NR\y YORK, Oct. 2.—Reports of. further heavy rains in the southwest, big English spot sales and higher Liverpool cables gave the local cotton market a firm opening this morning with first prices 10 to 16 points higher, new high ground for the season. The comparatively large ginning figures seemed to exert no spe cial influence but there was heavy realizing at the opening advance- This caused reactions °* ® or ^ Pointy during early trading, but rallies of 4 or 5 points followed and the, market showed a very steady tone in anticipation of a low government condition report .at midday.

Oct. 2.—Cotton futures opened steady at an advance of 6 to 9 points on unfavorable weather reports from the west ern belt, where too much rain again fell, and sensationally good cables. Not only did Liver pool reach much higher prices than dee to meet the fluctuations on this aide of tho water yesterday afternoon but sales of spots were put at 20,600 bales, the largest day’s. business in many months. Bulls claimed that this heavy trading in actual cotton was due to nervous ness among spinners over conditions in Texas and other states in the western belt. Tbe- cen sus bureau report on ginning of 3,287,891 bales up to September 25 was neither bullish iioi bearish, in any great degre. Hears claimed that it was larger than expected but pointed out that it was smaller than the returns of, two years ago. At the end of the first half hour of business prices were 9 to 10 points up. Toward the middle of the morning prices were 12 to 13 points up on the extremely heaty rains over night in Texas. The conditinon report- by the government at o’clock of 64.1 per cant, showing a loss of only 4,1 points for the month over the entire belt, and a loss of only 1 point in Texas, was a. great disappointment to the long side which immediately commenced to throw cotton overboard. Shores were free sell ers as soon as they saw the market give way and the result was a break of about a quarter of a cent. At the lowest the trading months were 12 to 14 points under yesterday’s last quo tations. Following this there was a reaction of about 10 points on.buying by bullish trader* who were waiting for a slump. Toward the middle of the day the market sagged again and at noon prices were 9 to 10 points under yesterday's close. NEW ORLEANS GOTTON.

This announcement was made at noon to day by the crop reporting board, bureau of statistics, in its final condition report of the season, the condition being estimated from re ports of its correspondents and agents through out the cotton belt. During the early part of tbe growing season this year conditions were favorable in the west ern cotton states and unfavorable In the east ern cotton states: as the season advanced, how ever, prospects declined In the west and im proved somewhat in the east. Until the latter part of the month which to day s report covered there was severe drouth in Texas, Oklahoma and southern Missouri, but this was broken very generally during the third week of the period, the heavy rains at points in those states as well as in portions of Ar kansas were thought to have caused some dam age to the open cotton. During the second week of the period high winds and heavy rains were thought to have caused, some damage in eastern North Carolina. In that week the drouth was reported as severe over much of Tennessee and portions of South Carolina while the drouth Taking the Hens Through Moult in Arkansas was considerably relieved. hi a . . a' YEAR. ..1913 - GINNINGS. 322,602 PCT.

NEW YORK COTTON LETTER NEW YORK, Oct. 2.—First came the gin ning figures which showed 3,237,000 bales ginned to September 25, which was bullish, though the crowd were inclined to sell on it and did so. The support all morning apparently came from brokers who usually act for spot interests. This class of buying together with the evening up gave a steady market up to noon when the condition report was posted showing 64.1. This was construed by the ma jority as bearish and general selling followed some of which came from Wall street and commission houses. The decline was stopped on buying by brokers close to the larger spot interests and Liverpool. General sentiment here is bearish and lower prices are predicted, but the offerings by those who have that belief are absorbed by strong people, and we must nor forget that the condition report of today indicates a crop of 13,000,000 bales, which would be far under the world’s needs.—An derson, : ESTIMATED COTTON RECEIPTS New Orleans expects tomorrow 1.100 to 2,100 bales, against 3,571 bales last year.

