Owing to the heavy rains of the past few weeks cotton on sandy soil is a poor crop. It continues to shed too freely aud rust is developing very gen erally, while tile plant’s growth has stopped nt scarcely any top crop at nil stopped at scarcely any top crop. From tins condition cotton grades up to as good lipids as can be produced any time or anywhere, but, taken alto gether, die prospects fail considerably short of an average crop. Bolls are maturing and opening rapidly and pick ing will !ra a short time become general. The Georgia report of the week is In the main unfavorable.

Aug. 30.—The opinion that short selling of wheat had been too popular the post few weeks, obtained In wheat today. Whether the modest advance scored to- day was a forerunner of what was to enme, or whether It was only a natural rally, remains to be seen, but In any event shorts are beginning to feel the necessity for caution. The bull argument now Is the feeding of wheat; today’s sum. m * r ?’ t ie cr °l‘ conditions for the past week being the Cincinnati Price Current fini- n 5h^ r T,« ne w e tQ ' ublect and oo- ?u lh ,° dJfliculty experienced by millers In the interior In securing supplies, owing th f tenacity with which wheat Is held *5S tra de was without featuro unless the selling by holders of calls, when a prollt in their transactions were shown, It could o»e S A 0 c , alletl - -, Tllls ael *lng retarded the ad- vance for a time, but finally, the offerlngn were exhausted and prices made an nd,il- ^ *P? ta - December wheat opened at and 67i4 - dosing at o?a5<>4—%c. higher than yesterday.

The strength in wheat was of supplementary impor tance, however, aiding in the advance. May corn opened from 52*4 to 62V4; sold between B2&a52; closing at higher than yesterday. Cash corn was strong at higher. .- 0a i*r In additto b to a sympathetic feel ing between oats and the other grain mar kets, the great difference in prices be tween oat* and corn begins to attract at tention and the bill urged as a bull fac tor.
