THE CONSTITUTION,

THE COTTON MARKET.
(Copyright. 1901. by The Atlanta Constitution
In view of the recent upward l«-n«leitcy
of the cotton market, several have asked
my opinion of the future course of prices.
One vohm the desire of many (doubtless)
»l»n asking whether cotton will “go
to !<• cents by next spring." In reply
to these inquiries, f ant cotMitrained to
say "I don’t know;” and any mere opin
ion that might be expreaaed might have
but little foundation on which to rest.
Many of the estimates of the tinal out
com of the crop arc nothing more
than the merest gmsscs; others are bas»<l
on more or less careful com|»arison of re
ceipts and shipments; still others on th«-
opiniot.s of thousands of selected and
mort •>■ less intelligent and < ar- ful corre
spondents 1 h ive long been of the opin
ion that some of the estimates, if not
most of them, are but the results of av
eraging th< « stlmates of others previously
made and published, and have attached
but little importance to them so far as
the individual knowledge of the author is
concern*’*!. If the average of sor !'• or
a dozen estimates be. say 16,oO,o«> bales,
that will s. rve as the basis of the next
“expert” estimate, and so we may get
nearer and nearer the final anil conclu
sive report based on the sum total of |
“actual receipts."
I have never felt inclined to adopt tin- :
role of an expert estimator but pref«‘ r to |
leave the work to others. Yet. I freely '
admit that the consensus of the opinions
and estimates Is very apt to Influence on
judgment and to some extent control in
dividual action in determining wheih 1 r
to "hold cotton" or "to gell." It veen'.s
that the estimates of the department
statistician have usually command's! the
coiitidence of those int< rested in the cut
ton market t<> a greater extent I han those
of deal* rs in cotton —who are directly
int< rested in one way or another in th
out ’ome of the »-rop I h tve. then fore,
always felt lnclln«-d to twlleve in th. de
partment estimates rather than in others,
ami have l>e. n more influenced by them
When, therefore, the liecmls figures
were glv«n out. showing an estimate o'
only '.ftUl.txW bah s as the size of the pres
ent crop, it was re.-eiv-d with x-onsidera
ble surprise. For mvs« If. I will say that
if I had an Individual crop "f my own
liroduction. or within my control, and
had no debts to pay out of Its pn <-c« ds.
I would hold it for b tter prices, widch.
I iM-lieve. will be offered in the near fu
ture. It is about the only way I give
advice about selling or holding, viz. bv
saving what I exp et to do myself. I
have never Mt that degr confidence
in the f'.ttun course of the cotton mar- i
kei a« would Justify me in absolutely
advis'ng •dhera what to do. My reply
therefore, is I am going to hold mv cotton
for l-’tter prices, but joti can do as you
ph . I'••n’t bank on my Ju<lgment
and if loss results lay th< blame on m»
even In th- slightest degree.

haw r<ad your lett.rs with inten-st and
oft. n isked for a remedy to remove
warts <>n sto k. Having •ne that I iiav
tri. d in a number of cas. s with perfect
sutvess. 1 wish to give it to the public.
Split the wart open, insert a small por
tion of corrosive subimutle wrapp-d up
in tissue i»aper. Tak- a stitch over inci
sion to hoid it in; tie th. animal up a few
days so it can t get its mouth to the
watt Now 1 wish to say that s. v. ral
wars ago 1 had a Very lin- young horse
that had s«*v«Tal warts, one on left hind
leg ->s I irge as a goos.- «-gg, and l tri. d
,t number of r.*ni.**ii..s without avail. At
' ’• tigth a neighbor told me of his • x|«-
rieiKv with als.ve remedy. With his as
sistance we applied it. a.nd In a short
time not only that, but all the wans on
horse were remov.M and haired over
without leaving a scar. Again, 1 had a
~.w with one on bind quarters, and

