New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, June 17.-The spot cotton market remains quiet with only scant of- ferings Sales 800 bales. Quotations un- changed; futures were unexpectedly fa- vorable, reporting an advance of 13 to h points on the near positions, which was said to be due to the operations of the Alexandria clique. The local market did not respond to the advance in Liverpool and the early advance in near months was soon lost. This was due to liquidation and to more favorable news from the country and an improvement in the weather maps which reported warmer weather with only minimum of rain. The long side did not enter the market aggressively, and those who were in- clined to hammer prices were allowed their own way It was claimed by the bull side that when the proper time came there would be reaction and a re- sumption of the advance which was broken by the present fit of liquidation. The trading was unusually light. Com pared with last evenings figures the board at the close showed June even, July up 5, August up B. while the winter months were lower-September point. October 8.

 Steady, 3 Points Lower
 to IF Higher.
NEW ORLEANS END EASY

New York June 17.-The cotton market opened firm at an advance of to 15 points under English cables, which at the time of the local opening were anywhere from to 20 points higher than had been expected. The gains abroad following yesterdays weakness were attributed by some to sealplng operations on the part of the big bull speculators and were quite generally considered as an indication that these interests still retain mastery of the situation. so far as the English market Is concerned, at any rate. Still. after prices here had advanced to points over the opening figures on the near months there was a renewal of the realizing and the selling recently noted. under which prices were gradually forced downward, with the new crop months showing especial weakness and as a result of the better weather. Reports were again circulated that New England was shipping cotton to New Orleans and during the day 1t was said cotton was leaving here for the same destination. Around midday the old crop months. however, rallied slightly under moderate covering, while the new crop months continued to show relative weakness, November selling down to 1O.O3 and January to 9.94 Later the room took profits, and at the close these two positions showed a recovery from the lowest of to points, while July was within 1 point of the best for the season at 12.2S. The general list was finally steady net points lower to II points ligherl The total sales of futures were estimated at 300oo0 bales.
 The weakness here was encouraged by the easier market at New Orleans, lead ing to reports that the bulls there had abandoned their position owing to the re- peated assertions that mills in practically all sections would ship a part of their re- serve supplies to that center for delivery Cn July contracts.

ALFALFA.

Dean henry of the school OF agri-
culture at the University of Wisconsin
strongly urges the farmers of Northern
Wisconsin to raise alfalfa. He consid-
ers it extremely we'll suited to the elm
ate, and soil aud particularly to that of
Villas County. AS a first crop it has no
superior, if an equal.
Following are some suggestions as to
the manner aud time of sowing alfalfa,
as given by The Wisconsin Agriculture
ist.
Alfalfa is best sown as early in the
spring as the SOL can be nicely fitted,
The soil should be made very fine be-
fore sowing the seed. Better results
will follow sowing the seed without a
nurse crop, but good results will obtain
if one bushel of oats is sown to the acre
and cut very early for hay. Weeds will
give some trouble the first season when
sown without nurse crop, but they are
easily clipped of and the rapid clover
growth soon gets ahead Of them; then,
too, the frequent cutting OF alfalfa,
three times during the season, kills out
the weed growth. Twenty pounds OF
seed per acre is ample to give perfect
stand. 1t should be sown broadcast and
covered lightly. There is no reason
why alfalfa will not do we'll in ST. Croix
county, as it is now thrifty in Mari
nette, Marathon and other northern
counties, Alfalfa makes fairly good
pasture, but is most too valuably to use
for such purposes. The protein con-
tent in the hay is so high that it is
economy to hay the different cuttings.
Pasturing has tendency to injure the
crown of the plants somewhat and les
sen the stand and Yield.

Coal For Milwaukee.

Much of the suffering that would
otherwise have resulted from the coal
famine, in Milwaukee, will be averted
by Mayor Roses prompt and successful
action. When Mayor Rose announced
at meeting of the citizens committee
that he could and would get a supply of
coal for Milwaukee, people laughed at
the idea of a man totally inexperienced
In the coal business being able to Sc
cure coal when the large coal dealers
admitted their inability to do so. Never
the less he could and he did and 5000
tons is now on it's way to Milwaukee
from Wales. To avoid the danger of
confscation the coal will be landed at
ST. Thomas; from there the Canadian
Pacific railroad will transport it to the
lines of the Pere Marquette Company,
which will bring if to Milwaukee by
carferry.
Coal dealers, particularly in the east
ern states, have ordered, it is estimated
over 100000 tons of the Welsh coal
but it is expected that the shipment for
Milwaukee will be the first to arrive.
