cow peas in the south as a fertilizing
crop. It also makes good hay. In
Virginia it is cut when about three
feet high and thoroughly cured. After
moving it makes a second crop, ma
lures its seed and is good pasture until

fertilizer, one man writing to an ex-
change that with no other fertilizer
he had increased his corn crop from
ten bushels to thirty bushels per acre.

RALEIGH COTTON MARX EFT.

New Yor, Oct 14.-The action Of
prices in to-day's market might be liken-
ed to the toilsome and arduous efforts
of a weakened animal to climb to a Sc
cure station only to be continually tum-
bled backward by a single hostile stroke.
The ready success of the bears in de-
pressing prices led them occasionally to
take profits. These spasmodic covering
movements were achieved without effect
ing any marked change in the general
level of prices and the upward course
soon resulted in an almost stagnant
condition. There would be spirit of
activity whenever the bears renewed
their raid and apparently the desire to
sell only ceased when the bears ceased

New York, Oct. 14-The dry goods
market is still inactive in most cotton
lines. The market shows no change eX-
cept in print cloths, which have weakened
again, but it is probable that sellers VIII
make concessions quietly to secure or
ders of any moment in staple cottons anu
similar lines. Wooden goods are well
sustained, on the other hand, and the de-
mand bids fair to be active both on sea-
sonab}e goods and fall lines, inquiries
for which are made from time to time.
Jobbers report fair business results, but
retailers have had falling off in trade
lately. due to unreasonable weather con-
ditions in various sections of the country.
Staple cottons are quiet in all grades.
Print cloths sold yesterday at Fall
River at 2 7-16, which is as low a point
as ives ever reached in the chief eastern
market. Prints and ginghams show no
change.
COTTON.
New York, Oct. 14.-The cotton mar
ket opened easy at decline of / to
points. Following the first call there was
a further decline to a net loss of to IL
points. The weakness was due to un-
satisfactory cables, expected heavy re-
ceipts at the ports and interior towns,
with fears of glut of cotton following
the raising of the quarantine. The alb
sence of outside speculation and the pro-
crastinating policy of spot buyers contri-
buted to the weakness. Favorable
weather for securing the crop was a
bearish factor. The market partially
recovering to secure profits, prices adj
vanced 2 to points from the lowest level
on this class of buying with the market
finally steady at a net decline of to 8
points. The features Of to-day's trading
was a steady selling by the German
contingent, said to be for continental and
Philadelphia accounts.
