{. (. WOOOCOCK'S NEW
YORK COTTON LETTER
Government Report Set Inc Bears Busy
Market HasH't Rallied.

New York, Oct. 7:-The gov
ernment crop report Of last Tues
day was so bearish and it has up
set the calculations u the trade to
such an extent that the markets
have not yet recovered from the
blow which it estimated condition
of7I,2 per cent delivered TO the
generality of operators. Coming
as it did at time when the market
here was staggering from the fail
ure of much advertised squeeze
or corner" in the October deal by
the pool Of Wall street and south
ern operators, it appears to have
had the effect Ct effectually check
bull speculation to any extent in
the staple for the present and
many operators have taken the
bear side in the expectation of
witnessing further fall in price.
II will not do, however, to get
too bearish, as speculatively,. the
markets are now gradually be-
coming sold out and a heavy short
interest in piling up in the eager
ness of the trading element to push
the price down too rapidly in order
to make turn on the short side
to recover their recent heavy loss
es in bulling the staple with vari-
Gus cliques.
While the position Of the market
seems to be in favor Of the bears,
caution should be exercised in
overselling the market.
The most popular opinion at pre-
sent is that the crop will turn out
over II 900, 900. This is based on
the government recent figures.
The trade is just as likely, how
ever, to make serious mistake
in over-reacliing the market on
these theories as was the case six
weeks ago wien the nine million
crop calculations were in vogue,
pending further information cal
culated to give the trade a more
definite idea on the situation and
outlook Of the crop, as between the
claims of the Southern Cotton
Growers association and the ag-
riculture's reports, it is better to
adhere to a scalpers position and
operate for moderate profits.

Leon Celebration Is Off.

1t was announced couple of weeks
ago that Leon would celebrate the
Fourth this year, and preliminary can
vass was made for the purpose Of rais-
ing the necessary funds and the busi-
ness men soon had the required amount
pledged. At that time it was not known
that several of the smaller towns of the
county were planning to celebrate, and
when this became known meeting was
held and the matter thoroughly discuss
ed, the result being that it has been de-
cided to call the Leon celebration off in
order to give the other towns chance
this year, and Leon will hold the big
celebration next year, and it will then
be in order for the other towns in the
county to lay off. Lamont is planning
for good celebration, and as there is
excellent train service between Leon
and Lamont so that the Leon people can
spend the day there and return home in
the evening, many will go to that town.
It is reported that Van Vert is also try
ing to arrange for special train to
start from Leon in the morning and re-
turn in the evening, and if it is secured
no doubt good share from this city
will go to Van Vert. 1t is to be hoped
that the towns which celebrate this
year will appreciate what Leon has
done in calling off her celebration and
that when opportunity offers they will
reci ciprocate,

promised land. Mrs. Davis father
was a doctor and she was often able to
assist her sick neighbors when doctors
were not as easily got as now, and |
never heard that she was ever accused
OF giving her patients medicine to keep
them sick as long as possible for the
purpose of running up a large bill.
Mrs. Davis has the honor of making
the first cheese in the county, and saws
that people talked about her teaching,
but never her cheese making. / think
the trouble was she did not advertise in
the local papers enough.
And now dear friends we have met
her, where some of us have several
times met before but it is not probable
that we all can meet here again, but we
hope that we may all meet in that bet
ter land where we will never have to
part, and where sorrow and suffering
are unknown.
Mr.. and Mrs. Davis were blessed with
many friends during there early life
here, most of them near their own age,
but few of them are here now.
The dearly loved have passed away,
And yet they still survive, They
still survive
But it may be year-perhaps day,
When like the loved ones gone be-
fore,
They too must pass away.
God grant that in life's parting hour
Their tolls, and duties, done,
They may go gently to their rest,
AS sinks the setting sun.

Weather Crop Bulletin.

For the week ending June II, 1905.
Des Moines, Iowa
The week ending the morning of the
11th was warm, and generally favorable
for cultivation of corn and growth Of all
crops. The showers that fell on the
afternoon and night of the 9th were
very beneficial in three-fourths of the
state, but considerable damage resulted
from extremely heavy downpours in the
Mississippi valley from Clinton to Keo-
kuk, in d large part of the southeast
district, and in scattered localities in
the central and south central counties.
The principal damage to crops resulted
from flooding the lowlands and washing
the cultivated slopes. The general con-
dition of corn outside of the flooded por-
tion of the state is fairly good. Numer-
Gus reports indicate that the small
grain crops are making rank growth on
rich and fiat lands. The clover crop is
also becoming bulky, and haying opera
tions will begin quite early. Potatoes
garden vegetables and small fruits are
doing notably we'll. The apple crop is
still promising fair yield in the north.
ern half of the state, and more than hall
crop in the southern half.

