see the price ofthe staple do any aerial
stunt cs result of yesterdays freeze
they were up against 1t. Instead of 60
ing up the market went down, as the
result of continued heavy receipts at
the ports. One dealer here expressed
the belief that fully 3,000,0 900 bales new
cotton will be marketed in August, in
which event eight cents for the next
crop will seem high. While there is
yet time farmers would do well to look
to hog and hominy' instead of too
much cotton.

The Money Of China.

The Money Of China
China is In some respects the NEST
democratic country in the world. and
there is no Capitalization, no unity and
no uniformity. Each province. even
each little town, Is a law unto itself
and nses its own language, weights
measures, etc. As regards money, the
confusion is the same, and each prov
ince has dts currency, and the money
of one province has an entirely differ
emit value from that Of another. In
China the tael is a financial unit fer
which there is no coin equivalent.
The word tael is used both as q
measure OF weight and as a measure
Of value.
As weight measure the tael CORE
spends to the American ounce in that
it is one-sixteenth part. of a Chinese
pound or cattle. A cattle, however, is
usually one and one-third pounds.
As tael Of currency the weight
ranges from $40 to 5S3 grains. The
tael of currency is decimally Divided
down to the sixteenth place OF deci-
mails, each with its own name, but usu-
ally only three places Of decimais are
used. and 10 cash equals candarin. 10
candarin equals I mace. 10 mace equals
! taei.
Each province in China, also each
city and many smaller towns, have
different taeI Of value. as the taei IL
supposed to be an ounce (Chinese) OF
silver. but there is no uniformity as to
how many grains constitute this ounce,
and the fneness Of the silver also
varies at each point.
