There were a number of conspicuous gains while declines are less numer ous and small. Louisville and Nash ville was prominent with a rise of 1 5-8 and copper stocks are all strong. Although were was a temporary ofieck on short covering and bidding up of Amalgamated Copper and North ern Pacific, market again declined briskly. Reading and Union Pacific were the weak features of the rail road list, and United States Steel among industrials. Quench You#Thirst With A Bottle Of El res Whcrevcr Soft Drinks Are Sold.

Chem 50% COTTON ROW GOSSIP The section around Augusta has had a sufficiency of rain. About a week or ten days of dry weather is what is needed now to mature the bolls. New York futures are off from 4 to 5 points at the opening and there is a great deal of fluctuation in the market. The demand for cotton in Liver pool is good and the sales are re ported as 10,000 bales. The visible supply of cotton in the United States for 1909 will show an increase of 615,178 bales over la§t year's supply. The Augusta cotton receipts for Wednesday are 67 bales, for the same day last year, they were 554 bales. This marked decrease is attributable to the fact that the recent high price of cotton has depleted the stock co'tton in this vicinity. It is rumored that the advance in the New York market Tuesday was caused by the great demand for c»t ton. There is a healthy demand for cotton on the continent as the foreign spinners are beginning to buy. There were 5,100 bales sold in New York Tuesday for the continent. There are 210,000 hales of cotton in warehouses in the ports, of these 109,000 bales are in New York ware houses. Wheat opened up with an advance of 3-4 of a cent per bushel. Corn is quoted as 1-4 of a cent in advance of Tuesday’s quotation. The high point for October cotton today is 12.13 cents. The bears are off the job today and the bulls seem to have control of the market. A prominent farmer from Thomson stated on the floor of the cotton ex change that the crops in his section would be a great deal better than last year’s crop. He stated 'that ori his farm that he had made careful exam ination of his farm and estimated that the number of bolls already weli de veloped would net him as much cotton as he made last year. Liverpool market opened 6 1-2 to 7 up as was expected but eased off a little In later cables. After the New York market opened it improved and closed at the opening figure. Argo, Jester & Co , formerly of Au gusta, Ga., have transferred their headquarters to New York. The firm has opened offices at 82 Beaver street in the Beaver building. Argo, Jester & Co., does not come into the mar ket as a new firm, for It has a large and active Southern clientel, and is well and favorably known In the cot ton world. The firm enters the mar ket here under the most favorable cir cumstances. The firm has secured the services of E. D. Marsh, as man ager of its office, and no one in the market has more friends than he. — New York Commercial. HEREAFTER WINE MASH MOST BE USED IN DISTILLERIES Rectifiers Can’t Make it For Production Com pound Liquors. WASHlNGTON—Rectifiers are pro hibited from making wine mash and using It for the production of com pound liquors, such as home-made wines, in an order issued by the act ing commissioner of internal revenue. This is done to prevent distilled spirits being put on the market with out the payment of internal revenge tax. Hereafter wine mash will have to be used on distillery premises. GEORGiA-CARGLiNA CROP REPORTS =FROM THE AUGUSTA DISTRICT-== EMANUEL COUNTY. Garfield, Ga., J. McMure. —My esti mate of cotton condition on August 1 is 87 1-2 per cent. This is 90 per cent, as compared with last year. Acreage is 5 per cent less. I esti mate the cost of marketing this year s crop at 15 per cent less than last year. I am in favor of selling for 12 cents when ginned. The crop Is two weeks late. Prospects for crops besides cotton are line. Increased attention- is being given to grain and hog raising. The general condition of things is good, and the larmers are in better financial condition than for two years. JEFFERSON COUNTY. Wrens, Ga., S. B. Wiggins. —The condition of the cotton crop is about a fourth better than last year. There is about one fifth less cotton planted than last year. The cost of market ing the crop will be greater than last year. No cotton, f-r far as I know, has been sold in advance for fall de livery. 1 am in favor of holding for more than 12 cents, hut I consider that a good price. The crop is fif teen days late. The corn crop is short. Sweet potatoes and hay and sorghum are good, other erops are or dinary. a great deal more attention is being paid to trucking, peaches, grains and stock raising. The gen eral financial condition of the farm ers is good. I have only 85 acres, estimated sixty bales. That is about the average in the eighty-first district in which I live. LINCOLN COUNTY. Double Branches, Ga., A. M. Moore. —The cotton condition is 75 per cent, which is 90 per cent of last year at this time. The acreage is about 85 per cent of last year’s. It should cost 20 per cent more to market. About 1,000 bales have already been sold for fall delivery. 1 am opposed to selling for future delivery. The crop is 15 days late. Prospects for corn, sweet potatoes, hay, etc., are as good as I ever saw. More attention is be ing paid to trucking, peaches, grain crops, hog, cattle and horse raising. General financial condition of the farmers is good. Lockhart, Ga., J. M. Bussey.—Cot ton condition is about 90, which is 10 per cent better than last year. There is a five per cent decrease in the acre age. It will cost 20 per cent more to market the crop. There is little cotton sold for future delivery. The crop is 10 or 12 days late. Prospects for corn, sweet potatoes, etc., are bet ter than for years. More attention is being paid to trucking, peaches grain crops, etc. The financial condition of the farmers is somewhat poor, but if crops and prices continue good they will come out very good. Our crop has not been cultivated well, and we have had a great deal of rain, so crops will not stand much hot sunshine. ROCKDALE COUNTY. \ Conyers, Ga. t Wood Brothers. —This county ought to make 80 per cent of a full crop. Under favorable condi tions from now on the crop will be better than last year. The acreage is 5 per cent. less. The cost of market ing this year's crop will be about the same as iast year, as our farmers do most of their work. Between 1,000 and 1,500 bales have been sold for fall delivery. Twelve cent cotton we think will bring out most of the crop necessary to cover indebtedness. The crop is about two weeks late. Corn is not as good as last year, though sweet potatoes, hay, sorghum, etc., are good. Grain crops have been in creased In this county. Some of the farmers are in good financial condi tion. A good crop and good prices will put our farmers in a good, aver age condition. Our crops are late, caused by too much rain, which al lowed grass to get ahead of the farm ers, and necessitated late working. They are practically clean now, though, and we think a late, dry fall •will give us better crops than last season. TALIAFERRO COUNTY. Sharon, Ga., O. D. Moore. —Cotton in this section is about 75 per cent, and in the whole county 68 per cent. This is about the same as at this time last year. The acreage is about 5 per cent less. I think it will cost 25 per cent more to market the crop. About 15 per cent has been sold ahead. 1 am in favor of selling some for 12 cents, and holding the rest for higher prices. The crop is 10 to 15 days late. Prospects for corn, sweet potatoes, etc., are very good. Spe cial attention is being given to grain cfops. The financial condition of the farmers is not very good. We have been having too much rain for the last 20 days. TALIAFERRO COUNTY. Sharon, Ga., John W. Burke. —The condition of the cotton crop is about the same as this time last year. The acreage has been cut down 15 per cent. The cost of marketing the crop will be 20 per cent more than in 1908. About 15 per cent of the crop has already been sold for fall delivery. Twelve cents for cotton will suit me. The crop Is two weeks later than last year. The prospects for com and other crops is fair. The farmers are manifesting some In creased interest in the other crops such as trucking, peaches, grain and hog. cattle and horse raising. 'the general financial condition of the farmers is not ns good as it should be. The continuous rain for the past week Is ruining cotton In some sec tions. tllack root is also showing in some places. WASHINGTON COUNTY. Agricola, Ga„ A. C. Harrison. —The condition of cotton is about 80 per cost. This is ten per cent better than A jUJii AUGUa'TA HjbiJtCiLXiAr last year.

