THE STOCK MARKET
NEW YORK.—The tone of the
opening stock market Friday was
very irregular. Some stocks were
bid up for the purposes of support as
selling to realize depressed others.
Representative stocks began to
show strength in sympathy with the
jump to record figures by the Union
Pacific common and preferred and
heavy accumulation of New York Cen
tral. The opening losses were more
than made up but in the meantime
there was quiet selling of many of
the obscure specialties
Near 11 o’clock a sudden slump of
1% in Amalgamated Copper under
mined the market and prices fell
back (ll^around.
The tone was heavy and dull at
noon. Bonds were Steady.

stocks which lowered them 2 1-4
each from the highest acelerated real
izing movement, which had been go
ing on elsewhere, and there was a
severe break in prices. More than a
dozen of the leading stocks sold be
tween 1 and 2 points below Thurs
day's closing.
Supporting orders were distributed
which drove shorts to cover. The
Union Pacific stocks rallied 2 points
each and the rest of the list a good
traction. The market paused at the
higher range and did not seem to
respond much when Union Pacific
touched 21114.

COTTON ROW GOSSIP
Receipts in Augusta for today are
only 14 bales which is a considerable
decrease under the 184 bales re
ceived on 'the same day in 1908.
.
The market sold off on bearish news
from Sexas aceountof rains in that
territory which are said to be of
benefit to the crop.
Dispatches were received on the Ex
change reporting rains in Texas and
a diversity of opinion as to whether
they would injure or benefit the crop.
New York cotton opened off from 7
to 8 points and in a few minutes sold
off 16 points.
The estimate for the ports receipts
for August 13th is 1300 bales of cot
ton.
The receipts for Houston for Au
gust 13th are 1584 bales of cotton, all
of which is new. It looks like the
new crop has begun to move in
earnest.
Later dispatches from Texas con
firm the reports of rain and state that
while the rain will no doubt be of
some benefit' to the crop that It had
come too late to save i't and that the
Texas crop was in a very critical con
dition.
The cotton receipts for August 13th
in Cincinnati, Memphis, Mobile and
Nodfolk show an increase over this
day last year.
At 11 a. m. the bids for cotton in
New York were 12.22 for August, 12.13
for October, 12.10 for January, and
12.11 for March.
The market is very active in New
York and there seems to be consider
able buying and selling.
The rainfall in Texas is considered
as being very beneficial to the crops
by a number of the Augusta cotton
men. The crop still has a number of
weeks in which to mature and the
rain, while being late, will fill the
crop out.
Twelve cents Beems 1/> be the turn
ing point for buying and selling of
cotton. When the price is above the
12-eent mark the sales are large, and
when it drops below 12 cents there Is
considerable buying.
The farmers in every section of the
country seem to be satisfied with 12-
cent cotton and sell freely.
In the event that the weather con
ditions are favorable the cotton sea
son in Auguata will open up by the
first week in September and by the
10th of September the crops in this
vicinity will ( be moving heavily.
The present weather conditions are
regarded as being very beneficial to
the crop in every part of the cotton
belt except in Texas, and unless
something unforeseen happens this
year will be a very prosperous one
for the farmer.
Savannah spots are quoted as 12 1-4
for August 13th, and the market re
ported as quiet.
New York spots are quoted as 12.80.
The sales in New York today are
612 bales. Stocks in New York are
105.528. The market closed steady,
with January from 12.12 to 12.13,
March from 12.13 to 12.14, October]
12.14 to 12.15, and December at 12.13.
The high point, for October was i
12.24 and the low point 12.06, high
point for December 12.2] and low:
point 12.04, for January 12.18 was
high point and 12.03 low point, for
March high point was 12.19 and’ low
12.04.
The largest receipts for Augusta to j
day are from South Carolina.
OEORGIA-CAROL!NA CROP REPORTS
—FROM THE AUGUSTA DISTRICT=
COLUMBIA COUNTY.
Harlem, Ga.—C. P. Prather: The
cotton crop is rather late, but it will
be about the same as last year. The
acreage this year will be about the
same as last year, possibly a little
less. It will cost a little more to
market the crop. I think 12 cents is
a fair price for cotton. There is a
great deal of peas and sweet pota
toes raised here, and the crop will be
a good one. The farmers are in debt.
The corn crop is good and I think
that Columbia county will raise
enough corn and hay to last until
next year.
— , •
EMANUEL COUNTY.
Swainsboro, Ga.—R. S. Bradley:
The cotton crop is fair, but not as
good as last year. The acreage is
about the same. The cost of market
ing tl » crop will be about the same.
About i,500 bales have already been
sold for fall delivery. I think 12
cents is a good price. I do not favor
holding for more. The crop is ten
days later than last year. The pros
pects for the Other crops are excel
lent. Considerable attention is being
paid to trucking, grain crops, stock
raising, etc. With a fair price for
cotton we should be in great shape
as w e will make a bumper crop of
food stuffs.
GLASCOCK COUNTY.
Gibson, Ga—J. W. Whiteley: The
condition of cotton is 70 per cent,
which is about the same as this time
last year. The acreage is also about
the same. The cost of making this
year’s crop would be about 20 per
cent greater than last year’s. The
crop will, in my opinion, bring more
than 12 cents. Th e crop is very late
if any. The other crop are fair. The
financial condition of the farmers is
fairly good and above the average.
GREENE COUNTY.
Greensboro, Ga.—McConners, Thomp
son, Boswell Co.: The cotton crop is
fair and it is a little butter than last
year. The acreage is about the same.
The cost of marketing the crop will
be 15 per cent more. About 20 per
cent of the crop has been sold for
future delivery. I think that 12 cents
is a good price for cotton. The crop
is two weeks late. The prospects
for other crops is good. More hay
and grains are being raised now than
last year. The financial condition is
not very good. Where the crops have
been worked they are good, but many
farms will not make much on that
account.
HANCOCK COUNTY.
Sparta, Ga.—L. C. Miller: The crop
is about 78 per cent. The crop last
year was about the same. The acre
age is off 10 per cent to last year.
About 1,000 bales have been sold for
future delivery, and about 1,000 bales
eould be had for 12% cents f. o. b.
Sparta. I think that 12% cents is a
good price. The prospects for corn,
liay, grains, etc., are extra fine. The

