(By Associated Press.; NEW YORK, Sept. 29.—Washington advices tended to relieve apprehension on the cotton market and after opening steadied at a decline of five to eleven points under scattering liquida tion, prices turned firm. Cables were a shade lower than due and there were favorable crop accounts from Georgia and the Carolina^ but very bullish advices from oth er sections. Leading bull Interests were big btiyers at tbe opening decline. After a rally to a shhde’ over Saturday's closing, trading became more or less irregular. . , . The market was less active later but seemed to meet considerable supoprt from a recent large sellers or local bulls on reactions and held fairly steady within a point or two of Saturday’s el—inf. Scattering realized seemed to be rather more active during the early afternoon and the mar ket gradually eased off to a net loss of 12 or 13 points.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 29.—Cotton futures opened steady at an advance of nineteen to twenty-four points on good cables and the knowledge that the sensational slump of Satur day was made on rumors from Washington that were entirely unfounded. The trade read the text of the proposed changes in the Clarke b 1J and bought cotton on it. Weather conditions were not altogether satisfactory and also caused some buying. Soon after tbe call the trading months were twenty-seven to thirty points up. There was much profit-taking by longs at the advance and offerings finally became heavy enough to check it. At the end of the first half hour of business prices were nineteen to twenty-four points up. At a level 27 to 31 points up on tbe nnst active months heavy profit taking came from the long side of the market and prices reacted, although the downward movement was not swift. Report* from the spot department were that offerings of actual cotton from the Interior were far from being free, while the demand, espe cially from the continent, was reported good. These accounts supported the future market and gave It a very steady tone at the decline. The forecast did not promise tbe settled condi tions desired in the belt and begrs were cautious In consequence. At noon the 'lallug months were 14 to 18 points over Sa card ay's last ques tions.

HAYWARD A CLARK COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, La., Sept. 29.—The Wash ington rumor which caused the break in our market in the last ten minutes on Saturday proved unfounded and Liverpool advanced as much as due; spots 3 points higher; sales 7,000 bales. We opened 18 points higher and advanced to 13.04 for December in the early trading. The market was firm with a bullish undertone, based on further rains In the central states, expectation of a very unfavorable weekly weather report tomorrow and a bullish govern ment report on Thursday; also on distant weath er indications pointing to further rains in the western states the latter part of this week, with probably tbe first cold wave of conse quence. Weather „condtlons over Sunday were better iq the western half of the belt. The map show's fair weather in the western states; no rain, but cloudy, in the central and eastern belt, with ‘further general rains In the central states; showers In the Atlantics. Warm weather; no frost anywhere, whereas last year damaging frost had occurred in the last week of September over most of the northern half of the belt. Indications are for fair weather in the western half, cloudy and showery in the eastern half; cold wave, possibly of some consequence, show- (By W> H. White, Jr., of the White Provision Company.)

Sept. 29.—Replies of cor respondents of , the Commercial-Appeal of aver age date of .September 25, indicate a condi tion of the cbtton crop on that date of 65.1, against 68.2 last month’s government report. This is a loss from last month of 3.1 points. The heavy rains that have recently visited the western belt were just beginning to fall at the date of this report so that any damage they may have done is reflected but slightly in these figures. Rains earlier in the period cov. ered by the report while doing some bar nr to grade, were of some benefit to the growing plant, especially in Oklahoma, where a Blight Improvement over the low condition of the previous month is noted. Cotton has opened rapidly and an unusually large percentage of the crop is open. Picking has gone forward fairly well although interfered with to a cer tain extent by frequent rains. There are a few complaints of scarcity or labor but as a general thing there are plenty of pickers and ^itb fair weather the crop will probably be gathered In record time, except in the Carolina* and Georgia, where much of the cotton is late and making of this crop will depend to a great extent uopn date of killing frost. This is the last report on the crop that .will be published this season in this paper. A crop estimate will be made some time in November: By states compared with govern ment figures of August 25. North Carolina TO, against 78; South Carolina 71, agianst 77; Georgia 73, against 76 ; Alabama 68, against 72; Mississippi 65, against 69; Tennessee 74, against 80; Arkansas 67, against 72; Oklahoma 47, against 47; Louisiana 60, against 63; Texas 03, against 64; total 65.1, against 08.2. JOURNAL OF COMMERCE REPORT.'-- NNW YORK, Sept. 29—Journal or Commerce says: Arkansas—Considerable damage is reported from rotting and sprouting in the bolls, but some correspondents do not consider this very material. Excessive rains have also delayed picking, but the per cent gathered is about the same as last year when it was 9 per cent picked. Grade has also been lowered and the prospects of a top crop are very poor, which was cut short by the drouth in August. Percentage Con dition is considerably below* last month" 'tfnd even lower than a year ago, when it was 71. Louisiana—Excessive rain and boll weevils have been the cause of serious deteiroatipn and percentage condition will probably be consid erably below a year ago, when it was *59.1 per cent. B0II3 are rotting and sprouting and top crop prospects are poor. Picking is about the same as a year ago, when it was 34 per cent gathered. Tennessee—August drouth cut the crop greatly and recent rains have caused further damage, especially to grade. It is doubtful if percent age (Auditions will equal a year ao at this fime when it was 70.2. Picking is well advanced, ebing about 12 per cent gathered, as against 4 per cent a year ago. Top crop prospects are poor, though a late frost would add to yield. NEW YORK COTTON LETTER NEW YORK, Sept. 29.—The market has acted nervous all day. Disposition of crowd has been to sell on all rallies. Brokers close to the larger spot interests have furnished .tlw$ principal support and have been constant? bay* ers, spinners are said V> bave been fair jjuy-i ers alpo. Commission houses sold and liquida-S tion has been rather general. The unsettled condition at Washington in reference to the cotton tax amendment is restricting trading to such - an extent that the market is easily in fluenced with moderate buying or sellings orders. The majority of traders are talking reaction. Among whom are a few of .the bulls who have lost their cotton and want to buy it back. Whether or not this decline will come de pends op weather conditions. Map indicates more unsettled weather for tne southwest.