Twelve cents is a good price for cotton. This year’s crop is as early as last year’s. The prospects for other crops are good.

If no serious setback is had the county will be in a much better financial condition than last year. ABBEVILLE COUNTY. McCormick, S. C., M. L. B. Sturkey, —Cotton condition in this section is 90 per cent, and in the couny 80 peri cent. This is the same as last year. The acreage is about the same, though it may be 10 per cent. It should cost about the same to market this year’s crop, 10 per cent of which has already been sold for fall delivery. A ma jority of the farmers think 12 cents is a good price. The crop is 10 days later than last year. Prospects for other crops are the best in 10 years. More attention is being paid to other crops. Financial condition of the farmers is considerably lower than last year, but 12 cent cotton will re lieve the situation. We are having too much rain now for cotton, and need sunsnine. AIKEN COUNTY. Samaria, S. C., J. E. Bragden Cot ton is pretty sorry in this section. My estimate is 70 per cent. This is not so good as last year. The acre age is less than last year. The cost of marketing the crop will be about the same. About 10 per cent of the crop has been sold for fall delivery. I am in favor of holding for a higher price than 12 cents.

The crop is possibly 10 days later than last year. Pros pects for other crops were never bet ter. A good deal of attention is be ing paid to other crops, especially truck. The general financial condi tion of the farmers is fair, and bet ter than for three years. General prospects are good. There is plenty of labor and good markets. Klein, S. C., H. C. Creed. —Cotton is very spotted. On poor land It will make nothing, while good landß, high ly manured, will make good crops. Cotton Is 10 per cent less than It was last year at this time. About 10 per cent less acreage was planted. It will cost about the same to market the crop. About 10 per cent of the crop is sold ahead. I am willing to take 12 cents. The crop is three weeks late. A lot of attention is being given to grain, melons, canteloupes, cucum bers, potatoes, and more attention will ’be given them next year than ever before. The farmers are behind some. Klein, S.

THE WIZARD BURBANK NOW CALLED A “FAKE ’ “A Man’s Success is Usual ly Measured By Vin dictiveness of His Ene mies,” He Retorts. LOS ANGELES—P. t). Barnhart, editor of the Pacific Gardener, ad dressing the Pasadena Gardeners’ as sociatlon, scored Luther Burbank as a "nature fakir’’ and the organization adopted the resolution condemning Burbank’s methods. It was stated at the sossion that a report had been made after the per sonal Investigation of Burbank’s prop erty and plant at Santa Rosa, and that substantially the same statement will be forwarded to the New York Florists’ association. Mr. Barnhart was the man sent to gather the data, and he spoke of what had been embodied In his report as based on a visit made July 14. SANTA ROSA—Luther Burbank, when seen regarding the resolution of the Pasadena Gardeners’ association, said he cared nothing about It. “A man’s success Is usually measur ed by the vindictiveness of hiH ene mies/’ said Burbank. "The success attending the creations In fruits and flowers which T have been able to give to the world, have proved the worth of my efforts.’’ , ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ ♦ THE WEATHER ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ COTTON REGION BULLETIN Augusta District.