The shedding of the old feathers and the growing of the ntew plumage comes just at the time when the vitality o 1 the hen is at low ebb. The long laying season, together with the hot weather, have pretty well drained her strength and brought her to thte place where she needs special care if she is to go into the winter season in full vigor, and ready to do her share in replenishing the egg basket. In a normal moult, about four months are required for a com plete change of plumage, thfc first feathers beginning to fall about the first of July. During the fore part of the moult, egg production is not materially decreased. But as the process advances and the drain on the system incident to the growth of new plumage in creases, egg production gradually drops off until, by the first of Sep tember, it has practically ceased. As a general rule, egg laying, hav ing once stopped, will not begin again until the new coat of feathers is complete. Fortunate, indeed, is the poultry raiser who can successfully bring his hens througn the moult and get them to laying again by the middle of November. For, in that case, they will probably continue to lay right through the winter. On the other hand, if they do not get through the moult in time to commence laying before cold weather comes on, they probably will not begin laying until next spring. This is the reason why poultry- men who wish to produce winter eggs for market are so anxious to get their hens through the moult early. As a means to this end, some have advocated forcing the moult. This may be done by practically starving the ^ens for a week or»ten days, and then putting them on a heavy ration of rich food. While this treatment -o<.7 will cause the hens to moult quickly, yet careful experimental evidence has not shown it to be entirely successful in the matter of later egg pro- duction. This is probably due to the general shock to the system caused by the starving process, followed by unusually heavy feeding. It is the general concensus of opinion that it is best to let nature take her own course, while man simply sees to it that the environment in which t Lf, he “ J lves together with her feed and care, are as nearly ideal as pos sible. It is especially important that moulting hens be kept free from lice and tnat their roosting quarters be kept free from mites, scrupulously clean and well ventilated. Hens are more susceptible to disease during th’e moult than at any other time, and it is for this reason that special pre cautions in matters of cleanliness and sanitation should be taken The feeding of moulting hens should not differ greatly from the feeding of laying hens. Both eggs and feathers are rich in nitrogen so that food which is adapted for making eggs is also adapted for making feathers Feathers, however, are richer in oil than eggs, and some food of an oily nature should be added to the ration to supply this want. It has been de termined conclusively that the adding of a liberal amount of sunflower seed or flax seed, or oil meal, to the nation of moulting hens makes them moult faster, and leaves them in a stronger condition, with more vitality In conclusion it may be said that the successful handling of hens during the moult is a matter of con- _ ° stant watchfulness and attention to’t details, pertaining ,o feed, , water, care, housing, cleanliness and sanita tion. ■ - - WANTED HELP-rMALE U.

QUESTION, • *■ Birmingham, Ala. T have he^rd you spoken of so often, and have rqad so, much of your writings,;,in TJi,e Atlanta Jour nal that I fqel tb#Jt I kpow you. And j ^eling thus, I aipvj taking the liber ty of asking a little information. I want to know whether or not chickens have ktdnfeys. If they have, where are they located, and how are they to-be known? I would like to know, also, tak ing into consideration the differ ence- in the anatomy of domestic animals, and especially that of the hog, with his* habits, his mode of living, his diet, etc. Would you recommend' the same treatment for all animals? I mean in a general way pertaining to health. In other words, if a remedy that will prevent and cure hog cholera, would it seem absurd or subject to criticism or ridicule to also claim this same remedy to be a good con ditioner for all kinds of stock? I will thank you very much in deed for any information you may gi* r e me on these matters. W. P. G. ANSWER. Chickens have kidneys the same as people and animals. They are located in their backs the same as in people. In reference to hogs. Yes, the same treatment to prevent hog cholera with the right kind of germs should make immune and prevent different diseases among other animals when the right kind of cultures or bacteria is used for the disease treated. .For instance, cattle are treated for biack leg, lump jaw, and are inoculated against tick fever, the same as the hog is against hog cholera. But, of course, the cultures for each dis ease have to be suited for the pur pose they are used for, and all an imals will respond to treatment in the same manner. These different cultures are injected in the animal W ch hypodermic- needle and dose according‘ to size and age of animal governed accordingly. I do not think it would be possible to use hog cholera serum on other classes of* live stock or on any other dis eases other than hog cholera, as it would have no effect. It being a germ especially for this purpose it is only good for it. I hope this will give you the de sired information. If not, will go into further details for you. for selling 6 boxes of Smith's Rowbud Salve ui 25c per box.

I have given salts and sulphur for sev eral days which does no good. I have been giving them a tonic, germozone, fQr several days which helped them some. Will you tell me through The Journal what to do for them? They have a dry shed for their roost and I am at a loss to know what else to do for them. Thanking you for this in formation, I am MRS. A. G. H. - • • ANSWER. • Roup should be treated with germozone, Conkey’s roup cure or permanganate ' of potash. Salts and sulphur should be used for sorehead. It is not a good idea to use it for roup. One-half grain of permanganate of potash to one gallon of drinking water is the proper thing to give. It should be continued until the chickens are well.
