BRIDGES OF THE COUNTY.
Steel Structures Favored by Board of
 Revenue.


 Revenue.
 The board of Revenue of Montgomery County at its regular weekly meeting yesterday discussed at length. plans and methods for erecting steel and cement bridges henceforth instead Of the temporary wooden structures now being used on the Montgomery roads. The members of the Board discussed the expenditure of money in this work and were of the opinion that perma- nent steel bridges would be cheaper than those of wood. Many of the Montgomery bridges are in need of re- pair and the Board will in the future use cement and steel in almost every case.
 President M. B. Houghton of the Board of Revenue made an effort to have the offices of the court house re- painted but the other members of the Board opposed 1t and nothing was done.
 A petition from citizens of the East end of the county to open the old Pike Road from Pike Road to Davis's store was received and filed.
 A mass of routine business was transacted and the Board heard the re- port of weekly disbursements com piled by g. T. Westcott, clerk of the Board as follows:

THE SEA ISLAND GROWERS.

Apropos the subject nearest
the hearts of a majority of our
poodle ofMadison county today,
the subject of Sea Island cotton
and the price thereof, the fol.
lowing from the yaldosta Times
o. last Saturday may prove in
teresting:
The convention which the Sea
l ,land Cotton Growers are going
to hold in this city on the 23rd
of this month promises to be
more largely attended than any
similar meeting that has ever
been held. All over Florida and
throughout this section of Geor
gia the sea island cotton grow
ers recognize the fact that some
thing must be done to preserve
their industry and make it pro
fitable to them. That this con-
ventiun will discuss the matter
thoroughly and bring out some
important suggestions goes with
out saying.
Most of the sea island plant
ers, as we'll as the buyers who
keep posted on conditions recog-
nize the fact that movement
to force prices up by remaining
out of the market while it may
work some slight temporary
benefit, is not exactly what the
industry needs. The work of
the convention should 60 and it
doubtless will go. much deeper
than that. The quality of the
sea island staple has very much
to do with the price and it is
more important now that the
quality be kept higher than ever
before.
There will always be good
demand for the nigh grades Of
sea island cotton and at good
prices. But the low grades are
too common now to command
any sort of price at all. Egyp-
tain cotton used to be the main
C ,mpetitor of the low grades of
S island but is no longer so. In
recent years there has been de-
veloped a staple OF upland cot
ton, which is being grown ex-
tensively. and which is TAX.
ing the place of sea island in
many of the mills. THIS would
not be SO if care were taken to
improve the quality Of the sea
island staple.
The convention of long staple
cotton growers may accomplish
much on several lines, but ii it
does no more than cause the
planters todetermine to improve
their staple by importing new
seed and by other means, it will
be of vast benefit. not only to
the growers themselves, but the
large section of country which
is affected by what contributes
to their welfare.

doiiverv was off 4tc . Corn is mn ~ oats
are down &c. Provisions are practically
unchanged
during the last half Of the day. Early In
the session the market was quite firm on
fair demand from commission houses. At
the opening SeptemberN was Ac higher to
Sc lower az s5aS5Sc. With only light Of
ferings the price gradually advanced TO
SGisc. Numerous reports from the north
west telling of the condition OF the spring
sown crop were received, but these advices
were very conflicting one Of the reports,
however, attracted special attention and
was the chief cause of heavy liquidation
late In the session. This report was from
a Chicago expert, who IL Inspecting the
wheat fields of North Dakota. Scarcely
a trace Of black rust and but a moderate
amount OF leaf rust" was the substance Of
dispatch from this authority. Reports OF
continued heavy primary receipts helped
TO dlslodge large quantities Of long wheat.
Total arrivals for the week were over 1000
600 bushels, compared with 100000 bushels
the corresponding week last year. The
market became extremely weak during the
last hour, September declining to S4ssc. The
close was practically at the lowest point of
the day, final quotations on September
being at slifc. Ciearances Of wheat and
Hour were equal to 1850 bushels. Primary
receipts were 100000 bushels, compared
with 6HlOo bushels a year ago. Mime
apolis, Duluth and Chicago reported re-
ceipts of 500 cars, against IA cars last week
and 292 cars year ago.
Corn, Notwithstanding the b, eak In wheat
prices, held remarkably steady. Prominent
bulls were active purchasers Of corn during
the greater part OF the session. Pit traders
also were inclined to favor the bull side;

up to 52Ac and closed at 529sC. Local re-
| ceipts were 2SS cars, with lO5 Of contract

A depressing effect on the oats market re-
! suited from the weakness of wheat In

| tional bearish factor. Furthermore, the
| grading showed some Improvement. The

NEW YORK. July 29.-Yesterday's re-
vtvai Of speculative animation on the Stock
exchange was fully maintained. although
there was good volume of business and
some striking gains were recorded. The
market showed the effect to some extent
of the desire to take profits on the week g
gains and the principal active stocks were
not inclined to advance with vigor. The
news Of the day was not important and
The net result of the weeks operations
on the surplus reserves OF the banks was
small, but this was due to the offsetting
effect of some large changes in individual
items
The $3.50, 100 expansion in loans was
attributed largely to the taking over Of
loans by the banks from the trust com
panies, an operation that always develops
when the call loan rate offers no greater
trust companies on their deposits. 1t is
surmised, also that the stirring of specu-
latlve interest In the stock market has
resulted In some Increase of borrowing for
that account The gain in cash Of 1922, :
200 was much larger than expected and
operated to conserve the margin Of the
surplus Weekly reports Of the mercan-
tile agencies helped to foster the cheerful
feeling over the business outlook which
OF the day was the new record price for
Delaware, Lackawanna & Western at 40,
accompanied by rumors of another Intended
extra dividend on that stock. The irregu-
lar tone Of the market continued up to the
closing.
Bonds were steady. Total sales, par

slight decrease as compared with last week
and were much heavier than the same week
last year. when the packing house troubles
made receipts very uncertain. The quality
of the offerings was very good.
The market for the week closed In good
shape, the demand the latter part of the
on the opening and earlier days OF the
week conditions were rather untaVorable

the receipts consisted largely of corn-fed
cattle and grass stun was scarce, For
this reason the market on range cattle was
q little stronger than the close of last

advance than this and the market for the

at steady prices. Veal calves and stays
showed little change and were just about

The supply of stockers and feeders was
fairly good and there was a good demand
all the week. Good heavy feeders were
106l20c higher for the week. with the light
and common grades ruling about steady.
HoGs-There was only light run here,
about eighty-eight loads being on sale.
With such light receipts buyers started in
early and, although prices ruled lower,
there was considerable activity to the
trade and clearance was made in good
season. Buyers paid little attention to
weights or quality today and punched the
sales. Early advices from eastern points
were dlscouraging and had bear effect on

some hogs bringing S52k and tops reaching
