The agricultural high school for tho Eighth district was not located yes terday by tho board of trustees at their meeting In tho office of Chan cellor Harrow on tho university cam pus.

Ho Is engaged In some j important cases here this week, and BY W FLAMES And the Household Effects of Mr. White Also Destroyed. Are Urged to Market Their Cotton More Slowly Until Prices Reach Higher Figures. The principal depressing factor In tbe cotton market at this time Is the too rapid selling of the staple by form ers and merchants. All kinds of mis* leading and exaggerated reports re garding the congestion ot cotton at compresses and Interior points are he* lng wired all over Europe and this country for the purpose of depressing prices. It cannot be denied that the movement ot the crop to market dur ing the past thirty days has been on too extensive a scale to maintain e stable market at profitable and satis factory prices to the growers. Big crop Ideas have been exploded by Indisputable facts. This crop will not be large enough to supply the enor mous demands of the cotton trade dur ing the next twelvo months. The prices of cotton goods In nil lines are weekly advancing. It Is due entirely to the existence of a "bearish” specu lative market, strengthened by the too rapid selling of spot cotton which is forcing down prices below a fair profit able basis. This unwarranted and Ille gitimate violation ot the true laws ot supply and demand will contlnno until spot holders strengthen their position by a slower movement ot the staple to market There Is hut one course to pursue at this time to bring about normal condi tions. Store every bale of cotton un der suuu anu safe protection, which can be possibly held, either on the farm or in local warehouses. Higher praam are sure to ho realized If the crop Is marketed intelligently. The present price of cotton Is too low. Every farmer In the South should re sist to tbe last ditch the present ef fort to hammer down tho market for purely speculative purposes. Every banker and merchant In the 8outh should exert their utmost to assist the farmers In fighting the "bearish" spec ulative cotton trade. Leading farmers, merchants and growing counties throughout the cot ton belt should call the people to gether In public meetings at once In their respective communities and In augurate an effective campaign for tlelng up the crop until prices ora once more placed on a satisfactory bn- sir.. Act promptly and effectively. It Is tho wisest and safest step to take at this time. Stop tho rapid movement ot cotton and the speculative ele ment will bo powerless to depress the market Yours truly, HARVIE JORDAN, President S. C. A. PURUCKER-MAXON.
