WHERE COTTON GROWS.
Yield to The Acre is Larger in North
 Than tn Southern States.

Years ago it was thought that cot. ton could not be produced anywhere except in the extreme southern States and it was then claimed that it took thirteen months to produce a crop. During the years that have ensued experiments have shown that a crop can be made in 150 days, and that 1t can be grown in States consider. ably farther north. Peculiar to say. the farther north cotton is grown the larger appears to be the yield per acre. A recent bulletin of the Unit. ed States Department of Agriculture gives the following ten-year average yield ner acre.

Of improving the market

The Financier will say:
The chief feature of the statement OF
Hr~ thA a0k
ending October 80 was a reduction Of
81, S57 800 in cash holdings. this the re-
suit of heavy transactions with the Treas
ury and moderate shipments TO other
centers. Interest has been conferred large
IL In the showing OF the loan column
some rather unusual changes having been
anticipated. but as a matter of fact there
was noted only small increase OF
$l.77s.2O In that item.
The decrease in cash was reflected In a
contraction of S5. 400, 800 in deposits. and
while this lessened reserve requirements
by something over one-Quarter OF q NIL
ZION dollars, the result of the changes
boted was to decrease the reserve on all
down to Sl1,O99GOO.
The above figures are based on actual
conditions reported Saturday, but the
statement OF daily averages showed de-
crease in reserve OF $2,734 ODO. making the
surplus $l3.9O9. SD
The summary of state banks and trust
companies in Greater New York not re-
porting to the New York clearing house
showed for the week q decrease In loans
OF Si,s+o.7OO. decrease of $1.5OO.OOO In
cash and a decrease of approximately
$7.O00.ODo In net deposits. In view OF the
fact that November I will witness some
rather heavy dividend and interest pay
ments. the coming weeks bank state
ment probably will. show rather heavy
changes. There seems to be no indica-
tion OF further transfers Of loan accounts
from Tendon to New York-at least, the
bank statement does not reveal them.

On the New York Curb Friday
and yesterday ELY CENTRAL
sold at price average Of 1T
tie better than $3.50 per share.
with a volume of business total
ing 1900 shares. as officially re-
corded. The big copper boom
which we prophesied as long
ago as August has at last ad-
vented. All coppers on the New
York Curb are up and promise
to go higher. In spite OF the
fame of many of the other is
sues. ELY CENTRAL continues
the leader OF the copper list on
the Curb. and 1t Is moving with
steady strides toward much
higher prices.
In our previous advertise
ments addressed to you with
regard to ELY CENTRAL We
have explained the mine reasons
for this stocks remarkable APP
probation, amounting to nearly
200 per cent since the first OF Sep
TENDER.
These reasons have had to do
with it's location, bisecting the
estate Of NEVADA CONSOLE
DATED. the new $4,000 900
giant among copper companies.
which is returning 100000 an
nually In profits to its stock
holders.
These reasons have had to do.
too, with the sensational de-
velopments on the ELY CEN
TRIAL estate. BY these develop
ments the property has been
brought in two months time to
occupy rank as a shipper. and 1t
is now being as aggresstvely Op-
Grated as any other property in
the Ely district.
Buyers Of mining stocks Of
long experience and OF exceed
ingly good fortune have studied
ELY CENTRAL carefully. They
have found 1t good. They deem
It as vast in its potentialities az
was NEVADA CONSOLIDATED
when the development OF that
estate was no further advanced
than Is that of ELY CENTRAL.
They believe that with full de-
velopment ELY CENTRAL will
be a producing property Of equal
magnitude with NEVADA CON-
SOLIDATED. the capitalization
of which is now valued In
the open market at around
$5O.OOO,OOO. They believe. fur
thermore. that with such develop
ment ELY CENTRAL stock
in the markets will duplicate
the performances Of NEVADA
CONSOLIDATED stock. which in
five years time has appreciated
1900 per cent In value. These
are the cogent mine reasons for
ELY CENTRAL'S advance. They
have been searched out and
infinitely weighed by the most
talented copper share investors
in America, and these investors
are today the heaviest buyers
In the market Of ELY CEN
TRIAL. They are buying ELY
CENTRAL for such profits as
they made out OF CALUMET &

But the comparison does not end

OF these 100000 shares In tbs

say that 100000 shares are not
available Cor market trading pur-
poses. This statement IL made pos
sibie by the fact that during the
past few weeks there has been a
tremendous withdrawal Of stock
from tho market by pure invest
ment buying. Buying OF this char
acter has been by those who appre-
eiste and mean to avail themselves
Of the rights which will accrue to
stockholders with the issuance OF
scot. 900 In six-per-cent ten-year
convertible bonds.
This bond issue will be made In
tho course Of the next few weeks.
The entire issue has been under
