present returns forecast a
crop In the surplus states as compared with
last vear and with last previous short crop
(1911) ns follows: Ohio 144,000.000. final 1912
174 000,000, final 1911 151.000,000; Indiana
102,000,000. against 199,000,000 and 175.000,000:
Illinois 274.000,000, against 246.000,000 ami
335,000,000: Iowa 309.000.000, against 342,-
000.000 and • 305.000,000: Missouri 140,000.000,
against 243.000,000 and 192,000 000. Kansas
30,000.000, against 174,000,000 and 126,000,000;
Nebraska 120.000,000, against 183.000.000 and
156.000,000.
Oats—My first returns of threshing show an
average oats yield of 27 bushels to the acre,
or almost identically the rate forecasted by
the last report of condition. If later reports
maintain this preliminary showing, It would
make a crop, on the basis of my estimate of
acreage of 997,000,000 bushels, or on the gov
ernment acreage of 1.085,000,000 bushels. My
second returns of winter wheat threshing are
almost blent’cal with the first, showing a crop
of 522,000,000 bushels. Considerable stress has
been laid upon the fact that in states ad
joining the corn bolt on the north, the croo
promise Is high. In Wisconsin, Minnesota
and South Dakota conditions are promising but
the total acreage is only 6,rtr\0*00, while in
Arkansas, Tennessee and Kentucky, usually lost
sight of, there is an acreage of 9,300,000 upon
which the present promise is for only about
half a crop.

COST OF NOT KNOWING.
82 iOHii hi CSK1S0S
The other day Charles - S. Melien
announced that he would retire from
the presidency of the New York, New'
Haven and Hartford Railroad company.
It was. he judged, the only effective an
swer to the storm against him and his
management of the system.
For nearly ten years the thousands
of stockholders of the New Haven sys
tem went along happily, paying no at
tention to the acts of Mr. Melien and
his board of directors—the very acts
which are now spoken of as the acts of
a czar, a monopolist, a wrecker. The
reason for the indifference of the stock
holders was that the old dividend rate
was continued; and when certain inter
ests sought to check the Melien policy
of buying out competition at extrava
gant prices, it wasn’t hard for the
management to convince the stockhold
ers generally that the motives of their
opponents were open to question. But—
When the dividend rate was cut from
8 per cent a year to 6 per cent a year
the great body of stockholders sat jp
and took notice—r-sure, they could see
with half an eye that the Melien regime
had been extravagant and unwise!
Up to the date this is written two
quarterly dividends at the reduced rate
have been declared; the income paid to
the stockholders in that six months'
period since the reduction went into
effect has been cut just $1,573,272. In
the market value of the more than 157
millions of New Haven stock there has
been a decrease in the value since tho
Melien regime began of a great many
millions—in 1903, l’or instance. New
Haven stock sold at $225 a share, and
this summer its price went under $100
a share.
Here is the money cost of indiffer
ence on the part of stockholders in one
railroad system in ten years.
Now. suppose that stockholders ot
that road had been active and had in
sisted on knowing all the details of all
the deals through which the Melien
management came to grief? It is hardly
likely that the property today would be
in the same position.
As a matter of fact, the stockhold
ers (who are the actual owners of a
business) seldom knotv what is going
on. In theory they elect the directors,
who in turn dictate the policy of the
management. But in a business whose
stockholders are as numerous and as
widely scattered as was the case of the
New Haven, thp real owners have very
little to say. Everi the knowledge on
which they might base an intelligent
vote for directors is ot supplied
them.
It is time for stockholders to revolt
against the old system!