The Next Contest T HE pens have practically all been filled for sometime. We can accommodate one more pen each of Buff Leghorns, Brown Leghorns, R. C. White Leghorns, Campines, and Partridge Wyan- dottes. We will have pens from all parts Of Missouri, the United States, Vancouver Island, Canada, and England, and we are importing thre pens from the New Zealand and Australian contestants who have been making such wonderful records in the contests of those countries. We expect to see if their birds will make as good or better records here than our own American birds. Tne records of the hens from these' several countries wi.l be watched with unusual In terest. We believe the American hens, which have been properly bred, will be able to hold their own with the hens from any country. The last few years many breeders have been paying closer attention to selection and breeding for egg- production and we expect to see the American hen and the Missouri hen hold their own. The hens which win in the next contest will cer tainly be the world’s champion lay ers. THE FEEDING TEST, PEN NO 69. This pen has laid 254 eggs less than the leading pen in the feeding test which is fed according to the Maine Experiment station method. Most Missouri farmers have all these feeds or can easily secure them. This method is as follows; Equal parts bran, shorts, and corn meal In hopper. In winter months feed two-thirds corn, one-third wheat in litter. In summer months feed one-third corn and two-thirds wheat. Grit and shell. Green food. Give buttermilk instead of water, twice each week. As this peji has laid 21 dozen eggs less in nine and one-half months than the leading pen in the feeding test, it seems htat we should not be justi fied in contenting ourselves with so simple a ration, and it also indicates that It might pay to proportion and compound it differently.. TWENTY THOUSAND. HEAR POULTRY GOSPEL. During the past two weeks there have been held, under the auspices of the Missouri Poultry Experiment Station, a series of nine poultry field meetings, each in a different section of the state. A total of fully twenty thousand people attended these meetings, making them by far the largest and most successful series of poultry meetings ever held in America. Each day’s program consisted of a band concert and a big picnic din ner at noon in some grove or park. In the same grove or park there were illustrated lectures and demonstrations in the afternoon, also an exhibit of pure bred poultry and eggs. Prizes were offered for the best pen of the various breeds, hatched in 1913, also for the best dozen brown eggs and the best dozen white eggs. The evening program was usually held In some moving piteture theater, where two reels of very fine moving pitcures were used to illustrate a lecture on, "The Care and Management of the Farm Flock.” A sample day’s prograin is as follows: Lecture “Selecting Pure Bred Poultry for Breeding or Exhibition Pur poses,” Judge E. C. Branch (Illustrated with specimens of the various breeds on exhibition.) Lecture, ”The Farmer’s Fool-proof Poultry House,” Ralph H. Searle, vice director Miss ouri Poultry Experiment Station. "Illustrated with charts showing the principles of poultry house construction, and details of the house which is giving best results at the Missouri Poultry Experiment Station.) Lecture, “Improving the Farm Egg,” Prof. F. S. Jacoby, Bureau of Chemistry, U. S. Dept, of Agriculture. (Illustrated with eggs/big and little, clean and dirty, fresh and stale, fertile and infertile.) Lecture, “Artificial Incubation and Brooding,” Reese V. Hicks, ex- president American Poultry Association. Lecture, “The Future of the Pure Bred Poultry Business,” G. D. Mc- Cleskey, business manager Poultry Culture, Topeka, Kan. Lecture, “Common Poultry Diseases, Their Prevention and Cure.” C. T. Patterson, Pathologist, Missouri Poultry Experiment Station. Lecture, “What’s a Capon, and Why?” George Beuoy, Cedarvale, Kan., "The Capon K(hg.” (During this lecture from six to a dozen cockerels were caponized. i Lecture, (evening) "Care and Management of the Farm Flock,” T. E. Quisenberry, director Missouri Poultry Experiment Station. (Illustrated with two reelc of moving pitetures.) The afternoon lectures were all brief and to the point—“an hour and a half lecture boiled into twenty minutes,” as one speaker aptly put it. One of the noticeable features of all the meetings was the marked attention given by the audiences, many of the people who could not get seats pa tiently standing throughout the entire afternoon sessions of two or three hours. The meetings were held at the following towns: Pacific, Centralia, Marceline, Orrick, Nevada, Neasho, West Plains, Mountain Grove, and Greenville. At each place they were held under the joint auspices of the Missouri State Poultry Experiment- Station, the local commercial, and the local poultry association. Undertaken as an experiment, these meetings have proven so success ful and have created so much , poultry enthusiasm in each community in which they have, been held, that they will become a regular feature of the poultry work in Missouri each summer.

