occasioned a break of As to GA from the
top, making the net loss 30 to Sc points
on the day The amount brought into
sight during the week was 10000 against
235 900 last year and the total marketed
from September / to date has been S,348 900
against 1888, 900 last year, or decrease
of Al 900 under last year. The 81 leading
interior towns received 10S0OO during the
week against 1923, 600 last year, and the
loss in stock was 1900 against decrease
of $4,000 last year. The aggregate stock
held in these towns is $4,000 against $4,000
last year. The movement on its face
points to a crop of 106S7,0O0, and judging
from the figures furnished by the last
census bureau and the Texas statement
and analysis of the movement issued by
Secretary Hester yesterday, 1t looks as
If the present crop has been underesti-
mated. The fact that there has been lit
tie or no export demand from the interior
for several weeks past will likely cause
decreased receipts for some time to come,
but unless exporters and spinners be-
come free buyers of spots it will require
constant buying of deliveries to maintain
values. Technically, however, the market
is healthier, because the immense specu-
latlve long interest which was a menace,
has been liquidated. The recent heavy de-
cline has brought many enthusiastic OPP
orators that business must be done on a
legitimate basis to sustain prices with
out resorting to manipulatlve tactics, and
1t Is to be hoped that in the future sup
ply and demand will be the controlling
factors. Fears of international complica-
lions in the east and the nominal demand
for spots superinduced the easiness to-
day. The possibility of other nations being
drawn into the eastern imbroglio must al
ways be borne in mind and therefore we
think it best to operate on very conserya-
tive lines pending a settlement of the Rus
sian-JapaneSe war.

New Orleans. February 12.-rhe cotton

plentiful for short time, they being In
the nature of the usual end Of the week
Liquidation Of a normally healthy market.
Offerings were quickly absorbed by the
buying of room traders who believed IN
further advances.
This same class of traders also bought
heavily last night. While the weekly In
sight figures were more than up to the ex-
pectations of conservative traders and
bullish enough for reasonable bulls, they
proved not to be sensational enough for
the scalpers, who Immediately commenced
to unload as soon as the into-sight figures
were posted.
Liquidation was rather heavy for time
and weighed prices down until they were
at the close 30 to 40 points lower than the
close OF yesterday, and 4s to GA points un-
closing was at about the lowest figures.
The bull leaders made little attempt to
sustain the market. although they wers
heavy buyers through brokers at the de-
clines.
There has been a good deal of talk on
the floor of the exchange the past few
days concerning the possibility of scar
city of cotton seed. It is stated that the oil
mills have paid such extravagant prices
for cotton seed that planters have sold all
that they could possibly spare, keeping
only enough on hand for ordinary planting
purposes, and here is where possible
great danger may arise.
The government recommends early
planting in order to avoid the boil weevif,
and If such advice should be followed by
the planter the young plant would be un-
duly susceptible to late frosts. and IL
killed the farmers In many cases would
not have the quantity of seed required for
replanting.

The Location of a Mill.

The location of a mill should always
be carefully considered before the
site is selected, both with reference
to delivery of the ore from the mine
aud to the operations to be per
formed within and about the mill.
One common error is to place the
mill so high that ore must be elevated
to get it above the crusher floor, or
50 low that tailings have to be eIe-
waited TO get them to a point where
they will flow away from the mill. or
the two evils the latter is the least
desirable. Ore can be elevated if
necessary, but it is probably cheaper
to lift it dry and in good sized pieces
than to lift it in the form of sand with
about four or five times its weight of
water in addition. When planning a
mill consideration must be given the
concentration, as well as the crush
ing problem. 1t may be necessary
to put in hydraulic classifiers and
others devices, as well as %cOncentrat-
ing machines, and this requires
abundant fall" Then, too, il may
be desirable to subsequently treat
the tailings by c%yanidation or some
other process, aud this requires
forethought and careful planning.
In some instances it is cheaper to
tram the ore a considerable distance
from the mine to a suitable site than
to handle it several times at a site
near the mine. The method OF trans.
portItion in such an instance must
be determined by surrounding condi-
tons, the amount likely to be moved
daily and the relative cost of each Of
the several methods which may be
employed, as well as the cost of in
s~tallation. There are a number of
methods to choose from-tramming
by men, by animals, by steam, by
electricity and by compressed air,
and sending the ore on an aerial tram
either by gravity or by power. 1t
is usually desirable and less expensive
to crush the ore in rock breakers at
the mine and to send the crushed
rock by whatever means may be EN-
ployed to mill, rather than to put
rock breakers in the mill and distrib.
ute it by tramming. This is partic.
ularly the case with a large mill.

