Aristocracy of Southern Chicken
World Present as Auditorium
Doors Are Opened.
To the accompaniment of a medley
of cackles, quacks and the noisy
crowing of the barnyard chanticleer,
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 sho\. There were more than
this number last year, but the oltl-
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 le-
terrent to their egg-laying proclivi
ties which have given them fame In
the land.
All of the old standbys—such as the
Plymouth Rocks. Cochins, Wyau-
dottes of gleaming 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 prizes 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.

cotton market at the opening to-day,
and first prices were at a net advance
of 6 io 15 points from the Saturday's
close.

I "is, coupled with i .«• map indicating a

the entire belt, followed by a severe
cold wave toward Thursdaj and two of

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 -1 points higher than the previous
close at the end of the first hour.
The feature of the market during the
early afternoon was the lack of pressure
to sell. A prominent spot house esti
mated ginnings to December l, at 11,-
.(•>.000 bales. This brought out active,
covering by shorts. Wall street and I
\\ estern shorts covered freely and local
traders were inclined to take the long
side temporarily. However, a few have
•much faith in a sustained advance.
Large 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 ihe close the market was steady,

HAYWARD & CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
new ORLEANS, Dec. 1.—The Times-
Democrat’s correspondents make the
growth 13.660.000 bales. 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 bold on all de
clines. This estiamte agrees well with
the general opinion here of production
this year.
V ery bad weather has prevailed in the
belt since Friday, and indications are
for continued bad weather until the
middle of the week. when a strong cold
wave will bring with it clearing and
cold weather.
The Tlmes-Democrat’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 point# higher
and ruled firm, with prices gradually ad
vancing to 13.37 for March, without
much support. The idea of general busi
ness depression seems to have taken so
much 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.

throughout the day.—J. M. Anderson.

Columbus. Ga., wires E. F. Hutton &

percentage has been ginned from Dallas

the exception of the delta and Arkan

Clark: “The weather map shows fair
in north Louisiana, north Mississippi
and Tennessee; cloudy over the rest of

bales without linters will he published
December 12 at 1 p. m , our time.
• * *
Washington forecast for week: Rain
Monday in South Atlantic States, but
generally fair thereafter. Generally fair
weather will also remain in the cotton
belt, except possibly some rain about
Tuesday over the extreme northwest

The New Orleans Times-Democrat
herewith presents its annual cotton
crop estimate:
By States:
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 ... * lS.t60.000
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.

NEW YORK. Dec. 1 There was light

with prices generally steady to a. shade
higher on buying, inspired by the ad
vance in cotton There were no signs
of a revival in outside trade, however,
and the crude situation is a trifle easier
off anything There is taJk that many
mills will have to let go their holdings
before the close of tne year or shut
down.
December oil was off a trifle, owing to
