COTTON
NEW YORK, Sept. 27.—There was a re
newal of active general renewal of active
general selling in the cotton market at the
opening today, and all months made new
low records. The selling for southern
account was particularly active, leading to
.rumors of further weakness in the southern
•pot markets, while there appeared to be
very little demand, aside from the profit
taking of shorts. First prices were steady,
unchanged to 27 points lower, and the active
months soon showed ret losses of 35 to 70
points, with October selling at 24.97 c and
January 22.15 c. London reported a more
optimistic tone in the stock market there
on the prospects for a settlement of the
coal dispute, but Liverpool showed no im
provement, and bearish sentiment here was
promoted by Sports of further price cutting
Ud a run on another Boston bank.
Trading was more active than at any
time for months, and the feature was the
heavy selling for southern account. Liver
pool cables received uere said the Texas
basis was broken, and October in the Liver
pool market broke 117 English points, equal
to over 2 cents a pout d. This, with rumors
that cotton -was ccmirg here from Memphis
for delivery, stimulated selling of October
around the local ring, and the price was
depressed to 25.20 c, or 145 points below ♦he
previous close. Later months sold 105 to
120 poin’s tlcwer, with December touch
ing 22.08 c and January 21.50 c. The selling
became less aggressive at these figures, and
there were rallies of half a cent or so
early in the noon hour on reports of an
other tropical storm threat in the gulf.
The mid-day rallies were followed by re
newed Wekaness with prices making new
low ground during the middle of the after
aoon. October sold off to 23.95, or 170
points net lower, while later months showed
losses of 117 to 135 points with January
selling at 21.35 under continued offerings
from the south and renewed local pressure.

. NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 27.—Wide declines
were made by cotton today under selling
stimulated by Secretary Houston s state
ment regarding the financing of commodi
tiee for owners who desired to keep them
off the market, which was considered
highly unfavorable to the holding movement
inaugurated by cotton growers. Cables were
poor and increased t. e offerings. At the
end of the first hour of trading prices were
79 to 127 points under the close of Satur
day. October traded down to 22.50 c and
Starch to 20.64 c.
Reports of much lower prices for spots
in the interior swelled offerings still fur
ther and the market turned very weak un
der the report that some Boston banks were
requiring 90 days' notice for withdrawal
from savings deposits. The trading months
were sent to levels 111 to 172 points under
the close of last week, October 22.05 and
March 20.32. Late in the morning the de
cline was checked by the storm warning be
cause of a disturbance in th east-central
Gulf of Mexico and because of reports from
Texas that many farmers were discharging
their pickers.
Rumors that banks in the middle west
were refusing to lend money on foodstuffs
put the market to new low levels in the
late trading, active months being forced to
declines of 123 to 172 points. October went
to 22.02 and March to 19.70.

SHEPARD & GLuuK COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 27.—Secretary
Houston’s statement that the government
would not be a party to any attempts to
maintain wartime prices by Molding com
modities off the market, and the continued
weakness of spots in the interior caused
wide breaks today in cotton. Hedge selling
and miners of bank troubles in the east and
highly favorable weather increased the sell
ing movement.
As the situation now stands, it can hardly
be expected that the market will do better
until the spot market meets with a de
mand of more consequence han has yet
bees fall, thia season.

THOMSON & McKINNON GRAIN LETTER
CHICAGO, Sept. 27.—Wheat: The feat
ure in this market today has bepn large op
erations in covering that' looks like short
sales of December and selling of March in
stead by commission house Interests and the
reverse oy elevator interests. There seems
to be a little apprehension on short Decern-'
her wheat o naccount or probability of large
shipments up to the close of navigation. The
fact remains deep seated in our minds, how
ever, that wheat is relatively high and that
the excessive cash premiums over December
are likely to suffer.
Corn—There was some pressure carried
over which showed itself early but it was
too apparent to shrewd traders that the
market had about run itself out for this
turn so with some reports of frost which
really was cause for apprehension and a
brisk demand by shorts for profits made a
good recovery. The cash was fairly well
taken care of at around the September
price. While there is no reason to expect
any extended or maintained advance, after
reaction upwards >s not at all improbable.
Oats—This grain is so comparatively cheap
and the May is selling so low that it makes
it look rather attractive as a purchase for
moderate returns.
Provisions: Fluctuations were not im
portant with only moderate firm undertone.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.: “If the basis con
tinues to decline, it looks like a continued
decline in our market is inevitable, though
this may be brought about with sharp ral
lies from time to time on short covering,
bad weather and renewed trade buying.”
Moyse & Holmes: “Cotton is a sale on
all bulges.”
8. M. Weld & Co. “Spot cotton in Texas
seems to be declining as fast as the future
market, and we continue to expect lower
prices.”
Hirsch, Lillienthal & Co.: “While most
factors are bearish wc would not recom
mend the decline too far, demand may ap
pear suddenly and a Dullish government re
port next week may change the situation.”

