COTTON I
NEW YORK. Dec. s.—The cotton
market .was nervous anti unsettled
at the opening today, owing to er
ratic fluctuations in Liverpool, with
first prices 25 points lower to 13
points higher. There were rallies
in the English market just before
the opening here, however, and
prices- soon stiffened up on covering
or rebuying and a moderate de
mand from the trade. December ad
vanced from 35.85 to 32.28 and
March from 35.68 to 36.05 during the
early trading, making net advances
of about IS to 30 points on the active
positions. Private cables reported a
renewal of bull liquidation in the
Liverpool market, with a small
trade demand. Unconfirmed rumors
were circulating that private re
turns indicated a ginning of nearly
700,000 bales for the last period.
Liverpool broke again shortly after
the local opening and there was a
renewal of liquidation in the market
here, which included a good deal of
selling by houses with Liverpool and
continental connections. January
sold off from 35.72 to 35.07. and May
from 36.20 to 35.55, but there was
trade buying at these prices as well
as covering and prices at midday
showed rallies of 15 or 20 points
from the lowest on most positions.
Mid-day rallies were followed by
renewed weakness during the early
afternoon, and prices made new lows
for the day, with January selling
off to '34.97 and March to 35.20, or
about 55 to 60 points net lower on
the general list. Prices were with
in a few points of the lowest around
2 o'clock owing to continued liquida

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. s.—An
active and excited market ruled in
the early trading in cotton today,
but prices ha.d no definite trend. On
the fist call, there were declines of
7 to 22 points, in response to a very
poor Liverpool; but new buying at
once took possession of the. market,
and soon had prices 20 to 25 points
higher than the last sales of yes
terday. Just when considerable 1
show of strength was being made,
private ginning figures of 9,065,000 i
bales appeared and were considered
bearish, because they pointed to
ginning this last period of 696,000
bales, against only 450,000 the same
period last year. At the end of
the first half hour, prices were 22
to 40 points under yesterday’s finals.
January traded as high as 35.75
cents a pound and as low as 35.10
cents.
The heaviest selling pressure of the
session develop© dinth e afternoon
and the market fell away under it.
catching a large volume of stop
loss orders. Toward 1:30 o’clock
prices were 72 to 77 points under the
close of yesterday, and January was
at 34.73.

CHICAGO, Dec. s.—Wheat bulls foumi
the going a little heavy today. There was
less! trade and tlie bulk of it was local in
character. On the early dip eastern houses
gave evidence of supporting the market and
this induced locals to take hold and there
after the early buyers were waiting for an
opportunity t 0 dispose of their wheat ami
they found the buying power too limited to
accomplish their purpose. Liverpool contin
ues to ignore this market and that terminal
closed lower in face of the advance here
yesterday. Primary receipts fell off. tin
total being not more than half of last
year's. Cash wheat was in good demand in
the spot market at steady volume. Export
trade wnt slow.
Wheat closed % n> cents lower; De
cember, $1.05%; May, $4.41 % @1.11; .Itilv

Corn was strong early with locals tile best
buyers and an occasional apart of buying
commission houses. The offerings were
heavy on the bulges and prices reacted in
the later trading when longs tried to see
profits. The weather was unsettled in
parts. Offerings of corn to arrive from the
northwest continue of air volume. Receipts
are moderate and not up to requirements.
Shipping demand was slow.

RURAL GEORGIA
ATHENS, Ga., Dec. 4.—Higher ed- i
ucation, through lectures by uni ver- j
sity and college professors during the j
spring of 1924, will be brought with- :
in the reach of every city and town
in the state of Georgia having a high
school, as a result of a plan worked
out by Dr. Joseph S. Stewart, pro
fessor of secondary education at the
University of Georgia, in collabora
tion with other university officials, I
made public here.
With Dr. Stewart and the I'niyer
sity of Georgia acting as a kind of
central clearing house, the plan is
that every college professor in the
state of Georgia, no matter at what
institution he is located, will be giv
en the opportunity to go about the
state and make lectures.
Dr. Stewart early in November di
rected letters to every college and
university in Georgia asking that
names of the professors willing to
make the lectures be provided for
him. together with the subjects of
three addresses that each would be |
willing to give during the spring of i
1924. The names of all these Geor
gia professors and the subjects of
their proposed lectures are to be
printed in the Georgia Items coming
out during the early part of Decem
ber.
A copy of The Items will be mailed
to th e superintendent of every high
school in Georgia with a letter telling
him that he may select any five
speakers from the long list and ar
range for a week’s series f these lec
tures in his high gcnool auditorium,
one lecture each night. The only
expense attached will be the defray
ing of the expenses of the men from
the various universities to the cities
and towns where the lectures are to
be held.
Chancellor Barrow and other high
officials said the plan was one of the
most far-reaching for the advance
ment of higher education brought
about in Georgia in many years.
Among the colleges which have
already signified their intention of
co-operating with Dr. Stewart and
the university in th e lecture course j
plan are Mercer university and Wes- i
leyan college, Macon; Georgia Tech i
and Oglethorpe, Atlanta; Emory uni-

Clubbing Combinations
We make nothing out of these other papers. It means
nothing to us whether you take them or not —if anything,
we are rather prejudiced against them, because we are put
to a lot of trouble to handle them, complaints are sent to us
whenever any one of them fails to reach the subscriber
promptly, and we have the expense of handling these com
plaints and sometimes lose the friendship of our subscribers,
who hold us to blame instead of the publishers of the other
papers.
We offer them solely as an accommodation to our friends
and thus enable them to save from one-fourth to one-half
the cost of publications they' desire to take. We have re
moved from our list many publications which have given
poor delivery in the past. Judging from our past experience,
good service may be expected from those listed here:
