j MARKET REPORTS
(By Associated Press.)
NEW YORK, Sept. 15.—Reports that heavy
i ains and high winds were hurting open cotton
In the southwest and parts of the eastern belt,
strengthened bullish confidence this morning.
Prices opened firm at 6 to 15 points up and
active months sold about 15 to 16 net higher
during the first few minutes. This reflected
covering by many of last week’s sellers as well
as bull support and trade buying, but there
was considerable realising at the advance and
the market soon became Irregular with prices
6 or 7 points off from the best.
Offerings were readily taken on the setback of
6 or 7 points from the early high level and the ,
market firmed up* again with prices selling
15- to 16 points net higher late in the forenoon,
on continued damage reports from the southwest
and further covering.
The market was quiet during the early after
noon, but held steady and about 9 to 12 points
higher.

NEW* ORLEANS COTTON.
(By Associated Press.)
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 15.—Cotton futures
opened steady a t an advance of 11 to 18
points. Cables were about as due. The
market was advanced by the heavy rains over
Sunday in the cotton belt which private mes
sages this morning said had done much dam
age by beating open cotton out of the bolls
and by lowering the grade of the crop. Soon
after the call prices were 14 to 15 points up.
Profit-taking by longs became heavy and the
market reacted, standing at the end of the
first half hour of business at a rise of 6 to
8 points over Saturday’s close.
The market was quiet but steady throughout
the morning. Prices around the opening were
the hignest levels established. Considerable
profit-taking was done by longs and the mar
ket made several small downward swings, but
went back toward the highest levels again.
The detailed weather reports made it plain that
the rainfall o*er Sunday in the belt was very
heavy. Complaints of crop damage increased
as the day grew older and were the main sup
porting influence. At noon the market was 6 to
8 points over Saturday’s last quotations.

COTTON CROP CONDITION 63.8
. MEMPHIS, Sept. 15.—J. B. Turner’s report
says:
Replies of date of September 10 show a loss
in condition during two weeks of 4.4 per cent,
giving a percentage of 63.8 as of that date for
United States, government basis.
North Carolina 70, against 78 last month;
South Carolina 69, against 77 last month; Geor.
gia 73, against 70 last month; Alabama 68.
against 72 last month; Mississippi 66, against
69 last month; Tennessee 74, against SO last
month; Arkansas 69, against 72 last month;
Louisiana 64 against 67 last month; Oklahoma
41, against 43 last month; Texas 60, against
66 last month; United States 63.8, against 68.2
last motnh.
The condition on September 25 last year was
69.6 and the ten-year-average ror that date is
08.6. Rains since the date of these replies
have been of some benefit in the Mississippi
valley and eastward and have probably ar
rested deterioration, though It does not yet
appear that there has been any restoration,
of losses. In Texas excessive precipitation has
been productive of more damage to grade than
addition to yield.
HAYWARD & CLARK COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, La., Sept. 15.—Weather de
velopments over Sunday were as predicted and
distinctly favorable. The map this morning
shows part cloudy to fair in Texas and Okla
homa; only a little precipitation at a few points.
Generally cloudy in the central and eastern
states, with a general rainfall, light to mod
erate, except heavy in the Mobile district. There
was no storm, merely a rain formation moving
from Texas eastward. Indications are for gen
erally fair weather In the western states, ex-
ocept possibly a few light showers in north
east Texas; cloudy, unsettled and rainy weather
in the eastern half of the belt.
Washington predicts a week of fair weather

usual whenever there is a rainy spell at this

current pickings, they are beneficial to crop de

bull argument, as lower grades are more subject
to tbe competition of cheaper cotton of other
growth, such as India cotton. The premium for !

NEW YORK COTTON LETTER
NEW VOltK, Sept. 15.—-There was concen
trated buying on and after opening by bull
forces, which caused the market to open some
10 points higher tliau was expected. After the
call, however, the advance was checked on sell-
in of some 20,000 January by a broker who
usually operates for some of the spot people.
When this selling was over the market rallied
again easily as the offerings were very light.
Liverpool was said to be a seller here. The
bull forces are talking much higher prices aud
I understand are prdictlng 14 cents this week.
This will depend on the movement and news
from Washington. ltalns over Sunday were
ratlier general and in some sections excessive.
However, not much attention is paid to weather
conditions at present. The consumption is what
the bull element is pinning faith to; and the
belief that the coming crop will be below the
world’s needs.—Anderson.

