Proper Raising Essential
Fine stock alone will not always insure success in the show
room There are many accessories that go far toward making
5 successful exhibit. In the first place, a bird must be raised
properly or there will be no possible chance for
j t to win. Hatched from an egg produced by
strong, vigorous, carefully bred stock—such a
chick being never allowed to want for any
thing in the way of feed, either dry or green
stuff, xvith good range to give exercise, should
mature into a fine, healthy specimen. So much,
so good. The other side of the question is:
Stock of the very best exhibition quality mated
by an experienced breeder. One who knows or
js reasonably sure that when he puts certain
ends of specimens together he will get just
about the best results that can be produced in
the breed. Such stock should be hatched at a
time to just come to maturity (or bloom, as we
sometimes call it) at the time we will want to
exhibit it. In such a specimen everything will
| )0 in its prime or finished state. In the very
strongest of competition it is no use to show a
bird that is not fully finished, nor yet one that
has begun to fade, by being past the best pe-
riod. One who has not made such things a study perhaps has
not thought of this important point. Having produced the
healthy prime show specimen the only thing left for you to do
is to get him into the show room
looking bis best. Should it be a I
white bird it is necessary to give
him a thorough washing and
rinsing long enough before the
show to allow it to become
thoroughly dry and well plumed
so that it will not show the ef
fects of the washing process ex
cept in its pure white plumage.
In a previous number I gave the meth
od of washing. After washing the
ipeeimens should be kept in nice, clean
quarters, that their feathers may not
become soiled. Keep males and females
separate. Try to keep every feather in
place, If possible, as a broken wing
feather in some breeds means a loss of

i the prize to you. Try to get your fowls
to the show promptly. If possible, at

after the wants of your own birds.!
There are certain little fixings and ex- !
teas that you can do for your show 1
bird.
When I was in the show business I'
went into it for all there was in sight,
and they used to call me an "old gran
ny" for the way I looked after my
stock; but when the smoke had cleared
away they usually found my stock in
the front as winners. Nothing has such
a handsome reward as care in the show
room. The extras. When I found I
was up against a tough proposition and
my competitor had something better
than I had, I bought him out on the
spot, unless 1 knew where I could do
better elsewhere.

W SELLING
I LOWERS COTTON
Holdings Are Thrown on Mar
ket Throughout Day in Face
of Bad Weather.
NEV YORK, Sept. 24 Heavy realiz
i Ing predominated upon the cotton mar- !
ket today in the face of unfavorable i
weather conditions, which resulted in 1
prices opening 3 to 7 points below last !
night s close. Liverpool cables showed a ;
decided weakness in the initial trading, !
, and it was reported that the market
there leels the influence of increased
hedge selling. The weakness in the ca
ble news was believed to have encour- I
aged the realizing movement to a great ■
■ extent. The selling was led by large
s P”t houses and the ring speculators.
After the call the market developed ir-
i regularity from the early range.
During tne inital trading the manfpula-
I tfon of all positions were allowed to run
its course and scattered long and the ring
crowd hammered heavily on being tired of
waiting and the bears took the advantage i
lof the situation and liquidated heavily
and as there was no special bull support
: prices receded to a lower level aggregat-
■ ing 10 to 16 points below the previous
close. The bulls appear at present to be
awaiting for further news from the belt
and show hesitancy in makin- their ap
pearance in the market. Weather pre
dictions were for a bad spell coming over
the western belt. This, however, had no
effect and the prevailing belief is that the
ring crowd is short.
Some scattered buying prevailed during
the afternoon session which seemed to ;
come from the ring crowd, but this did
not stimulate the market to any extent '
and prices only regained about 3 to 6
points of the early decline.
A sudden buying wave prevailed dur
ing the last half hour of trading on pre
! dictions of cold weather over night and
I prices regained a large majority of the
■ decline. At the close the market was
I very steady with ilces ranging from un
changed to 6 points below the final fig-
| ures of Monday.

DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 24. —The map |
shows generally fair weather west of the
Atlantlcs, practically no rain, but cloudy
with general rains, heavy at many points
in the Atlantlcs. That these continued
rains are delaying maturity and harvest
ing In the eastern states is shown by the
very small receipts there compared with
last year. Weather prospects are dis
tinctly unfavorable
Our market opened about 4 points
lower, and remained flat and easy in spite
of the very unfavorable weather pros
pects. Chances for unfavorable reports
bv The Journal of Commerce and a bull
ish October bureau Intimidate selling as
do also prospects for further delay to crop
and advance in the good grade basis on
account of bad weather
The market appears to be waiting for
some decisive action by leading operators
or a change in the spot situation. Just at
the moment spot demand Is not at all
eager. It may be that spinners are inten
tionally holding out of the market, or
that they have sufficient supplies to defer
buying on a large scale. Should the
weather in the near future become really
bad so as to change crop views, it may
break the reserve now existing among
spot consumers.

