The posting of the forecast of generally fair weather for the western belt iucreased the buy ing and at the end of the first half hour of business prices were unchanged to 1 point up compared with the close of yesterday. Offerings grew les around the middle of the morning and the market displayed considerable strength, the most active months reaching a level 8 to 10 points over yeseterday’s last quo- tauons.

Keene, one of the most widely known stock market speculators this country lias produced: ‘No man has a right to speculate unless he has the instinct of a gam bler and can’t satisfy it in any other way. The few r men that 1 have known who have made money by speculating would have made infinitely more by directing their energies in legitimate channels. As for the thousands who have lost money by speculating, the lesson is obvious." I am not going to preach a sermon, however short, against gambling. I just want to point out to the reader of this little article who is solicited to take a chance in some far-off enterprise that nine times in ten he is asked to go into a speculation which may be likened to a game played against a professional gambler who is using marked cards. And that isn’t intelligent gambling. If you feel that you can afford to take a chance w r ith your money, why not pick out some one in your own com munity who has a plan for getting rich and back him? If you do that, you | wMll increase your chances of winning many hundred per cent over your chances if you fall for the siren talk ' of the promoter who wants to sell you \ gold mine stock or the stock of a ba- , nana plantation in Central America. i Tf you have in your blood the gam bling germ, remember that it can be trained to become a very real help in the development of your own com munity. Perhaps you can find enough others similarly infected to undertake the building of an interurban trolley line or a telephone line. In both these enterprises you will find full scope for your instinct to gamble, and the work is of a character to test your resource- ^ulness. your judgment has been good, you will find, after a time, that the tele phone line and the trolley line are needed by some large company to make certain connections. You will have an other period of pleasant excitement in negotiating the deal. You see, there are legitimate . and healthful ways of satisfying the gam bling instinct.

J. T. GAULT. 37 Inman BuiJdinj. Atlanta. Ga. PIGEONS T HE growing of pigeons has attracted much attention by many city people during the past year. Many people who have kept poultry are now keep ing pigeons as tney find consid erably less work about pigeons and less expense attached to the keeping of them.' There is one thing about pigeons different from chickens. They will lay and hatch, also raise their own young, and if a person will be careful not to allow anything but mated birds in the fly they will raise a pair of young nearly every month in the year after they once settle down to wortc. Usually during the month of September, while they are moulting, they take a rest, and tt is not often they raise a pair of young during this month, but it is surprising how many pairs of squabs one pair of pigeons can and will raise for you with very little atten tion. — There is one thing that many people who keep pigeons neglect. They do not dip their birds and keep the Insects oft during tne summer months as they should. Another thing, not many people give them as much salt as they should have, and a place to bathe in. Pigeons like to take a bath every day, even during the win ter, and they need ‘salt to keep their systems in good condition and help digest their tood. A preparation known as* Red Cross Health Grit which is Usually sold by all seed dealers is absolutely essential in the keeping of pigeons when they are confined. An other mistake that people make in the keeping of pigeons Is that they feed them the ordinary scratch feed used for chickens. i\early all makes of feed have more or less barley or oats in them ana tms is in jurious to young squabs. 1 They should have peas, kaffer corn, cracked corn with some hemp seed, but should not have oats or barley. There is a regular pigeon feed made for them and it can be had of nearly any seed dealer at practically the same price as the ordinary scratch feed, and it is far better to see that your pigeons get this kind of feed than to feed them the regular chicken feed. A pigeon also likes more or less green food and it should be fed to them regular. In dipping pigeons the same as you would chickens you should be very careful not to allow them to go on a nest of young ones or a nest of eggs while they avp wet. They should he kept away until they are dry. They \\ f ill usually dry out good *n two or three hours after beina dipped and will be free from insects for some time to come. It pays equally as well if not better to dip pigeons as well as chickens as it keeps the insects off of the squabs and makes them fat ana ready for use when they are weaned, but If they are Infested with insects, regardless of how much feed they have they will not be as fat as they should be. A large number of pigeons can be kept in a small space. There fore, they appeal to the person who has only a limited space to take care of them. The ordinary squab breeding Homers are the best when you are raising equabs for market or for your own table use. Of course fancy pigeons Usually afford the fancier more pleasure and give him something to study more than the ordinary squab breeder, and there is nothing more attractive than a large loft of fancy pigeons of the various varieties and colors. They give the tired business man muen pleasure and amusement, and aside fi-om the profit they are worth keeping for the pleasure and entertainment they afford anyone. It is surprising how few people appreciate this fact and how few are-inclin ed to keep these beautiful birds just for the real pleasure they get out of them It costs but little to keep a large flock of pigeons and they are certainly a pleasure and entertaining to anyone. There are but few things that will afford as much pleasure at the same cost that a. flock of pigeons will and many who are situated so they can keep them will find much pleasure and a reasonable per cent of profit from the keeping of even fancy pigeons. I know of one little hoy in Georgia this year who has sold more than $100 worth of squabs for table use. What this boy has hone many others can do. It will keep them at home, give them something for entertainment and learn them to transact business that they wou d never know about were It not foi beginning in a small way by even the keeping of a few pigeons. Yours very truly. QUESTIONS ASKED AND ANSWERED. QUESTION. Atlanta, Ga. I have a Barred Plymouth Rock hen that I noticed limping very slightly last week, hut she has grad ually grown worse until she can scarcely walk now. There is no swelling visible about her foot .or leg, but she walks with great dif ficulty and puts her head almost to the ground. She has eat well until the last two days. I have noticed her droppings are whitish and greenish. Any information will bv greatly appreciated. MRS. L- A. P. ANSWER. Sometimes chickens from no ap parent cause will become sick or injured the same as a person. Con fine the hen in a small place and give her a large lump of vaseline twice a, day. If this does not bring her around all right nothing you can give her will. QUESTION. Effingham, S. C. I have a fine bird puppy who has the distemper. ”"e does not ea.t anything hardly. He sneezes often and occasionally vomits up a small amount of white matter. Will you kindly give me some in formation through the columns of The Semi-Weekly Journal as to the cause and treatment of the disease? Thanking you in advance for any information, I am, S. B. D. ANSWER. The best way to treat dogs with distemper is to use Glover’s or Spratt’s Distemper cure, keep them dry and fed on raw eggs and sweet milk. If they have a good strong constitution and are in good health they will recover if the medicine is given regular and they are treated before too far gone and. their system kept in good shape oy the use of eggs and milk. In fact, good feeding and kept dry and comfortable has a lot to do with the curing of distemper. QUESTION. Beauford, S. C. Please answer this/in The Jour nal: My chickens all have the pip, |ven the young ones three months old. Flease give a remedy to cure them, without piping them; also how to prevent it. They never have been sick a day, only they are very poor and don’t eat much. Thanking you in advance, I re main, MRS. E. C. S. ANSWER. There fe no such thing as pip In chickens. All chickens have a hard substance on the end of their tongue and nature has provided this to pro tect the tongue when they pick up their feed. Your chickens begins poor and not having an appetite is probably caused from, either lice or mites sapping the life out of them. They should be dipped In a solution of Bee Dee, Chloro or Nox-l-cide, all advertised In Journal, to get rid of these. The houses where they sleep should also be sprayed thor oughly with this mixture or painted inside with Agasco Spray or creo sote. This will kill every insect. You will find when they are rid of the insects they will begin to eat and pick .up in flesh. Feed them well on whole corn and good quality of scratch feed.

