COTTON I
NEW YORK, Oct. S.—The cotton
Market opened barely steady at a
lecline of three to ten points under
I renewal of scattering liquidation
jfftd southern and local selling. The
after was promoted by relatively
kisy cables, favorable weather and
(ontinued unfavorable reports from
the goods trade, and prices soon -
Ihowed net losses of twenty to twen
ty-six points, with December selling
iff to 27.45. and January to 26.94.
There was some trade buying and
. Covering on the decline, particularly
iround and on a scale down from
the 27.50 level for December con
tracts.
There appeared to be enough buy
ng below 27% cents for December to
•heck the early decline and prices
rallied on reports of a storm off the
Louisiana coast, which traders evi
dently feared might work inland.
There were also reported that New
England mills were buying low
trades in the southwest and the
forecast for light frosts in parts of
North Carolina, probably had some
fffect during the late forenoon. De
cember rallied t® 27.84 and active
non ths generally were about 4 to 14
>oints net higher arouikl midday.
After selling up to 27.89 on the
nid-day rally, prices eased off again
inder a renewal of scattering
iquidation with traders showing no
(special alarm over the gulf storm
dtuation. December was selling
tround 27.45 shortly after 2 o’clock
phen the market was unsettled and
ibout 24 to 25 points net lower on

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. B.—Fur
:her complaints of trade from north
irn mill centers and fairly favorable
veather over the greater part of
he beit put the cotton market low
ir today, the trading positions los
ng twenty-five to thirty-three points
II the first half hour of business.
December fell off to 26.93 cents a
jound. Some selling was said by
lome brokers to have resuTid from
tn unfavorable opinion of the Ger
nan political situation.
At the lowest of the morning
irices were 26 to 33 points down
vith December at 26.92. The small
iraft warning for the Louisiana
oast caused heavy buying, some
raders fearing that it might mean
t disturbance in the gulf which
pould be felt over a considerable
lortion of the cotton region. The
ight frost predictions for central
tnd western North Carolina in
n'eased the buying and stood 8 to
H points higher than the close of
fist week. At noon less strength
vas being shown and December was
If to 27.26.
For a while no great price move
jient was shown but at the begining
ts the last- hour of the session offer-
Dgs suddenly increased in a large
fay. One explanation was that this
Vas hedge celling and spot interests
rare supposed to lead in it. The ef
fect was to catch the market long
md much of the cotton bought on
form news was thrown overboard,
t sharp break carried December off
o 26.74 and the list to losses under
ast week’s close of 46 to 53 points,
n the trading to 1:30 o’clock.

(Copyright, 1923.)
I CHICAGO. Oct. B.—There was a big trade
; in wheat early today but about mid-Scssion
I ibe volume of business became rather light.
I In file early trade (lie market exhibited
I much strength and May and July deliv
j eries reached new highs for the season.
; There was a big volume of commission
house buying witli much of it short ac
count although some western houses also
were conspicuous as buyers. Local shorts
added to the buying power. On the bulge
there was an increase in selling pressure
and prices lost most of their upturn. The
buying was based almost entirely on the
belief that the government is going to do
something to enhance the value of wheat.
North American exports were heavy, largely
from Canada. Supplies on ocean passage
increased over -1,000,000 bushels. Export
bids were reported 5 cents out of line
and there were resales of 600,060 bushels
of hard winters and Manitoba* by for
eigners reported by the seaboard. Cash
wheat was easier. Minneapolis mills report
ed increased sales of Hour for export.
Visible supply increased 404,000 bushels.
Corn was easy in tone. Locals supported
the market because of the strength io
wheat but commission houses seemed to
have plenty of corn on tap. Reports from
tlie corn belt indicate that farmers will
endeavor to market new corn early to
benefit by the high prices prevailing. Cash
corn was stronger and No. 2 yellow sold
at $1.05 after starting at $1.04. Shipping
demand was light. Visible supply decreased
490.000 bushels.
Oats were affected by the action of other
markets. Trade was not particularly ac
tive. Visible supply increased 1,000 buslie.s.
Provisions were generally easier on sell
ing because of the break in hogs. Foreign
houses bought lard on the break. Shorts
bid up October ribs.

