HARLAN MAN CLAIMS
MONEY. IN SORGHUM

Harlan, Nov. 10.-:-A. A. Dineen has
disposed OF 900 gallons of sorghum at
rs cents per gallon. He is lamenting
that he hadn't facilities for making
10000 gallons. He cotild have sold ten
times his output but wasn't able to de-
liver the goods. Only the farmers who
would come to his place for it were
favored for shipments from as far
west as Idaho were disregarded. Mr..
Dinner believes that there Is money in
sorghum. This has been q dry season,
but the crop was successfully grown IN
spite Of climatic conditions. Under or
binary conditions cane will produce
100 gallons to the acre and in addition
forty three bushels Of seed. The
sorghum will sell at IS cents a gallon
and the seed at $1.15 per hundred
pounds In other words, the average
income per acre is about 500, of which
$85 is net. Cane has reputation Of be-
ing ground robber, but Mr.. Dineen
asserts that corn following cane does
better than corn on any other ground.

 The compromise revision schedule, proposed yesterday by Lewis w. Parker of Greenyille, s.

It was frequently referred to during the examination of witnesses and it will have considerable bearing in the committee figuring on the low rates.
 There also win be some reductions in schedule J. the part of the Payne-Aldrich law that deals with flax, hemp and jute and their manu- factures.

NEW YORK COTTON.

New York, Jan. 23.-The cotton market became weak and unsettled after an early advance today and just about lost yesterdays gains with the close today steady, but IA to 2l points net lower.
 The market opened steady at a de- cline of point on January and March, but generally to points higher with the active months sell ing ten to twelve points above the closing figures of last night during the first feww minutes. This ad- vance was in response to better cab les than due and a renewal of yester- days buying movement. March con tracts sold up to 12.37, but at tlis level the market met very heavy of ferings. The census figures were about in line with expectations, and were not considered factor either way, but private scables from Austria claiming that there was very little prospect of any immediate trade re- tlement and rather less favorable spot adyicse from New Orleans prob ably encouraged sellers. Wall street interests and houses with southern connections particularly Memphis, were heavy sellers here.
 The market was weak and unset tied in the late trading and closed at practically the lowest prices of the dayJ
 Leading trade interests were buy CTS of March, but sold May and there was some buying on scale down at tributed to spinaers, but otherwise the demand was rather in the way of realizing by early sellers. e Sentinel4Record want ads. pay bis dividends on the investment.
