thing at all, and the fact is that in
the northern part of the state of
Minnesota, the state forestry provis-
ion is considered farce. I think
that the man who operates in cedar
or pulp wood should be compelled to
burn the brush. I do believe that
the man who operates in pine should
be compelled to burn the brush as he
makes it,

Mr.. Bolton: II don't agree with
Mr.. Welsh in one thing. I don't
like to have the feeling go out.

state of Minnesota do stand ready to
do what is right in the burning of
brush. It is only question of get

BEST"
Mr.. John Moberg: II know of the
brush burning that has been done on
the reservation east of us and know
that is a nice clean country anyway
but in the country north of us
think if they undertake to burn the
brush north of us Kelliher and
Blackjack, they will have an awful
proposition. I don't think any one
would take job of burning the
brush on any land for So thousand
7 know I would not. There are places
on the reservation that cost me less
than fifty cents but that was differ
enttimber and different country.
Another thing I want to ask you
gentlemen about. I cut some lanc
near Kelliher, just cut the pine ano
spruce. and the balsam and the rest
of the timber belongs to the farmer
Now I don't know whether he wants
me to burn the brush or not. If
burn the brush I will have to burn
the balsam and the rest OF the stun
| guess he wants me to burn the
balsam and then sue me for damages
I might be up against pretty marc
proposition. And if burned in the
winter, I would burn a lot OF stun
and burn the spruce even then
AS long as you burn anything tha1
is any good they would have kick

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, February 10.-( Special )- Europe did not respond to our ad- advance, although tho near positions were stronger than the distant, show ing the straddle was not yet being re- yersed on any large scale. Here we have had the same excited buying principally for northern account based on the same idea that we have before stated and which Is now discussed everywhere, but there is a great diff ference between when the straddle was made at cent and a half lower than this and now
 Still so long as this demand con tinues the market will advance and we believe that the south will take ad- vantage of the advance at this season of the year to dispose of the cotton which they expected to hold over at lower prices.
 At some point the straddle will be reversed because the spot houses will not carry the surplus forward at a loss, in the meantime the feeling is very bullish, the buyers in many in- stances being those who were bearish at the bottom. and We can expect the statistical position to grow bearish.

Weekly Cotton Review

New Orleans, February 10.-The cotton market was again under bull control thls week and closed at net advance or 70 to 5l points. The high prices were made on Saturday and the low prices on Tues day At the highest the trading months were % to 30 points over last week. close At the lowest they were IS to 29 points under. The range was hS to S4 points.
 Bullsh manipulation of the short inter- ests in the contract and spot markets was chiefly responsible for the advance. Shorts in both departments were forced to cover by rising market It was not until the latter part of the week that any fresh buying for long account of consequence was in evidence i'll futures. At the close of the week many brokers claimed that their books had been cleaned of short cot ton.
 The movement was large and caused an- other increase in the visible supply, but this did not affect prices adversely. The advance continued right up to the end of the week. Many professional traders went short late in the week on the eXpecta- tion of a reaction on the closing session on profit taking over Sunday by longs. but such expectations were not realized.
 Liverpool sent over many bullish cable grams during the week to the effect that tho demand for both raw cotton and fin islsd goods was keen. The rise in the prire of silver was an important feature of the week and had much to do with the better business in Manchester.
 The weather of the week was favorable on the whole. and reports from the cot ton belt said that farm work, from pick ing to blowing, was being rushed. The dry weather put roads in good shape and caused heavy movement, the into sight for the week being 422,569 bales, against 227. .445 this week last year and 154,S35 this week two years ago.
 In the spot department the demand was good and prices had strong rising ten dency. Middlng closed at a rise of 12c. being quoted al 101ac, against 10c last week and 145sc this week last year Sales on the spot amounted to 1l620 bales, against II $50 last week and 1796 this week last year. Sales 10 arrive amounted to 1925 bales, against 52i5 last week and 353S this week last year

London Stocks

London, February 10.--The stock market was quiet and uncertain dur ing the week and fluctuations were fairly wide at irregular net changes. The failure of the government to an nounce scheme for the rehabilitation of consols caused heaviness in gilt edged securities early in the week. but the reduction in the bank rate wiped out the decline and created a more cheerful feeling without, however, in ducing much fresh business the com ing settlement acting as restraining influence.
 The prospects of a favorable out come of Viscount Haldane's visit to Berlin were offset at the end of the week by Paris and Berlin liquidation and rumors of fresh loans and the market closed dull and undecided. Home rails are still overshadowed by the un- certainty of the wage question in the coal trade and Mexican rails by revo- lutionary news, but Chinese bonds im- proved on the more settled copditions in China, while Grand Trunk shares were helped by good dividend am nouncements.
 American securities moved irregu- larly owing to the uncertainty of the money trust investigation in the Unit ed States. The declaration of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific dividends and the reduction in the bank rate caused a general hardening of values and today, after an extremely idle ses- sion the market closed with prices un- changed to points higher than last Saturday,

.B|G RECEIPTS HAVE A BEAR|SH EFFECT
Wheat Closing Figures Are Lower Than Friday.
 Corn Unchanged

