MARKET REPORTS
(By Associated Press.)
NEW YORK, Dec. IS.—Cotton opened steady
at an advance of 3 to 5 points on relatively
firm cables, but Quickly weakened under re
newed liquidation or bear pressure which may
have been inspired by reports of an unfavora
ble financial situation abroad and large re
turns of linters. According to the census re
port published this morning 289,US bales of
linters bad been obtained up to December l
this year, comparing with 356.074 bales to Jan
uary 1. last season, and the most general im
pression around the ring appeared to be that
tr.:.s report indicated almost as large an out
turn of linters this season as last. A fair de-
(nftnd was encountered around 12.50 for March,
about 6 points under yesterday’s closing,
however.
Trading was less active later in the morning
and while a rally to a shade over yesterday’s
cising was not fully maintained, there was suf
ficient covering or buying for a reaction to
give the market a generally steady tope. Noon
prices were about net unchanged.
Prices ruled steady during the early after
noon, with active months 2 or 3 points net
higher on covering and continued reports of a
steady sjk>t situation.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
(By Associated Press.'
NEW ORLEANS. Dec. 18.—Cotton futures
:>pened steady at a decline of 1 to 2 points on
selling pressure from American hear interests.
The Liverpool market stood higher than due
and appeared to want to work even higher. The
pronounced bearish Sentiment that has been on
display on this side re6ently was again much In
evidence in the early trading and it weighed
against prices. At the end of fhe first halt
hour of business tue trading months were 5 to
8 points down.
Little attention was paid to the census bu
reau report on cotton seed and linters, al
though bulls pointed out that the total of
289.118 bales of linters produce^ up to Decern
her 1. was moderate and in line with the sta
tistics already published which point to a small
total commercial crop of cotton.
Later when shorts tried to take profits they
hid prices up on themselves and scalpers took
the long side for a turn. The demand gradu-
1 ally strengthened and became more than the
ring could easily meet. Reports from spot cen
ters In the 9outh were that holders of actual
cotton were standing firm.
Under some little excitement around the ring
the decline of the early trading was made up
and at noon the ttrading months were 4 to 7
points over yesterday’s close.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S COTTON LETTER.
NEW ORLEANS, La., Dec. 18.—Spot quota
tions from the central and western spot centers
of the belt, showed no rurther decline yester
day in spit of the lower futures in New- York.
This strengthens the belief that the liquadation
of the, weak holdings is over and that the con-
ract markets have to deal with spot resistance.
The Atlantic spot markets—which are more di
rectly under the influence of New York senti
ment and prices—alone show decline.
Liverpool again came in steady with futures
about three better than due, spot prices un
changed, sales 10,000. The severe decline in
English consols and acute weakness in the
London stock market were a source of' concern
and contributed to further easiness in our mar
ket this mortiing. March here declining to
12.81. There was, however, a disinclination to
sell, as spot resistance to decline seemed' more
dfinite, flutures are at a considerable discount,
and the short interest has increased. The idea
of reaction was strongei- and the market soon
expressed it in an advance to 12.88 for March.
Fear of a bearish census on Saturday alone
prevented greater support, but large ginning
figures seem to be discounted by the recent
break. The census report this morning gave
the number of seed crushing establishments
active to December 1 as 850 against a total
last year of S59 for the season, and 841, in
1911. Seed crushed from the present crop to
Deceiubev 1, 2,201,276 tons against a total
of 4,579,708 last season and 4,921,073 in 1911.

cember 1. 289.118; total linters from last year’s
crop 602,324 and 550,276 in 1911. This report

H. F. M’ELROY ANALYZES
THE GOVERNMENT REPORT
Hugh F. McElroy thus analyzed the govern
ment’s crop report:
*‘Th e government estimate of 12,677,000 bales,
of 500-itound weight, points to a commercial
crop of less than 14,000,000 bales running
weight. As the proportion of low grades and
unmerchantable cotton is acknowledge to be
unusually large, there must ensue actlv e com
petition for good grades during the remaining
eight months of the season before a new sup
ply can come into market, this promising the
spectacle of a steady and even urgent demaud.
The American farmer knows the situation and
is already showing himself a good merchant by
refusing in many instances to part with his
good cotton unless the lower grades are taken
at th e same time. With the buyer it’s a case
of the tail and horns going with the hide.
Mill stocks in New England are low for this
season of the year, due largely to the Indisiposl-
tion of banks to put out much money in the
face of the New Haven railroad losses in
that section, and the uncertainties surrounding
the currency bill in congress. Mills meanwhile
are running full time, and orders are in satis
factory volume. The pessimism so rampant is
apparently due more to apprehension of some
futbre depression than to any cause in actual
existence.'
“Southern mills are well equipped with or
ders, many of them running night and day.
