allowed too much weight to the late sea
son and the smallness of the plant, none
the less it is now feared that the gov
eminent report may be based on the
same distorted view of correspondence
We say distorted because there is abso-
lutey nothing in the present condition of
the cotton crop as reported by the most
reliable authorities that could compare
with the condition of month ago. AS
we have said all along there is nothing
in the present condition to arouse any
enthusiasm The condition IS not good.
But when correspondents say there is
no betterment after these weeks of fairly
favorable conditions. the conservative ele-
ment will be asked to differ. 1t is en-
tirely upon the outlook of the new crop
that operations in the market must be
based. If the crop is not doing well and
is no better than it was a month ago,
there are many reasons for buying. But
we cannot help feeling that no great adj
vantage is to be derived from the pur-
chase of cotton at the moment. New
crop options seem to sag between "a
and 10 cents. On break below that
figure purchases seem to involve little
risk and return good profits. Prices, or
rather quotations on July, August and
September are marked up and down at
the pleasure of the bull pool. These
options correspond to a stacked pack of
cards They are to be avoided.
Cotton futures today ranged as follows:

New York, July Liverpool made but
a poor response to the Improvement here
yesterday in so far as the near positions
are concerned but the winter options ad-
vanced sharply in the English market.
There was some short covering here in
the forenoon but when the December con-
tracts advanced to over 10 cents there
was rush from Wall street to take ad-
vantage of the opportunity 70 sell the
market and one prominent brokerage
house alone sold $4,000 bales of the new
crop, particularly December which they
sold down from 1902 to 994.
The weather at the South is about
all that could be expected and crop re-
ports are daily improved. The New Or
leans bull party seem to have the near
months well in hand. but they are not
operating in the new crops and with a
continuance of good weather and with
sentiment very bearish we doubt if the
present level of values for October and
more distant positions can be maintained

New Orleans, La, July 1.-Spot cotton
remains quiet but firm. Quotations un
changed.
The future market opened with the bull
ieh sentiment much in evidence. Liverpool
made fairly wide advances in both spots
and futures and the weather forecast con
tanned enough rain and cool weather to
be considered decidedly bullish. Added to
these two factors was the coming bureau
report for June Today was receiving
day and contrary to reports spread by
the bears that the long bull clique was
unable to finance its July deal. arrange
ments were made to pay the money for
the $1,000 bales rendered on notice day.
Early IN the morning it was estimated
that about 5000 bales had been received
by the local longs. This ready receiving
of the cotton rendered also had the effect
of strengthening the market. The open
ing prices were five points uD on July,
August 3. September and 2 points on
the other new crop positions. Later in the
day. the winter months gained to Z
points additional but eased off before the
close, the list showing net gains of z
points on September and each on the
other winter months, while the summer
positions were at about last evenings
figures.

NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, July 1.-The cotton market
opened steady at gain of / to IL points
and selling up to level about 10 to Is
points over the close of the preceding day
under covering based on expectations of
very bullish government report next
Friday, further support by the New Or
leans bull contingent and cables which.
while Indifferent as to the near months,
showed firmness in the new crop, and a
strong spot market Receipts were also
small and at the opening very little cot
ton was Offering. On the early advance
the late positions came in for consider
able support Notwithstanding the favor
able weather, but when August had
reached 1896, July 1890, September II 81
and December 1905, the list turned easier
under room realizing. At the first sign
OF weakness big selling order came in
apparently from Wall Street, which car
RED values off rapidly. In some quarters
it was said that this selling was in reality
for the bull pool and on the downward
turn selling became more or less general
with the market probably the most active
of the session. This forged prices of
from II to % points from the best OF
the mOrRing on the active months while
July sold down to 1885, loss Of points
Later the market was steadiad again by a
renewal of bull support but during the
balance of the session ruled more or less
irregular and less active. The close was
barely steady, net points higher to 4
points lower. Sales were estimated 300.-
600 bales
Private crop advices received today were
more favorable and climatic conditions
were nearly perfect but sentiment con-

 Fertilization Is simply the subsutu- ton of inorganic for organic matter atom by atom. This process of trans formation Is unthlnkably slow. As a molecule of wood or bone decays moiecule of stone takes It's place. This ean only occur when the air, earth or water surrounding the organic sub stance in question holds in solution some mineral which is readily precip- itated. Tn the case of either wood or bone while decomposition is going on there yet remains framework or fiber. the interstieos of which may gradually be filled by the mineral sub stance. With hesh. be it human or ani- nal DO such framework exists. The very rapid decay of flesh also makes lt impossible for the very slow process of petrifaction to have any effect in the way of making Q transformation.

A few years ago the United
States Fish Commissioners were
breeding carp and distributing
the spawn all over the country,
and now the one effort every.
where is to exterminate the carp.
A few months ago a lake in New
Jersey was drawn off to get rid
of the carp summarily. Now the
Park Commission is likely to ac-
cept an offer TO get rid of the
carp in the Schuylkill. The carp
were introduced as a cheap food
but cheap food is not what the
American people are after. They
want something more palata bic
and wholesome.
