COTTON ADVANCES
 WITH TONE PRIMER English Labor Advices and
 Southwest Draught Are Factors

New York. August 21.--An early advance on better English labor advices and he failure of the weather map to show any further rains in the southwest over Sun |day, was followed by a sharp reaction in the cotton market today, but the close was several points up from the lowest. and ohe final tone was steady, ret un- changed to points higher.
 The market opened firm at an advance of points on August and 10 to 1s points on later positions, with active months selling about 15 points net higher dur ing the early trading as a result of cov- ering and moderate bull support inspired by higher cables and reports that the English labor troubles had been prac- tically settled. The advance had llso he encouragement of unfavorable private crop accounts and talk of renewed dry, hot weather in the southwest, hut inc south was quite heavy seller on the ili- tial advance, Wall street houses were be- lieved to be liquidating cotton purchased last week and leading spot interests were credited with selling freely against the fapluly lllCItdoihS iCN eic'P The offerings, at any rate, soon became heavy enough to check the advance, and an idea that leading. bulls might be ''oui- dating their cotton on bulges promoted more aggressive pressure from local bears.
 From il ACC, the high point of the morn ing, December contracts sold off to 1i.27c during the middle of the day with active new crop months generally showing ret loss of about 2a4 points, but at this level offerings were little less active and with private wires reporting high temperatures in Texas again today. new crop positions rallied some 9dd0 points from the lowest in the late trading on covering and south- ern bull support.
 Receipts today 12,7ss, against 47e5 last week and TOP last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans were S16 bales, against 25S last week and 143 bales last year. At Houston today 22,04S against 3414 last week and 572S last year.

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, August N-COtton futures opened at an advance of to II points on the settlement of the English labor trou- lbles Cables were not as high as expected, everything considered, but sellers of last week were good buyers and there was no great amount of cotton for sale around the ring. The weather man was called unfavorable as rains were shown in the central belt. where they are not wanted and the western belt where moisture is needed was dry. Soon after the call the list was to 12 points up. Longs took profits and at the end of the first half hour of business prices were to points over Saturdays close.
 Bears were heavy sellers during the larger part of the morning and especially after the accumulation of orders over Sun day had been executed. Their selling was based on rumors that there was still trouble among the Liverpool dock hands. Bulls offered good support but bears sold them all they bid for and offered I:,ore Prices were forced down until they were 6 to points under Saturdays close on the more active months. No attention was paid to the official reports of extremely high temperatures in Texas. Late in the morning trailing shorts were more profit takers and the market reacted come what, prices at noon being 1 point over Satur- days closing level on the trading months
 In the afternoon session the market was steady. Bears were less aggressive, at ?

STOCKS OPEN WITH DECLINE RENEWED Moderately Heavy Selling Again Centers Upon
 :. the Leaders

New York, August 21.-This week in the of the downward movement which recent ly played havoc with securities. There was moderately heavy selling, probably profit taking, which again centered upon the leaders, Union Pacific, Reading and United States Steel.
 Weekend developments offered little 'in- centive for bull activity. Perhaps he most discouraging event was the an7 nouncement of retrenchment by the liar riman system because of uusatisfactory earnings It is understood the proposed . curtailment will affect several thousand employees in the clerical departments Of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific lines and may later embrace the operating 'ivisions. Incidentally, this action on the Tt of the Hartman roads was ac- pted as an indirect response to the re- snt demands of various employees for in eased pay and shorter hours.
 ressure against United States Steel was again pronounced. Heavy offerings of this stock, according to gossip, resulted from fear that the report soon to be sub
  hment of commerce and labor would hard 4 ly favor the stock. The support of the stock depended almost entirely upon the [ whims or caprices of professionals. < Trading languished after the first hour with no material changes other than the intermittent recovery of the speculative leaders. In the late business there was a moderate increase of activity at the ex- pense of values, Union Pacific falling te its previous low level of the day. Final prices were only fraction above the low ests The tone at the close was distinctly heavy. London's dealings in this market were in no sense an influence.
 Bonds were heavy here with further / weakness in American Tobacco per cent. Total sales, par value, s1,507,000.
 United States bonds unchanged.

You can do il.

A government engineer this week
made the remark, that: ANY intel
ligent farmer ought to be able to
net $50 per acre on Deming land,
and do il easily"
II this is true, it is a pretty good
proposition for you to investigate,
you can certainly get the land east
ly, the best in the valley. Rich
soil, easy water lift and adjoining
the townsite.
Figure out if you are netting
$50 X 40 acres now, and II not. let
US tell you how you can get hold of
40 acres, or more or less, on easy
terms s-you can pay for the whole
farm with two good crops. then get
a good setting of alfalfa and sit
down and watch the days go by
and the dollars come in. Ask the

HENRY +. BLACKHAM
|NvENTs new pump
Ingenious Deming Machinist
Stirs Things up in the
Pump World
Frat Carload Of Pumps VIII
be Manufactured in FL
Paso.

Henry F. Blackham. expert ma
chinist, head Of the firm Of Black
ham 4 Son, has perfected an inven-
ton in an improved, vertical, GEN.
trifugal pump. water-sealed without
a stufiing box, that will make the
pump people open their eyes wide.
All shaftings and bearings under
water viii run in oil and the ma
chine can run above or below the
surface at pleasure, and can be sub
merged to any desired depth. The
whole thing is light, but on account
OF the manner Of It's construction,
II is very strong and rigid.
Because of the lack of foundry
facilities in Deming. the first in
voice Of pumps will be made by
Krakaur, Fork & Moye at FL Paso,
who are very favorably impressed
with the new machine, and who can
see the great need for such a
pump.
Mr.. Blackham is a master me-
chinist Of some note, while he was
yet in England having patented an
improved style of pump. a steam
boiler automatic furnace. feed wa
ter heater, piston and a useful me-