NHW ORLEANS, Sept. 24.—Hayward ,V
Clark: The weather map shows general
ly fair west of the Atlantlcs. Practically
no rain, but cloudy; general rains; many
heavy rains in Atlantic states. Indica
tions are for another bad spell of weath
, er coming on the belt, increasing cloud-
I iness; rainy w eather, followed by colder
| Friday in northwestern part of belt.
There are more bears than bulls in the
■cotton market, the reason being the
availability of some obviously bearish
facts in connection with the movement of
the new crop. Bulls, on the other handt*
must rely to a very large extent on the
more subtle phases of the situation, and
in working up their case, say that the
reason business in the actual is no more
brisk and the reason port stocks are ac
cumulating is that the trade can not rig
ure out the crop, the guesses ranging all
i the way from 12,756,000 to 15,000,000
bales.
The big-crop, low-price people make
' much of the tact that, while port re
ceipts thus far have fallen behind last
year by 122,983 bales, port stocks have so
increased as to now stand 78,190 bales in
excess of last year. Meanwhile, exports
■ continue dropping behind those of last
year. The weather Saturday and Sun
day was distinctly unfavorable, heavy
rains falling throughout the Atlantic and
central states, and more rain being prom
ised for the eastern belt. A small storm
in the Gulf attracted very little attention,
as there was nothing to give it the ap
pearance of a feared West Indian blow.
Heavy rains at this time, when most of
the crop is open, will undoubtedly damage
the grade, but the trade is by no means
prepared to admit that the yield Is in any
danger of being curtailed thereby. In the
west, the grade of the Texas and Okla
homa crops seems to be turning out all
right.

Steel and Copper Shares Most
Active—Heavy Gains in the
Last Hour.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK. Sept. 24. Narrowness
dominated the stock market at the open
ing today and initial movements were
generally toward lower levels. The best
gain was made by Southern Pacific which
advanced *>2 on its second transaction but
later it receded.
Among the recessions were United
1 States Steel common ’ B , Amalgamated
Copper ’-h. Reading Union Pacific •%.
Pennsylvania and American Smelting
gained %. Baltimore and Ohio and Ee
high Valley were unchanged on their first
sales. The list was somewhat depressed
by the failure of the firm of S. R. I >ow
& Co., and it failed to rally from the ad
vance in London caused by speculators
buying for the new account which begins
tomorrow.
The curb was easy. Americans in Lon-
1 don were firm. Canadian Pacific there
was sympathetically higher.
The tone in the late forenoon was irreg
ular, Important interests were liberal
sellers of the important railroads, while
1 -Q'>nmission houses dealt on both sides of
rne market. Substantial gains were made
in Bethlehem Steel, Great Northern Ore,
Colorado Fuel and Republic Iron and
Steel common, while Reading, I'nion Pa
cific and Lehigh Valley showed slight
losses.
Late trading was without an\ special
feature and price changes were small,
with most of the leading stocks sh iding
off fractionally from the midday range
Most of the traders were professionals.
Anaconda after its fractional upturn on
the increased dividend announcement,
lost nearly all its gain, but there was a
show of strength in some of the other
copper stocks.
The market closed strong.
Government bonds unchanged. Other
bonds steady.

CHICAGO, Sept. 24.—Wheat opened
quiet this morning and was fractionally
lower, but firmed up on some covering.
! Unfavorable weather was reported in sec
: tions of the spring wheat country and the
: receipts in the Northwest were restricted
somewhat thereby, yet they exceeded
those of a year ago. Cables were frac
tionally lower.
Corn was firmer in sympathy with
wheat and following the weakness shown
early. Trade was small.
Oats stronger and a shade higher on
| small offerings.
Provisions slower and little change.
The range In wheat today was small
and important features were lacking.
Final prices were % to %c higher. Buy
ing bx strong houses was the late
strengthening factor and changed a weak,
dull market to a strong, active one.
Corn closed with prices ranging from
% to %c lower. Despite the fact that ths
tone was firm most of the day. good sell,
ing late in the day forced prices down.
Oats dosed % to %c better. The early
! strength In corn helped oats, but the mar
ket was almost featureless.
Provisions closed generally higher. The
market was supported by the packers.
Trade was fair and the tone was firm,
partially due to small hog receipts here
and in the West.

“Syrup of Figs.”
Children dearly love to take delicious
“Syrup of Figs" and nothing else cleans
and regulates their tender little stom
achs. liver and 30 feet of bowels so
promptly and thoroughly.
Children get bilious and constipated
just like grown-ups. Then they get
sick, the tongue Is coated, stomach sour,
breath bad; they don't eat or rest well;
they become feverish, cross, irritable
and don’t want to play. Listen, Moth
ers—for your child's sake don’t force
the little one to swallow nauseating
castor oil, violent calomel or harsh irri
tants like Cathartic pills. A teaspoon
ful of Syrup of Figs will have your
child smiling and happy again in Just a
few hours. Syrup of Figs will gently
clean, sweeten and regulate the stom
ach, make the liver active and move on
and mit of the bowels all the consti
pated matter, the sour bile, the foul,
dogged-up waste and poisons, without
causing cramps or griping.
With Syrup of Figs you are not drug
ging or injuring your children. Being
composed entirely of luscious figs, sen
na and aromatics, it can not be harm
ful. Full directions for children of all
ages and for grown-ups plainly printed
on the package.
Ask your druggist for the full name.
