it came also 1,312,400 Tons of
' 20 per cent
MANURE SALT
which has the same effects on Cotton, but which was
used mainly in mixed fertilizers.
Shipments of both Kainit and Manure Salt have
been resumed but the shortage of coal and cars and
high freight rates make it more desirable to ship
Manure Salt, which CONTAINS 20 PER CENT OF
ACTUAL POTASH, instead of Kainit, which con
tains less than 13 per cent actual Potash.
. (MANURE SALT can be used as a side dressing
on' Cotton in just the same way as Kainit and will
give the same results. Where you used 100 pounds
of Kainit, you need to use but 62 pounds of Manure
Salt, or 100 pounds of Manure Salt go as far as 161
pounds of Kainit.
MANURE SALT has been coming forward in
considerable amounts and cotton growers, who can
not secure Kainit, should make an effort to get
Manure Salt for side dressing to aid in making a big
Cotton Crop.
Muriate of Potash
50 per cent actual Potash, has been coming forward
a ] BO , —loo pounds of Muriate are equivalent to 400
pounds of Kainit or 250 pounds of Manure Salt.
These are the three
Standard GERMAN Potash Salts
that were always used in making cotton fertilizers
and have been used for all these years with great
profit and WITHOUT ANY DAMAGE TO THE
CROP.
The supply is not at present as large as in former
years, but there is enough to greatly increase the
Cotton Crop if you insist on your dealer making the
necessary effort to get it for you.

party and that Johnson will be the
nominee. .
The Republican leaders will make
every effort to keep Johnson in line
and while they think a third party
is unavoidable they will try to pre
vent Johnson from leading it.
So far as the Republican leaders
are concerned, they are satisfied
with the conservatism of Major Gen
eral Wood and Governor Lowden.
Either one would do.
Women for Hoover
The victory of Johnson in Califor
nia doesn’t disturb them, for they re
gard the votes for Hoover as a re
flection of the conservative senti
ment of California. It is strongly
suspected here, moreover, that in San
Francisco, where Johnson’s vote was
so large, anti-treaty Democrats voted
in the Republican primaries by the
thousands. This view is confirmed
by a telegram just received by the
writer from a trustworthy source in
California, which reads as follows:
“The Democrats were split about
fifty-fifty between Hoover and John
son. Both sides claimed them, but
Johnson through superb organization
got away with the majority of the
Democratic vote. Most of the Hoover
vote came from the women and that
class of people who have not in the
past paid so much direct attention to
politics. Behind Johnson were Mil
ton K. De Young, formerly chairman
of the Democratic committee of Los
Angeles; Joseph H. Call, Joseph
Scott (an Irish leader hitherto in the
Democratic party); J. O. Snyder, the
last Democratic candidate for lieu
tenant governor; all of the Hearst
Democrats, and Senator Phelan’s
Democratic lieutenants in and around
San Francisco, the latter because of
an agreement on the part of Johnson
to support Phelan’s re-election for
the senate. There is no strong Re
publican candidate running for the
senate and Phelan has made good
for California, according to the judg
ment of leaders here, and they are
proceeding on the theory taht a Re
publican conservative mtfst be nom
inated.”
The KKnox Boom
The booming of Senator Knox, of
Pennsylvania, by his astute col
league, Senator Penrose, isn’t a pass
ing fancy of that veteran politician.
It Is a shot across the bow of the
Johnson ship. Mr. Knox is an ir
reconcilable opponent of the treaty.
He stands on exactly the same ground
as Senator Johnson. He has de
nounced the treaty as too harsh and
cruel upon Germany. If the Republi
can convention should be confronted
by the Johnson followers with a de
mand for a stand on the treaty such
as Johnson has taken, Philander C.
Knox, former secretary of state,
would be offered as the typification
of the Johnson viewpoint. Lowden
and Knox or Wood and Knox wouldnT
be a strange combination for presi
dent and vice president.
For, while Mr. Knox reflects the
viewpoint of the Johnson followers
on the peace treaty, nobody would
for a moment call him a radical. He
is a tried and true conservative with
a record in Republicanism that is
unquestioned. The third party is
coming. The game now is to keep It
from drawing too many Republicans
and at the same time to encourage
it as a place for the protest vote, the
disgruntled Democrats, the radicals
and. other elements whose acquisi
tion by the Republican party might
be embarrassing. The Democrats arc
taking renewed hope. Five
hence the conventions will tell the
tale —and there probably will be a
third convention.
Thieves Steal Clothes
Off Dummy and Loot Home
NEW YORK, N. Y.—Alexander
Dickson, well known Brooklyn oper
ator, finding that burglars had brok
en into his soon-to-be home in that
borough, done $1,500 worth of dam
age and stolen goods valued at ?300,
stuffed an old suit of clothes with
straw and excelsior, put an overcoat
and a hat on the dummy and placed
"him” at a dining-room table, where
other would-be burglars might see
him from the street. The dummy
appeared to be reading a newspa
per.
"There,” Mr. Dickson said to Miss
Anna, his daughter, "that ought to
protect us against another visit.”
But it didn’t.
Two days later Miss Helen, an
other daughter, visited the house.
She heard footsteps upstairs. There
was a bit of commotion up there
and then the noise stopped. The
intruders had escaped via the sky
light and neighboring roofs. Miss
Helen looked for the dummy "watch
man.” He had been reduced to ele
mentary excelsior. The thieves had
stolen every stitch of his clothes.
The Dicksons were forced to find
new quarters when Mr. Dickson, sell
ing several houses in Flatbush, dis
posed of his own residence. There
was no gas connection in the new
house and, while waiting for the
gas company, the family went to
a hotel.
“The first visit,” the real estate
man said, "was not from ordinary
burglars. Things they did .not want
and had no use for were smashed,
among them a copper inlaid desk
worth $l5O. Hanging on one of the
walls was a framed case containing
my Masonic certificate. They smash
ed that to smithereens. The piano
looked as if they had gone at it
with an ax. I think I could grin and
bear the thievery, but this spirit of
destructiveness makes me sore, and
I want these people punished.”
Rich Indian Is Fleeced
LINCOLN, Neb., March 24.—" Li
ttle Feather," a member of the Osage
Indian tribe of Oklahoma, whotee
royalties from oil lands he claims
are SI,OOO a month, was arrested
here as a vagrant.
The Indfan says he left his home
with plenty of funds to see a little
of the world, but fell in with white
gamblers who got his money, and
when he reached Lincoln he was
penniless. »
The police were convinced of the
truth of his story and he was dis
charged when means were supplied
to send him home.
Newfoundland Ice Bound
HALIFAX. Immense Arctic ice
packs, black with walrus and seal,