Trade and Crop Re
ports from the South
—From Bradstreet's.
Richmond.—-Trade, though irregu
lar, is fairly satisfactory, and tends
to improve as the fall season advances.
Sales of shoes and dry goods are o£
good volume. Produce is active,
fruits are not very plentiful, and de
mand as well as prices is good. Whole
sale provision dealers report Increased
sales. Lumber is quiet. Crops are
in excellent condition. Corn and cotr
ton are being harvested in North Caro
lina. Demand Is active and prices are
good. Some damage to crops as the
result of storms Is reported, but the
damage is not widespread enough to
affect general conditions. Retail trade
Is fair, being stimulated by special
sales and tne commencing of school
terms. Local railroad reports show
an increase in net earnings. Tobacco
manufacturers report tne largest sales
or recent months. Labor Is generally
well employeu. Building shows little
activity. collections are slow.
Huntington.—-Wliiiesale and job
bing houses report an active nuslness,
witn collections lair to slow. (jio-
cenee, ary guous ana snoes are in gouu
ueinana. banes tor August were tne
largest ever recorded tor tnat montn.
Mine ana mill supply houses are doing
a good business, with collections nor
mal. Furniture manulaciurers report
a large amount of oruers boosed, and
tuey are running full capacity. Deal
ers In and manufacturers of poplar
ana harawood lurnoer report good, busi
ness, witn collections fair.
Charleston , S. C.—Trade pros
pects continue good. Farmers are
busy picKing cotton, and early fall
notes have been paid promptly. Col
lections are fair.
Chattanooga—Retail trade has
been greatly Increased because of the
Grand Army of the Republic encamp
ment, which is now taxing place,
wholesale trade in all lines is about
normal. The cotton crop was seri
ously Injured by drought during Au
gust, ana tne yield in mis section win
ut considerably less than was at first
anticipated. Collections are slow.
Memphis..—Jobbers of dry goods,
groceries, hardware and shoes report
tou-les active, both In the house and
from travelers. Retail trade is back
ward on account of warm weather. Re
cent rains benefited the cotton crop.
Collections are only fair.
Atlanta.—The movement of the cot
ton crop lends Impetus to trade in all
lines, particularly at wholesale. Build
ing is not so active, but conditions are
favorable. Very little rain has taller?
during the past thirty days, which, no
doubt, has hurt cotton to some extent.
On the other hand, the weather has
been ideal for the harvesting of forage
crops. Cotton is opening rapidly, and
an early movement is anticipated.
Birmingham.—The Iron market shows
improvement, with some substantial
orders booked, and the outlook is rather
optimistic. No. 2 foundry Is being
quoted for last quarter delivery at
$11.50. Business in lumber and build
ers’ materials js better, while other
lines are doing a reasonably good vol
ume. In general retail lines clearance
sales are in evidence. Recent rains have
been very beneficial to corn and cotton.
Collections show some improvement.
Mobile.—Jobbing trade Is increasins
and about equals last year's. Retail
trade Is quiet. There will not be more
than a half crop of cotton in some sec
tions, owing to the recent drought, but
in other sections a good yield is re
ported.
Montgomery.—The outlook is for poor
crops of corn and cotton, yields of both
being far below those of past years.
Trade is quiet and collections are poor.
Jackson.—Wholesale trade is very
good, and retail shows Improvement.
Collections are slow. The cotton crop
outlook is better than for the last two
preceding years.
New Orleans.*—Frequent showers over
Louisiana have retarded rice harvesting
and caused the cotton crop to shed rath
er freely. So far no material damage
has come from wet weather, but show
ers are occurring almost daily. In some
sections the boll weevil is doing damage.
! Cotton is rapidly being marketed, and
farmers, as a rule, seem disposed to
accept prevailing prices. Sugar cane Is
In good condition, and the outlook for a
good crop is favorable. Jobbers look
for marked improvement In business
conditions and collections during the
next thirty to sixty days.
Muskogee—This vicinity has been vis
ited by a general rain which will benefit
cattlemen, as they were having some
difficulty in finding water enough. It is
also very beneficial to the pasturage, and
'will assist in maturing the last growth
of the cotton crop. In the oil section
it has been reported that quite a num
