There certain ly was none done to wheat. In the southern half of Minnesota and South Dakota the corn planting is practically finished. Some that was thought to have rotted in the ground is growing nicely. In the three States there will be an increase in the acreage of corn. All small grains are looking fine.

NEW YORK, June 12.—The cotton market opened steady this morning, with prices irregular, being 2 points lower on near options and 2 to 4 points higher on distant months. This was better than had been looked for on the cable from Liverpool, which came only 2 points higher, whereas advances of 2 1-2 to 6 points had been expected. There was no special fea ture to the trading here. After the call near positions ad vanced 4 points, getting in line with other options. Business' was very small and confined chiefly to ring pro. fessionals. Around 11 o’clock the list sagged 1 to 3 points from the early high range. Weather conditions overnight were favorable, with indications pointing to unsettled, showery weather over the belt Sunday, except fair in South Texas. At the close the market was steady, with prices at a net decline of 1 to 3 points from the final quotations of Friday. Estimated cotton receipts: Monday. 1914.

The strong protest of Atlanta mer chants against the proposed increases in city business license* before the Council Tax Committee Friday after noon 1* expected to Yesult in a vic tory for them by persuading Council to refuse to add anything to tho cost of doing business in Atlanta. The City Salesmen’s Association, the Retail Merchants’ Association and other organizations were represented formally, and in addition there were more than 100 business men present. Henry Maler. vice president, and W. 8. Byck, chairman of the executive committee, of the Retail Merchants’ Association, presented forceful argu ments why It was bad business for the c’ty to force more money from the concerns who are furnishing a large part of the city’s payrolls. The Tax Committee was almost persuaded. Alderman J. R Seawright sought to rescind all increases that have been made. Other* of the com mittee would not agree to go quite that far. but they agreed to cut off many of the raises that have been made. When the report reaches Council the contention of the merchants will be taken to the floor, and it seems very likely that practically all pro posal* for increases in licenses will be killed. ‘Her Shattered Idol' At Strand Saturday A marvelous contrast betwaen tt»* life of the prehistoric cave man and the modern dweller in society is shown in the four-part Mutual mas ter picture at the 8trand this Satur day. entitled "Her Shattered Idol.” It is a double star bill, with both Mae Marsh and Robert Harron In the cast.

It happened when Mae Marsh, playtng the role of the heroine, elopes with one of the prin cipal characters, and in hie attempt to escape with his fair captive, he gets caught in the bog and grad ually begins to sink in the quick sands. The moments that follow, hi which the spectators wond*r as to whether the rescuers will reach them in time, are very exciting.
