 Bullish News.

NEW YORK. April 24.-The cotton market opened firm with prices 3Mi0 points higher on active general buying and bulllsh news from all quarters. The shorts were by far the most energetic buyers and throughout the ses- sion led in the demand which continued of generous proportions. The first sale of July was at 9.2s. this being point above the previous high notch for the season. The com motion among the bears was occasioned by an unexpected bulge in Liverpool amounting to ' points on futures and I-i6d on spot cot ton Heavy demand for spot cotton. scare of European shorts and scarcity of sellers were given as the causes for the advance in that market. While there was soma slight re- action in prices after the call to' 9 20 for July. the market exhibited a firm undertope and after the noon hour became very strong. Light estimates for tomorrcw's -eceirts. re- ports that spot markets South were up L. | 6 to is. an advance in futures in New Orleans and disappointing crop news finally put shorts to flight and encouraged bull shorts A prominent local spot cotton house bought large blocks of July and May cotton in the. last hour. when the whole list worked into new record ground for this season.

Keep Up the Feedino.

A force pulling in the direction OF
large and economical milk giving, is
persistent dry milking and persisten,
high feeding. The trouble with most
of us is that, as the cows get farther
along in the period of lactation, we
drop off the feed prematurely. We
follow the false doctrine that we
should measure the supply of nutri-
ents by the yield Of milk. and when
ever the COW drops in yield we punish
her, and, through her. ourselves, by
making corresponding reduction in
the food supply. We forget the drafts
upon the feed other than for the pro-
duction Of milk, and we forget that
these drafts increase as the time for
the birth Of the next calf approaches
Remember, en- the other side, the
danger Of milk fever, and guarding
ourselves against it as best we may
during the last three weeks prior to
the birth Of II e calf. we want to con-
tiIue good ull ration OF roughage
and grain well through the entire
period Of lactation.-Clinton D.
Smith.

Asiatic Butter Trade.

At a convention of dairymen in
Wisconsin Major Alvord Of the Dairy
Division Department of Agriculture
was asked concerning the sale of
American butter in Asia. He replied
that an agent was there, but that
there was no probability of doing any
thing, as the price the foreigners
were willing to pay for butter was
below what Americans would pay for
1t. He was then asked what use
there was of keeping an agent there,
and replied that it was casting bread
on the waters. We fail to see the ad-
vantage of trying to build up for
eign trade under such conditions. OF
course it makes a position for some
man to fill at good salary, but that
is all. In recent report the agent
in question says that the American
butter he finds in Eastern Asia is as
good as the Danish article, with the
exception that the American butter
does not stand up as we'll as does the
Danish butter. Some declare that this
difference is due to the Danes feed
ing large amounts of bran and the
Americans feeding large amounts Of
corn and cornmeal. Butter to sell in
a hot climate must have good body
and be able to stand up.
The Grit-advocate., 1902-12-26
German Butter Trade.

The trade in German butter with
the United Kingdom, the principal
market, has (the British consul re-
ports) had to contend with the sharp
competition Of other butter exporting
countries, particularly Denmark, Rus
sia and Canada, and has decreased OF
late years to considerable extent,
says London Grocer. On the other
hand, the import of foreign butter
into Germany has increased during
the last eight years from $4,000, 900
to 26,000,O00 marks. To a statement
Of the Prussian minister for agricul.
ture that the German butter. particu.
larly the so-called factory butter, is
no longer considered good in the
United Kingdom, the German butter
exporters made the following reply:
The reason for the decreased export
does not lie in the quality of the but
ter, but in the fact that the British
importers will not pay high price
Business is only possible If the Ger
man butter can be supplied a little
cheaper than the Danish butter, and
this is not possible, the average an
nual home prices being higher than
in Denmark.

Scientific Poultry Raising in Canada.
Poultry farming in Canada is a bust
ness that is being developed substan-
TALLY in several market branches,
notably the selling of specially plump
well dressed chickens to Canadian city
merchants and to commission mer-
chants in Great Britain, the selling OF
live chickens to firms who export
them to Great Britain, and the selling
of fresh winter eggs. There are mer-
chants in Montreal who will pay from
10 to lie pound for fatted chickens,
and one of them has offered to buy
100000 lbs. of those especially tat
tened chickens this fall, guaranteeing
to pay not less than 10c per pound for
each chicken. The government OF Can
ada has established a number OF fat-
tening stations, and teaches the farm
er not only what Great Britain's poul-
try markets require but how to make
the chickens to suit the market.-Na-
tional Provisioner.
