Medium-Sized Acreage , T racts ALL of us know the profit that is usually made from acreage. It is almost a conceded fact that if a person owns good acre age, he has a sure profit in it sooner or later. When we think of acreage propositions, we think of lots of land, and naturally lots of money, because the usual acreage transaction involves a great deal of money. The demand for good, close-in acreage for sub division purposes is increasing every day. A trip to the outskirts of the city in any direction you choose to take will convince you of this fact. We are going to offer a tract of about 100 acres, between Decatur and East Lake, which we have cut up into five, ten and fifteen-acre tracts. The pric© and terms on these tracts make it possible for almost anybody to handle them. FORREST & GEORGE ADAIR $1,300 CASH WILL BUY four lots in Inman Park. DON’T DELAY IP YOU WANT A REAL BAR GAIN.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20. Firm cables in connection with no rain in Texas overnight led to a firm opening of the cotton market to-day. First prices were at a net advance of 3 to 10 points, generally 8 points higher than the clos ing quotations of Tuesday. Immediate ly after the opening there was consid erable unloading on the upturn on the idea that the weather outlook was fa vorable. The selling was attributed mainly to brokers who have been on the buying side for the past few days tak ing profit. The decline was small, being only 2 to 4 points. Later unfavorable weather and crop reports caused a general buying wave, including considerable short covering, and prices made new high ground for the movement. December led the ad vance by rallying 11 points from the in itial level. Other positions followed the advance with gains ranging from 3 to 10 points. A cable from Liverpool explained the advance there by short covering on re ports of damage from this side, but re ported a poor spot demand. The detailed weather map for Texas yesterday shows two stations had tem peratures of 100 to 102 degrees. Dallas wires that Texas received further rains along Fort Worth and Denver Railway and West and South Texas, also central part of Texas, benefiting crops consider ably. This, coupled with prospects of the weather becoming unsettled In the Western States, encouraged an active selling movement during the fort part of the afternoon session. There are a good many reports from the Eastern belt complaining of considerable dete rioration in the last few days. This checked the downward trend of the market, which was in evidence when profit taking longs sold the market off a few points from the early high point It is a critical period just now and the bears are very cautious. Rains are undoubtedly needed over the entire cot ton area. The bull forces contend that unless It does rain in the next few days, much higher prices will be the result. The feeling is becoming more bullish each day in the absence of sufficient moisture.

Liverpool cables more than met the advance or yesierday and brought out good buying and considerable short covering. The bull forces were early buyers and were aggressive on the ad vance and there wus very little cotton for sale; only profit taking by scattered longs.—J. M. Anderson. “I have Just received a telegram from Clement & Curtis, of Chicago, saying that their reports on cotton indicate a 6 point loss or deterioration since last month. They also say they can not favor bulling corn at these prices; in other words, don’t favor following the advance further.”—S. 'Pate. A prominent spot house in Houston says; “Don’t think deterioration above normal, but more striking, as conditions heretofore have been excellent.’’ * * * The New York Cotton Exchange will be closed Saturday and Monday. Sep tember 1. The New Orleans exchange will close Monday only. « * * Rlordan was apparently the leading seller on the up-turn to-day. but turned the best buyer, causing a general buying move. * • * Vldalla, Ga.. wires; “Forty acres of the finest cotton In this county has been practically ruined by the ravages of a small green worm called a bollworm on account of the fact that his work Is done on the green bolls Just before maturity. ’The. worms have made their appear ance In the field of J. H. Watts near this place, and who carried off first bale honors last year. Mr. Watts brought nearly a peck of the infected bolls to town to-day and explainer the work or the worm, which is about an inch long After the boll has been destroyed the worm moves to another and they are working in such large quantities that the 40-acre field that was attacked has practically been ruined In less than two weeks. A number of the infected bolls have been left with Mayor Meadows, of this place, who will send them to At lanta and get expert advice as to the best means of fighting the new pest. So far no other field has been at tacked. • “The little worm bores a hole in the boll and feeds on the cotton pulp on the Inside, a decay Immediately sets up and the worm moves along ” • * • S. Tate, of N. L. Carpenter & Co . says: ’Telegrams coming In to us are of a very disturbing nature, reporting crop In eastern part of belt. Carollnas, Georgia. Alabama, part of Tennessee and part of Mississippi, showing marked deterioration. Crop generally spotted, meaning a large part of It is now or late cotton, which is very susceptible to normal weather conditions, dry and hot, through last half of August and first half September. "Estimates from different States be ing generally reduced. Reports front western part of belt, particularly Tex as Arkansas and Oklahoma describe continued deterioration; estimates on Texas now running as low as 4.000.006 bales; Oklahoma very bad, prospects greatly reduced both In this State and in Arkansas. A continuation of this dry hot wpather means a very low, bullish Government condition report on September 1. anl a prospective big ad vance in price of cotton futures, which, even with a crop of 14.000,000 hales, these prices are very cheap." * * • Theodore II. Price says: “Those who are speculatively short of new crop con iracts In this market have, in our opin ion. given “hostages to fortune.” The recovery of these contracts at even 20 points profit presupposes a decline of nearly 150 points in the Southern mar kets. The risk would seem to be out of all propositions to the possible profit." Dallas wires; “Texas and Oklahoma generally clear; rains yesterday In San Antonio." * * * NEW ORLEANS. Aug 20.—Hayward & (Mark: M’he weather map shows cloudv over northern half of the belt generally fair In the south; few' scat tered showers, mostly light over south Texas. No rain of consequence else where. Considerable change In pressure distribution and conditions again shap ing for unsettled weather, except fair southeastern quarter of the belt. Scat- tcred showers probable ta-day in south Texas. PRICE OF STOCKS! OTHERS ADVANCE News From Cotton Belt Affects ; Although the Weather Is Good, Public Opinion — Big Issues Steadily Accumulated.