COUNTY AGENTS
IN ALABAMA GET
NEW TERRITORY
AUBURN, Ala.—Announcement has
been made by Director L. N. Duncan,
of the extension service, of the trans
fer of W. O. Winston from the dis
trict agency for north Alabama to
the district agency for central Ala
bama. This change was occasioned
by the resignation of W. L. Lett as
district agent for central Alabama, to
engage in farming near Selma.
Mr. Winston, before his appoint
ment as district agent for north
Alabama, had served as county agent
in both Lowndes and Pickens coun
ties—these two counties now being
in the territory in which he is desig
nated to serve as district agent. He
was born and reared on a farm in
Sumter county, and is a graduate in
agriculture of the Alabama Poly
technic institute.
To fill the vacancy as district agent
for north Alabama, I. T. Quinn, of
Montgomery, has been appointed. Mr.
Quinn was reared on a farm in north
Alabama, is a graduate of the agri
cultural school at Hamilton, and of
the courses' in agriculture at the Ala
bama Polytechnic institute. He was
county demonstration agent in Mont
gomery and Perry counties, and has
been serving as seertary of the state
board of agriculture during the term
of Commissioner Allgood. Mr. Quinn
will take charge of his office on
October 1.
DENTISTS DISAGREE ON
WHETHER CHILD’S TOOTH
IS GOLD OR OTHERWISE
(Continued from Page 1)
ine she was wishin - most earnest
ly that gold teeth had never been in
vented and her particular tooth ahd
been zinc, copper, anything but gold.
“Why,” one could conceive Eva
Catherine remarking sarcastically.
“Why not prop the old mouth open
and just leave it hat way?”
So the show was over for tife
time being.
What, then, is the answer to this
seventeenth wonder lof the world?
Discount Pre-Natal Theory
Not probable, say doctors. Yet Eva
Catherine’s mother has three gold
crowns, and one of them was fixed
by a dentist just three months* be
fore Eva Catherine came into the
world. The tooth germ, according
to doctors, begins to grow before
birth of the child.
Then here’s another thought—Eva
Catherine wears a ring on the mid
dle finger of her right hand. The
ring was picked up by Eva Cath
erine's sister on the back porch. It
may be gold or it may be brass. She
sticks that finger in her mouth.
Doubtless she stuck it in her mouth
a lot while she was teething. Could
the ore 'or 4netal have affected her
tooth?
What about the tooth being dis
eased?
That’s the opinion of the dentists
who say it isn’t gold.
“The enamel wore off,” declares
Dr. Brock. “Under the enamel of
every tooth is the natural .filling,
dentine. An acid stomach or some
other trouble will frequently cause
brown spots on the tooth, and some
times bright yellow spots.”
On the other hand, here is what
Dr. J. Q. Brantley has to say:
Dr. rßantley stated that parents
brought the child to his office Tues
day night and that he made an ex
amination, but due to inadequate
lighting facilities he requested the
mother to bring the child back about
noon the* following day, which she
did.
Dr. Brantley stated that parents
examined the tooth through a mag
nifying glass, and- he declares the
deposit to be gold. He describes it
as being about an eighth of an inch
in diameter and containing a solid
covering of the metal and being in
the shape of a miniature gold crown.
Dr S. F. West, who is associated
with Dr. Brantley and who was called
in at the time of the examination,
bears him out in this statement.
Dr. Brantley attributes the condi
ion to a pre-natal Influence as the
most plausible explanation.