Good farming, such as is practiced by
the most skillful and successful farmers
of Decatur County, is not matter Of
chance or opportunity, but largely a
result of study and special and general
education. The best farmers are con-
stantly in touch with the progress of
agriculture everywhere, and are quick
to adopt all real improvements, and
slow to take up fads. The best way to
know both the good and bad is to read
an ably-edited farm paper like The
Homestead, of Des Moines, Iowa, a
paper conducted by practical farmers,
living on their own farms; with depart
ments devoted to every branch of farm
and home industry; employing the
ablest experiment station workers and
writer's of the West to discuss impor-
tant topics, and presenting each week
all that farmer needs to know of his
calling. The Homestead is a grand
paper for both the reader and the adj
vertiser, because it is SO good paper
and read by SO many farmers of the
best class. THE LEON REPORTER is
always pleased to forward subscriptions
for this excellent farm journal.

Cunningham-S Stanley.

A pretty home wedding occurred last
evening, June Z, 1905, at the home of
Mrs. Millie Standley on east Wood
lawn avenue, when her daughter, Ella
V. Stanley, was united in marriage to
Ben. P. Cunningham. The ceremony
took place aa $3.50 O'clock and was per-
formed by Rev. G. E. Connor in the
presence of the relatives and few
intimate friends. The bride wore a
beautiful gown of white silk organdie
trimmed with chiffon. The happy
couple left the same evening for visit
at the home of his father in Keithsburg,
ILL.,, going from here to Burlington
where they were met by his father,
VIM. Cunningham, and sister, Mrs. Cora
Wallace, and together they made the
rest of the journey by steamer.
The bride was born and reared in
this city and is one Of our most esti
mable young ladies'. She is refined and
cultured and an accomplished musician,
and by her pleasant disposition and
kindly ways has won the high regard of
all who know her.
The groom is nephew of Mrs. Good
rich and for the past seven years has
resided in Charlton. He is proprietor
of the barber shop located under the
Patriot office, and is hustling, ener-
getic young man of good character.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cunningham will return
to Charlton in few weeks and will
make their home with her mother.
They were the recipients of number of
useful and beautiful gifts from admir-
ing friends and relatives.
The Leader congratulates them upon
the auspicous manner in which they
embarked upon the matrimonial sea,
and trusts that this occasion was but
the beginning of the happiness in store
for them.-Chariton Leader.

X. of p. Decoration Day.

The beautiful custom of the Knights
of Pythias having an annual decoration
day in memory of the departed
Knights was fittingly observed in this
city last Sunday. The knights assem-
bled at the hall where appropriate
exercises were held, and then
formed in procession, headed by the
band and marched to the cemetery,
each Knight carrying a bouquet of
flowers, while beautiful floral emblems
were provided for the graves of each
deceased Knight. The Rathbone Sis
ters, the ladies auxiliary of the order
also joined in the ceremonies and deco
rated the graves of the wives of Knights
who are buried in the Leon cemetery. At
the cemetery the beautiful ceremony as
provided in the ritual was CARED out,
after which the graves were literally
covered with flowers. There are thir-
teen Knights buried in the Leon ceme-
terry, and by strange coincidence
there were just the same number of
graves to be decorated by the ladies'.
The following is list of the graves
decorated:

Fredonia, Iowa, June 5, 1905.
Rev. Reeder, the evangelist, has been
holding series of meetings here for
the past five weeks and they have been
grand throughout the whole of the
meetings they have been great sue
cess. We have had sixty-tive CONVEX
sions.
If anybody would have told us six

held here they would have been laughed
at, but this is all true, and only hope
that Brother Reeder through the power
of Jesus Christ will still lead others to
that blessed fountain of life.

sneeze Three Times and Say skee.

By the way, how do you pronounce
that big name, "Rojestvensky?" Ma
poleon Bonaparte used to say that in
pronouncing such names that if you
would sneeze three times and say "skee"
that you would have it about right.
And just now the defeated Russian
admiral is the kind of person to be
'sneezed at anyway.
