COTTON MARKET REVIEW.
Liverpool Futures Closed at a Good

Houston. Thursday, January ..
Liverpool sent over . very good advance
this morning in response to the gain on
this side yesterday. Futures opened Arm.

receipts for several days. New York and
New Orleans futures did not show many
buliish proclivities. The Bombay receipts
Tor the week were very large, as compared
with previous years. and this is said to
have caused part OF the depression. In
addition TO this. reports of selling by large
spectators In New York. accounted for
the decline In that market.
New York futures opened firm, | to Q

barely steady, to 6 points on The clos

CALIFORNIA DRIED FRUITS

Thus far this season California has on.
1oyed almost absolute control OF the drlod
iruit markets OF the United States. we
nave exported large quantities, saws the
FRUIT grower. yet with all we have not
been able to keep prices at point where n
pront to the producer was visible. The
going prices In the East and West today
do but little more than pay the cost Of
package, packing, freight, commission and
interest. leaving the producer In many
cases not even a new dollar for an old
one. Just why our dried fruits should sell
80 low this season Is ono OF the questions
we are considering We do know that pres
ent prices are below the cost OF producing
and are very unsatisfactory all around.
We look and hope for better things In
1926. Shipments overland for the mouth
OF November from Northern and Central
California amounted to 19,6i6,O0o pounds
OF dried fruits of all kinds.
CORN SHIPMENTS.
The Chicago Times Herald says: or
the cars of corn shipped from Nebraska
and Kansas from November to December
"a, 1895. the distribution was as follows;
New orleans. 2796: Galveston, 1898; Mo-
bils, 49, st. Louis IA; Baltimore "a; Phila-
delphla. 30; Norfolk, 1li7; Port Royal aS;
Burlington, Iowa PIP; Beardstown Ill.
III; total Gilq In all probability most Of
the corn which went to Burlington, Iowa
came 10 Chicago, thus Chicago probably
received less than 200 cars out of q total
shipment OF 65t9 cars.

Brewers and distillers complain that
they suffer serious losses because
unauthorized persons buy up empty
bottles, refill them, closely initiate
the labels and style of putting up
and put these unwarranted produc-
tions upon the market as genuine
goods. A nonfillable bottle is there
fore among the needed inventions.
Just how it is to be made no one is
able to give the slightest idea. One
Of the largest distilleries in the
country claims to have been looking
for years for just this sort Of thing,
but without avail. It is hardly pos
sible to make a bottle that might
not be emptied and reflled by in
genious persons. Even though it
could be so arranged that it could
not be filed at the neck a piece
could readily be cut out, then &C.
mented in again in such a way as
practically to escape detection.

Palate TickEers.

AS delicacies the Greeks ate young
foxes caught in the autumn, robins
and sparrows and certain kinds of
fish shared by moonlight. There is
a scrap of an old Greek comedy in
which cook boasts of frying fish
so exquisitely that it threw him
grateful looks from the pan. A fa-
nous Greek dish was the Trojan
pig, half of it boiled and the other
half roasted. It was stuffed with
eggs, ortolans and thrushes. The
Romans ate snails-giant monsters
-fattened until their shells held an
incredible amount of snail. The
kettle in high class Roman kitch-
en- was often shaped like an ele-
plants head. The water was pour
ed through the trunk. The gridiron
might be a huge silver spider or
skeleton fish.

A Horse That Knew Too Much.

"A hOrS0 1nAG Ane" 100 MuChs
A Washington professional man
has an Intelligent horse. The gen.
tleman named is in the habit of 60
ing on occasional sprees, and when
he does the horse knows at once
that his driver does not want to go
home and takes him to a country
house about seven miles from the
city.
The professional man, when about
to spend an evening among the
boys, sends word to his wife that he
has been called out of town, and in
this way has been able to keep the
fact that he drinks a secret from ev-
cry one except the companions with
whom he goes on sprees.
A few evenings ago the wife and
a lady visitor started for a drive.
The horse noticed that something
was wrong with the way the lines
were grasped and started for the
country place, supposing that the
owner was intoxicated again. No
amount of pulling or whipping could
be made to change his course, and
about dark he halted in front of the
resort. Here, !Tom," called the
proprietor, :'--'s drunk again!
Come, help me carry him in. And,
Dan, put up the horse "

mother in. Virginia, and it will take
q strong pledge upon the husbands
part to induce her to return.
