IS Outlook This Year Better Than At Same, Time Last Year. Some Parts in B’ad Shape, However. ATLANTA, Oa. — (By the Asso ciated Press) — The general farm outlook in the Southeastern states la much more encouraging than at thla time last year, but there are areas in very bad shape from every standpoint, the bureau of agricultural economist of the U. S. Department of Agriculture declar ed In Its mid-month crop report for the states of North and South Caro llna, Florida, Alabama. Tennessee, and Georgia. Idle land In the worst weevil Infested areas, the report asserted, will run from ten to twenty percent duping the coming season. The movement of labor from farms to the Industrial centers continues, the review said, and the fanners are unable to meet tho competitive prices. The situation waa said to be serious in certain portions of Georgia, South and North Carolina. A general increase In fertilizers Is expected,'according to the re port except In North Carolina and North Georgln where the weevil was active during the past season. LIVESTOCK CONDITION IS 8AID TO BE GOOD GEORGIA livestock Is in unusu ally good condition on account of tho mild winter, the report assert ed, adding that the condition of range cattle Is poor in Florida. Movement of hogs is brisk except In Florida, where they have been waiting for cooler weather. Florida reports heavy move ments of cabbage, celery and let tuce and preparation of ground go ing forward fn a rush for melons In the Southern belt The Florida cantolopo acreage Is estimated to bo large this season. The general tendency for increased crop acre ages Is reported from all over the territory and the truck crops are good but growing too rapidly.

NEW YORK COTTON NEW YORK—The cotton market opened unchanged to 14 point* net lower, with near months relatively firm on continued covering t»y March nhorts o trade buying. It seemed however, that the advance of lute Inst week had eased the techincal position to some extent nnd the later months were casie under realising or selling for eactlon which was pro moted by lower Liverpool cables than ekpected and reports of continued “nuimwi" good weather In the south. March St#^ Louil, Mo., H. S. Phillips, CALCUTTA—Brigadier Gener al George Pereira, qf the British army, saw active service in both the South African and European wars, and in spite of these experi ences and his 58 years, the love of adventure in thla soldier was to strong that he started alone two years ago on a 7,000 mile journey of tho utmost difficulty. So far as the records go, no man had ever before made the trip the General selected for his adventure. He cov ered half the distance on foot, and is now in a Calcutta hospital re covering from the effects of some jf his hardships. _'\t> After the armistice General Pereira was sent to Peking asvmll- itary attache to the British i em bassy. In January of 1921 he was ready to go back lo England, but his sporting instinct had .been aroused by tales of the difficulty of travel through certain sections of China and he jeceived neTtris.- sion to make his way overland to Calcutta. The first lap of his journey was luxurious, a firet-class coach from Peking to Tientsin. Thence a "hinese cart carried him to Shansi. When he had crossed the Wangho he proceeded, partly by. train, to Lciyang where he was the guest of General Wu Pei-fn, who was busily engaged at tho lime in lead ing a widespread political and revolutionary movement against the constituted authority. General Pereira visited Sianfu, the old capital of tho country, and climbed She Hwashan, one of the sacred mountains of China. This climb was extremely difficult. The mountain consists of great rocks, with steep, zig-zag paths winding upward between them. Tho paths are cut into the rocks in the form of irregular steps, some of which ore a foot or two in height. At the sides of these paths arc precipit ous drops of 2,000 feet or more. The climb had to be made with the assistance of iron chains. The General’s itinerary . then took him through the bandit In fested provinces of Shensi and Szc-chuen. In one of these prov inces there are reported to be 50,- 000 brigands. Just before General Pereira went through a mission ary lmd been captured by these da- coita. These two provinces, ac cording to General Pereira’s re port, are in a state of utter chaos. They do not recognize the author ity of Peking. It is practically im possible to travel through either of them without making some ar rangement with the brigands. General Pereira visited the mag istrate, who discussed the .matter with the brigand leaders. The traveler was then allowed to pro ceed unmolested. A journey was next made into the Tachientu district, a region of China inhabited by Tibetan tribet. General Pereira from there work ed his way northward through more country inhabited by these tribes, and then up the river into Kwansu. Here he met Prince Chor- ri, who has a vast tract of terri tory under his Jurisdiction and is the most Important Tibetan prince in the province. Hero the General spent some time in hunting with the prince. Then came a tedious journey across northern* tern Tibet, and General Pereira says it was a great relief to get into Jeqkundo, where he found a few shops and could replenish his wardrobe. Here he met Madame Neel, a French Buddhist, who was the only European encoqntered dur ing the entire Journey across Ti bet down to Cyantxe, which is a British trade center. From Lhaiaa. the Journey to Calcutta lay along a fairly fa miliar route, and the going was continued relatively firm but eased off to 28.30 shortly after the call, or Helling for reaction which was pro- niontlin werre easier under realising 25 points with May selling at 28.60 nnd July at 28.00 during the early trading. Trading was very quiet during the middle of the afternoon and about the only feature was the relative firmness of March contracts as a re* suit of scattered selling and furthot trade buying. March sold up to 28.48 making u new high price for the day and a net advance of eight points while later months were about one to two points net lower, with May Mel'ilng at 28.77 around 2 o’clock. Trade Interests seemed willing to buy March at about 32 points under May but the demand for the near month, combined with further scat tered covering In later deliveries, ;ave them a fairly steady undertone •luring the middle of the morning. May rallied from 28.60 to 28.69 and July from 28.09 to 28.19 but this ad vance was not fully maintained nnd the market was quiet at midday with active months ’about 8 to 10 points net lower.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON NEW ORLEANS—Depreaalon* of 12 to 22 points were made ip the first half hour of trading In cotton today, selling being stimulated by poor cables and a favorable opinion of the weather over the greater part of the belt. While temperatures re mained low. little rain foil over the week end. Mfcrch declined to 28.28 cents a pound and October to 25.20. Some good buying and a fear of the outcome of the first March no tice day, which will be Friday, put the market to its highest levels. March ose to 28.55 with the most active months 2 points down to nine up compared with the closing quota tions of Saturday. Partial recoveries were caused by reports from the Carolinas received by local brokers that spot merchants wero beginning to refuse to sell spots to mills for delivery during the fear that they would be unable tg aecure the cotton.
