New Orleans, August 26.-Spot cotton was slightly steadier today with prices 1-l6c down on all grades. Mddling, 912c. Sales were 107 bales on the spot and 1o0 to arrive.
 The market for cotton futures opened steady at an advance of to points on all months with the exception of Sep tember, which was up points, and dur ing the forenoon displayed decided up- ward tendency, standing at midday to Il points above the initial range. The improvement was due in great part to renewed activity among the New York bulls, but the desire of not a few shorts to cover in recently accruing profits add ed not little to the temporary strength of the market.
 During the afternoon there was not a great deal of trading and fluctuations were narrow. There was no disposition on the part of the local contingent to force prices in either direction. The close was steady, with prices 10 to 16 points higher, compared with the previous closing.

Rain Welcome

While the farmers Of this vicinity have
not been suffering for lack of rain az
the states in the east have been doins,
more particularly in New England, where
the country has had no rain for over a
month and everything is parched and
dry, streams are without water, shutting
down many factories, and everywhere
are great forest fires, sending a dense
pail of smoke and ashes E the whole
country. the rain Of Thursday night and
Friday was very welcome. Quite a little
water has fallen in the two days. which
win be especially beneficial for fall
blowing. The rain has interfered with
hauling Of grain here for shipment. The
storm has been a very cold one, with a
sharp bleak, wind from the north and
It is quite probable that it will clear off
cold with danger of another frost. How
ever, the fall work has progressed too
far now for a frost to do any serious
damage.

TO Extend Time.

The time for making bids for the 0 n
struction of Dickinson's new CarneRie
library is up today. but owing to ex-
listing conditions, the members of the
library committee will hold a meeting
this Saturday evening when the time
will be extended, probably about ten
days. There are only three copies of the
plans and specifications to be used by all
the bidders. and the committee feels
that the time has o been sufficiently
long enough to let all who may want to
make a bid. have the use of one Of the
copies of the plans. In Dickinson alone
there are four firms who expect to enter
the competition.

Cure For caksd uddsr.
When a milk cow has caked uddel
It very often arises from lying upon
something hard-cornstalks or q cob
and may cause trouble and annoyance
to the dairyman. A cure, easy, sim.
pie and effective, is to take Of poke
root, freshly dug and chopped, one
pint, boiling It In one quart Of water
until It Is q well done mulch. Apply
as hot as possible thoroughly all over
the swollen part after milking, as that
Is the surest and best time, when there
Is no haste.
TO Prevent Lamb Collie.
After losing lambs for a number of
years from collie, says a breeder, and
not being able to find any cause by
CdlSluA CA0AA4oI4OA VI ln0 CuIId1lS ]
concluded the trouble was caused by
the lamb getting too much milk, as Il
is always the largest and latest that
die. So I remove the flock at once to
the poorest pasturage possible, and the
trouble ceases at once. I also find by
experience that If the flock is kept on
the newly sown fields the lambs are
not SO apt to be affected.
Removal Of Warts.
One ounce of acetate of lead dis
solved in q quart Of water and this ap-
piled to the growth will remove warts

who was Familiarity known as the

which preceded it. There have been

Popular in Washington.

From Carlsbad Argus
Rev. E. Mcqueen Gray, Of Carlsbad,
who has just returned to Albuquerque
from a very successful trip to Wash
|ington in the interest of the National
Irrigation congress, proved a very
popular pulpit orator while in the
national capital. On h first two
Sundays while he was in Washing
ton the New Mexico divine filed the
pulpit at morning services in St
Thomas Episcopal church and at
evening services in the church of the
Good Shepherd. On the third Sunday
he preached again in the Good Shep-
herd church and in St. Paul's and St
Johns churches. He also addressed a
number of other religious gatherings,
and was forced to refuse a number
of similar invitations.
While in Washington, Mr.. Gray al
so had the pleasure of attending the
banquet given by the University club
in honor OF William H Taft.
The Roswell daily record. [volume] (Roswell, N.M.) 1903-current, 1908-03-23

The shooting of a Mexican this
week in one of Carlsbad's saloons,
besides causing the death of one
man and great misery and perhaps
a ~penitentiary sentence for the kill
er, will be a great expense to the tax
payers of the whole county, to say
nothing of the disgrace to our city.
Such occurrences, while rare in re-
cent years, demonstrate the fact that
our city and county would be a great
deal better Off without saloons, as
the revenue (the only grounds for
their e~xistence) derived therefrom
is not near SO great as the court ex-
pense arising from crimes committed
in and directly attributable to them
1t would be money in the pockets of
the people if saloons were done away
with; and certainly, from a moral
standpoint, the community would
profit thereby.-Carlsbad Argus.