Aug. 20. While there were only a few scattered show ers in the. southern half of Texas, there was a material change overnight in the pressure, distribution and prospects are again in favor of the weather becoming unsettled in the western States M’he map shows cloudy weather over the en tire northern half of the belt, generally fair in the southern half and generally fair weather indicated for the southeast ern quarter. Liverpool came in strong with futures about 9 points higher and reports shorts covering on reports of damage from this side, but spot demand poor. The mar ket advanced further, allowing a gain of 13 points at the olosf*. Tetters from reliable parties in Texas say that there has been considerable rainfull lately In the southern half of the State, but, as it was In the nature of heavy showers not always occurring at Government stations, it did not ap pear in the official records. Deteriora tion is said to be from very high pros pects. hence appears greater than normal First trades here were at an advance of about 8 points and the market ad vanced steadily to 11:44 for October. Reports of damage from the west seem to have taken hold of opinion, and with prospects for a bullish Bureau report, bull operators have the advantage. The bears are holding off; the supply of sell ing contracts is smaller, while demand lias broadened and the combination car ries prices up. It Is the usual outcome of a crop scare, which has been brewing for some tim£, on a somewhat oversold market. A growing Reeling <»f confidence that the trade is not likely to be further hampered by hostile legislation also pro vides buyers and contributes to the ad vance. Am. Ice . . . 22% 22 22% 22% Jan Am.

The news was bullish from abroad, espe cially that from France, Argentina and Russia. Northwestern receipts were considerably in excess of a year ago, while Winnipeg receipts were small. There was a reaction and advance of V* to %c in corn and the feeling was quite strong. Many of those who were sellers yesterday were on the buying side to-day.

Aug. 20.—Texas-okla- homa situation has taken control of the market Enough shorts have been alarmed to boost values to 60 points, or half a cent up from the extreme decline. The market's future will depend upon spinners. Some houses think they see evidence of such buying. If spinners really become alarmed and buy freely a material advance will take place. The market will continue, however, to be extremely sensitive to reports of rain COTTON MARKET OPINIONS. Logan A Bryan: Further advances seem probable. Morris H. Rothschild & Co.: More crop deterioration reports are coming to hand, whicn hold bearish opinions in check. A. Norden & Co.: Higher prices are likely to fa* see u Miller A- ('<».: Advise the talc of De cember cotton. The New Orleans Times-Democrat savs:“Continued acute need for moisture over a large cotton belt area, some im provement in the American dry goods trade and the spreading belief that con gress will enact scientific legislation for the regulation of contract trading caused a small buying wave, and a cotton mar ket advance was scored However, the market Is yet held In restraint, and the price pendulum carries values up and down within narrow’ limits only. “With all trade eyes on Texas and Oklahoma the rings were particularly interested in the reports for those States Included In the Government's weekly cotton region bulletin, which was published yesterday. “During the past few days private re ports of rains in these two States not only have been rather numerous, but they have Indicated beneficial precipi tation over a Somewhat greater area than has been indicated by the informa tion supplied by the Government. Aft er \aking full allowance for exaggera tion bv private correspondents there is still a’disparity, which can only be ex plained on Hie group J t Hat in the very large State of Texas the Government maintains an insufficient number of telegraph reporting stations to ade- liiatelv cover the territory. The Gov ernment's weekly bulletin, however, should make allowance for this fact." Texas rainfall; Austin, .14: Corpus Christ!, .04: Kerrvllle, .18; lulling. .04; San Antonio. .01; San Marcus. 50.