MELOiy GROWERS
CHANGE MME OF
THEIR ASSOCIATION
ADEL, Ga., Oct, 6.—The mem
bership and directors of the South
west Georgia Watermelon Growers’
association held their regular fall
meeting here today, and it was
widely attended.
The. old constitution and by-laws,
together with the former members’
marketing contract, were abolished
and new ones adopted. A new sys
tem of raising revenue to defray the
cost of operations and maintenance
of the organization and a five-year
members’ contract was accepted
unanimously and they will go into
effect immediately. The members
now believe that the association has
the necessary authority and facili
ties for remarkable growth, as ter
ritorial restrictions were removed
and growers in all sections of Geor
gia and Florida now can be accept
ed. It was further voted that an
effort be made to secure every
melon-grower in the producing sec
tion of these states.
Among the events was that of
changing the name of the organi
zation. The Sowcga Melon Growers’
association was adopted as the new
name for the organization, the
change being brought about in or
der that the name might not sig
nify a particular section, as all of
the members of the association are
not located in southwest Georgia.
The Sowega Hay Growers’ as
sociation came into existence at
this meeting when the members of
the watermelon association author
ized the formation of this co-op
erative, naming the executive com
mittee' of the melon association as
the organization committee. An or
ganization agreement and a five
year members’ marketing contract
was adopted by the hay-growers, and
the organization committee will han
dle the sign-up campaign along with
that of the melon association, in
view of having a large -acreage by
the time the next crop is planted.
Receipts of Cattle
Larger Than a Week
Ago in Chicago Yards
BY L. C. GRUNDELAND.
(Leased Wire Service to The Journal.)
(Copyright, 1923.)
UNION STOCKYARDS, Chicago (Mon
day), Oct. B.—Receipts of cattle showed
up larger than a week ago, while sellers
also had more hogs on hand than they did
last Monday. Os the estimated cattle run,
about 8,000 were westerns, with less than
100 native animals forwarded to packers
from other trading points. Big killers bad
only 1,300 hogs direct, with less than 4.000
held over from last week. The market was
lower, however, on account of large fresh
supply. About 4,000 sheep and lambs were
forwarded to packers and the total supply
was light here. Car report for the local
yards- was 2,275 and less* than 100 were
“back” at the opening of the trade.
Receipts were 30,000 cattle, 60,000 hogs.
J 5,000 sheep and 4,000 calves.
Cattle trade was strong to a little higher,
with quality comparatively good. A fair
amount so stock sold at $1,200, while choieu
heavy animals went at $12.50 and yearlings
at $ll.OO and up for choice lots. Some sales
were 10c to 15c higher, but the general
market was strong. Cows and heifers held
fully steady, while canners were in good
demand at unchanged price levels. Veal
calves were weak in spots, but quality was
not good. Packers priced $11.00011.50.
Hog trade was off mostly 15c. with some
spots more. Choice heavy butchers stood at
the top, with $8.25, while packing grades
went at $6.5007.25. Demand for plain
’stock was slow, and many were unsold at
the close.
Fat lambs sold 25c to 50c. higher than
last Friday, but quality was lacking, and
the gain did not show on quotations. Choice
westerns went to shippers at $13.75, while
best natives were quoted at $13.25013.50.
Feeders were about steady, while a small
supply of aged muttons also went at un
changed price levels.

