Clark LIE Fever, of Chicago, Illinois,
travelling land agent for Bane & Bassett
the purchasers of the Fred Harvey KY
ranch in Prowers county, reached Gra-
NADIA last week with some eastern farm
ers who have come to select homes and
purchase some Of the KY lands with a
view of raising beets. Mr.. LIE Fever is
bringing a number OF people from Ohio
and all are well pleased. The richness
OF the land, perfect system OF irrigation
and nearness to markets and good
schools makes the lands especially desir-
able for homes
The machinery for the new creamery
is now on the way to Lamar and will
soon be installed. Mr.. Easter hopes to
be ready to commence the manufacture
of butter by the latter part of April. He
is now making contracts with the farm
ers who wish to furnish milk to the
creamery. There is nothing on the farm
that can be made to pay better than
milk and butter and there Is nothing
that is given less trial in this country.
The new institution il properly patron
lied and encouraged will make money
for its owner and the farmers also.
The city election held yesterday excit-
ed little interest in this place owing to
the fact that there was only one ticket
in the field ard no opposition from any
source. The judges and clerks spent
most OF their salary buying gum and
candy to pass away the time. There
were two parties who took the trouble
to go to the polls and found they were
not registered, while about 600 who
were registered did not even remember
it was election day. The ticket elected
was NJ. Strain for Mayor and w. G..
Gould, c. G. Huddleston, ]. B. Traxler
and L. H. Manville for trustees. The
newly elected officials will be installed
next Monday, most OF them succeeding
themselves. There will be very few
changes in the city government probably
as there will only be two new members.

Mornhv & co,s Cotton Letter.

New York, September 13.-The Chronicle weekly weather summary was of no special importance, while that of Brad street covering all of the leading cotton centers was rather bearish in some re- spects, although there was nothing to show an excess over last year.
 Cables were disappointing since prices were unchanged from yesterday and this led to some selling around the opening The early speculation amounted to llt- tie, although prices eased off 2 to 4 points. a few timid longs letting go on the fail ure of frost to materialize in the south west as forecasted yesterday; moreover the latter forecast was for warmer weather in .he southwest over Sunday, and there was enough in the receipts to prevent new buyers taking hold with con- fidence, although the best class of longs were disposed to hold on for a much higher level. feeling confident that the crop situation warranted a higher level of prices, and that the small supplies at Liverpool and small stock of certhcat- ed cotton at this point should in them selves suffice to maintain present prices and lead to much higher ones. Septem- Der was bought and sold rather freely around the opening, but the market on the whole was a stand-off, bulls being confident and pears fearing to put out a further line of shorts Receipts 2S,OO0 vs. 12.000 last year.

 New York. September 13.-There is not. likely to be any further frost scare on this cold wave. Warmer weather Is pre- dicted over Sunday and following this we may, of course, experience another drop in temperatures. but if the present crop Is not in danger of frost The pecu- liar part of the days market was the strength. January sold down to ss6 and then up to 8.4l before the close. It looks as though there was something under heath the cotton situation besides frost news. The factor may be a moderate crop. We are not at liberty to reveal names, but the head of a large New York trust company has received reports from business men in the south that indi- cate a very moderate cotton crop We be- lieve this information can be relied upon. If it is approximately correct there will be a big advance in price of cotton before another crop. We still advise caution for a few weeks yet, but advise buying on every little reaction and all interested in cotton should watch the situation care fully. If this Is to be a moderate crop prices will soar and the holder of futures will make plenty of money.

WARM WEATHER EXPECTED

New York, September 1S.-The cotton market opened easy. with prices to points lower under disappointing cables, heavy receipts, a forecast for warmer weather In the south and failure of last nights frost predictions to fully material ize. The first wave of liquidation carried January off to S.37 and other options In acc ordanoe. Fort Smith, Ark, alone re- ported light frost, though temperatures throughout the northwestern section of tho belt were dangerously low. The fact that the forecast by the government in dionted fair and warmer weather for to- night and tomorrow created a confident feeling among. the bears and dishesrtened these traders who had gone long last night at the top in anticipation of scare in Liverpool and New York this morn inE on general frost in the western belt.
 Following .he call the market steadied up few points. and during the balance of the session was inclined to resist bear pressure Wall street and the commits sion houses bought the January options, Europe bought March and sold aJnuary. The south and west operated in a small WSy III poen SlueS O1 the account. The Houston estimate for tomorrow receipts proved under the actual receipts for the same day last week and last year. con- trary to general expectation and helped to rally the market The weekly trade re- views were rummed up as favorable to large consumption of cotton goods this fall and winter, and southern spot mar kets held generally steady to firm at un- changed prices.

New Orleans, September 13.-The mar ket for spot cotton was quiet today at fairly steady range of prices. Liqar- pool refused to be influenced further by the advent of cooler weather in the American cotton belt and refrained from moving actively even at yesterdays re- duced level for spots and accordingly buyers on this side were less inclined to take hold freely. Sales, 1250 bales, in- cluding 400 to arrive. Quotations un- changed.
 The future market today was disap- pointing to the bull element. The open ing level of values instead of being high CT showed declines of from to points all along the line, both here and in New York, caused mainly by unfavorable ca bles. There were some sharp f1uctua- tions, but the trend of prices was to a lower level At the noon closing the comparison with yesterdays figures showed net declines of 6 to g points.
