the fall and be on the watch for the
first symptom of moisture at the nos
triis of any bird and Immediately seq
gregate that bird for the protection
OF the remainder of the flock.
The first treatment for fall colds
is, then, to free house and fowls from
lice and mites, to remove all culls or
weak birds from the flock, to provide
roomy quarters, we'll ventilated with
out drafts or dampness, and to pre-
vent the budding of birds upon the
roosts at night.
The second treatment is to cut Off
all supply of water except that pro-
vided in drinking vessels. If tin ves-
sells are used, fill within two inches
of the top with water and then pour
kerosene on the water just sufficient
to make light film completely COW
ering the surface of the water The
kerosene film should be about u inch
thick. Compel the birds to drink
this water until conditions improve.
If granite or glass drinking vessels
are in use, or stone crooks. instead of
kerosene use permanganate of potash,
putting enough of the crystals in the
water to color it light violet. Stir
until thoroughly dissolved and give
fresh water twice daily. Fer flock
of 100 fowls 10 cents worth of the
permanganate should be sufficient.
Do not use permanganate of potash in
tin or galvanized iron vessels as the
chemical action on these metals rem
ders the medicine ineffective and
ruins the vessels.
Use EPSON Salts.
In addition to the above / would
give every bird in the flock dose Of
epson salts once day for three days.
This will clean up the system. prevent
new colds and aid recovery. The
dose Is one teaspoonful of the salts
per bird. 1t may be administered by
dissolving in little water and using
the water to make moist mash,
which should be fed the birds after a
ten-hour fast. Distribute the mash
as evenly as possible so that each bird
will get his proportionate share, no
more nor no less. A bird may &c
given as much as three teaspoonsful
of the salts at dose without serious
results.
Follow this with nourishing diet
Of not too rich food. Give an album
dance Of green food and keep an edge
on the appetites Of the flock to insure
vigorous scratching in deep clean
straw litter for ali grain fed. The
birds should be kept housed In bad
weather until completely recovered
and even in good weather II the quar-
ters are light and roomy.
Under this treatment all birds
worth saving will have recovered In
time.

STRONG SUPPORT MET COTTON DECLINE Market Broke in Early Trad ing But Later Showed
 Steadiness

New Orleans, November 29.-while the local cotton market broke s1 a bale in the early trading today, it showed
 steadiness later, recovered all of the
 loss and even went 2 to points over Saturdays close. Late in the day scalp ing longs were profit takers and this selling worked against values. The close was at a net loss for the season of 10 to 13 points.
 The market opened excited and ac- tive with prices slumping on a barely steady tone, as the result of local crop estimate of 11,990.0o0 not including linters. This estimate had been waited with considerable interest and expecta- tions that it would be much smaller. Offerings were heavy as soon as the trading of the day started and in the first few minutes of business prices were 8 to 20 points down. Buyers of last week threw much cotton overheard and there was short selling in a large way.
 Strong support met the decline and before noon all of the loss was recov- cred. For time the market held steady
 at small net advance, but toward the close offerings became heavy enough to cause another sag.

CLOSING PRICES
 SHOW REACTIONS
Publication of Cotton Crop Estimates Starts Selling
 Movement

New York. November 29.-Conhicting
 crop estimates seemed to cause more or less confusion in the cotton market today
 and there were violent fluctuations in
 rices. January contracts, for instance, broke to 12.24c during the early trading, then rallied to 12.45c and closed at 12.S1c.
 with the general list closing easy at a
 net loss of IS to % points.
 There was heavy realizing or liquida- tion at the start and prices opened easy at a decline of points on December and of 1s to 24 points on late deliveries. The publication of a crop estimate by a New Orleans authority. placing the growth of
 the season at 1l,99o,OO0 bales. excluding linters, appeared to be responsible for the bulk of the selling and evidently served to modify sentiment as to the probable showing of the governments es-
 innate due on December 10.
 The rapidity of the recent advance which had carried prices over cent above the low level of the month, had also created some reactionary sentiment, and
 at times during the early trading there
 was rather active selling for Wall street
 account. This pressure carried March contracts off to 12.54c and May to 12.72c, ] with active months generally selling about i 20 to 23 points net lower, but offerings
 seemed to be very wen taken at this level
 and the market rallied sharply during the
 middle of the day.
 There was southern, Liverpool and trade l buying, as well as considerable by early 1 sellers on the advance, which carried March contracts up to 12.75c and May to 1 12.95c, or a point above Saturdays final | figures and bullish sentiment was encour- | aged by the publication of a couple of pr- vate estimates ranging in the neighbor- | hood of 11,500,000 bales, excluding linters ] as well as by bullsh reports from the southern spot markets. Later, however, prices eased off again with the decline led by the late months under spot house selling and renewed liquidation. Closing | prices showed reactions of 14 or 15 points l from tho best.
 l With Liverpool relatively steady, the early break here widened the difference between the two markets and probably led to some undoing of straddles.