As regards Europe, one of our leading exporters
explained the complaints from that quarter by
the epigrammatic remark that ‘the case with
spinners is not so much one of bad' trade as of
bad Judgment.’ Their sad mistake was in
booking orders freely without providing them
selves with the necessary raw material, wnen
It could and should have been bought at 11c
at th e time. With prices now 2c higher, they
naturally see only the dark side of things. Their
hopes of- added supplies from other countries
have been destroyed by the latest news from
Egypt, India and Russia, where, it now turns
out, the early estimates of big yields were not
estimates at all, but only optimistic hopes
expressed In figures.
“The realities are now before us, both Egypt
and India promising no Increase over last year,
vvhile the Russian outturn is very disappointing.
The conclusion is inevitable that prices for
American cotton, during the remaining eight
months of the season, will be on a higher plane
than those ruling before the bulk of the crop
passed out of farmers’ hands.”

Only a Few More Southern
Shows This Season
, HE south has certainly done
her part towards conducting
poultry shows and fairs this
fall and winter, and it is doing more
to enlighten the public ahd get them
interested in diversified industries
than any other line of work. It cer
tainly has had a telling effect on the
poultry and live stock industry of
the south and there are hundreds
of people interested in this line of
work now, aso in the breeding of
good seed that would have never
thought of such things had it not
been for thesj* public exhibitions.
Therefore, they should continue to
grow year by year until a public ex
hibition of some kind is conducted
in every little town in the state
each year. As there will only be a
few more poultry shows this sea
son you should by all means take
advantage of the opportunities of
fered at these and rftake a display
of some kind.
The show at Charlotte, N. C., is
on this week, the Birmingham show
next week. The next show in order
_ — is at Chester, S. C., the last week in
ecem er and one at Tampa, Fla., the last week in December. Then Dex-
ngton, Ky., the 5th to 10th of January. This will practically wind up
the show season throughout the south. Those remaining few «exhibitions
will ni£ny an opportunity to exhibit their birds and win some of the
onors that have not been fortunte to do so at some of the other shows.
Especially does Chester, S. C., and Tampa offer great inducements to the
breeders and these two ,exhibitions will be conducted in territories where
people are interested and an immense amoutn of business can be done. The
ampa show is being conducted by the board of trade and the public spirit-
ed citizens of that town, they having appropriated something like $5,000 for
s purpose. It will be free to all and it goes without saying that you ban
expect something great from this city. It comes at a time of the year
when a trip would be much enjoyed by the fanciers to Florida to see this
great section of the country, and there is no better open territory in the
world to do business than at Tampa. The same thing can be said in propor
tion at Chester., There is a live, wideawake set of fanciers at Chester, and
they are offering a handsome lot of premiums this year, and you can ex
pect a great show in this town. Quality is one of the main things they
w'ork for and you can rest assured some magnificent specimens will be seen
at this show.
There is yet time for other shows to be conducted in the south. It
is to be hoped that at some places that have not had their annual shows
will^ put on a threq-day show during February or March. A show conducted
in February as a rule gets more business for the fancier than at at any
other season of the year, because -it comes at a time when nearly every one
is beginning to set eggs and as a rule more orders are booked for eggs in
tlie show room during a February show than at any other time of the year.
I have never seen it fail. While many people object to having their birds
out of the breeding pens at this season of the year, a few days does not
hurt them and the difference in the amount of business received by far
more than compensates onei for the trouble they are put to in moving
their birds after they have been mated. It is a good idea in many com
munities for the breeders to get together early in the spring and if they
have to give a free public exhibition in the srpall towns it certainly does
lead to lots of business and many large shows are traced directly to the
small exhibitions conducted for a aay or so free in some of the smaller
towns. It is a splendid way to wa^e up enthusiasm and get people inter
ested in poultry shows and fairs. There should be a lot of this work doi>d
ouring this spring in many sections. It will get people interested that you
cannot touch in any other way and there is a great work ahead to oe
done in this respect throughout the entire south. The poultry exhibitions
are certainly business getters and w® cannot have too many of them. New
life has been instilled into the poultry fanciers throughout the entire south
this winter and a majority of the breeders are doing more business now
than at any time during the past two years. It is simply on account of
| the public exhibitions and the renewed enthusiasm brought about from this
line of work. Of course the more exhibitions we have the more enthusiasm
and more interest shown by those who are already interested and many new
on§s are added to the ranks by these public exhibitions. There is some
thing facinating about poultry little different from anything else and one.
cannot help but become interested when they see the magnificent displays
of beautiful thoroughbred birds and how much they are admired by their
Owners and the pleasure the owners d er iv® from them. It makes many be
come interested that would not be w ere not for these exhibitions. So get
them up and the more we have the
more business will be done by all the
fanciers.

QUESTION. i
Mount Clare), S. C.
Please send me your treatment
on sorehead in poultry. I have
several cases in my chicken fam
ily. I am a subscriber to The Semi-
Weekly Journal.
