THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1913. 7 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 YORK 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. NEW ORLEANS COTTON. The following were the ruling prices la the exchange today: Tone steady; middling, 13c; steady. Last Prev.

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.

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.

ASKER, President BANNER TAILORING CO. Dept. aiJi CHICAGO 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 ** * * Yours very truly, * w~•t*"'* 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. ST. LOUIS CASK QUOTATIONS. (By Associated Press.)