GAME WILL BE
ABUNDANT THIS
YEAR IN STATE
Georgia’s hunting season opens,
this year with the most abundant
supply of game since the game laws
Were established, according to Sam
J. Slate,"commissioner of game and
fish.
In the lowlands of the state the
heavy spring rains forced quail to
the hills when they made their nests,
with the result that thousands of
young birds were saved from drown
ing. The supply is consequently
greater than usual.
Wild turkey are on.the Increase in
south Georgia, and so are deer along
the coast and the couhties bordering
the Florida line. Commissioner Slate
announces that a special effort will
be made for the protection of wild
turkey, which many people have a
tendency to shoot out of season and
in excess of the bag limit.
Commissioner Slate has prepared
a summary of the game situation
along various lines, with particulai
attention to the federal migratory
bird law, and with the dates of the
open season for all kinds of game.
His statement is as follows:
Game Is Very Plentiful
“October first is really the begin
ning of the game season in Georgia.
On that date the season opens for
squirrels ar(d for deer. The season
opens more auspiciously this year
than for many years. Reports from
practically all the wardens in the
state coincide upon this one fact.
“The heavy rains of last spring
forced quail from the swamps up
to the highlands and during the
nesting season the nests were better
protected and after they hatched
the young broods were, not drowned
out nearly as mych, as usuaL From
every section of the state comes
the report that young quail is more
abundant than it has been for many
years. This is especially true in the
southern part of the state. Splen
did reports come from along the
line’of the Alabama valley in such
counties as Wayne, Jeff Davis, Ap
pling, Tattnall, Liberty, Telfair and
Montgomery. In the southwestern
section of the state news is equally
as encouraging.
“Better reports about wild tur
key have been received in this office
in the last few days than at any
time since I have been commission
er. There are a great many young
wild turkey in the southern part of
the state. '
“It is a deplorable and unfortun
ate fact that a great many of our
people will attempt to shoot these
birds before the dpqning of the sea
son on November 20. It is to be
hoped that all the sportsmen in
Georgia and all the game wardens
will make an extra effort to see that
the law is obeyed and that shooting
does not begin until November 20
on quail and wild turkey.
The Deer. Season
“The deer season opens on October
1 and for men who enjoy this sport
prospects are brighter than they
have been since the establishment
of, the game laws. A good many of
our coast counties report deer as
fairly numerous and the counties on
the Florida line report the same
conditions. This is especially true
in Thomas and Grady counties.
“There is abundant sport this
yeai’ for all and we believe those
who go into the woods will be amp
ly repaid. The department needs
the assistance and encouragement
of all people who believe in the ob
servance of the Jaw. We are making
a strenuous effort to enforce the
laws as rigidly as we can along
lines of conservation and it is espe
cially desirable that the bag limits
and the seasons be observed.
“We call the attention of the
sportsmen of Georgia again to the
fact that the federal migratory bird
act has been declared constitutional
and changes the Georgia season on
wood duck, migratory duck, wood
cock, plovers and doves. The dove
season in Georgia, according to the
federal act, will open on November
20 and close on January 31, with a
bag limit of twentyyfive in one day.
The killing of summer or wood duck
is absolutely prohibited, and the
season on migratory duck is from
November 1 to January 31. Wood
cock from December 1 to December
31, six in one day, and on plovers
from November 20 to January 31, fif
teen in one day. In making up these
dates w.e count the open season
allowed by .both state and national
laws.
Observe Dates Carefully
“We again call attention to the
fact that as the federal migratory
bird act has been held to be consti
tutional by the supreme court of
the United States, the possession of
a state license wil not prevent a
hunter from being prosecuted under
the federal act. For the benefit of
the sportsmen of the state the open
seasons under the federal and state
laws have both been printed and the
only safe course to pursue is to
hunt during the season which is
opened by both state and federal
laws. In fact this is the only lega
time to hunt.
"We desire to thank the people foi
the support they have given us. Wt
want to say that our aim is Jo serv<
people here in every way we possibly
can and the office is open to receive
complaints and to furnish all the in
formation possible and to assist the
general public in any t way
within our power.
“This has been a strenuous yeai
upon most people and we believe the
relaxation of a few days spent in the
woods in the greatest of all sports
will be of great benefit to a large
number of men in the state.
“For the benefit of the public we
again give you the chart of the open
season and bag limit under the Geor
gia law. eW also print the federal
chart in connection with this. It
might be well to cut it out and place
it in your memorandum book.

CAIRO, Ga., Sept. 2,s.—Signing an
agreement to hold their 1920 crop
of sugar cane for a minimum of one
dollar a gallon for grade A syrup, ap
proximately five hundred extensive
sugar cane raisers of southwestern
Georgia and northern Florida, met
here Friday and organized the

by not only cane growers but by
many others interested in the in
dustry, and it was announced that
the association would proceed at
once to secure as members every
cane grower in Georgia and Florida.
W. B. Roddenberry, of Cairo, one
of the most extensive raisers of su
gar cane, in Georgia, called the
meeting, and was elected temporary
chairman. He outlined the purposes
of the meeting, and told the assem
bled growers just what an associa
tion properly organized could ac
complish.
Following short addresses from
other extensive cane growers, as
well as representatives of refineries
and syrup manufacturers, the pre
liminary plans for the organization
were presented and adopted unani
mously. The following officers were
named: W. B. Roddenberry, presi
dent; W. J. Singletary, vice presi-
Thomas Wright, secretary and
treasurer.

employed as ticket chopper. George
had on his uniform—that of ant“L”
guard—Alexander testified, and
tried to pass through the gate free.
Alexander denied him this privilege,
whereupon, it is ..lleged, George
struck Alexander with a cane.
George denied the whole affair, but
got ten days in the workhouse.
