New York Cotton.

New York, Nov. 4-Cotton opened
steady at an advance of IL to 10
points and ruled very active during
early trading. The opening advance
here was not full response to the
strength in Liverpool over the local
adjournment, owing to heavy realiz-
ing by old longs, but the continued
firmness of cables and reports of kill
ing temperatures inspired heavy gen.
eral buying, and the market sold up
to net gain of % to rs points dur
ing the middle of the morning with
all positions making new records for
the movement Profit taking by cd
longs continued on a big scale but
trade interests were equally heavy
buyers and the market continued very
firm at the advance
With tomorrow holiday in Amer
lean markets, while Liverpool re,
mains open for business, profit taking
became more general and the market
at midday was or points off from
the best Trade interest continued
good. buying continued good while

WORK SOON
STARTS ON
A., 7. and A.
SURVEYORS TO START IN
Call Will Then Be Made For
First Payment

President Myers, of the Americas,
Triton and Atlantic railroad, the pro-
jected road in which so great local
interest exists, yesterday phoned
George r. E lis, Esq, one of the direc-
tors, that he could announce that as
soon as the Triton fair was closed, and
the energies of the president and
Chairman Tiff released, the surveying
party would be put in the field and
work pushed on the preliminaries.
This will be welcome news to Amer
icus citizens, a number of whom are
subscribers to the capital stock Of
the new company AS is genera ly re-
membered. the local subscription to
the stock of the A, T. & A, is $25,-
600.
AS soon as the surveyors begin work
call will be made for first pay
ment of five per cent. on the stock.
This will mean but 81 $50 on the Amer
icus stockholders. 1t will be prompt
ly collected and RENTED.
1t is realized here that the build
ing of the A., T. & A. road will mean
the opening of cons derable new coun-
try to trade with Americas. This be-
ing the terminus of the road may re-
suit in the establishment of the offices
here and eventually, if the road is
further developed of shops. The road
is eventually to be finished to the
coast to some enterprising seaport,
giving Americas another outlet.

Irish National Color.

The color officially recognized for
Ireland is blue, ST. Patrick's blue, and
that was ',nciently and honorably rec
ognized as the Irish color. In the
royal standard of the United King
dom the quarter blazoning Ireland
shows this field of blue as the back
ground for the golden harp with its
silver strings. The ribbon of the
Order of st. Patrick is of the same
blue. The green is the revolutionary
color and is quite modern. Some an
tiquarians maintain that the earliest
flag of Ireland was of orange, long
antedating the more recent factional
use of that color.

WANT REFORMS MADE
AT THE STATE FARM
Should Either Be Enlarged or Have
More Rigid Rules.

Atlanta, Nov 4.-Either an enlarge
ment of the capacity of the state farm
or a stricter set of rules under which
prisoners may be sent there, will be
considered at the coming session of the
Legislature.
The farm is rapidly getting to be
badly crowded. Several convicts have
been sent from Atlanta recently to the
state farm who were not in the strict
sense of the word incapac tated for
work on the chaingangs. OF course in
each instance the judge had some reas-
on for sending the prisoner to the
farm But the crowding of the insti-
tuition results nevertheless. Two years
ago the convict popu alton of the state
farm was only about 800. Today t
has increased to $40

HOW THE TRAP-hEST PAYS

1 am glad to note your attitude toward trap nests for egg produc- tion. We use trap-nests for our ,000 White Leghorns, following this method. For the 1000 lay CTS we have POO trap nests made after the Maine Experiment Sta tion nest. Each of our hens has an aluminium sealed leg band on her right leg. with her number on it. When she is ready to lay she enter, the nest and in enter ing locks herself in. From 10 in the morning until i in the after noon. we go through the laying houses every hour. Each hen is removed from the nest and a re- cord made on a laying record hung in each pen. At the end of the week or at the end of the month we can tell exactly how many eggs No. 457 has laid, if the eggs are large or small. of good shell and shape and if laid every day or every other day.
 When breeding seasons arrives We go over our records, pick ou' all hens who have laid specified d number of eggs, and then choose again for record. shape, GOT, etc.
 In this way We can keep tally on all diseased hens ard avoid using them for reproduction.
 This the trap-neSt does for the egg fam, and without such 6 system you simply cannot gather al of the profit = Progressive Far mer.
