NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

New Orleans, Feb. 27.-Fear that
England might add cotton to the con-
traband list caused much selling anj
a decline in the future market today.
Covering Of short cotton by bears who
wanted to realize profits over the
week end kept the tone steady and
caused a complete recovery. The close
was at a net loss OF one to two points
At the lowest the trading months were
six points under yesterdays close.
Bulls were nervous because Of the
situation abroad and exporters were
said to have withdrawn from the
market. kilograms from the interior

effect.

This Is Followed BY a Mod

New York. Feb. 81 An early de-
cline in cotton was followed by mod
crate rallies. and the close was very
steady. net four points lower TO one
point higher.
Apreheusious that cotton might be
made contraband seemed To be largely
responsible for the selling movement.
The talk around the floor today re-
flccted fear that even ii this were not
done some measure might tie adopted
which would greatly restrict futuFe
shipments to Germany or Austria.
The market opened at q decline or
four 70 five points. and later sold
about seven to nine points net lower
under scattering local liquidation and
New Orleans selling.
Trade interests were buyers on the
decline, and prices later recovered
most of the loss on covering which
probably was promoted by the com
paratively heavy spinners taking foI
the week Closing prices were prac-
ucally the best Of the week.
Notwithstanding predictions Of :
decreased export movement. the
amount Of cotton on shipboard await

ness yesterday was 451 .914 bales, o.
nearly 10000 bales in excess of the
amount at the same time last week.

FIGHTING FOR PURE MILK

between dirty milk and the excessive
death rate among infants that farm.
erS are beginning to realize as never
before the necessity Of eo-operatiot
with the municipal authorities in their
fight for pure milk.
Milk is certainly the most imp0rt
ant article of food in the human dis
tary and it is also the most contain
nable. 1t is therefore, up TO the farm
er to see that the milk from his dailI
gets to city babies in as REASONABLE a
state of cleanliness as possible. Not
that this is an exclusively baby prob
lem, for all sorts OF diseases are car
rie1 through milk. Tu berculosiS IS
an example of this class, and a mum
Der of epidemics of diptheria ana
scarlet fever have been traced to the
milk supply, but when we pause H..
consider that one-ffth Of all the babies
born in the United States die in
| their infancy from preVentahle dis
eases, and that sixty per cent of these
| are due to gastro-intentinal disease
| due to improper feeding or impure
! milk, We naturally begin to look into
| the cause.
| l realize, of course, that not every
| farmer can have his milking done
scientifically, but it is possible for hin
| TO produce safe milk for his own use
and that of the public by very simpl4
| and inexpensive means.
He may not have an etaborat g

Then, there should be u covered

keep nine-tenths Of the dirt out dur

may be kept clean rinsing in scaldne
water. If ice is not possible for one
farmer is it not feasible for several
