ADVANCE IN COTTON DUE
TO TEXAS CONDITIONS
■
Fear the Heavy Rains in That
State Basis for Alarming Re
ports Regarding Crop.
New York. The advance *n cotton fu
ture prices during the week was due
almost entirely to the continued unfav
orable aspect of the Texas situation.
Further heavy rains in that state were
the basis f<jY many alarming reports re
c ird ng the crop, which by some is now
i-lalined to be not only from two to three
weeks late but choked with weeds in
those flections where rains have been
« ontinuous for some time past. While
the trade has been flooded with tele
graphic reports of a most pessimistic
tenor there are many who still hold to
the opinion that Texaxs affairs are not
as black as painted. However, It seems
reasonably safe to assume, from present
barometric indications, that the rainy
spell Is near an end and that clear skies
will be encountered from now on. in
which event the prevailing •apprehen
sion over the new crop w ( ll be in a great
degree dispelled. There is littl ques
tion thaa there has been a severe se
tback in Texas, but that it Is irretriev
able Is not borne out by past experience.
One year the Texas crop was not fully
planted until the second week in June
because of conditions similar to those
which prevail this year, and yet that
season the Texas yield was an extreme
ly large one as compared with previous
crops; and there have been many seasons
of very heavy April and May rains when
the actual yield per acre wns consider
ably above the average Granting that
conditions in parts of Texas are at the
moment unfavorable a comprehensive
survey of the entire belt leads to the
conclusion that ns a whole the outlook
Is promising. From dependable sources
a summary of crorp conditions by states
Is ns fo’lows: Texas—crop two to three
weeks late, much replanting necessary,
southern portion* doing better than cen
tral and northern, prospects poor but
not too lnte to make a full crop, aere
age materially Increased. Oklahoma—
crop week to ten days late, prospects
fine. Arkansas -crop a little late,
acreage increased, outlook fair. North
Fa roll n a—acreage about the mime as last
year, planting a little late, outlook up
to the average. South Carolina acre
age increased early planting doing well, :
prospects on the whole good. Alabama
crop ten days early, cotton up to good
stands, farm work well up. acreage
larger, prospects brilliant. Tooulstana--*
acreage larger crop late In a few seo
ttons cultivation better ttian usual,
prospects good. Mississippi—crop gener
nliv on time acreage lnrger. Delta’s out
look brilliant, prospects on the whole
hr gt. Tennessee full acreage, pros
pects excellent. This Is the season of
the year for cron scares snd it must he
expected that alarming reports will be
a matter of daily occurrence for the im
mediate future at least. As a matter of
f irt. there is no oecaslon ns yet to
deem the crop wors off than backward
In th western territory, and this phase
»'f the situation is more than offset hv
the acreage Increase which Is now nd
-1 uitl o’ Itlflfl k local trade
pH per in Its preliminary report of acre
age some weeks ago estimated the In
crease at 2.7 per cent. The figure is
now raised to 2.(1 per cent., and It Is
probable thnt other crop reporting bu
reaus will show a revision upward in
their subsequent acreage estimates. Ad
mitting for their subsequent acreage
estimates. Admitting for argument’s
sake, however, that the recent advance
was lustlf ed by retarded growth .It
would certainly seem that the prevailing
preies which ire materially higher for
this time of the season than for a mim
bev of venrs past, fufy discount all ad
verse developments which have so far
been encountered.

HER OWN WORK
And is Glad to Do So, as She
Was Denied This Privilege
For Two Years.
Richmond, Ky.—Mrs. N. V. Willis, of
this place, says: “I suffered nr over
j three years with womanly trouble, and
tried many different treatments, but
none of them seemed to do me any
Kood. I had almost given up to die,
when a friend of mine begged me to
try Cardul, the woman's tonic. I got
a bottle, and began to feel a great deal
better after the first few doses. I
then got four bottles, and after taking
these 1 was cured.
I don t know what a female pain is
now, do all of my work, eat anything
I want, and feel like a 16 year old
girl.
I never expect to be without Cardul
in my house as long as I live, as X
firmly believe it saved my life, and I
will praise it .o all of my suffering
lady friends.”
Cardul is a purely vegetable remedy,

j ducts. Its ingredients act in a helping,
building way, on the womanly consti
tution, It has been relieving worn-
I inly troubles for over half a century,

more than ordinary value as a tonic
for weak women.
You can rely on Cardul. It will do

