New York, March 12.-Further extern
sion of short time amongst the Lanca-
shire spinners due to accumulation of
yarns at unremunerative prices caused
a decline in Liverpool, which was re-
covered at the close on the better adj
vices from here. Our opening was a
shade lower but 1t was seen that there
were many supporting orders on the
basis of S75c for July and local traders
were quick to advise purchases for u
turn in anticipation of light receipts.
This buying caused a quick rally of
ten points at which point the market
became quiet. A further Improvement
in Liverpool is expected tomorrow in

COTTON,

Spot cotton closed steady and un-
changed to-day with sales by factors
of AZ. While the demand was moder-
ate decidedly firmer undertone pre-
vailed, and little inclination was shown
by factors to accept lower prices In
fact, the days developments were bull
ish, and pointed to more active mar
ket the balance of the week In the
f. o. b. market exporters were unwill-
ing to pay asked prices freely, and
business was therefore upon a small
scale. Current quotations for r. c.. NJ

Some Wells.

Editor The Advertiser:
 The world famous Cahaba, Ala.s arte- sian well flows 1900 gallons and better per minute. The artesian well at the pump house at Birmingham flows loO gallons per minute. So q well or lOO gal Ions flow per minute will i'll reservoir holding l5o0Oo gallons in approxmateiy hours.
 Alabama canebrake land absoros water very slowly and retains moisture long: How many gallons to the acre should be used to irrigate a crop on this land is a mere matter of experience and cir cumstance. A half gallon of water VIII cover one irch deep something ike square foot. Land irrigation was the practice of the most successful agriculturists Of all history, the Egyptians of the Pharoahs. Land irrigation under the laws of Con ,Qress applied to arid lands Is largely q Wall street job. Spectators buy arid land and buy water privileges, sell the land with the ditches cut and rent the water Even then only i've to fifteen acres to the l60 acre tract are Irrigated so costly is the water.
 There is no room for comparison be- tween the original cost of irrigatinG canebrake lands by artesian well water and the cost of arid land irrigation. Arid lands irrigated sometimes sell at $500 the acre. Canebrake lands are equal iy productive with these and greatly cheaper.

STATES YEAR CLOSES
INCOME AND EXPENSES ARE
 BEING COMPILED.
Department Reports Go to Printers in Few Days-Will Not Be Ready For Public in Several
 Weeks.

The fiscal year of the State of Alabama closed yesterday. The State. through the Auditor and Treasurer. takes stock. as it were, when its business year ends.
 The income and the expenses of the State are compiled and carefully gone over. The smallest fraction of a dollar spent by Alabama in the past twelve months is put down in the reports and Is added to the total.
 The reports of the Auditor and Treas urer list every avenue through which money comes into the treasury, and they mark down every way in which money passes out of the treasury.
 Auditor Thomas l.. Soweil and Treas urer J. Craig Smith lave already well under way the exhaustive reports of the Sta tes business which are issued each year. Tho appearance of these reports de- perds upon the rapiditJ with which the printers work.
 The fiscal year for the Convict Depart ment ends August 31. The next LegisIa- ture will be asked to have it conform with the fiscal year of the other depart ments.

 St. Louis will. no doubt. produce big show. and should MT. Wallace Bruce, who has just arrived in Scotland as Spe- cial Commissioner for the purpose, sue ceed in getting together a shipload of historic and literary nicknacks and yell low documents, the Scottish department should prove to be one of it's most allur- ing sections. The Commissioner will. of course, take home with him paperbagfuls of dust gathered in the fields of Ban nockburn, Drumelog. Boutwell, Brig, Falkirk and Culloden. Each of these bags should arouse a different set of feeling and tears. It is impossible not to hope that the St. Louis Exhibition will be a stupendous success

The Chattanooga Advertising.

The Chattanooga Medicine Company with laboratories and general offices at Chattanooga, Tenn. and branch houses at St. Louis. Mo, and San Francisco. Cal. has become one of the largest proprie- tary medicine concerns in the world. In the growth of this great business two factors have been dominant: The merit of It's products-Wine of Cardui and Thedfords Black-Draught--has been widely recognized and the original ad- vertising methods adopted have excited great comment. The publicity for these medicines does not consist of the catch phrase end extravagant statement, too often employed in advertising today. but instead the plain story of experience with the medicines given in the plain lan- grage of the people themselves. The fol- lowing letter Is a fair sample of the thousands of Wine of Cardui testimonials published during the past twenty years:
 ao6s Eastern Avenue,
 Cincinnati. Ohio. May 20. 1902.
 consider Wine of Cardui a most ex- cellent woman's remedy. It is certainly a specific as a tonic and regulator. For eight years I suffered with female trouble. I had intense pain in the back and head, leaving me so weak that I was unable to stand at times. Medicine did not seem to help me. but after all remedies had failed me Wine of Cardui proved my one great true friend. What a relief I ex- perienced! It came only . few days af- ter started taking it. I used 1t faith fully for four months and gradually grew stronger and better. I am now regular to the day and for the past two years have enjoyed blessed good health. cer- tainly wish every sick and suffering wo- man could know of your blessed medi- cine, how much pain and suffering 1t would prevent. and what a difference 1t would make in thousands of homes where there Is sickness and sorrow today, if they had Wine of Cardui 1t would bring relief and joy instead.