Pioneers in Mining.


The object which men have in view
when locating new mining claims is,
primarily, the making Of money
making it in some indefinite, unfore-
seen way, and in larger amount than
would be possible by the slow process
Of working for a stipulated daily
wage, and saving each day a portion
of their earnings, no matter how
small. The average prospector is
willing to face uncertainty and en-
dure hardship and privation, but the
idea Of building up a fortune by the
practice of self denial and long-con-
tinued patience is almost unknown to
him. He may subsist upon plain and
sometimes scant food, but his out
door life and hard work make him
strong and healthy and self reliant,
and he lives in the future. He goes
out on his search for a fortune with a
light heart, and with optimistic faith
in his own ability to win it from the
rocks. This is written of the real
prospector-he who actively engages
in the business and work of looking
for new veins and deposits of ore, but
does not apply to so great an extent
to another class who might, perhaps,
better be styled 'locators'-a class
Of men who rush precipitately into a
newly discovered district and locate
everything in sight, taking advant-
age Of the result of the pioneer work
Of the p%rospector who made the first
discovery. The aim Of the first is to
find a new deposit Of mineral, develop
and work, or sell it, and thereby Sc
cure the long-hoped. for competency.
The aim Of the other is to secure all
the ground he can which he hopes he
may be able to sell to his own advant-
age to some one who desires to emu
late in a measu the real prospector
by mining in search of pay rock.
The prospeetor Of the FIRST class is
necessary to the development and ex-
tension Of the mining industry. He
OF the second class is inevitable. He,
too, is useful, but not to so great an
extent as the pioneer p~rospector,
who has nothing but his knowledge,
gained Of experience, to guide him.
The second fellow has the way paved
for him, and although entitled to less
than the former, he often gets as
much or more, He is in evidence in
every attractive aud rich camp, and
doubtless he win be as enduring as
the other, for to a great extent the
mining laws give him the same priyi
leges and opportunities as his
brother, the pioneer, and seeing this
he often takes more.

HUDsON's 22-ANIMAL TEAM
Something About the Famous
TOnOpah Freighting Outfit.

Everyone in ToEopnh and Goldfeld
knows the famous % animal team
which has become more or less famil-
lar to others outside these camps
who have seen numerous pictures of
it in many journals and magazines.
For over two years this great outfit,
which is owned by Harry Hudson of
Tonopah, has been freighting into
that camp principally engaged in
hauling lumber in, and ore out to the
railroad, and times without number
the mastery manner ia which it is
steered round the corner of Main and
Brougher avenue has evoked APP
plause from the bystanders, for it is
no easy task to guide % animals
with a single line, hauling three i'm
mense wagons heavily loaded and a
trailer, The team comprises two
horses as wheelers and % mules
which together cost nearly So, 600,
the wagons have six and eight inch
tires and the biggest wheels are six
feet in diameter, aud these with har-
ness, etc, bring up the total sum
invested in the outfit to nearly So, 900.
Each animal costs about 81 per day
for feed and water and the load of
the entire team is averaged to about
n ton to the animal.
On the opening of the Tonopah
railroad it was put on the Goldfeld
road, the round trip between Tonopah
and Goldfeld is about sixty miles, oc-
cupying four days; and it has hauled
many tons Of richore from that camp,
one load alone being worth over ST.
900 per ton, Although this team has
been in hard work over the rough
desert roads for over two years only
one horse has been lost and the other
animals have never been sick.