ber of pumping stations had ceased
operations on account of no water, but
with this general rain the Industry will
commence at once. Rains have checked
damage to eorn, but came too late to
increase the yield, and no more than
a one-fourth crop will be realized. A
slight increase in the cotton crop will
result, and 35 to 40 per cent yield is
expected. One more crop of alfalfa will
result from the wet weather, and pas
turage is materially benefited, but more
rain Is needed to insure an ample supply
of water for cattle. Retail trade is only
fair, but merchants express confidence
of a speedy increase in business.
Oklahoma—Rains the past week broke
the long drought. The soil will be in
condition for fall plowing and forage
crops have been benefited, while another
cutting of alfalfa is assured. Trade re
mains dull and collections are slow.
Dallas—Wholesale trade is satisfac
tory, but retail trade has not open lift
as yet. Collections are fairly good.
Scattering rains have fallen over this
section, but they were too late to benefit
cotton.
THE CROPS.
The feature of the week has been the
widespread rains in the southwest,
breaking the drought partially or whol
ly in Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri and
parts of Texas. It is rather , too late
to help corn In the drought-suffering
states, but the rains will check further
deterioration and help late forage crops,
pastures, stock water and fall plowing.
Corn harvesting, while not general, is
being prosecuted in large areas. Spring'
wheat harvesting is about finished in
the northwest, and -movement is expand
ing rapidly. Winter wheat movement
is, however, under a pull exerted by
the scarcity or high price of corn and
oats.
Cotton reports are Irregular. Some
Oklahoma reports say the top crop has
been benefited, but some Texas points
say rain came too late to help the late
crop. Showers are general in the cen
tral south, and there are some com
plaints of shedding or of boll weevil
damage, but the lower Mississippi crop
promises better than last year. Good
reports and advices of a large move
ment come from the southeast.
Rains have helped sugarcane in
Louisiana, but checked rice harvesting.
Poor reports come from tbe Kentucky
burley tobacco crop and from the Lan
caster, Pa., district, but Virginia to
bacco crop reports are good.
Rains have helped pastures and late
forage crops In New York and New Eng
land.
Good apple and peach crops are re
ported in the Hudson valley.
The raisin crop in California is said
to ha abeul half the normal yield.
The Beef Question
A BBEVILLE, Ga.,—Question: I
noticed your article in August
29th issue of The Semi-Week
ly Atlanta Journal advocating cat
tle raising in the south. I, like
you, believe we can raise the as
cheap as in any part of the United
States, but our market does not
offer any inducements to raise
thvun. Fifteen to twenty years ago
when beef retailed in| our local
markets for 8c to 12c the market
men paid 2c to 3c for cattle, the
western markets were paying 4c
to 6c. Today, with beef retailing
from 15c to 18c and the western
cattle market ranging from 8 to 11c
I can’t get over 3c for a fat cow in
LaGrange today. Yearlings are
about two and one-half cents.
Well, you will say, ship my cattle
to better market. I haven’t got
enough. There is a firm in La-
Grange that buys up the surplus
that the local market does not take,
but at prices a little less than
quoted above. Now it does seem
to me that if prices of beef cattle
in the west and the retail price of
- beef in our local market has prac
tically doubled in the last twenty
years, we ought to haye at least
five cents for our cattle.
I have read several articles in
The Journal, Southern Ruralist
and other papers similar to. yours.
All say raise more cattle, but none
say anything about the extremely
low price as compared with former
prices and prices in other sections.
Hoping to see something more
on this line and along the line of
above, I am
C. E. MALLORY.
Answer: Your letter is just exactly the kind of information that
i 7 be pu,3lis hed in the papers, and is the kind that will get people to
thinking. You are exactly right. The average butcher and the people
generally who are buying cattle today in the south are not willing to pay
any more now than they did ten to fifteen years ago. Yet, firstclass beef
is selling at two to three times as much.
There are two reasons for this. In the first place cattle are so scarce
and so fe wpeople have them to offer that only a few generally buy. They