STOCKS AFFECTEDBy'
 WHEAT SITUATION.
Wild Rush to Buy on Open- ing But Later Normal
 Conditions Prevailed

New York, November 29.-A fresh ele- ment of uncertainty was injected into the financial situation today by the news that the Canadian government had com mandeered some 10000 bushels of high grade wheat at home ports and prob ably would reserve the total wheat sur plus of the dominion, amounting to over 2o000o,0O0 bushels. At first blush, this action was viewed with concern in our markets and a wild rush to buy re- suited. Later, however. the argument prevailed that the seizure would, of ne- cessity, create an increased demand for this countrys available supply and more normal conditions followed.
 Shares of Canadian and granger roads were lower by a point or more in the early dealings and cotton carrying is- sues also developed heaviness, which was Iartly overcome as the session pro- gressed only to be followed by further moderate selling at the close The bal ance of the list represented an unusual mixture of gains and losses General Motors rose 20 points to the new rec ord of 476 and Cuban-Amerfcan sugar made new maximum on its 131s rise to 1l2. Other sugar stocks were strong, and 7 such specialties as AlliS- Chalmers pre- ferred, American Locomotive, New York Air Brake, and Industrial Alcohol were to points higher.
 Included in the list of stronger spe- c1alties were such inactive issues as Ncrth American, Electric Storage, Mon- tana Power, Cluett-Peabody and Man haitian shirt, which derived their chief support from pool manipulation. United states Steel was inclined to sag and Bethlehem Steel emerged from it's ob- scurity, closing at 459, 16 points under it's previous quotation. The final trading was dull and irregular with total sales of 464,000 shares.

 Sc per pound and are quoted at 14c, while bellies and lard have advanced
 A pound.
 Creamery butter continues to soar
 upward, Creamery butter is quoted at
 S5c and process butter at 2s1ac per

 The fish and oyster quotations re- main unchanged, with sufficient supply on hand for all present needs A car of red snapper arrived Monday morn- ing and car of oysters will reach the market today.
 The sea food dealers are jubilant over the cold change and anticipate a fine trade for the next 4S hours. Fruits are fluctuating and show a slight advance. Fancy apples are up 25c barrel and are quoted at S425. Emperor grapes have also advanced $50 ner crate and quoted at S22S. Fancy imported lemons are up soc per box being quoted at s4.5o.

c. F. Avery's Letter

The Times-Picayune estimate of Il 990, 000 exclusive of linters, was the chief news and market influence of the day Many traders dumped their long cot I.ton because of the fact that this news paper has previously been fairly accurate in it's estimate
 The gossip said that MT. Scales was a seller to the extent of about 50,OOC bales. If he sold 1t on the opening, what satisfaction he found at the close cer- tainly was not very comforting or profit able.
 Spot markets. which are the req strength in the situation, were un- changed at all points except Augusta | which was quoted IS points off. The ex- ports for the day were 77,2222, which looks as if the weekend figures were going to show up bullish again on Fri day.
 There has been some talk that the farmers and other holders of spot cotton would be free sellers around 12 cents. In regard to this l would repeat my former advice to holders to sell just a little at
 F cents, little more at 12Ac, and so
 on up, until they get 15 cents for the
 last bale of it, which is bound to be seen before another crop can mature

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, November 29.--Liverpool had a natural reaction from the extreme ad- vance of Saturday, and we opened lower as the action of the Canadian govern ment in regard to wheat brought for ward the query what might happen to the Liverpool cotton stock under extra ordinary conditions. Then the market i rallied sharply to Saturdays closing quo- tations and finally eased on profit talk : ing some l3 points lower. The south feels
 this last advance has shown that they
 have won their fight and that they. by

KING FERDINAND
 OPENS PARLIAMENT

London. November 30.-King Ferdinand opened the session of the Roumanian Parliament in the presence of the crown prince and the ministers. The speech from the throne, says Reuters Buchar- est dispatch, referred to the continuance of the war which is drenching the world with blood" and called attention to the fact that since the previous session other belligerents had been added to the na- tions engaged.
 This situation the King continued. imposes upon us increasingly the duty of uniting our efforts for the defense of Roumania. You will be called upon to decide various measures and credits. to face the present difficulties, and I am convinced that you will continue to sum ply the needs of our beloved army which has always shown itself worthy of the love and confidence of the country"

ing from exporters, especially from the Atlantics.
Charles Fairchilds & Co.'s Letter

New York, November 29.-(Speeial) Opening prices today were below expec- tations as based upon Liverpool stop loss orders were caught and the south sold moderately around 1255c for March and 1275c for May. Local support was evil denced by 20-point ralley followed locals November sold toward the closing and final figures were only about points above the low. while any important sus- tained advance Is unlikely during the next few days, we think purchases made on fair declines will result profitably. The government crop estimate will be pub lished December 10 and as we approach that date conflicting views as to the size of the figures are apt to be reflected in market prices. We believe the crop will be short. and expect much higher prices eventually. Meantime we can see nothing in the oil situation to change our belief in very much much higher prices, par ticularly fop May, which we cosnider cheap anywhere under cents.