How to Save
Your Eyes
Try This Free Prescription.
Bo your eyes give you trouble? Do
you already wear eyeglasses or spec
tacles? Thousands of people wear these
“windows” who might easily dispense
with them. You may be one of these
and it is your duty to save your eyes
before It Is too late. The eyee are neg
lected more than any other organ of the
entire body. After you finish your day's
work you sit down and rest your mus
cles, but how about your eyes? Do you
rest them? You know you do not. You
read or do something else that keeps
your eyes busy; you work your eyea un
til you go to bed. That la why so many
have strained eyea and finally other eye
troubles that threaten partial or total
blindness Ryeglusses are merely
crutches; they never cure. This free pre
scription, which has benefited the eyes of
so many, may work equal wonders for
you. l*se It a short time. Would you
like your eye troubles to disappear as if
by magic? Try th s prescription. Go
to the nearest wideawake drug store and
get a bottle of Optona tablets: fill a
two-ounce bottle with warm water, drop
in one tablet and sl ow It to thorough
ly dissolve. With this liquid bathe the
eyee two to tow times da Iv. Just note
how quickly your eyes clear up and how
soon the inflammation wi’l disappear.
lH>n‘t be afraid to use it; it Is abso
’ Hitely harmless Many who are now b lnd
might have saved the r eves had they
started to care for them In time. This

SALAD SEASON FOR

Atlanta, Ga.—The salad season has

local modistes claim to have direct
from aris, and the new straw hats
decked with lettuce and radishes
have a most appetizing aspect. T>.ey
have the disadvantage however, tnat
should they be discarded and left In
the dining room they run the risk of
being drenched with oil and vinegar
by the obtuse males of the family
and handed round after the roast.
There Is no limit to the variety of
vegetable and garden trimmings that
are to be applied. Vegetables and
fruit vlt with each other for iwpular

Flowers For Newspaper Man's
Crave Not Needed at All
Atlanta, Ga. —The flowers which
were provided by loving friends for
Britt Craig, popular newspaper man,
last night, are destined to wither away
in their vases without the melancholy
honor of adorning his grave. For Britt
isn't dead. He isn’t even sick. But
thereby hangs a tale. The flowers real
ly were provided in good faith.
Atlanta rejoices in a motordrome. A
motordrome is a dish-shaper motor
-cyole race track, built out of slats,
with walls almost perpindicular—so
steep in fact that a motorcycle has to
be going between fifty and one hun
dred miles an hour before it can climb
up the side of the track at all.
People got tired of the motorcycle
game because nobody got killed often
enough, anti some 'original minded
daredevil figured out that it would be
a great stunt to have a sure-enough
auto, with four wheels and a six cylin
der racing engine. A driver named
THE MORNING WITH
THE RECORDER
A little episode which took place
some time ago may have escaped the
attention of enough people to make
it worth telling again., It was some
two or three years ago that a young
gentleman from the Hill was arrest
ed and locked up drunk, in one of the
■iron cages of the guard room. He
was in no wise downcast at this and
sat in his compartment whistling at
the top of his lungs—just a-whistling.
A big tough who was in the next place
was awakened by this and consider
ably annoyed. “Hey, there!” he said.
“You , just because
you're in a cage, don’t think you are
a mocking bird.”
Nothing like that ever happens any
more in these dull times.
A negro named W. L. Lee was
brought up this morning for very
nearly annihilating his wife He was
taking a bath in a small tub in the
room, and while he was incapacitated
and helpless with soap on his face,
and afraid to open his eyes, she took
a base advantage of him by going
through his trousers’ pocket* and for
aging, as it were, for small change.
When he discovered this he had a
rush of blood to the head, and as one
of the ear-witnesses next door testi
fied. picked up the bath-tub and fell
ed her to the floor. This, however
turned out to be inaccurate. It was
not the tub but an “ice cream” howl
which he had used against her. She,
the wife, done up in bandages and
sticking plaster, produced several
large pieces of the shattered ice
cream bowl (heavy cut glass, at least
three-quarters of an inch thick), and
displayed them to the court. Exhibit

Kdgars, it was announced, was going
to drive a big car at racing speed
around the motordrome. Nobody be
lieved it until the fact was added to
the story published in the papers that
Britt Craig was going to act as the
mechanician. Then everybody knew
it might be true.
So Britt’s friends bade him a fond
farewell. The beautiful young lady
with the curly golden hair who sits at
the Constitution switch-board brought
ftim a nosegay of his favorite flowers,
and the city editor obtained the ad
dress of his parents in order to be able
to wire them the sad news.
The race was to take place last
night. But this is a story with no
and an anti-climax. There
wasn’t any race. Britt says Edgars

"We had been (pronounced bean)
sitting on the front piazza, my Aunt
and I (pronounced Arnt) when we
heard the cra-:h. We rushed across
to the house and when we entered
we saw the blood pouring from her

“I think Chamberlain’s Liniment is
lust splendid for rheumatism," writes
Mrs Dunburgh, Eldrtdge, N. Y. “It
has been used by myself and other
members of my family time and time
again during the past six years and
has always given the best of satis
faction." The quick relief from pain
which Chamberlain’s Liniment affords
is alone worth many times its cost.
For sale by all dealers.