CilltONIC FOUNDER.
T F. Barker. Summ-rfleld, Ala—l have
x tin. mar. 7 wars old that { traded for
a few .iavs ago. Th. mare Is very sore
in tii<- front feet. Feet rather long and the
i ir«.g is in a bad lix: hanllj any frog left.
v. it. you touch it i’ to
•t. nder. When the mare lirst starts off
she can hardly go for a few hundred
vards. after that you can hardly tell there
is anything wrong. Th- fast, r she g.a s
the b it hurts her. Wiial do you think
■ the troullie is. and can it be cured? The
mare has been in city and kept shod a'.i
of h-r life Would it help her to pull
off shoes and keep her plowing on soft
I ground?
; AMnwer—l think the mare has been
badly foundered and now has what is
railed "chronic founder." You have
prol.ibly made a "had trade" and it is
lairly certain that you will never lie able
to cur. h-r of the disease. Much may be
, done to alleviate th- symptoms, by isiul
ticing the feet, blistering the coronet and
confining her work to plowing. I would
' pull off her sh. H-s and keep her only for
work on soft ground.

load an l had some hard pulling to do.
W hen I r.a< h. d mv destination I let
her stand a few minutes and took the
harness off. Site began to reel and fell
to th- ground and continued getting up
and falling as If she was shot down.
When striking the ground she vvoual
bounce up its quick as she possibly
could--almost instantly. She continued
falling and getting up th s way for seven
or eight hours and then lids i..ga>i to
siibsf 'e and w.m’d not coni' on so olt.n,
but did not flnafly <|tilt her for a
or longer. H.l'oie l.illing she would

order, and 1 am using her some, working
her to wagon and rid ng her. though she

h. r head; kinder holds it to one side an l
seems to htive a nervous prostration in
the head Will you please give me a
remedy for this through Th<- Constitu
tion? Hope you will bear with me lor
Im ing so lengthy.
Answer-I think it is a case of vertigo
or megrims, an affection of the brain,
due to some obstruction in the veins
that lead from the brain. The heavy
pulling up grad, was a sutlieient deter
mining cause. It will reqiiir.' the pres

course. I expect to try the above pmn

I want is to get rid of the Johnson Class

Answer-I beg to refer you to the
Weekly Issues of S. ptemb.r !•. !*> Ti and
30. and October 7 ami 14. particularly
these of September It. and 30. Then ar.
also articles about Johnsen grass-pro
and con—in many previous issues. Tht
subject has b?»r. pretty thoroughly ven
tilated, the in ijority of the letter writers
being le.-idtdly opposed to tlie cultivation
of this grass, while a small but vigorous
minority, headed by Hetbert Post, of
F'.rt Worth, ’lex., wi-.-.m I have called
the "Aixtstn of Johnson Grass.” insist
that it is very valuable hay grass: that
i. can be easily eradicated when so de
sired; that it is worthy of extended cul
tivation. My own conviction is that a
careful, painstaking and industrious
tanner may safely t.ainl it; but tlie aver
age southern farmer, and especially tin se
who give but little personal attention to
tlu ir jarips, would oo w.-li to st. er < lea.-
of it.
Some of the advocnt'S .1 the grass (i
bt.ieVe Mr. Post atm ng ih< ul) cla.m that
u good crop of oats may be
made on a field set in J.. hnson grass.
Per.-onaily 1 have had no e.xperi. n.
You who have "jOo acres of good prairie
land. one-third of which is literally
taken gy Johnson grass," ought certain
ly to have gained valuable ixp.rieii.-c.
either for or against its culture. My
Judgment is that if any crop can b<- mao.
on land thoroughly occupied by Johnson
grass til.it crojt is oats, because tin oats
.to most of their growing before the grass
starts in thA spring, t'rim-oii clover,
vetch and rescue grass might also suc
ceed for tlie same reason. Tlie thing tor
you to do is to try each <>f the crops you
propose, <>r suggest, ami then you will
"learn for yourself" wheth.-r any one of
them may do.
I do not remember to have heard that
cow p. as will md grow well on prairie
land. If you will write to Mr. Herbert
Post. Fort Worth. Tex., he will send you
printed detailed directions for utilizing
or for destroying Johnson grass.

; State Revenue Agent Adams continues
his search for solvent credits with un

I About three years ago the mercantile
firm of R. A. Hilton an.l W. T. Hilton.
of i’earl went into bankruptcy, the .la
bilities being about $20,000 with assets '
1 for <.nlv a small portion of the sum. On
invest gation by the referee it was found
th it the father ot the members of the
firm. A. C. Hilton, claimed an indebted
m-s-i of sK>.'»»i on a promissory note given
bv his sons, and the father took posses-

this claim. Th ■ validity of this transac

State Rev nllt . Agent Adams now brines
proceed.tigs to recover tin- taxes on this

it seems that the d« fondant must either
