The Country Newspaper

The country newspaper Is always
alive to the best interests OF the com
munity. No one is more apprcclltivo
OF the influences which tend To Tho
upbuildng of the town than the editor
who comes in contact with all classes,
and no one is in position to dlsoos cI
the tendencies which are calculated to
rctard growth with more unerrine
certainty.
When representatives of 40 news
papers published throug hout the In
land Empire were gathered recently
in Spokane they passed the following
resolutions. which may be studied
with profit, not only by the farmers
but by the merchants as well:
We recommend the use and sale
of home made products. in our
several communities and the pat
ronagc of local merchants and in
dustries by all consumers, We
believe that the decrease in the
population of the farming sections
and rural communities is due in
considerable measure to the
tendency toward teh charging of
individual farm holdings and to the
operations of the national mail or
utI nOuStS. W 4 III 49,
a concerted and widespread effort
to reduce the size of the farm
unit, to encourage intensive farm
ing activities, and to give the
most extensive publicity to the
possibilities and prospects that are
opened to the legitimate home
seeker in our respective commun-
tiles.
We urge upon the farmars,
fruitgrowers and others engaged
in agricultural pursuits, as also
upon the residents of our cities
and towns, the desirability and
necessity of purchasing home made
products and of giving preference
wherever possible TO the home
merchant.
We call attention to the fact
that money withdrawn from local
circulation and sent to distant
mail order house represents drain
on the very likelihood of the par
ticular community concerned. 1t
works an injury to the merchant,
to the WaTc-carncr. to the prop
erty owner and TO the farmer him
self, whose holdings are always
enhanced in value through prox-
unity OF thriving trade-center
We further believe that the mer-
chants of the small cities and
towns are in measure responsible
for the inroads of the mail order
houses upon their trade. Having
the advantage of immediate and
personal contact with thei rcus-
toners, they should by adopting
modern merchandising methods
and through intelligent and per-
sistent advertising, be able to
compete successfully with said
mail order houses.
We hereby pledge our earnest
support to any worthy project
which has for its object the hon
est development of any section of
the Inland Empire. such as irri-
cation, good roads. etc, and to dis
courage without schemes ard fake

SHORT COVERING
PUTS COTTON UP
Wall Street and Spot Houses
Reduce Short Lines-May Po-
sitiOn Hot for Bears.

NEW YORK. April lin line with
firm cables, the local cotton market
opened barely steady to-day. with first
prices al net advance of to I points
from last nights close Sentiment, how
ever, among the ring crowd was agains,
the market, and the crowd was inclined
10 sell. but offerings were readily alb
sorbed by the larger spot interests, ana
prices tiuctuated within a narrow range.
At the end Of fifteen minutes most ac-
tive positions were TO points lower
than the opening range.
Futures ana spots in Liverpool were
quiet.
The weather map was almost perfect
to-day. \ dispatch from New orleans
said that engineers there predicted less
water than they had there during the
overflow last year.
In face OF general bearish sentiment
the most radical bears seem afraid to
sell further short. They show a dis
position To await further new crop de-
velopments.
During the late forenoon a wave Of ag-
gressive buying from some Of the most
conservative bull quarters caused an un-
easy FEELING among local shorts VINO
quickly run TO cover. Wall Street ana
the ring crowd who We're early sellers
ing attracted considerable attention. but
later in the day rell & BaruCh, brok-
ers, also MCFadden were heavy buyers
and covered large per cent Of their
short lines.
When this buying set in il was
thought that there would be q squeeze
in May and July. May Jumped 10 points
from the initial level within - minutes.
while July followed closely by advancing
ID points. At I o'clock the market was
steady with active position firmly main
tanned at the high point OF the day.
The general belief is that an eNcep-
tionally large short line has been aCCu-
mulated In May and July and unless the
spot situation weakens the bulls will
press a. squeeze in these two options.
which will undoubtedly exceed the
March squeeze
The selling seemed 10 come from com
mission houses and Liverpool. which was
said to be profit-t taking on recent low
purchases.
The market closed steady with near
positions at a net gain of T. 10 u points

vance from the final quotations Of Mon
