YOUK OWN IDEAS IN A HOME.
EVERY person has his own ideas in regard to his own home. To
fcet these ideas worked out properly, there is only one solution:
that is to build it himself. Most people haven’t the time and mon
ey to do this, so have to take the ideas of someone else, which, nine
times out of ten, are all wrong, since very few of us have the same
ideas In regard to details which, as we all know, play a very impor
tant part in each home.
WE are just about to compete a modem, stone-front, 7-room bunga
low in one of Atlanta's prettiest residence parks—West End Park.
The foundation and body are almost completed. The plastering,
painting and inside details are just about to be put in.
WE offer you an pnusual opportunity to come in, talk over your sit
uation with us, give us your Ideas and let us work them out In this
unusually attractive location.
THIS home is on a lot 60 by 150 feet, facing two streets, which
gives you a permanent outlook.
THIS place has furnace heat, sleeping porch, hardwood floors and
every conceivable improvement.
THE price and terms are such that it places this individual home
within the r^ach of all.

Man Accused of White Slavery
Declares He Can Not Deny
Girls’ Charges.
SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 23.—E.
Drew Caminetti, son of a wealthy and
prominent family, whose father is
politically powerful, to-day admitted
that he was near a nervous break
down over the approach of his trial,
which begins Tuesday before Federal
Judge Van Fleet. Following the con
viction of Maury I. Diggs, former
State architect, on a charge of being a
white slaver, Caminetti must face the
same charge and hear the same evi
dence against him that convicted
Digffs.
In an interview to-day he said:
"I do not attempt to condone a breach
of Federal law, but I am not a white
slaver, and I will not plead guilty to
the charge against me.”
Caminetti will not deny the truth
of any statement that Lola Norris
makes on the witness stand.
“When Man’s Sin Comes Home.”
"God knows,” he said, "that it is
going to be hard for me and for
Diggs, but infinitely worse for the
two women in the case. I know from
my experience before the trial.
“That is where a man’s sin comes
home to him. It is hard enough* for
all of us, but doubly hard for Lola
Norris. As for Marsha Warrington,
I feel, perhaps, less sympathy, for
she used reprisal. Anything that
Lola may say on the witness stand
will have no denial from me."
Not Reconciled With Wife.
Speaking of the rumor that he was
to plead guilty, Caminetti said:
“I am not guilty of any intent or
action under the white slave law.
I do not condone my offense, but
surely it is only natural to say that
this is an offense that is being com
mitted by thousands every day and
for which there Is no impeachment
or even blame.
“I am not afraid to face trial. I
have sinned, but I have not sinned
as this Mann act would make it ap
pear. I can only hope that prejudice
will be stricken from the courtroom
when I am put on trial.”
There has been no reconciliation
between Caminetti and his wife.

SENDS COTTON UP
Bad Crop Advices From All Over
the Belt—Spot Firms and
Shorts Big Buyers.
NEW YORK, Aug. 23.—Influenced by
a dry weather map and prospects for
} no rain over the Southwest Sunday,
coupled with a very bullish reoort by
Cordlll on Texan, and Turner’s report
showed considerable deterioration, ’he
cotton market opened strong to-day with
first prices at a net advance of 8 to 18
points from the closing quotations of
Friday. This was much higher for new
crops than had been expected. Some of
the trade who had reduced their lines
yesterday were *got>d buyers at the
start. In addition to this, Liverpool re
ported firm cables, but quoted spot cot
ton unchanged, with only 4,000 bales.
Spot interests, commission houses and
shorts put prices still higher when they
heard that all chances of rain where
needed were gone, as far as could be
judged from the weather map. It rained
where no cotton was grown or where
the crop needs no moisture just now.
Prices continued to climb higher until
they stood about 23 points higher than
the previous close by the end of the
first hour.
It was the gossip that crop estimates
are being lowered. Some spot houses
believe the loss Will be about 2,000.(M)0
bales in Texas and Oklahoma. Many
believe that if the eastern crop turns
out as it did in 1911, the total crop
will be about 14,000.000 bales. These
early estimates are not worth much.
At the close, the market was very-
steady, with prices at a net advance of
38 to 23 points from the final quotations
of Friday.
Estimated cotton receipts:

