To the accompaniment, of a medley of cackles, quacks and the noisy crowing of the barnyard chnntlcleer, the Southern International Poultry Association Show opened Monday afternoon at 1 o'clock in the Audi torium. “We have kept up to our reputa tion of having the greatest poultry in the entire South,” said T. M. Poole, secretary of the association, as ne proudly surveyed the hundreds of ex hibits that filled the main Audito rium, Taft Hall and even the stage. Exactly 3,790 birds are entered in the big shox. There were more than this number last year, but the offi cials in charge found It necessary to set a limit, and it was placed at 4,000, because of the impossibility properly to handle a larger number. These are the aristocrats of poul- trydom at the Auditorium. Some of the glossy feathered birds come from points as far distant as Columbus, <>., and Oxford, Pa.. and many of th^m have blue and red ribbons galore to attest to the blue-bloodedness of their ancestors. Most of them are “show broke.” They are so used to the crowds that they will hardly deign a glance at the passersby. And there are conscien tious old hens that will not even per mit the excitement to act as a de terrent to their egg-laying proclivi ties which have given them fame in the land. All of the old standbys—such as ihe Plymouth Rocks. Cochins, Wyan dot tes of glearning white and those with silver lacings, and various other styles in feathers; Leghorns and fu nereal Black Minorcas—are there. And there are many other breeds that are not so frequently seen on the poul try farms. The judges will get busy Tuesday morning. By^nightfall all of the rib bons will have been awarded. The children’s department, which forms one of the most interesting exhibits of the entire show, will be judged by Alf Bertling, Chamblee, Ga., and S. J. Harwell, Adel, Ga. The children’s exhibit is on the stage with the dis play of pigeons, bantams, turkeys and geese. One of the attractive exhibits is that of the Aldrich Poultry Farm, of Co* lumbus, Ohio, whose White Orping tons have taken prize® in many States of the Union. Other large exhibitors are Mrs. P. T. Calloway, of Wash ington, Ga.; Pope M. Long, of Cor dova, Ala., and E. E. Carter, of Knox ville, Tenn. PORT RECEIPTS.

NEW YORK, Dec 1 Good buying orders based on the crop estimate of The New Orleans Times-Democrat, whose figures were 18.660,000 hales, ex clusive of Mnters, gave strength to the cotton market at the opening to-day, and first prices were at a net advance of 6 to 15 points from the Saturday’s close. Liverpool came in a few points better than due and reported good buying ihifl, coupled with \ e map indicating a bad spell of weather general rains over, the entire belt, followed by a severe I cold wave toward Thursday and two of I the largest Southern mills on the floor | talking bullish on consumption, proved sufficient to send shorts to cover. This class of buying was followed by aggres sive buying and bulling by local bull forces, resulting in the list advancing 15 to 21 points higher than the previous close at the end of the first hour. The feature of the market during the earl> afternoon was the lack of pressure to sell. A prominent spot house esti mated ginnings to December 1, at 11.- «<*.,000 hales. This brought out active, covering by shorts. Wall street and i Western shorts covered freely and local' traders were Inclined to take the long side temporarily. However, a few hav« much faith in a sustained advance. l^arge spot interests of Philadelphia were credited with buying by balance and the rapid advance of the English market made things look much brighter for the bull element. The feeling here is very favorable for further upturns. At the close the market was steady, with prices at a net advance of 2 to io points from the final quotations of Sat urday.

This does not include linters or other additions. it says by way of comment that the aver age spinning power of yield is less than normal. Farmers sold freely as a rule, but are disposed to hold on all de clines. This estiamte agrees well with the general opinion here of production this year. Very bad weather has prevailed in the belt since Friday, and indications are for continued had weather until the middle of the week, when a strong cold wave will bring with It clearing and cold weather. The Times-Demoerat’s estimate will go far toward fixing views about avail able supply and Stimulate demand on the part of consumers. An unfavorable change Is shown this morning in financial matters. Silver in London is quoted %/i down; consols 3-16d down. So far it has not been learned to what this sudden depression is due. Our market opened 10 points higher and ruled firm, with prices gradually ad vancing to 13.37 for March, without much support. The idea of general busl- depression seems to have taken so 1' hold .of every one that activity is restrained. The situation in cotton, however, appears so strong from the standpoint of supply and minimum re quirements--that this article may easily prove an exception, and may advance in value without regard to the general sur rounding conditions.

Anderson. * * • There was some profit taking by those who were buyers on Saturday, commis sion houses being the leading sellers. • • • Columbus. Ga., wires E. F. Hutton &. Co.: y“l'nlese ginning to December 1 is 300.000 bales more than last year, the crop will not be as large. A far greater percentage haa been ginned from Dallas to here than in 1912 to this date, with the exception of the delta and Arkan sas River bottom. We’ve nothing to warrant an estimate of more than 14,- 000.000 bales, commercial crop No pres sure to sell in the southeast.” • •/ • J. G. Baldwin wires from Maxtor, N. C., under date of November 29: “Have you ever noticed the earlier the frost the greater per cent of crop ginned to November. Fourteen years of early gen eral frost show about 12 4a per cent ginned for period 1st to 14th. l«ate frost years about 10. Take any State sepa rately, the year It has early frost it will show largest per cent ginned to No vember 14. Tills is true of States both separately and collectively. Did we not have one of the earliest general killing frosts then? What will be the result? Those who need cotton and do not buy it now may find trouble in getting It later. Will it be American or foreign spinner who will make the mistake of waiting until the supply of cotton hae dwindled to such a small figure that it will take what may seem exorbitant prices to obtain it?" • • • NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 1.—Hayward & Clark: “The weather map shows fair In north Louisiana, north Mississippi and Tennessee; cloudy over the rest of the belt; general rains in Alabama and the Atlantics; little precipitation oc curred overnight elsewhere, but big rains feU Saturday in the Central States.” • • • Washington announces that the next ginners’ report, giving cotton ginned to December 1 will be issued at 9 a. m.. our time, December 8. The Government estimate of the crop in 600-pound gross bales without linters will be published December 12 at 1 p. m., our time. * • • Washington forecast for week: Rain Monday in South Atlantic States, but generally fair thereafter. Generali- fair weather will also remain in the cotton belt, except possibly some rain about Tuesday over the extreme northwest portion. It will be cold early in the week in the Gulf States, but probably no frosts of consequence for several days at least. • • • The New Orleans Times-Democrat herewith presents its annual cotton crop estimate: By State's: Georgia and Florida 2.500,000 Alabama 1,400.000 Arkansas 900,000 Louisiana 400,000 Mississippi 1,160,000 North Carolina 800,000 Oklahoma 800,000 South Carolina 1,400,000 Texas 3,900,000 Tennessee 400.000 Total 13,660,000 This approximate relates to the ac tual growth of linters, repacks and other similar additions. Correspondents report that farmers have sold freely as a rule. .They are inclined to hold whenever a sharp de cline occurs. A considerable part of the crop Is of low' grade and its spinning power will consequently be distinctly less than normal. ATLANTA LIVE STOCK MARKET. (By W. H.
