"BEST IN THE

COTTON BULLS
RULE AGAIN ON
PEACEOUTLOOK
ATLANTA, June 21.—Another
victory for the bull crowd.
While narrowness and irregularity
ruled in the cotton market early in
i the week, the market developed pro
nounced strength with fluctuat’ons
wide during the latter part of the
week, with values surging to new
high records for the year.
Final prices on the New 7 ork ex
change Friday were 92 to 138 points
above the closing quotations of a
week ago, while the list at New Or
leans exhibited a net gain for the
week of 82 to 115 points.
The market started its vigorous
upward movement on Thursday, val
ues soaring almost $lO a bale as the
result of aggressive buying fr -m
practically all sources and scant of
ferings. This was followed Friday
by another wild buying movement,
occasioned by persistent reports that
the Hun government had fallen and
that the new chancellor and his cabi
net would sign the peace treay imme
diately. Under the impetus of strong
buying values soared to new highs,
with July at New York reaching 32.75
and October 32.46. At these levels
the market stood more than 13 1-2
cents above the low level of January
for the July position and virtually
14 1-2 cents net higher for October,
or 235 to 266 points, respectively
higher than the week’s low levels, re
corded on Wednesday.
Other Bullish Factors.
There were many other factors in
ducing heavy buying, especially con
tinued rainy weather over the belt,
particularly west of the Mississippi
river. In addition to this the mar
ket was flooded with extremely pes
simistic crop advices. This wire
from Memphis is a typical evample
of some of the messages received:
“Entirely too much rain. Thous
ands of acres of cotton must be
plowed up and planted in other crops.
In addition to this trade houses
and spot firms, as well as Liverpool,
were frightened by decidedly bullish
spot news from all sections of the
belt. A strong demand was reported
in most sections with holders letting
go mighty slowly. Spinners were
good buyers of October after it cross
ed 31 cents, and there was active buy
ing of fall options by such well known
spot firms as McFadden, Gwathmey,
Weld and others.
Sentiment in practically all quar
ters bore a constructive color with
leading firms issuing bullish opinions
las to the future course of the mar-
I ket and advising the purchase of cot-
Iton around present levels, asserting
that conditions surrounding the mar
ket point to ultimate materially
higher prices.
Demand for Goods
Continued strong demand for goods
at higher prices also added weight to
bullish sentiment. Leading mercan
tile houses report their sales much
| heavier at this time a year ago, while
: manufacturers are operating to ca-
I pacity. News from the textile cen
ters at Manchester continued of a
most cheerful character.
However, many students of the
trade were disposed to await the defi
nite signing of the peace treaty and
further developments, but even those
I inclined to hold aloof were optimistic
■ in their expressions as to the future
course of the market.
There also was a disposition to
operate cautiously until after the
'government’s July report, which will
I give the condition of the crop as of
I the size of the acreage.
| While conditions so far this period
have been decidedly unfavorable in
the western half of the belt and more
bullish than otherwise in the eastern
and central sections the feeling pre
vails that the condition report will
be sensationally low, especially as
compared to June 25, 1918, when the
condition was 85.8, or an improve
ment of 3.6 points over May 25, 1918.

MR. RED FOX CHASES PETER
RABBIT
JIMMIE COON was very angry with
Uncle Snow Shoe and all the fam
ily that they could watch little Pe
ter’s run for life. Mr. Red Fox could
run and he turned and laughed at
the watching Snow Shoe Rabbits
every once in a while just as is he
would say “Now you will see some
thing worth while.”
As the chase led through the woods
all the Snow. Shoes and Jimmie Coon ;
and Teddy Possum followed along.
If you had been there you could not j
have helped admiring Mr. Red Fox, ,
he was such a lovely person to look i
at. His tail was such a lovely plume
and his red tongue and his wide
smile looked so pleasant that you

never would dream he could be any
thing but kind to little Peter Rab
bit.
But everybody following the chase
knew better. Jimmie Coon and Ted
dy Possum trembled for they hated to
have to go back to Mrs. Mollie Cot
tontail and tell her what a dreadful
with 75.6 per cent, as of May 25, last.
Figures below May’s will no doubt
cause a sensational spurt in the mar
ket. Unless extremely propitious
weather prevails from now on until
the period closes—June 25—the re
port will be very low.
Exports Keep Gaining. •
Exports for the week were 158,-
000 bales, against 90,000 for the
same period a year ago. Spinners’
takings for the week were almost 50,-
000 bales in excess of those of a year
ago, totaling 200,000 bales, against
159,000 in 1918.
Export movement will be given a
big boost following the signing of the
peace treaty, as considerable tonnage
is being held up on that account.
The signing of peace undoubtedly
wlil allow cotton to show its full merit
in the way of price, and, with the
world competing madly for the staple,
a small crop and millions to be cloth-
What Are
You Doing?
Yes, what are you doing to solve the problems of
readjustment? What can you do to keep each
workman at his bench, to keep his wages coming
to him each week, to make room for all demobilized
soldiers, sailors, and munition workers?
You, the ultimate consumer, you who control the
situation, what can you do? This, BUY NOW.
Keep the worker working, the seller selling, by
your buying today what you need. So buy wisely,
but buy what you need today.
Do what you can Buy what you can. Help all you can.

thing had happened to little Peter.
Now Little Peter was not so stupid
after all. He darted along. He
I didn’t seem to have any breath left,
but he came right up to Mr. Porcu
pine’s back door and he darted in.
This noise woke up Mr. Porcupine
and he grunted out, “What’s the
i matter, who is it. Can’t I ever get a
wink of sleep?”
“Oh, oh,” whispered little Peter,
out of breath, “help, help—hide mo.
| Mr. Red Fox is after me, save me-”
“Don’t you worry a minute,” said
■that good Mr. Porcupine, “you are
■ just as safe here as in a bank, and
j nobody can get you except over my
dead body.”
You should have seen Mr. Porcu
pine bristle up when he said these
words. All his tiny spears stood on
end.
The queerest thing happened. At
the very minute little Peter rushed
into Mr. Porcupine’s back door, just
that very moment Mr. Red Fox
thought he had him. Mr. Red Fox ■
looked over his shoulder to see what
the noise was behind and who were
following him, and at that very mo
ment little Peter disappeared.
Mr. Fox was more than surprised
when he turned,back to see neither
hair nor hide of little Peter. He
couldn’t think what had become of
him. He kept running and he ran
clear past the old log house of Mr.
Porcupine.
Then he sat down to think. He
looked for a hole in some tree, a
place that he knew little Peter would
choose to hide in, and he stopped to
look in three places, but no Peter.
This was very hard for Mr. Fox
when he was laughing so hard and
so pleased to catch little Peter for
supper.
Now what do you think happened'’
