and diversity. We have heard OF
one enthusiast who go. together over
80 types and varieties. The culture is
Of the simplest. Seeds are usually
a package, and may be sown indoors
or in a fine seed bed in the garden
in May. When large enough the plants
should be set in well-enriched soil
about foot apart each way. The
bloom is constant and brilliant as soon
as a little growth is made, and few
plants better repay the very moderate
care needed. The only feature lack

The circular of Scott & Magner says of Hay:
Unfortunately for all concerned the railroad
company has again put an embargo on Hay.
The Southern Pacific Company's agents through
out the State have been notified not TO receive

this embargo will last one has yet been

New York Cotton Market.

NEW YORK. Sept. 1.-THE market opened
lower IN response 10 poor cables which were
said 10 be caused By heavy offerings to Isv-
epool Of cotton from the South. There was
n0hing particularly significant in the week
end statistics The visible supply showed IT'S
drst gain Of the season but It was only mat
ter Of about $1,000 bales. The movement is
beginning to pick up. and the visible sunply
next week should show a gain Of more tlan
100000 bales OF American cotton. The weather
is favorable, and the forecast over SUNDAY ca MS
for generally clear weather. The Giles report
for Monday afternoon is expected to show n
deterioration Of about points, and unless it
shows falling Of equal to this operators doubt
II prices viii hold
The Chronicles weekly summary was not as
bearish as expected, claiming that there was
great deterioration In Alabama. as well as parts
Of Southern Texas. The feeling here seems
10 be growing somewhat less bearfsh. owing TO
the fact that the general trade is showing a dis
position TO overestimate the crop. While the
short interest is somewhat eliminated it is still
quite large.
