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. UPS COTTDSI UP Active Bidding by Shorts, Spot House Demand, Light Sales Contributed Strength. Marshall Field & Co.

Liverpool came in a few points better than duo and reported good buying. I "is, coupled with i .«• map indicating a bad spell ot weather general rains over the entire belt, followed by a severe cold wave toward Thursdaj and two of 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 -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, w ith prices at-a net advance of 2 to io points from the final quotations of Sat urday.

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.

Hutton & Co.: “Unless ginning to December l is 300.000 bales more than last year, the crop will not be as large. A far greater percentage has been ginned from Dallas to here than in 1912 to this date, with the exception of the delta and Arkan sas River bottom.

Fourteen years of early gen- eraJ frost show about 12% per cent ginned for period 1st to 14th. I^te 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. This is true of States both separately and collectively. Did we not have one of the earliest general killing frosts then? What wil 1 he the result? Those who need cotton and do not buy It now may And trouble in getting it later.