know they can get the cattle at any price they offer. Therefore they take
advantage of the seller as he must sell and get them so they can more than
double their money on every animal they buy. You can not blame them be
cause they have no competition. They have an opportunity to make this
big per cent of profit and of course it is natural for every one to do so
when it is in their power. However, they do not think of what it will
bring forth years afterwards. Just such work as this has discouraged and
kept many people from breeding cattle that- would do so if the buyer would
encourage them in the least and instead of the buyer who now has an
opportunity to only handle a few, and make a big per cent of profit. If
this work was encouraged they could handle a great volume of business
and make enough out of it worth while and still pay the producer twice
as much as they are now doing. When cattle are raised in largo numbers
there is sure to spring up more or less competition from the buyers, and
when this is done we will get what they are worth. It is sure to come
sooner or later. Buyers who are willing to pay the price will be distri
buted over the south the same as they are in the east and west when there
is enough cattle for them to fool with, but at present they would starve to
death and could not get enough cattle to keep their business going. That
is one reason why they must make a big profit on the few they do handle.
Another thing that has always kept the price of our cattle down is
poor quality. There is really not ten per cent of all of the cattle in the
entire south regular beef cattle or fit for firstclass he«f, and a butcher
cannot make a profit out of the class of cattle we breed, even though he
only pays one-half the market price quoted for western cattle. The meat
is no* on them and he cannot get one-half the per cent of profit out of
the average Georgia cow as can be cut out of a good western Shorthorn or
Herford. There is more steak on the front quarters of a firstclass Short
horn, Herford or Powl beef animal than can be found in the hindquarters
of the very best native Georgia beef that can he had. We will have to
improve the quality of our beef cattle in Georgia and ra se more of them,
and timn we will have a market and buyers who are willing to pay the
price for our products at a profit.
It will take several years to get things working as they should. We
are being forced every day to take hold o” this and while it may not
make a big per cent of profit for the first who undertake it, it is sure to
come later, and is absolutely essential to the future welfare of our country.
There is no use of our putting it off longer. We might as well keep better
quality and encourage enough to undertake it as a large lot can be shipped
from a community. This is being done in Elbert county and a large num
ber of farmers there have all agreed to feed out from one tc five animalB
each and by doing this they can at most any time get together a carload
that they can ship either to Atlanta or to Louisville. The White Produce
company, of Atlanta, is always ready and willing to pay a price equal to
any of the western markets for the y-A
same quality of cattle as is sold
there and will gladly do so. -* * ' 1 jf ** * *

QUESTIONS ASKED AND ANSWERED.
QUESTION.
Griffin, Ga.
I have a patch 100x100 yards
which I wish to plant in alfalfa
this fall. I have just cut the pea
vine hay from this patch and have
two tons of limestone rock on hand.
I will appreciate it if you will
kindly write me your method of
preparation of the ground and the
time and amount of planting.
I have misplaced your pieces cut
from The Journal and wish th*e in
formation at your earliest conven
ience.
S. H. W.
ANSWER.
I am enclosing you a little book
let which will tell you exactly
how to succeed with alfalfa. I have
distributed to those who have
mailed me a two-cent stamp five
thousand of these little books with
in the past sixty days. They are
invaluable and any one can suc
ceed with alfalfa who will follow
the instructions as outlined in this
little book. It covers thirteen
years of my experience and hun
dreds are successfully growing it
who have followed these instruc
tions. It will tell you just ex
actly what to do with your land
now and after the pea vines have
been cut, and will really be better
and go into more full details than
the short instructions that I could
give you through The Journal.
This book of instruction will be
mailed to any one for a two-cent
stamp.