As I am a subscriber to The Journal and enjoy reading your col- mns 1 want to know what to plant now that would make the best win ter pasture and that would be easily destroyed in > the spring, when to plant and how much per acre. Also I would like to know if alfalfa can be destroyed in the spring. Any in formation given will be greatly ap preciated. Would like for you to answer in The Journal of Tuesday or Friday’s issue, ANSWER. The best thing to plant for early green food is equal parts of rye, barley and witner turf oats. At least four bushels per acre should be planted broadcast on the ground and plowed under. Then a light sowing, say ten to fifteen pounds of rape per acre should be scattered broad cast over the ground and harrowed in. This will smooth the land and make a quick growth that chickens and stock will enjoy during the early fall months. The green can be grazed all the winter and by plowing In the spring can be easily destroyed, the land used for other purposes. Alfalfa is very easy to kill and one plowing will destroy it. But I have never yet seen a man who had a piece of alfalfa that wanted to destroy it. A good acre of alfalfa anywhere is well worth $500 and no man who ever has an acre of this kind will care to destroy it. I do not know of a man anywhere who has sin acre of alfalfa who would be willing to sell the acre for $500, and when it can be so easily gotten 1 &t a cost of not' over $20 per acre, it is a strange thing to me why it is more people do not have it. It is very easy to make a success if planted during the fall months. QUESTION. St. Mathews, S. C. I want you if you can to give me a remedy for my partridge size chickens. They just get limber in the neck and go with their heads to the ground and never get better until they die. Please let me know in the next issue and oblige. G. W. F. ANSWER. Your chickens have limbemeck, caused from eating putrid matter of some kind. They should be confined in clean yards and given soft feed with Epsom salts in it, or Conkey’s Ldmbernock Cure, so as to cleanse their systems, as soon as possible. They are dying with ptomaine poison and will continue to do so as long as they are allowed to get sour, pu trid food. It is hard to cure them unless taken in time. It is better to keep them away from this filth, and only by keeping confined .in yards do you know exactly what your chickens are getting to eat. NAVAL STORES Dispatch to Tha Journal.) .

Last year a writer on big business and big business men traveled from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast on a study tour. He wanted to make a first-hand scrutiny of the financial captains of various typical American cities. Almost without exception, the two hundred men (all of them noted as millionaires) whom this writer Inter viewed made the sam e reply to the following question: ‘How did you begin?” And the reply was: “1 began to save early.” “All capital,” said the writer, after he had finished his tour of study, and had interviewed many men (the thou sands owners as well as the million aires), “really begins with small sav ings. Almost without exception, save in those isolated instances where men have discovered a fabulous mine and i become rich overnight, the great for tunes of the United States originally j grew out of small accumulations of savings. “It was these that provided the nest egg, or the nucleus, which was availa ble at that supreme moment when op portunity poked its head in at the door.” Personally, I h$,ve observed that the really successful money maker is the one who takes his little pile of savings and goes questing after opportunity. But he goes with some pretty definite rules as to what opportunity must measure up to before he will exchange his savings for the chance to share in a venture. Almost without exception, I should say that the fortunes of successful Americans are built upon the ability to save and save again—-that they are the outgrowth of many experiments, but each one based on the ability to go back and lay the foundation (by say'- ing) anew after it has been swept away. “ in 15 to 26 days.