How to Get Your Fowls
to Molt
T KE best method to get birds
molting early, and most of
them at a uniform stage, is
to give them their liberty and free
range, and feed only a limited
amount of food that is not fatten
ing, such as wheat Dran made into
a stiff wet mash, together with
boiled oats. They should not be
fed enough to satisfy their appe
tites, making them reduce some in
flesh. This should be practiced for
several weeks, but'do not allow the
birds to get too poor or weak. Us-
uall" three or four weeks of treat
ment of this kind will be sufficient,
especially where the birds are in
fair condition. They should be
confined in a yard with limited
space after going through this
method, then • gradually Increase
their feed until their appetites are
satisfied, getting them to consume
just as much as possible. You will
find that they will begin to'take on
a new coat just as soon as they
begin to take on new flesh.
It is a good idea to keep Aunt
Patsy’s, Park and Pollard, Red
Comb Cerella, or any other good,
dry mash feed continually before
them in self-feeding hoppers. Twice
each day they should be given a
heavy feed of grain with some
whole wheat or whole grain corn
added to the ordinary scratch feed.
A wet mash twice each week will
be very beneficial and much enjoy
ed. This should he composed of
boiled oats, alfalfa meal, and meat
scraps, to which should be added
equal parts of bran, corn meal and
shorts.
While they are molting or taking
on a new coat of feathers, it is a
good idea to add a limited amount
of cotton seed meal or flaxseed
meal either to a dry mash or to the wet mash, say ten pounds to one hun
dred pounds is sufficient. This should only be fed during the time they are
molting. Is is very rich, and will add color to the plumage, making it
rich in oil.
Birds that you wish to molt early and quickly should by all means
be kept epol, or in shaded places. The molt will be prolonged for some
time if they are not kept cool. Therefore, this is very important. This
system is best for a large fiock, but one of the quickest ways to get a
single bird to molt after it has been reduced in flesh, is to confine it in a
cool, dark coop or building and feed heavily just what it will eat up clean,
at least three times a day. You can ordinarily make a bird molt and grow
a new coat in six weeks after it has become thin and you attempt to put on
new flesh.
- In addition to the regular grain mash feed, they should be fed an
abundance of green food of some kind regularly every day. It helps to
keep their digestive organs in good fix, and they get the benefit of the
daily food when this is done. Tender rape, alfalfa, Swiss chard, oats or
green food of any kind is the proper thing to give. Any abundant tender
growth that can he cut every day will answer for this purpose.
When this method is first begun all chickens should be thoroughly
dipped to see that they are free from insects. The house should be thor
oughly cleaned with disinfectant, and the roosts thoroughly inspected to
see that no mites are on the premises. If more attention was paid to this
particular thing, thousands of fowls would molt out early and begin lay
ing early in the fall. Of course, there is a difference in fowls. Some
varieties are inclined to get very fat, and are much harder to reduce than
others. Old birds are more Inclined to get fat than young ones. There
fore, in a case of this kind the flock should be separated. You will have
to be governed in this by personal handling of the birds and see what
difference exists.
Thousands of dollars could be saved to the southern breeders by giving
prompt attention to these suggestions .
during the months of August aud
September.
Yours very truly,
QUESTIONS ASKED AND ANSWERED.
QUESTION.
Sanford. Fla.
Will you please tell me what is
best to do for my chickens? They
have something like sorehead, save
on eyes, earlobes and gills. They
will stand and shake their heads
with their eyes closed and don’t
seem to want to be disturbed at all.
Thr;* don’t seem to care to eat at
all. and when I take one up to sec
what to do for it, why some water
or yellow color will discharge from
the mouth and nose. I had come
to the conclusion that it was cholera
and gave them ehdigo oil in milk,
twenty drops to a wine glass of
milk, then gave a teaspoonful of the
milk, but it seemed to do no good
whatever. Finally they die. I have
lost a good many .in that way and
seems that there is no let up to It.
Kindly tell me what is best to do.
I keep fresh water for them twice
a day and keep ’their sleeping quar
ters clean and well ventilated. I feed
them corn, but once a week give
them a soft mash and. scratch feed
twice a week.
D. D. S.
ANSWER.
If you will read The Weekly At
lanta Journal of this week you will
see how to treat sorehead. By using
the raw linseed oil, one pint to
which has been added two ounces of
carbolic acid, and giving the Epson
salts once a week and sulphur once
a week you can Keep in check this
dreaded disease. The article in this
week’s Weekly Journal will tell you
just how to treat them. It was alsp
in Daily Journal Monday, August 4.
If southern breeders would use
these remedies every year and if
taken in time they would never have
any trouble with sorehead.
QUESTION.
You will find stamp enclosed
for book on alfalfa growing. I no
ticed a small patch of It planted in
my neighborhood this year and I
would like to learn something
about the preparation for it and
the kind of land most suitable for
raising it. J. g. HAMER.
ANSWER.
Your request for book on alfalfa
received, but you do not give your
postoffice address. Your letter is
like hundreds of others which are
sent to me that would receive at
tention if their name and address
was given, but many of them have
to go to the waste basket by not
knowing where to address the let
ter to.
I will gladly send you my book
on alfalfa, giving full details for a
2-cent stamp, and it will be inval
uable to you. I will have to know
your postoffice address before you
can get the book.
QUESTION.
Tifton. Ga.
Please give me a remedy for the
heaves in a horse. I have this af
fection and am anxious to get a
remedy.
SUBSCRIBER.
ANSWER.
It would be best for you to con
sult some veterinary surgeon about
the heaves in your horse. At dif
ferent stages of this disease they
require different treatment and
some things that will cure one
horse will not cure another. The
veterinary surgeon can tell you bet
ter than I can just what to do.
Dr. C. A. Carey, of Auburn, Ala.,
will probably give wou this infor
mation if you will write him and
enclose a stamp for reply. State
how long horse has been troubled
and describe fully.

“There never is time to ‘make ready’
in any truly great crisis in life,” said
the secretary, commending the crack
gunners for their skill. “What is a

by men who live in a state of prepared
ness?
“You may not know it, but it will add
to your appreciation when I tell you that
as a boy it was the highest ambition of
Woodrow Wilson to enter the naval
academy and become an officer. If his
father had not led him into other lines
the probability is that today he would
be with us a captain or an admiral.”