THE AUGUSTA HERALD
farmers generally are In debt, but
12% cents cotton will relieve the
pressure. ,
Sparta, Ga.—J. A, Thomas: The
crop will be about 80 per cent in this
section and this is about 10 per cent
better than last The acreage
is about 10 per cent off. The cost
of marketing the crop will be about
20 per cent over last year. Very lit
tle cotton has been sold for future
delivery. I think 12 cents will satisfy
the majority of the farmers. The
crop is about two weeks late. The
prospects for a good corn, hay, etc
crop are fine. Some attention is be
ing paid here to stock raising. The
farmers are rather hard up, on ac
count of the short crops for the past
two years, and the recent panic.
Avera, Ga—R. W. Dixon: Cotton
condition in this section is about 70
per cent of a crop. I think 5 per cent
better than last year. The acreage
is about the same as last year. The
cost of making and marketing this
crop will be 15 or 20 per cent more
than last year’s crop, on account of
high price of provisions and labor.
Twelve and a half cents will do to
commence with, but the end will be
15 cents cotton. The crop has deteri
orated 7 per cent in the last 15 days
in this section. It is ripening up and
commenced opening and will be ready
for market about as early as usual.
County average is 70 per cent. Some
cotton sold; not over 5 per cent. No
more attention paid to stock raising
than usual. Corn, sweet potatoes and
hay is very good. Farmers in good
condition and they affirm they are
going to sow a large small-grain crop.
I bid them speed.
Portal, Ga—R. W. DaLoach: The
sea island and the short staple cot
ton crops in this section will both
fall short this year. The crops will
not be as good as last year. This
was caused by too much rain. The
acreage will not be over half. I am
in favor of holding the cotton, but
12 cents is about all the farmers can
get. The prospects for a good corn,
hay, sweet potato and sorghum crop
is fine. The financial condition of
the farmers is very good. I expect
that as a whole the crops will be very
good. There has been too much rain,
but with good weather the farmers
will pull through.
ABBEVILLE COUNTY
McCormick, S. C.—W. O. Sturkey:
The cotton crop in this section will
make 70 per cent, and this is even
a little better than last year, when
many of the fields were abandoned.
The acreage is about 10 per cent bet
ter. I think it will cost 25 per cent
more to market the crop this year.
Twelve cents is a good price for the
cotton. Th e crop is two weeks late.
The corn, hay, sweet potatoes and sor
ghum crops are very good. The farm
ers are in a fairly good condition fi
nancially.
PEOPLE’S FORUM
Prohibitionist Replies.
Aiken, S. C., August 12, 1909.
Editor Herald: I notice in your
paper of which I am a reader, an arti
cle headed "They Will Break Their
Faith.” This means the prohibition
ist. The writer wishes to state
right here that the prohibitionists aro
able to take care of themselves and
this iB what is worrying the trashy
whiskey element, and if they are mad
it is no one’s business but their own.
Mr. Richards is all right and is bet
ter than those who talk about him.
Yes, the remnant of wet cbunties
which will not be voted out next
week will be wiped out in January.
The whiskey traffic 1b a curse to anv
communfty, and the good people are
going to rid themselves of the evil.
The writer never was a local optionist
simply bcause It. gives all classes of
men the right at the ballot box, local
option gives the gambler, the drunk
ard, the loafer, the outlaw, men who
never go to church, don’t regard the
Sabbath, don’t respect themselves or
no body else, the privlege to vote
againßt. the moral, the God fearing
men who are working to uplift civi
lization and good citizenship. It is
a great pity that the whiskey element
can’t be colonized and sent away from
among good people. And some of ths
old whiskey gaga will make fun of the
good women who are going around
trying to help to do good. God bless
the women, they are the cause of this
’temperance movement and they are
one of God’s greatest gifts. The
writer never was a Ben Tillman man,
but he told the truth when he said a
poor man had no business drinking
whiskey.
Yours for National Prohibition,
L. POWKDL,
Aiken, S. C.

NEW YORK. —The market opened
easy on disappointing cables and pri

were aggressive from the start and
prices weakened under the pressure.
There was a ffilr demand from com
mission houses and from abroad,
where trade is gradually improving
and consumers are getting uneasy
over continued reports of deteriora
tion. This demand can easily become
important and with the present large
outstanding short Interest sales
should be made only after good ad
vances.—Argo, Jester & Co.