BED, BUREAU 51V5
ATHENS, Ga., Octjf 5. —Farmers
desiring a high yield in grain are
advised to seed early in a well pre
pared seed bed. This advice is
given by the State College of Agri
culture, following tests by that in
stitution in conjunction with the
United States department of agri
culture. ■
Two tests were made, one here,
covering a period of eight
another at the Coastal Plain Experi
ment station at Tifton, covering
four years.
Seeding oats on October fifteenth
at Athens gave a yield of 47.3 bush
els with Appier oats as compared
with 19.5 bushels for November sis
teenth seeding. Fulghum oats
gave practically the same results.
Extreme early seeding of wheat
is not desirable -it was shown, due
to liability of injury from Hessian
fly. but seeding from October sis
teenth to twentieth in the northern
part of the state has given yields
nearly twice as high as seeding on
November the fifteenth.
The dates of seeding at the Tifton
Experiment station have not been
the same eve l '-- year, but from tne
data it was evident that seeding by
November f" : ~* is Mi safer than
later seeding. Date seedings some
times give fair yields, but cannot be
counted on every year, and the
earlier . -dings give much better
yields on the average. The Janu
ary first and February first seed
ings in 1323 were a total failure.
Appier and Fulghv- are two of
the highest yielding varieties, but
pure seed of either will give much
higher yields than mixed seed. The
Appier is usually more reliable, bu*
the Fulghum is a desirable oat on
account of its earliness.
In the southern part of the state
the Appier appeal's to have a de
cided advantage most years.

SNIALLEH ELEVENS
OF SOUTH WOffly
THEIR BIGGER FOES
Saturday’s football results proved
less surprising than on the week
before, but again gave evidence that
southern college teams are becom
ing closer matched. It seems no
longer to be a case of a Big Three
or Big Four. The smaller colleges
are becoming more powerful.
Georgia Tech, dominant for so
many years, had her hands full with
the Cadets from the Virginia Mili
tary institute and the most ardent
supporters of the Atlantians admit
ted their team was lucky to win.
The score was 10 to 7. Tech’s
touchdown was made by Wycoff
who intercepted a forward pass and
ran 85 yards. The other scoring
was due to a dropkick by H. Reeves,
after Hunt had intercepted a Cadet
pass and run 60 yards. V. M. I.’s
score was due to Faulkner’s fipe
run with a fumbled ball. V. M. I.
outgained Tech and it is likely
would have won but for errors of
judgment and a little hard luck. A
feature of the game was the punt
ing duel between White of V. M. 1.,
and Wycoff. The former had the
better of it, and his kicks were su
perbly covered by as fine a pair
of ends in Carlton and Watkins as
has been seen on Grant field in
many a day. Barbour, the big tackle,
also played splendidly for the Ca
dets, while Wycoff, Staton, Frye
and Bob Reeves starred for Tech.
Oglethorpe, which gave Tech such
a scare a week before, fought game
ly at Athens but was handily beaten
by the University of Georgia. Score,
20 to 6. Fletcher, the great half
back from Tifton, was Georgia’s
star, with Captain Bennett, Joe Tay
lor and Randall playing finely.
David, whose fine bucking scored
theis.only points, was Oglethorpe’s
bri*Ztest light.
With Virginia’s scalp hanging at
their belt, Furman’s fine eleven
came to Macon only to be beaten, 6
to 3, by Mercer, whom Georgia had
great difficulty in defeating the pre
vious Saturday. The game was very
close and in doubt to the very last.
Both teams fought with great cour
age.
Os the other South Carolina
teams, Clemson defeated Newberry
handily, score 32 to 0. Citadel won
from Erskine, 26 to 0, and Presby
terian college won from the state
university, 7 to 3-
University of North Carolina was
overwhelmed by Yale, 53 to 0; State
college surprised the fans by hold
ing Penn State to a 16 to 0 score;
Trinity smashed Randolph-Macon.
54 to 0; Wake Forrest walloped
Guilford, 41 to 0; Davidson lost to
V. P. 1., 7 to 0, and Elon won from
Lynchburg, 3 to 0.
Florida put up a strong game
against the W’est Point Cadets and
there was no scoring in the first
half; the big army team, however,
wore the southerners down in the
second half and won 20 to 0. Army
is regarded as the strongest team in
the east and Florida’s showing was
very fine.
Auburn had trouble with Birming
ham-Southern but* won 20 to 0; Ala
bama beat Mississippi, 56 to 0. and
Spring Hill won from the Camp
Benning soldiers. 13 to’O.
Vanderbilt defeated Howard. 27
