POU LT W- JIM. IJ.BARSHAMz. 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 Judge Marshall will be "lad to answer in this department I questions on all points of rearin" utility and fancy poultry.

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. RANGE OF NEW YORK FUTURES. , ■ - ——. c x _ . d ■ ■ v £ m f -j> «; 2 5 ?

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. RANGE IN NEW ORLEANS FUTURES.

Prows and gossip I Os the Fleecy Staple Some good buying prevailed about noon i on predictions of bad weather in the west. | The ring crowd, who were such liberal I sellers during the early trading, are be i lieved to have gone short, and later, dur ing the forenoon trading, bought rather freely, which was said to be shorts cov ering. The government weekly report on weather was considered very favorable, and much better than expected. During the early trading the ring crowd hammered all positions.

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. Following are 10 a. m. bids: October 11.37, December 11.23, January 11.60, March 11.77.

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. Stock quotations: I | |l*ast | Clos.iPre* STOCKS— |HighlLow.lSale.l Bid-ICI’M Ama! Copper? 91 ; 89'4| 90’ B l 90Vl 89% Am.

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.