Newfoundland is icebound and

moreover that since the receipt of
these returns, which bear the average
date of April 2, weather conditions
have improved considerably. In many
parts of Texas the drought has been
broken, while in other states where
excessive rains have delayed opera

Alabamians to Fix
Cotton Goods Prices
BIRMINGHAM. Ala.. May 4.—Tentative
prices for cotton fabrics throughout the
country were to be formulated at a meet
ing here this afternoon between mill own
ers of Alabama and Frank Spain, federal
fair price commissioner. The object of the
meeting, Mr. Spain explained, was to fix
a that will be put into effect in all
sections of the country.
The earliest silos of history are
traceable back. t<? the Syrians who
had pits i:r the ground for the stor

COTTON
NEW YORK, May s.—Buullish crop ad
vices caused a further advance of 10 to 20
points at the opening of the cotton market
today, with active months selling about 22
to 33 points above last night's closing dur
ing the early session. This carried July up
to 38.60 c and October to 36.25 c, and there
was enough realizing to cause some irregu
larity. Private reports of rains in the cen
tral belt and the report of a New Orleans
authority indicating an acreage about the
same as Ist yer were the chief factors on
the advance.
The official weather map failed to con
firm the private reports of heavy rains in
the central belt, but showed beneficial rains
in the southwest and prices sagged off later
in the morning under realizing. July sold
down to 38.78 and October to 35.98, or
within a few points of last night’s closing
figures. Part of the selling was in antici
pation of a bearish weekly report from the
weather bureau, which proved no more fa
vorable than expected and was followed by
a spurt of havering, which caused rallies
of 6 or 7 points early in the noon hour.
New Orleans and Memphis were buyers on
the early afternoon advance to 38.60 for
July and 36.28 for October, or 24 to 40
points above last night’s closing. The mar
ket turned easier after 2 o’clock and prices
reacted several points from the best.

. NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS, May s.—After a decline
of 10 points on July, in response to a lower
Liverpool market than due, tht price of cot
ton was lifted strqngly today by buying
based on a private bureau repirt showing the
same area to be planted to cotton this year
as was planted last. In the first hour of
trding prices advanced 26 to 35 poists, but
at this level the buying slowed down, plainly
because of expectations of favorable crop
reports from the government for this last
■week. July fell off to 38.10 c and reacted to
38.46 c.
While the weekly crop reports were con
sidered to indicate fair progress over the
belt, on the whole they were not favorable
enough to cause much selling. Following
their reading July fell off to a net decline
of six points and October eased off until
it stodd only 13 points over yesterday’s
close, but effective support was given the
market and the selling movement did not
persist. Late in the morning prices were
2 points under to 27 points over the finals of
yesterday.
The demand Increased and early sellers
bought back their cotton. aLte in the day
the market was at its highest, standing
26 to 65 points over the closing quotations
of yesterday. January was the strongest
month, and it touched 34.92 c.

JOHN F. CLARK & 00. COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, May s.—Market opened
up on May, about 10 down on July and 15
to 20 up on new crops on the showing pre
sented by May and July in New York,
which showed again up to 30 points from
the start, creating the opinion that special
support may again be at work in old crops
and causing buying on this basis. Bullish
effect "\vas also expected from the passing
of the peace resolution.
The weekly report is mixed, but on the
whole caused a favorable impression to pre
vail.- However, the intention to buy pre
dominated and caused a 20-point rise to fol
low its reading.
Summary.—Rainfall ranged from none to
light in central and western portions and
from moderate to heavy in the eastern por
tion. Temperatures generally seasonable.
Satisfactory progress made in planting ex
cept locally, where too wet. Planting is
under way to the northwest limit of the
belt. Cool weather caused poor germination
in North Carolina, but stands ftre fair in
South Carolina. Germination poor in Geor
gia, Alabama and Arkansas, but cotton is
up, and made satisfactory to very good
progress. The crop advanced satisfactorily
in Louisiana and eastern Texas, but is too
dry in west Texas. Chopping is progressing
in northern districts.
SHEPARD & GLUCK COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, May s.—The Times-Pica
yune report showing practically the same
acreage as was planted last year was the
main bullish influence in the cotton mar
ket today and it was felt throughout the
session the weekly crop reports from the
government reported encouraging progress
with the crop, but they were not favorable
enough to encourage selling on a sufficiently
large scale to overcome the effect of the
acreage report. Sentiment is mixed and for
the time being it is a trading market with
the advantage slightly in favor of the long
side.
