EST INDIAN COTTON.

Messrs. Wolstenholme and Holland, of Ii
verpool, write rs follows, under date Septem-
Der II, with reference to the sales of West
Iadian Sea Island cotton:-
Since our last report, moderate business
has been lone IN West Indian Sea Islands,
chiefly Barbados and St. Kits, at prices
ranging from l6d. to I'D.
Prices are firm, but buyers are awaiting
further news from America as to the grow
ing crop before purchasing freely.
A serious storm has damaged the Carolina
Island cotton, where about 10000 bales are
grown; but we understand that it has not
affected Georgia and Florida, where the crop
usually amounts to about 10000 to 100000
bales.
The report of Messrs. Henry " Frost "
Co, on Sea Island Cotton III the Southern
States, tor the week ending September 8, is
as follows -
In consequence. of the recent severe storm
throughout the Sea Island section, the mark
citing of the crop will be very much delayed,
and 1t viii probably not be before the mid
die or the end Of October that the receipts
will be sufficient to admit of any offerings.
The stock Of the old crop cotton held over
from last year has been temporarily with
drawn from the market, as the Factors are
anticipating very full prices for any we'll
matured sound lots. Under these circum-
stances, no bright cotton of the old crop is
offered under 40c.. equals 22d.- The Agrl-
cultural NeicS, September 30M.

parties found Charles Brodegick tied to p
tree, several miles from the scene Of the

spite of the fact that Mr.. A. I.
Moore, of Staunton, read a paper
de loring prohibition, Stanton will
go dry again." said a delegate to
the convention of the Southern Ho-
tel Mems Association.
"Although I personally do not ia
vor prohibition, yet know that in
Staunton the citizens are decidedly
for it.
II know, too, that more people
were registered as guests in Staun-
ton hotels last year than have been
registered in the past ten or twelve
years.
"MrxMoore runs a hotel in Staun-
ton which in former years depend
ed on it's bar trade for success. Mr..
Moore has been in Staunton little
more than a year.
"ProfessorC. T. Jordan, of Staun-
ton, has shown by facts and figures
that local option has been benefit
to that city and Staunton voters
will emphasize that fact at the next
election"
While the name of the delegate
is not given for reasons best known
to himself, it may be said that he
conducts successful hotel not far
from Staunton and knows the stu
alton there thoroughly.

Owing to Improvement work which
had to be done last spring on the
writer's ranch, the work Of setting out
young pear trees was delayed until
early In May, which in the section in
which the writer lives is considered
two months late. However, we took
pains in setting them. kept them thor
oughly cultivated through an unusual
ly dry season without watering, and
this fall finds them holding their own
admirably. We would not advise as
late planting as this, but mention this
instance to show what is possible if
trees are healthy and are properly set
and cultivated.

Of the prof1tableness of operating the
small farm, and the data 1t has gath
cred relative to one dairy farm in that
state are both interesting and encourag-
ing. Of course 1t goes without saying
that the type of farming followed is at
once the most intensive as we'll as
usually the most profitable. The farm
in question contains forty-two acres,
considerable portion Of it being devot-
ed to pasture. There were kept on the
place twenty-five milk cows, three
head of yearling stock, four bulls and
two draft mares. The receipts includ-
ed $2,135.93 from the sale of cream
and milk and $1,134.27 from other
sources, or a total Of $3.50. The ex-
penditures were $5373G for grain,
$356.43 for forage and 5000 for labor,
or a total Of $1,493.91. This leaves
net income of s4,976.7s, which is a
good notch above the net income from
the average 160 acre farm.