Figured in accordance with the government method, this would indicate a crop of about 2,359,000,000 bushels on the basis of the original Snow estimate of acreage. The official indication this month is likely to be not far from $2,300,000,000 bdsbels. Present con dition in Ohio 78, as loss of 11 points for the month; Indiana, 75, loss 0; Illinois, 60, loss 11; Iowa. 75, loss 12.; Missouri 45, loss 28; Kansas 12, loss 18; Nebraska 50, loss 29. In the six states of secondary importance the September condition is: Texas 70: Tennessee 65; Kentucky 62: Minnesota 93; South Dakota, 85. The crop continues to suffer from heat and drouth over j large areas and is filling poorly and drying up i prematurely and husking is likely to reveal fur- I ther disappointment in yield as well as quality. Further shrinkage to the final volume of the es timated crop will occur through the elimination of several millions of acres which have been abandoned so far as harvesting any corn is concerned. Condition of spring wheat when harvested. .75,2 versus 75.3 on August 1. This would indi cate a crop of about 241.000,000 bushels, but such threshing as lias been done, shows yield is running fully one bushel above the indication so that final official estimate - of at least 300,000,- 000 bushels may bo anticipated. Threshing re turns to date warrant the belief'that Minnesota and Dakota will finally bo credited with 190,- COOdEK) Preliminary IreDirns of oats iudicate a crop of nboMLJK59.000;000 bushels.

Our market lost about 12 jxdnts In | the early trading but met with a general c«- | mand, reflecting the prevailing bullish feeling and the loss was soon recovered. Anticipa tion of an unfavorable report on Arkansas by a traveling crop observer caused buying, as also a local rainstorm formation over north Georgia. New York reported attempts by cer tain prominent operators to further bull tlie market, but considerable selling by the spot houses. On the whole trading is quieter, the market less one-sided and conservative opion- ion favors a halt to develop u stronger spot demand and spot prices t.> c-unc up.
