From Missouri.
Bogard, 10, A, 1918.

AT date or my last letter from
this place the climate or at
least, the weather was intensely
dry and hot. For the past two
weeks, however. the situation
has been relieved by good rains,
and the verdent carpet of blue
grass, wheat, clover and other
revived vegetation certainly glad
den the eyes of a Kentuckian.
Speaking Of these sons of the
martial commonwealth, they are
here in great force. Mention
has been made of my brother,
Bran White, Geo. Franklin, Will
Bottoms. Garrett Morris, Bob
Owen and John White; all of
whom are either here or obtained
their start here in a financial
way, but some have gone to
greener fields and pastures new;
while Loren Snow lies buried
near Vaudeville, where | am
teaching, and Leslie is near the
border line in the state of Kan
sas.
On Saturday, | had the pleas
ure of meeting ". M. Wilmore,
once of Adair county. Kentucky,
but now of Bogard, Mo. He
keeps a soft drink saloon and res
turant, and prospers in his bus
mess. You can always distin-
guish a Kentuckian here by his
mustache. Every Kentucky mi
gratory bird wears a set that a
colonel of cavalay might envy.
i have previously mentioned
several Kentucky Colonels, and
one, | have not seen, but heard
him. | was at home of Bran
White, when was informed that
a very martial and strident voice
from Braymer, Is miles distant,
was calling for me, and l learn
ed it was none other than Pete
Rosenbaum, who desired to pass
the time of day. He was using
a phone, but can be heard Is
miles with his stentorian lungs,
without any scientific help. He
is said to live in Prosperity street,
and has, for consort, MoIlie Nor
ris, formerly of old Adair. 1t is
said that he is a tuneful Levite,
and introduced The Harp of
Columbia into the music of
Missouri, and created a sensa-
ton in favor of the Kentucky
product.
Nearly all Kentuckians who
come here, are partial to Ken
lucky lassies, for Bran has mar
ried two Of them, and Pete Ros-
enbaum remained loyal. l was
very much taken with Kentucky
damsels myself, but as Cliff Will
hanson. of North Carolina was
by praying-I never could have
any luck. Every where l tried
to make goo-goo eyes, the YER
dict was; mo Irish need apply"
The girls here look so much like
Kentucky girls that have voted
them things of beauty and joy
forever. But readers of Adair
County News will remember the
vivid portrayal of my heart rend-
ing experiences when rode the
farm as big Missouri and tried to
be young Lochinvar. About all
the trouble had was, that the
girl and all their people objected
to my society and attentions; and
even took name of the big Mis-.

COTTON MARKET
CONTINUES LOW
New Crop Positions Make
New Ground Under Seat
tered Selling

New York August 1.-The cotton market
was lower again today with all new crop
positions making new ground for the
movement under continued scattered sell
ing which seemed to come largely from
southern sources. Rather a bullish view
of the weekly weather bureau caused q
moderate rally during the middle of the
day. but failed to inspire any aggressive
demand from either trade or speculative
sources and the market reached the low
est point in the late trading with posi-
ton later than September closing below
the II cent level The final tone of the
market was barely steady and last prices
were from to 13 points net lower.
Liverpool fully met the declines which
had occurred in American markets since
the English close of last Friday and the
local market opened steady at an ad-
vance of points on August. but general
ly unchanged to l point lower. There was
a little trade buying around the ring,
but very favorable private crop accounts
from the eastern belt were accompanied
by southern selling orders and prices
soon eased off to a net loss of from S
to points on active new crop positions.
August remained relatively steady in the
absence of sellers, and towards midday
the general list steadied on covering in
advance of the weekly weather report
This claimed that both Texas and Okla
homa were still suffering from lack of
rain and there was enough buying to
rally prices to within 2 or 8 points of
last nights closing figures. No impor-
tant demand showed itself, however, and
the market later weakened again under
continued southern selling, much of which
was supposed to be against prospective
crops. or scattered liquidation. Private
cables said the market at Liverpool had
a very weak tone and unfavorable trade
reports from Manchester probably helped
the local decline, which. however, was
more generally attributed to the absence
OF any important speculative demand and
the approach of the new crop movement.
Boston claimed that Texas was offering
a little new crop cotton for immediate
shipment

INDICATIONS POINT
TO IMMENSE CROP
Wheat Makes a Downward
Plunges as Result-37,-
100000 Bus. Excess

/. Chicago. August 5.-Wheat made a
downward plunge today, Influenced in
part by an estimate that this years s crop
in the United States is the largest on rec
ord. The market closed steady, but 7kd1c
to llzql9sc under last night Corn fin
ished asc to 5s@s4c Off; oats down ss@lsc
to 1ac, and provisions DC to 15c up
According to a leading authority, the
wheat yield for this season will reach a
total of S700O,0O0 bushels in excess of that
of the previous 12 months The new rec
ord was figured TO be 526,O1O0oo bushels
winter wheat and 271 100000 bushels spring.
1t was after this estimate had been made
public that the market which had been
under heavy selling pressure throughout
reached the low point of the day and
seemed unable to uey except a little.
Earlier elements of weakness lay in the
end of bull enthusiasm regarding corn aud
In the total lack of export call, notwith-
standing that shippers here were making
transatlantic offers at the lowest rela-
tive price on the crop.
Primary receipts of wheat were /, ISL, COO
bushels; year ago, $4,000 bushels. Sea-
board cleaTances of Wehat and flour
equalled 666,O00 bushels
Although the shortage of corn and oats
this year was declared to be a billion
bushels compared with a year ago, both
cereals showed heaviness all day, barring
a splurge at the outset Taking the ses-
sion as a whole, the volume of corn trade
was by no means so large as heretofore
of late, non-professional buying especially
seeming to have been exhausted. Resting
orders to sell at an advance were much
in evidence. Predictions of scattered
showers discouraged the bulls and so also
did later reports of some rain at various
points.
The oats crowd did not take offerings at
all well after the market had begun to
subside wit hcorn. Cash oats We're off 1c
to &c from yesterday and hard to sell ct
that.
Provisions advanced on account of buy
ing credited to packers. 1t was gossip that
recent declines in the, hog market would
curtail receipts to uncomfortable degree.

Glass Most Elastic Body

Glass is one of the most interesting, as
well as one or the most peculiar things in
the world, says the New York f,ress. II
has curious and contradictory qualities
and many astonishing phenomena are
connected with ii. Brittle and breaks BILE
as it is. yet it exceeds almost all other
bodies In elasticity
If two glass balls are made to strike
each other at given force, the recoii,
by virtue of their elasticity. will be nearly
equal to their original impetus. Connect
ed with its brittleness are some very sim
gular facts.
Take a hollow sphere. with hole, and
stop the hole with the finger, SO as to
prevent the external and internal air
from communicating, and the sphere will
fly to pieces by the mere heat of the
hand.
Vessels made of glass that have been
suddenly cooled possess the curious prop
erty of being able to resist hard blows
given to them from without, but will be
instantly shivered by a small particle OF
flint DROPPED into their cavities
This property seems to depend upon the
comparative thickness of the bottom; the
thicker the bottom is, the more certainty
of breakage by this experiment.
Some of these vessels, it is stated. have
resisted the stroke Of a mallet given with
sufficient force to drive a nail into wood,
and heavy bodies, such as musket balls.
pieces of iron, bits of wood. jasper, stone.
ETC., have been cast into them from a
height of two or three feet without any
effect. yet fragment of flint not larger
than pea dropped from height of three
incheS made them fiy to pieces.
