STILL IT SOARSi*J'
A POINT IN CLOUD.
Forty Points Are Piled Up
Monday.
ELEVEN CENTS THE PROSPECT
Within a Day or Two at Tho Present
Rate of Advance—Future* Advanc
ed Forty Point* Monday and the
Market is Ballooning.
Eleven cents may be paid for spot
ootton in Americas today or tomorrow,
if one is to jndge by the strides made
yesterday when the market shot up
forty points and ten and three-quarter
oents was the price here.
Only another “quarter” is to be
gained, and that may b 3 easy.
Americas cotton men were agreea
bly surprised at the strenuous gain
yesterday, and are not surprised at any
figures now.
Cotton values are piling up at such
rate that "it is diffiioult to quote the
market. A jump of more than a half
cent yesterday, following the great
gains made during the past week, keeps
the talent guessing.
They simply dont know to what
height values may climb,
When the market touohed ten cents
a week ago it was considered the “high
water mark” aud at lOf cents several
hundred bales here went on the boards
and were thus closed ont.
Yesterday another quarter cent was
added to spot values and 10? oents was
quoted for good middlings by Americus
warehousemen, although no sales at
that advanced figure were reported
during the day.
The cotton now held in Americas—
just a few hundred baleß—is in strong
hands and the owners may have their
sights set higher.
They may want eleven, or even twelve
oents, for the fl9ecy.
And the concensus of opinion is that
they will get it. A jump of forty
points, as on yesterday, evidenoes the
demand for the aotnal ootton, and hold
era are not a bit nneasy. The market
is certainly going higher.
But while interest is fait in'onrrent
prices the farmers generally aye more
interested in what the staple will be
worth in September and October. Few
of them have cotton now, bat the new
crop is ooming on.
This, it is believed, will be a small
one and will bring a high pries.
My Cream, Rye and Graham Bread
has no cqnal. Why not get the best at
G M. Bragg’s Bakery.
