Cotton Seed Quotations.

Why are there no standard quota

grain and other staple market oommo.
dities?
This question is often asked by far
mers. The matter has been subject
OF frequent complaint, but the press
is helpless. The quotation committee
Of the Merchants Exchange, whose
quotations are the only ones svail-
able, declines to quote cotton seed in
figures. For the papers themselves
to attempt to get the quotations d.
rect from the mills is out of question,
es there is disposition to keep suoh
Information to themselves, or, at least,
out Of the newspapers, for obvious
reasons.
The mill people contend that there
is such variance in ideas as to the
market that it was long since decided
impraoticable, indeed almost impos.
sible, to make satisfactory quotations.
The present method Of quotation has
been decided upon after lcng discus.
sion among the people who buy the
seed.
Unlike other commodities, the price

ton seed are not staple like those oi
cotton or grain. Another factor in
the unsettled and highly localized
prices Of seed is the fights made by
mills for seed. These fights frequent.
~ boost prices to unsafe high marks
and often run the mills making them
into bankruptcy. Therefore prices
paid for seed, that will ruin the mill
which brushes them, arc not legiti.
mate prices. Tho reason papers dc
not publish cotton seed prices is mani.
fest. There is simply no fixed and
regular market for cotton seed.

TORPEDO BOATS WON'T
GO TO ASIA SEA

Norfolk, Va, July Silt begins to
look as if nothing would be done by
the navy department toward sending
the torpedo boats stationed here at
present to the Asiatic station. 1t was
originally planned that these boats,
some six in number should leave here
early in April, and everything was in
readiness for the long voyage; that is,
everything but the personnel for the
boats. 1t has been found next to i'm
possible to obtain the officers and men
for the protracted tour OF duty, which
Is necessary in order TO train them
for the long voyage, much Of which
must be under tow. Now comes the
suggestion from the Asiatic station
that it might be just as we'll to keep
the torpedo boats at nome, since they
really not urgently required in far
Eastern waters, where their presence
with the feet would somewhat retard
the cruising program. and where they
would nave 10 lie in ordinary at Ca
vite much as they now remain at this
port. 1t is possible, therefore. in view
of these difficulties, that the torpedo
boats will stay in home waters, al
though it is a part Of the strategic
program that there shall be at the
Asiatic station in readiness for need
of them, a flotilla of torpedo boats.

AN EARLY MORNING
WATERY EPISODE

Apparently with no aggravation
whatever, a pesky water pipe, one of
the kind that gets better as it gets
older, popped open at the corner of
Railroad avenue and Second street, at
1880 o'clock this morning, and all that
was lacking to make it a veritable
electric fountain was the electricity.
The water spurted high into the air
and came down in splashes that re-
freshed and reminded one of
the beautiful Molly Mechunkamunk.
Then Herman Blueher, the water ex'
pert, came along with his wagon load
ed with vegetables. Mr.. Blueher
knows all about water and springs,
but he didn't know the treachery that
lurked where the water out of that
bursted pipe came from. So he drove
into it. and down his wagon went to
the wheel hubs. 1t took six men to
help Mr.. Blueher's horses get the
wagon on dry land again, and it took
corps of laborers and plumbers sew
eral hours to close the break in the
Kalamein pipe.

So completely has the railroad COM

gone even further than this, and all
signs of the company have been re-

Sunset line transportation is sold
have no Southern Pacific signs, and a
careful search of the railroad quarters

ton to the barbettes has been put in

armament will be in place within a
few days and that the vessel will be
ready for her steam trials in Septem-
Der. If this program is carried out
the battleship will be undergoing her
trials in less than one year since the
first keel plates were laid. The au-
thOrities at Portsmouth have carried
out the orders of the admiralty and
have absolutely refused to permit any
one, naval officers or civilians, to go
on board the ship without special per-
init.
The remarkable result obtained by
the British government is the building
of this battleship, the largest afloat,
in such short space of time speaks
well for government construction. The
