New York Cotton.

New York, Aug. 1.-The govern
ment's crop report was followed by a
sensational advance Of about 81 bale
in the cotton market today. Decem-
ber contracts sold up from 1888 to
1855 within ten or fifteen minutes af-
ter the publication of the bullish crop
figures, making new high record
for that delivery. an advance OF 26
points from last nights closing figures.
The market met a good deal of oppo-
sition at this level. however, the gen
eral list closing easy at a net advance
of only 10 or II points.

FARM pRopucrs 20 YEARS AGO.

In an issue Of The Times last week
under the head OF items of twenty
years ago, reference was made to quo
tations of grain and livestock that pre-
vailed on the local market. Compared
to present prices the figures Of two
decades ago appear pitiful.
The Times quoted wheat in July,
1896. as being worth As cents bushel.
Today the same cereal is selling
around 80 cents. Twenty years ago
the farmer who brought wagon load
Of corn to this city had to be satisfied
with p cents bushel, a price that tos
day probably is viewed as being less
than the cost of production. Tot-ly
corn is selling at about 20 cents a
bushel, or three times the price of
those dark days Of 1896
When we look at the hog quotations
OF twenty years ago, we fancy our
selves partaking of prime breakfast
bacon at values which now are asked
for waste products of the hog, for
porkers were selling on the local mar
ket at the depressing price of $3.50 per
hundred. Today the farmer who
brings a car of fine hogs to this mar
ket gets price right close to 10 cents
pound on the hoof.
While Oklahoma was something Of
cattle country twenty years ago, with
cheap range of extensive area, the cat
tie industry had not reached stage
where fancy animals were produced,
for beeves sold then as low as 2 cents
a pound on the hoof Today a raiser
Of high grade steers expects to get
anywhere from 7 to 10 cents pound
on the hoof for the animals which he
brings to the Oklahoma City stock
yards, and he is not disappointed in
his expectations.
If the present day farmer were fore
ed to consider some of the prices of
his products which prevailed in the
creative stages of Oklahomas develop
ment he would be immeasureably
shocked --Oklahoma City Times.

OLD AND NEW Swimming HOLE
That Of the Present Day Cannot obllt
crate orandfather's Memories Of
His Youth.

Memory goes tracking back through
the years TO the old swimming hole.
This one was on the current side" OF
a great river and the nadir of one of
It's majestic bends. Huge elm and oak
trees grew on the bank aud shaded
waters whose llmpid depths held such
delights as nowhere else have been
experienced. The smooth rock bottom
OF the river was ever washed clean,
while the white sand OF the bit OF
beach along the shore was firm and
grateful 70 the foot. This Ideal spot
was not easy TO access, but the enter
prising youth OF the village found am.
pie recompense In It's joys for any ex,
ertion, even on the hottest day, re-
quiTvd to reach II. Those who swan
there, now grown gray, look at the
homes that have invaded their happy
land with some thoughts of sorrow.
The old swimming hole is only
cherished memory, remarks the Omaha
Bee. Its wonderful freedom, in all
ways appreciated by a healthy boy,
is contrasted with the modern swim
ming hole, provided by a great city
mindful OF the needs OF It's growing
citizens. In this case 1t is a huge
tank, set on the slope Of one of the |
fine hills in a city park, surrounded |
by beautiful trees, a well kept lawn,
and provided with all the ap.
purtenances needful to the complete
enjoyment Of the boldest swimmer OF
most graceful or daring diver. II is a
wonderful pool and the shouts of glee
that come up from its surface these
hot evenings testify most forcefully
to the appreciation of old and young
of privilege.
The new swimming hole is typical
Of the newer life Into which the race
is merging its existence, the urban
rather than the rural. 1t is a regular
step in the orderly progress of mans
evolution, but its well appointed and
equally regulated delights will never
take the place Of that splendid swim
ming hole nature provided for the use
1f boys, many Of whom are now grand
fathers.

Interesting instrument.

When a German aeroplane on recon-
nalssance duty over the French lines
was recently brought down by the al
lies, an aerial camera of an odd type
was recovered intact. The instrument
is described with illustration, in the
Popular Mechanics magazine. It
proved to be a splendid instrument
and has attracted much interest
among members of the flying corps.
At the rear of the case a handle and
trigger like those of a revolver are
provided, the latter being used to op-
crate the shutter. 1t weighs about
twelve pounds and has an additional
handle near the front end so that it
can be held with two hands when in
use. The lenses are in universal focus
and tests have shown that faultless
can be obtained with the
instrument at heights varying from
100 to 1,S00 yards.

Importance Of M.

An artist should consider facts about
the masters Of his profession calmly
and thOughtfully. He may reach valu.
able conclusions about himself. A GER
tain musical composer of much talent
we will call him Smlthkins-has a
happy appreciation of his own work,
as his friends all know. So highly
does he appreciate the compositions
Of Smithkins that one Of his friends
was much startled the other day when
he said gravely:

of all the great composers begin with
'M'?"

hearer.
