It goes without saying that the festive longeared jack
rabbit is becoming the supreme nuisance IN eastern anu
central Oregon Even in this locality these rodents are
doing as much destructive work during the winter months
as in the summer Complaints from rancherS are I" t'
effect that the rabbits burrow under alfalfa stacks u-
deImning them to such an extent that III man! cases
the stacks sink into the excavations made.
Different methods adopted III the attempt To eN-
terminate the pests Grain after being prepared ac-
cordng to the government formulas is spread on boards
during the season Of snow and surrounded by alfalfa hay
It is asserted that 300 rabbits DESTROYED o ranch
not far from Ontario where - posoncSs bats were placed
near alfalfa hay If this method was adopted by all
ranchers the determination of the rabbits would be Il
question of only short period

BUYING MOVEMENT
 SENDS COTTON UP
Future Market Closed at a Net Gain for the Day
 of 36 Points

New Orleans, November 1s.-Cotton moved upward strongly on this mar ket today as the result of new bug ing movement which seemed to have It's foundation chiefly in expectations or bullish bureau report on Amer icaD consumption tomorrow and bull ish ginning returns in the report due early next week, which will carry the crop to the close of business tonight. At the highest of the day the strong est months were nearly s2 a bale up and the July option made new high record by trading at 19.s3c a pound. Spots were lifted 19 points to 1s.19c for middling, a new high record. The future market closed at a net gain for the day of 3s to 36 points.
 The market opened steady and at the advance in sympathy with better cables than due and on a private crop estimate of 1O.s62,9OO bales. In the early trading the improvement amounted to something over s1 a bale, 21 to 24 points, and the rise gradually widened until late in the session trad ing months were 32 to 3S points up.
 A large business was done, but the market was not as active as it has been recently at times of strong ad- vances and large professional traders appeared to take less speculative in terest in the long side. Outside buying orders were in moderately large vol ume.

BIG ADVANCE OF
 COTTON PRICES
Strength Attributed to Crop Estimates and the Firm
 Spot Ruling

New York November 13-There was a today with March and all later deliveries making new high records for the season. March sold up to 1s.94c or 4e points above Saturdays closing figures, while eaaiy new crop deliveries sold about 70 to 80 points net higher with September touch ing the 19c level. Closing prices were very steady and from S5 to 72 points above the final figures of last week.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of 20 to s2 points on general buying inspired by the strength of Liverpool and Q crop estimate from Memphis placing actual growth of the season at only 10, sOO,Oo0 bales. There was a good deal of realizing around the opening figures, but offerings were readily absorbed on re- actions of or 10 points from the best, and the market sold about 30 to 40 points net higher before midday. As the price worked above 20 cents for May, offerings Increased again and there was an early afternoon set back of 10 or 12 points, but buylng was encouraged by bullish south ern spot advices and the highest prices of the day were reacted in the late trad ing. when January sold at 1976c and May at 20.09c, or about 40 to 46 points net higher on the old crop positions. New
 
 crop months which have been selling at very big discounts, led the afternoon ad- vance and seemed to be attracting an increased demand from trade and outside sources. October contracts sold up to 1S.S5c, or so points above Saturdays clos ing figures, with the advance meeting very small offerings owing to the strength of the old crop positions The peace ru- nors circulating during the afternoon received both bearsh and bullsh com ment around the ring, and the strength was most generally attributed to the re- iteration of small crop estimates and the firm ruling of southern spot markets dur ing the past week of nervousness and irregularity. Private cables attributed the advance in Liverpool to continental buying of summer and new crop months, and said offerings were small aside from some hedge selling of near positions Spot interests were active buyers of Jan uary here, while there was active cover ings and re-buying by old longs who had sold out last winter

TRADING FITFUL ON
 STOCK EXCHANGE
Republic Iron and Gulf States Steel Again Make
 Record Quotations

New York November 12.--An under current of heaviness and uncertainty pervaded today's stock market even though many stocks were strong at times and several new records were established. Trading was broad but ftful, with intervals of dullness dur ing the intermediate and later stages. Price movements were frequently so confusing as to indicate buying and selling of conflicting character Sem timent among the professional element seemed to favor lower prices, except in coppers, which again furnished the list with most of it's stability.
 The motors. equipments and indus trials of varid descriptions were lower by to points, and central leather made further extreme decline of S3s points from it's recent meteroic rise. Shipping shares, Atlantic, Gulf and West Indies excepted, were lower with investment rails and United States Steel lost points on the usual heavy offerings.
 Republic Iron and the several issues of the Gulf States Steel company were prominent for their advances of 4 to 10 points. all at record quotations, as also were Utah and Ray coppers, At lantie. Gulf and West Indies and sew eral of the paper graup.
 These gains were largely or wholly forfeited in the more reactionary ten dencies manifested in the last half hour, when fresh selling of mercurial speciaTties was induced by familiar peace reports. Unsettlment marked the feverish close, most leaders being then at or near minimum prices of the ses- sion. Total sales, with steel and cop pers again preponderant, amounted to 1,525,000 shares.
 Technical, rather than actual con- ditions, initiated against the bull ac- count, fundamentals being even more favorable than at last weeks close. One of the largest of the copper producing companies increased it's dividend dis bursement by 100 per cent and it is well night certain that rails and other fabricated steel and iron are in pro cess of further upward revision.
 Last weeks enormous expansion of local loans failed of reflection in the money market, but was the occasion of much comment, even though speedy reaction is expected
 Bonds were irregular with total sales, par value, of s4,2S0,0 900.

UNSETTLED CLOSE OF WHEAT MARKET
Phenomenal Rise Gives Way to Anxiety of Holders to
 Secure Profits

Chicago, November Knowing to an in- crease of the United States visible sup ply total wheat today after surpassing the highest prices attained in many years closed unsettled at $1, 1,s91s611. .S99s for De- cember and $1.94l4 for May, with the mar ket as whole varying from 9sc decline to an advance of Pc as compared with Saturdays finish. Corn gained 17sn4asc and oats 1ssG11se. Provisions showed a setback of to BOG.
 Export demand accompanied by bullish advices from Liverpool and Argentina gave decided strength to the wheat mar ket until chanee9 disappeared that there would be an immediate curtailment of the domestic visible supply figures. Liv- erpool had sent word that arrivals in Great Britain were much under the re- quirements of the trade and that stocks were falling off In volume. Drouth, frost and locusts were reported as continuing to damage the Argentine crop and the bears were further handicapped by the smallness of receipts at primary domestic terminals, especially in the northwest The more that prices here advanced, however, buying power seemed to dimin- ish and holders displayed greater anxiety to secure profits.
 Unloading by owners of wheat during the last part of the session was accel- erated by assertions that Argentine flour was being offered at $1.50 barrel cheaper than flour manufactured in the United States Suggestions of possible larger imports Of wheat from Australia at San Francisco and from Argentina at Gal weston counted also against the bulls as trading came to an end.
 Corn rose within 1Ae of s1 a bushel for May and July delivery, almost the goal Which extreme bulls have been predict ing. There were numerous sales over $1 in spot trading with industries buying freely. Crop damage in Argentina did good deal to lift prices and so, too, did a falling off in the stock on hand in Chi cago and leading centers. Oats, like corn and wheat, went to new high rec ord prices, As in the case of the other cereals the Argentina crop situation was decided bulI1sh factor.
 Liberal receipts of hogs through the west had depressing effect on provi- sions. Besides exports for the week were much smaller than a year ago.