Thanking you in advance for your
kindness and hoping to hear from
you by return mail, I am,
MISS M. W.
ANSWER.
Sorehead seems to be raging this
year, and the sudden change from
hot to cold weather has made this
worse than it would have been had
the weather stayed warm. How
ever, it is so late in the season it
is not likely to do any heavy dam
age. One can readily see the im
portance now of beginning in July
and feeding a sufficient quantity of
sulphur and salts twice a week to
keep the chicken’s system in good
fix, ready to throw off this disease
when it appears. It will be best
now to feed one tablespoonful of
salts dissolved in warm water and
mixed with soft feed to every ten
chfckens one day, and the same
amount of sulphur the next day.
Permanganate of potash should
also be used in the drinking
water every day, and each chicken’s
head should be thoroughly saturated
in a mixture of one pint raw linseed
oil to which has been added two
ounces of carbolic acid. The car
bolic acid should be strong enough
to turn the sores black within eight
hours after it has been applied. Un
less it has sufficient strength to do
this, more acid should be added.
Mr. W. C. McMillian, of Colum
bia, S. C., is manufacturing a prep
aration that he claims by giving
internally will cure sorehead. I
have not had an occasion to try it,
therefore can not tell how good it
is. The price is 65 cents per bot
tle by mail, and if it will do the
■\york, which I have no doubt but
what it will, he has a small fortune
in it. There are several other
1 preparations advertised in The
Journal that are tried remedies for
this dreaded disease, I have always
had success with the treatment as
outlined above, and by raising
thousands of chickens as I do every
year I am compelled to use pre
ventives and not have it to contend
with, as it would break me up in
business if I did not know how to
control it.
QUESTION.
Atlanta, Ga.
Will you kindly give me some
advice about my cow?
About two weeks ago I noticed
several little brown spots on each
teat, and they have increased in
size until they are about a quarter
of an inch across and very sore,
but not raw. They resemble a
healing sore now, but they are get
ting worse every day. I can not
milk her and will greatly appreci
ate any advice -you will give me.
She is in splendid health, has never
been sick, is just two and one-half
years old, her first calf being about
four months old.
Thanking you ii) advance for any
favor, I am, J. C. D.
ANSWER.
Your cow has what is known as
cow-pox. A great many cows have
this trouble, and from these little
sores the vaccine that is used to
prevent smallpox is secured to in
oculate people against smallpox.
This is a very common thing
in /cattle. Very often when cool
weather comes the blood becomes
thick, they have a slight fever
and the udder and teats break out
.with these little sores. It gener
ally takes from one to three weeks
to run its course.
Tho best treatment to use for
some is a good antiseptic to wash i
the udder after each milking, one
part chlo-naptholeum or Bee Dee
Dip mixed with fifty' parts water
will dry up or kill the germs and
keep the soreness out of the udder.
One pint of raw linseed oil to which
has been added two ounces of car
bolic acid is also good. It keeps
the sore places soft and the car
bolic acid heals and kills the germs.
No\ cotton seed meal should be fed
to a cow in this condition. It is
best to feed wheat bran, corn meal,
beet pulp and plenty of green food
or alfalfa hay. It is also a good
idea to physic the cow good with
one pound of Epsom salts dissolved
in one-half gallon of warm water
as soon as these sores ,appear. Then
give two tablespoonfuls of salts one
day and the same amount of sul
phur the next day in the feed. This
will cleanse the system, purify the
blood and help to cure equally as
well as the local treatment. If it
Is neglected the udder will become
sore and will often get a cow in
the habit of kicking. Treat imme
diately as instructed and the
trouble will soon disappear.
QUESTION.
Atlanta, Ga.
Will you kindly give me some
advice about my litile Fox Terrier?
She can’t eat good. When she tries
to eat she makes a fuss with her
mouth like she is licking some
thing and it seems that she can’t
swallow good, and when she eats* 7
she scratches her mouth with her
front feet like she had something
stuck in the roof of her mouth. I
have examined her mouth. It don’t
seem to be sore. Her tongue looks
all right, also her mouth looks all
right. She has a little cough. Had
the cough, though, before she was
taken sick.
Please axlvise me what to do for
her, which will be highly appre
ciated. p_
ANSWER.
From the description given and
the actions of the Jittle dog referred
to, it is most likely that she is
affected with the dreaded disease
known as black tongue.
Up to the present time there has
been but few cases of this dreaded
disease cured. It has been unusually
fatal this year, and the only treat
ment that I have known so far that
has been absolutely sure has been
by the application of anti-toxine
that will have to be administered by
a veterinary surgeon. Either of the
veterinarians can post you on this
subject and if the dog is valuable
it would be best for you to consult
one about her. After this passes a
certain stage it is impossible to
cure and it is not wise to delay the
matter very long. Let the veter
inarian see your dog at once.
