MOVEMENT
BY FARMERS FIGURED
for Forward shipment Very Dis
appointfng-Market Closed 6 to Is Points
Net Decline-SpOts Closed 5 Points Low
er-Eutures Steady-Receipts and Quo
tatiOns.
(By the Associated Press.)

New York, Sept. 16.-In absence of
aggressive support by the bull interest
and with Southern selling. rather a promi-
nent feature the cotton market showed a
lower tendency today and closed steady
at 6 to L. points net decline. The mar
ket opened steady at a decline of ) to E
points on account of foreign weakness in
the Liverpool market, where considerable
uncertainty seemed to be Ielt over the la
Dor and political situation.
This furnished a basis for room pres
sure in the local market which was later
increased by the weight OF Southern Of
ferings which continued as a feature
throughout the entire forenoon.
The fact that into-sight figures for next
against 100000 last week, while port re-
ceiptS for next week were m at
$4,000 bales, tended to encourage more
extensive operations by the local bear con
though some reports from the South
claimed that the holding movement had
assumed proportions heretofore unprece-
denied the freedom with which cotton
nevertheless seemed to be coming out in
that quarter made a considerable impress
sion upon sentiment here.
The fine weather which has prevailed for
some time past usually has done much to
increase the movement, while the heavier
Southern selling today was taken as a
confirmation of the report that the de-
mand for forward shipment is very dis
appointing.
Receipts at ports today $4,000 bales,
against $3.50 last week and 1915 last
year. For the week 100000 bales, against
231 ,259 last week, and 243, against 253
last year. Today's receipts at New Or
leans 2,091 bales, against 1,145 last year.
and at Houston 1852 bales, against 1887
last year.
Spot cotton closed quiet, 5 points lower;

The corn fires because OF the lack
OF the MISUNDERSTANDING organic de
cay or humuS. If the corn was plant
ed on a crimson clover sod, il would
not fire, and the clover would i'm
prove the land faster than letting it
rest in brOOmsedge. Land does not
get tired, it gets starved, and the best
way to rest 1t Is to keep il hard at
work growing crops that Will feed il
etWeen the sale crops. Try the Iron
pea, as it is said to resist the Wilt
disease. But by all means have a good
rotation and always have crimson
clover to turn under for corn and
cotton. Grow plenty of forage, and
get organic decay into your soil
through peas INC clover and the ma
nure made from feeding the farm
roughage, and then plant the corn
in fOur-foOt rows and not more than
two feet apart, and leave all turning
plOWS and sweeps out of the field after
the corn is planted, and save three
fourths Of the labor you are putting
on the corn by using implements lat
go over the land rapidly. Your corn
costs too much with the amount OF
labor you use needleSSly. The
smoothing harrow, the weeder and
the two-horse c~ultivator will enable
you to keep the grass out and make
more corn with far less work.

Around the middle Of the morning sell
ers of yesterday were heavy buyers and
this put the market 3M4 points up from
the lowest. There was no real strength
on display. however, because of bearish
reports regarding the spot situation in
the South. Several points wired in that
the interior was not only Offering more
freely but in larger lots and that sellers
were also granting concessions in many
instances. The weather forecast promised
generally fair weather over the cotton
belt for Sunday and this increased bear

shorts for profits, however, prevented a
decline.

THE FARMERS AND THEIR
COTTON.
CONTINUED from Page One

hundreds of thousands of cotton
growers, reposing confidence in their
representatives assembled in Mont
gomery, will heed their deliverances,
and the salutary results should be a
discreet concert of action in the
marketing Of the crop of 1911 in
every part of the South. No man will
be compelled to accep the advices OF
the convention and no man shutting
his ears to them can be punished for
it. The numbe Of cotton rover is
so great and their characters so d.
verse that a business combination OF
them. having wv to impose penal
ties for breach of it's DEGREES. is un-
thinkable. and nc other sort Of COM
bination would be III any ms Illegal
or rep~rehensible.
Nevertheless we shall hear a great
deal of prattle about the farmers
trust" particularly if the farmers
shall succeed in steadying the market
as they did in the late winter and
spring Of 1905.

Explains Why He Can Not Attend
Reunion.

Old soldiers of Kansas, and people
who will come to Topeka to attend the
great reunion, VIII regret to learn that
ex-Speaker Joseph G. Cannon cannot
be present at this great meeting. The
only thing which prevents his attend
ance is the fact that he has another
date at that time. His letter to Sec
retary Coney follows:
August IL, 1911.
Mr. P. H. Coney, Secretary Soldiers
and Sailors Reunion, Topeka, Kan.
Dear Mr.. Coney:-I have your kind
favor of Sth inst, and very much ap-
preciate your exceedingly cordial in
vitation, extended on behalf of the
State Reunion association, to be pres
enr and deliver an address on the oc-
casion Of the state reunion Of the SOL
diers and sailors Of Kansas and the
west, to be held at Topeka, September
26 and %, inclusive.
AS you know, have a deep and
lasting regard for the boys who came
to the rescue of the Union in her hour
of peril, ard it would afford me great
pleasure to attend the reunion and
meet the veterans Of Kansas and the
surrounding states. if it were practica-
BILE for me to 10 so. If, however. We
ever get away from Washington, l have
engagements that cover the time in
dicated in your letter and render IT
impossible for NE to accept the inV1-
tation.
Assuring you of my appreciation Of
the courtesy of the State Reunion as
sociation and thanking you for the
cordiality of your letter, I am as ever,
with respect, cts,
