6 MUTT AND JEFF— A LOT OF LANDLORDS ARE IN THE SAME CLASS AS SPIVIS. BY BUD FISHER COTTON NEW YORK. Aug. 27.—The cotton mar ket opened firm at an advance of 35 to 54 points on higher Liverpool cables and private crop re]»orts, indicating a greater falling off In condition for the past month Ilian had been expected by recent sellers. There was heavy Liverpool buylg and heavy covering Which sent October tip to 25.43 and Deeem bei to 26.(17 right after the call or about 55 to 70 points net higher on the active po sitions. Liverpool cables said the market there had been influenced by the private crop figures. Three of the end-months re ports were issued, one making the condition 69 against 76.5 last month and the indi cated crop 12,750,000 bales while another placed the condition at 68.2 compared with 75.5 last mouth and the third made it 68.4 against 74.6. The weather map showing unexpected andtendesired rains quite generally in the belt served to stimulate the early buying movement. October sold up to 28.50 c and December to 26.78 c. or 77 to 78 jioints net higher, and 233 to 282 points above tlie low record of last Tuesday. This proved sufficient to attract realizing, and there was a renewal of scattering pressure which caused reactions of several points from the best late in the morning. Trading became less active toward midilny with buying checked by another private report making the condition 72.5 and the indicated crop 13.750,000 bales. The market was weaker during the early afternoon on rumors that British coal min ers had voted to strike. October sold off to 29.12 and December to 26.25. or about 10 to 50 points from the best prices of the morn ing. but steadied later on on rain and crop complaints from the south.

Aug. 27.—A private bu reau condition report of 69 per cent of nor mal, indicating a crop of 12.760,000 .bales, put the cotton market strongly higher to day on the opening. Buying increased when the weather map showed too much rain over the belt and during the first hour of busi ness advances were widened to 59 to 72 points. October rising to 27.24 nnd March to 25.20. There was much covering by •horts and a fairly large volume of fresh buying for long account. The weather forecast, calling for unset tled to showery weather over practically the entire belt, coupled witli reports of more inquiry in the spot department, increased the steadiness of the market,- Buying in creased and buyers found no great supply of contracts to work on. Toward noon prices were SO to 95 points up. with Oc tober at 27.47 c ami March at 25.33 c. Private cablegrams fromo England stating tbit the coal miners had voted to call a •trike for the early part of September Caused recessions of about 40 points, but the market recovered toward the close evidently on fear of another wet weather tnap in the morning, and the strongest months again stood about SO points 'np, October trading around 27.28 c.

GRAIN LETTER CHICAGO, Aug. 27,—Wheat: it begins to look as though the predicted liquidation of farm holdings which was expected to be enforced by the curtailment of loans would not materialize. This idea is gathered from the light offerings from the country reported from all sections. This condition has brought about relatively higher export bids, with premiums for cash the Highest on the crop. This markef~gives evidence of selling / still higher. Corn: Crop estimates and reduction in number of farm animals remain the factors which control sentiment in corn. Eastern demand is so slow and industrial buyers I are so leisurely that the premiums for the cash are overlooked. There is said to be an improved demand for old corn from the south and inquiries for the new crop from across the Canadian border. While admit ting that the present crop outlook war rants a crop sufficiently large to supply all needs, we are of tlie idea that this theory has become threadbare and that the mar ket is shaping itself to recognize the small amount of corn actually available for cur rent uses and the prices which it is com manding. Oats: Southern demand for oats continues rather brisk, and there is said to be a bet ter feeling abroad, although no export busi ness uncovered. Country holders are not pressing their surplus for sale. Tlie mar ket, like corn, seems to have discounted the bearish factors and is in a watting attitude. Provisions: The idea that surplus hogs have been well marketed is being revived in the provision list. It cannot be said that cash trade is brisk, but there is a better tone to the market. GRAIN MARKET OPINIONS Bartlett, Frazier & Co.: Country shows no disposition to press sales to arrive while the domestic demand keeps fairly good in oats. Hnlburd Warren: We continue to be lieve that the trend o| grain prices is downward. Harris, Winthrop & Co.: Think that an immediate resumption of downward trend is probable. Leland & Co.: Wlieat is strong in its undertone, but weakness in other grains has a tendency to temper bullish enthusi asm. COTTONSEED OIL MARKET Open. Close.

SHEPARD & GLUCK’S COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 27.—The lower range than expected of private bureau re ports on condition put the price of cotton higher today. Too much rain in tlie belt and prospects of still more to come were an additional sustaining influence.