HAYWOOD AND CLAK’S
DAILY
COTTON LETTER.
NEW ORLEANS. Aug 23.—Our mar
ket opened about ten higher and after
some easiness caused by retailing, ad
vanced further in the last hour to 11.67
for October. New York reports active
support by the interests, which led the
advance early In the week. The Cordlll
report and official forecast of fair
weather west with the expectation of
bullish private condition reports next
week were the principal reasons for the
buying.
A short crop scare seems well under
way, but much depends on whether the

The New Orleans Tlmes-Democrat
says: "Again the Government failed to
confirm the previous day’s private rain
reports from Texas and Oklahoma.
This sort of thing has now begtin to
get on the nerves of the talent, and even
those bulls who. in the past, have been
most outspoken in support of the accu
racy of the Government data are ready
to believe that beneficial rains have
come to many sections in the West
without being indicated by the Govern
ment.
“This creates a wide open question in
the minds of both talent and trade. The
mere fact that there is reason to doubt
the complete dependability of any in
formation on which the rings rely, in
jects the element of uncertainty where
assurance alone should exist. More par
ticularly is this true at this time, be
cause Sunday, the date on which the
Government will predicate Its crop con
dition percentages wilb be made up.
Naturally, then the question arises:
Will the Government crop condition
data be In a measure based on Govern
ment weather information, in so far as
it applies to crop needs, or only on the
actual status of the crop. Government
weather to the contrary notwithstand
ing.
“The theorist who depends on the
Government weather reports expeots
much more bullish condition percentage
figures for Texas and Oklahoma than
does the man who accepts private rain
reports from the West at approximately
face value.”
* * •
J. B. Turner, of Memphis, reports the
following on the condition of the cotton
crop for the week ending August 22:
Deterioration in the condition of the
cotton crop is indicated for the week in
every’ State, save North and South
Carolina, where the status has been
barely maintained. In all the important
cotton-producing States the loss appears
to have been in excess of what may be
termed usual for the season attending
the gradual maturity of the plant.
“Except in Louisiana, where showers
aided the boll weevil, the loss has been
due entirely to lack of rainfall. In Geor
gia and to a smaller extent in Alabama,
the plant, which had been abundantly
nourished by frequent mins, was
checked In growth, and gives evidence
of inability to mature the young fruit
unless more rains come. In the Missis
sippi Valley the plant is hardier than
in the Southeast, but needs moisture to
maintain the promise that has hereto
fore been its need.
“In Texas and Oklahoma long con
tinued drouth, with accompanying
scorching sunshine, has dried out the
soil and the plant has wilted and
parched to an extent that promises only
very moderate recovery in the event
soaking rains faU at once. The late
growth that rain would produce would
its fruition. ”
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, Aug. 23,—Canadian Pa
cific showed the best strength at the
opening of the stock market to-day, ad
vancing to 221 for a gain of 2 points
over Friday’s final.
Much of the strength In Canadian Pa
cific was due to buying orders cabled
from the other side, as there was no
session of the London Stock Exchange
and speculators there had to do their
Saturday trading in some other market.
After half an hour, however, Canadian
Pacific lost some of its advance.
The tone was strong Among the
other advances were the following:
Amalgamated Copper. %; United States
Steel common. 4; Union Pacific, *4;
Southern Pacific, 4; Reading. %; New
York, New Haven and Hartford, 4;
General Electric, %; Chino Copper, *4;
Chesapeake and Ohio, %; St. Paul %,
and American Locomotive, 1.
The strength in American Locomotive
was due to a statement by the president
relative to the decision to cease manu
facturing automobiles. That branch of
the business always proved a losing
venture, and with it eliminated, the
financial prospects from the straight
manufacture of locomotives are much
brighter. Lehigh Valley began 4 lower,
but recovered.
The curb was steady.
The market closed firm.
Government bonds unchanged. Other
bonds steady.

night that the market was c aping for
an upturn, and that the movement of
winter wheat will be light until there
has been a sufficient advance to Induce

however, aopear to be working harder
to talk the price lower than by actual
siiort sales.”
