MARKET AGAIN DULL
HAS RELAPsED INTo<A PERIOD OF
 INACTIVITY.
Very Little Cotton is offered and None is SoId--Many warehowses
 Have Sold Out of
 Fleecy Staple.


 Low middling :. ............1oc
 The local spot cotton market has again relapsed into period or mac tfvity, which no doubt will continue, except for occasional breaks. all du- ring the summer months, as the stock of the fieecy staple is very low in Montgomery, some of the warehouses being almost completely sold out. There was very little offered yesterday and no sales at all, and as one man put 1t, the market is left to itself
 Upon lower cables the market open ed yesterday morning about points lower, but rallied on good commission house buying and speculation, ad- vancing all day until July futures reached 10.7s, closing 5 points higher than Tuesdays close. Liverpool has shown a reactionary disposition ever since the beginning of the week but was some better yesterday.
 The weather map was generally clear at most points In the belt yes- terday with traces of rain recorded in Texas and showers in East Tennessee. It is very hot everywhere with the ex- raln formation Is said to be shifting toward the north west. Indications are for partly cloudy weather.
 Except for the cables the general cotton news yesterday was rather bull- ish and with no weakness shown any, where 1t looks as though Europe will be disappointed In waiting for break In spots.

The distribution of atmospheric pressure has not changed appreciably since yesterday It continues high along the entire northern border, extending southward along the Ap- palachtan region far as north Florida. The center of low pressure is still over New Mexico. It has manifested very little ener- gy, but 1t controls the wind circulation over nearly all the country east of the Rockies, and is causing quite general rains over the upper Missouri and upper Mississippi valleys. the amounts being heavy at a few places .- Local showers occurred in most districts of the cotton belt but the amounts were gem eraly light.

June s.-(Special, )-Though the local market for spirits of turpentine at one time during the week sagged and eased off to S7&c, good consistent buying support given by the exporting element at critical periods caused the article to stiffen again and for the week bare loss of Nc per gallon sustained.
 The market opened on Wednesday (June 2) firm at SShc The close yesterday was firm at 3SKc and at that time the market pretty well cleaned of all available offerings A large amount of holdings was taken Monday afternoon by James Farie, Jr., exporter at private terms' but the trade got wind of the fact that he had paid an advance for his purchases and the market Tuesday morning opened firm at the ad- vance with American and other large inter ests active as buyers.
 Reports from London show that while stocks there are somewhat depleted just at this time a bear series of raids has depress- ed the market for American turpentine. The snap was altogether lacking in the past seven days at London and with large ship ments afloat 1t Is probemattcal as to what trend the English market will take within the next few days.

In a grand rally in the ninth in

Saturdays game with RockIand

third and this seemed enough to carry
them through to victory, as the home
teams scattered hits and few cXpen-

zero That one run looked big to
the Woodstock boys. Co.. Saunders,
Rockland's heavyweight pitcher,
wasn't featured as a striker-out, but
he had the locals hoodooed for a

base runners were allowed to return
to the bench across lots.

ROOFING ROOFING

WHEN buying any article a man naturally
wants to get the best possible value for his
money.
If he's buying roofing, he wants the best roof
ing value offered
But how to get it is the question that nalur-
ally arises.
Difficult? No, it's easy. Just as easy as the
prOverbial rolling off log.
FIRST-Beware of the sO-caIled cheap"
roOfngs. A IOw-priced roofing always means
IOw-grade roofing which will prove many times
more costly to you in the end than if you paid
a reasonable price for your roofing material.
SECOND Don't buy roofing with a reputa-
ton to be made. Buy one that has already
made reputation and proved by years of test
that it's good material
THIRD-Weigh we'll what the roofing man tells
YOU Remember he's out to SELL