Chicago, February 10.-Heavy receipts at primary terminals had bearish ef- feet today on wheat. Largely as a result closing figures were penclled 1ac to 9sc under yesterday.
 In corn the outcome was unchanged to 1-16c up. Oats finished at lsc advance. Hog products finished less expensive by a shade to 7tac.
 Pit traders sold wheat freely in conse- quence of the liberal country deliverees and the lack of cash demand. Minneapolis arrivals in particular were nearly twice as big as at the corresponding time a year ago.
 Primary receipts for the week made a total of 3,1400oo bushels, against 2,526, ,OOO bushels a year ago. In addition the bears had announcement from decline at Liverpool due to more generous offerings from Argentina Besides the four trade was-r reported slow here and in the north est. Not much attention was paid to a report from Winnipeg that beginning March western Canadian grain could be shipped into the United States on the same rate basis for domestic use as to Fort Williams, Ontario.
 Shorts covering to prepare for the Mon day holiday gave the list a steady tone in the end. During the session May ranged from s1.03 to s1 .033s, with the close lsc net lower at sl 0SAal .039s. Corn hard ened on account of good cash demand east and southwest The weakness of wheat caused some selling, but the bears were not aggressive May fluctuated be- tween 6s1sc and 6Sac, closing steady at 6SssG6Ssic, or net advance of shade.
 Cash grades were quiet. No. yellow showed no intimation of quotation.
 In oats the principal activity was on the part of cash houses taking hedges from the May option This was done with out bringing about any special change in prices. Outside limits touched for that future were 52isc and 52ss@o2s4c, with last sales 1sc up at 525sc.
 More general selling Of hog products developed than for some time. Supplies at the yards were in excess of what had been looked for. When the gong ceased trading prices showed decline all around lard 5d7lac and from a shade to Dc for the rest of the list.
 Future quotations were as follows:

To Tell Where Coins Were Made

From St. Nicholas.
 Coins made at the Philadelphia Mint have no mark, but those struck at tho other United States hints have one or moro letters upon them to distinguish them from those made at Philadelphia, which for many years was the only mint.
 These letters. which are Very smai. cap- itals. are found upon the reverse of the coins with the exception of the new de- sign double eagle and the Lincoln head cent. upon which they are on the ob- verse.
 The only hints now in operation in thls country are those at Philadelphia, San Francisco and Denver. the others having been discontinued.
 Coins struck at the Philadelphia mint have no mint mark. those struck at all other hints of the United States are dis tinguished by small letter near the bot tom: these letters are c for Charlotte.

COTTON SHOWS
 GREAT ACTIVITY
Bullish Excitement COntin- ued Prices Make New
 High Ground

New York, February 10.--It was day of great activity in the cotton market and bulish excitement continued, with prices making new high ground and reaching practically the 101ac level on covering. The close was firm at q net advance of from [ to II points.
 The opening was firm at a decline of points on February. but generally 1 to 15 points higher on heavy overnight buying orders and a continuation of the covering movement, which has been so prominent for the past three or four days. Cables were shade disappointing and it looked as if leading long interests had large selling orders around the open ing.
 Prices reacted only few points from the opening figures and as soon az early sellers for turn saw how readily of- fers were being absorbed the market firmed up again and on the late trading sold 14 to Ia points net higher on the old crop and from 9 10 II points above the closing figures of last night on the new crop positions. May contracts sold at 10 .47c and July at 10 56e or more than 75 points above the low level of last Tuesday morning and about $S.5o per bale above the low records of last De- eember Commission houses were very active during the day, suggesting an in- crease outside in interest on the bull side of the market. And 1t seemed some old shorts who had previously shown great stubbornness in their position on the market were covering in advance on the local holiday, as New Yofk will be closed on Monday, while both New Or leans and Liverpool will remain open.
 Private cables attributed the somewhat disappointing English futures to realiz- ing for over the week end, but the Liver pool spot market showed continued strength and overnight advices from the interior points reported an active de- mand from New England spinners. Re view of the dry goods trade was con sdered encouraging from bullish stand point and such bearish features as ap- peared in the news seemed to attract little or no attention.
 Receipts today 45,301 bales, against oS, 129 last week and e9,4O2 last year. Receipts at New Orleans 12,721 against S2O9 last year. At Galveston 12.SI bales. against 4s97 last year and at Houston oIl9 bales against 5113 last year.

When Salt Gets Damp

From the New York Sun.
 Very few persons know that when tlle salt gets damp it is either because it Is too near the sea or because it is going to rain. It is very hard 10 keep the salt cellar dry at the seashore. as there is so much moisture in the air all the time; but In other places it is usually sign of rain when the salt gets damp.
 Things that help themselves to the water in the air are called "deldueseent," and salt is one of them. When water is in the air in the form of gas it sometimes becomes too plentiful for the air to hold, and then we get what is called "precipi- tation," or rain. But long before the water vapor in the air Is heavy enough to fall in rain there is enough of it to spare to make salt damp.

Montgomery Market

Montgomery, February 10--(Speciat)-- The local cotton market was firm. Strict middling sold at 10ssc and middliug at 10c. During the last few days there has been a plentiful supply of eggs on the mar ket, local dealers announcing today that eggs had been coming in steadily since the middle of the week. and that ndi- cations were that they would be as low as 25 cents per dozen retail the first of next week.
 The wholesale price of eggs today was 30 cents while the retail price was around 8 cents per dozen.
 The supply of vegetables Is medium with fairly good quantity on hand.
 Celery is scarce, as Cincinnati Is the only point from which local dealers could secure any for the last few days.
 Grapefruit is selling at si.50 crate and is rather hard to secure.
 There is an occasional supply of new potatoes on the market, but this supply is only temporary, as they are promptly sold.
 Beets are high and scarce and bell pep pers are an unknown quantity