On the question of keeping se cret all local subscriptions, Gover nor Cox quoted from' the official bulletin on August. 16 as follows; "The names and amounts subscribed by local donors should not be made public locally.”’ Gives Xt PubHcity "I hereby give it wide and non exclusive publicity/’ Governor Cox continued, “but why was the pub lication to be only the organ of the secret society? Why were the names of local contributors not to be made known? Was it because each contri bution would carry its own meaning to the voters jn the local communi ties? Or, if secrecy were guaranteed in the communities, were Mr. Hays and Mr. Upham to do the same thing in submitting their returns on box office receipts? Certainly there is some reason. What is ft? The public 'ft ent ft tl, ? tl t° know. If Mr. Hays and Air. Upham do not come forward with the information, the Republi can national committee ought to re move them both and Insist upon a clean bill of health. Furthermore there should be some explanation of this being made purely a business affair, participated in by business men and business men Only. Unex plained, it carries its ojvn condem nation and exposes the purpose of the whole shameful business. It means that the quota is to be assessed against those who are to benefit, and that the captains of industry who have answered Mr. Hays’ roll call are submitting to taxation with the un derstanding that they will have rep resentation. 1 The qouta plan. Governor Cox charged, was approved by Chairman Hays and Treasurer Upham, and also, he added, "it received indorse ment from a higher source.” Quoting from a "message” writ ten by Senator Harding, the Repub lican nominee, in the official bulle *ofc Au &ust 5, Governor Cox said that Senator Harding expressed his gratitude for “the enthusiasm shown” in raising the campaign fund. “That Mr Harding is acquainted even with the details of the enter prise is evidenced by a ! subsequent ?s aS a S s aS follows d : Governoi % “which “ ’Through the fine work of your organization, we are nearing that form of political patriotism which expressed itself in support from ev ery county, every state. Therefore, 1 >iant all members of your organiza tion to feel that their efforts are essential to our success in planning for national .enlightenment and deep? ly appreciated by me.' ” 1 “•Jh^Yi ern r ‘ said he depended wholly for the purpose of making proof of his charges” upon official documents which came from Repub lican headquarters. He did ftot plan to send his data to the senate cam paign investigating- committee, stat ing privately that the . committee could get its information from his address. Besides his statement on Repub lican finances, which he prepared with great care, the Deifiocratic can didate also discussed the League of Nations and industrial problems, urg ing settlement of strikes without the bayonet. o—4) 0 New Questions 1.

How much grain will the Chi cago elevators hold? , Questions Answered 1 q. — How are motion pictures made in which the action is so slow ed down that in games, such as tennis, you can see every made by the players? ’l. A.—Such pictures are made sty means of a camera which works a great deal faster than the ordinary camera. ... The ordinary movie camera will take 16 pictures per second. If a pic ture is being made of a man walk ing such a camera will give only 16 views of him in one second’s time. But the new camera used in making the “slowed-down” movies can take 160 to 300 pictures per second. Hence in a second’s time, this camera would take 160 to 300 different views of the man who is walking. 2. q. —How did the expression “dead ns a he’rring” come to be used? 2. A. —This is doubtless because of the fact that it is a rare thing even for fishermen to see a live her ring. The fish dies the instant it is taken out of the water. 3. Q. —Why is peace represented by a dove? 9. A. —The dove has always play ed a large part' in legend folk lore and religious symbolism. Because of its peculiarly mournful notes it was used in pagan funerals. This later passed into Christian usage, and the dove’s likeness, usually with an olive branch, was carved on most of the tombs in the catacombs be rfeath Rome to typify eternal peace. 4. Q. —How much of the build ing that goes on is for the construc tion of homes? 4.

The com ’bined “Lisle Thread National Bank,” the “Old Sox Bank” and the “Feath er-Bed-Mattress Bank” now hold more than $3,000,000,000 of the coun try’s cash. This is the estimate William H. Hutt, acting governor of the Phila delphia Federal Reserve bank, makes of the loose cash being car ried around in pockets and stowed I away in various places. Even a small proportion of this $3,000,000,000 invested in Liberty bonds would bring them back to par he pointed out or if the money was deposited in savings banks it would inject new life into Industry.

IIEDKITEDSMOKE' Pleasant and Easy to Use. Dr. Blosser is the originator of a certain combination of medicinal herbs, flowers and berries to be smoked in a pipe or ready prepared cigarette which is meeting with un usual success in catarrhal troubles. The smoke-vapor reaches all the air passages of the head, nose and throat. As the disease is carried into these passages with the air you breathe, so the antiseptic, healing vapor of this remedy is carried with the breath directly to the affe :te 1 parts. This simple, practical method, ap plies the medicine where sprays, douches, ointments, etc., cannot pos sible go. Its effect is soothing and healing, and is entirely harmless, containing no cubebs, tobacco, da habit forming drugs. It is pleasant to use, and not sickening to those who have never smoked. If you are a sufferer from catarrh, asthma, catarrhal deafness, or if subject to frequent colds, no matter how severe lor long standing, you should tiy Dr. Blosser’s remedy. To prove the beneficial, pleasant effect, The Blosser Co., ML 402, At lanta, Ga., will mail, for ten cents (coin or stamps) to any sufferer, a sample that will verify their claims by actual test. This trial package contains some of this Remedy macle into cigarettes, also some of the powder and a dainty little pipe (Advt.)
