Opening Slightly Irregular.

United States Steel was again the
sensational feature of today's slightly
irregular opening, initial dealings COM
prising one block of $4,000 shares at
Hay to lis. new record.
New high prices also were made by
Anaconda and Utah Coppers and Gem
trail Leather, in all of which trading
was extensive.
Other strong features included In
ternational Nickel, National Lead,
Baldwin Locomotive, Maxwell Motors,
Crucible Steel and Colorado Fuel.
New York Central and New Haven

steel Common Feature of the Week.
The week in the stock market was
characterized by a continuance Of the
active operations which marked the
preceding fortnight, daily dealings
ranging from 100000 to 100000
shares. the larger total being attained
in yesterdays feverish session.
United States Steel was the conspic-
uous feature throughout, advancing to
114% on a demand that seemed almost
Unsuitable. This weeks high quotation
represents a new record and shows a
gain of about seven points since last
Saturday.
Prices never before attained were
reached by the leading coppers, includ-
ing naconda, Utah and Inspiration,
while Central Leather and Stutz Motor
achieved similar distinction. Over two
score of steel and iron stocks, equip
ments. sugars and issues of no definite
character sold at best prices of the
year.
Rails Show More Strength.
Rails were stronger and unusually
prominent at times. but proved more
susceptible to profit-taking or profess
sional pressure. Union Pacific rose to
14s7, its highest price since the out
break of the war, and other leaders of
that division improved materially.
If any doubt existed as to the extent
of the public interest in the market, it
would be dispelled by the reports of
commission houses and other broker
age firms with interior connections.
Boston has been active in coppers, and
the ihlduie west ana soutH"est nave
furnished much of the impetus to in
dustrials.
General conditions, domestic and for
eign. seemed to play no part in the
affairs of the speculative factions.
There was a noticeable spread of bear
ish influence at times, but every fresh
rise was the signal for another scram-
BILE to cover short contracts. Monetary
conditions continue to reflect the great
est ease and the weekly statements Of
banks and other financial institutions
offer absolute assurance of the main
tenance of high pressure in all lines Of
trade and industry.

CARTER COUNTY HAS
SOME FINE SHEEP

The secretary of the county fair as.
sociation stated today that people
are going to be agreeably surprised
when they witness the display of
sheep which will be entered in COM
petition at the county fair this fall.
Especial mention was made of the
fine herds of Olin Wolverton which
took first prize at the state fair last
fall, and the herd of J. ]. Eaves,
at Pooleville. These together with
many other farmers in the county,
have been paying particular atten-
ton to sheep breeding for the past
few years, with the result that there
are several fine herds in the county
and the pick of these have already
been entered for exhibition here in
September.
The affairs Of the county fair as
sociation are in good shape and as
soon as the lumber from the taber-
nacle can be secured work on the
buildings at the fair grounds will
begin.

MOON GAZING PARTIES CAN
SEE PARTIAL ECLIPSE TONIGHT

Washington, July 14.-This even
ing the people of this continent will
have an opportunity to see another
partial eclipse of the moon. Very
fortunately this eclipse will take place
at a more convenient hour than did
the one of January 19 last, and, fur
thermore. the amount OF the moons
disk to be darkened will this time
be much greater. The moon will
enter the penumbral shadow about IS
minutes after o'clock this evening:
but as this partial shadow contains
a great deal of light no darkening
of the moons limb will be really per-
ceptible until the moon actually en-
ters the completely dark shadow
which will be about 1913. The middle
of the eclipse will occur at 11:46,

THE DAILY ARDMOREITE

all southern farm products, exclusive
of cotton, was $3.50, 900 in 1915,
or nearly four times the value of the
cotton crop"
Cattle, hogs, and live stock of every
kind, were shown to be in a most
prosperous condition and, many facts
adduced to prove that the South Of
fers superior advantages in live
stock, especially cattle and hogs.
Senator Ransdell stated that with the
eradication of the cattle tick that is
being stamped out under government
supervision, the south will become
the livestock center of the nation.
A wonderful showing was made for
minerals. Until very recently, the
mind of the inquirer about the south
reverted almost entirely to raw cot
ton, but last year the mineral out
put was valued at about $500,000,00
crop, and in many of the more i'm
portant minerals the south leads the
nation. OF the 81 useful minerals
mined in the United States every
one is produced in the south except
boraX and platinum, and to make up
for these two not produced, nine,
phosphate, bauxite, mangan-
ese, sulphur, mozonite, zircon, barite,
fuller's EARTH and nearly all the mica
and pyrite are produced nowhere out
side the south. The south is indeed
a mineral empire.
I'm Is years the number of south
ern banks quadrupled while their
deposits increased from about three
quarters of a billion to nearly three
billions. These figures show that the
south now has banking resources as
great as the entire country had as
late as 1884"
Referring to the Southern Com |
mercial Congress, organized in 1908, |
to make the south known, he said:
This organization has done a noble |
and patriotic work, which is of in
benefit not only to the |
south, but to the nation, justifying
It's slogan-"A Greater Nation |
a Greater South" One of its |
principal achievements was its pi-
oneering and championship of the
for system of rural cred |
It's, which has just eliminated in the |
passage of the federal farm-oan act.
This is one of the most important |
measures ever enacted by congress,
since it establishes a financial sys
.em which will meet the needs of
agriculture
Senator Ransdell extended an invi-
,ation to labor and capital to come
nto the south. He said; 81 cordial
y invite capital and labor in every
)ranch of human endeavor to invest
n Dixie and become citizens of that
avored country. We will gladly wei
'ome all who wish to come-millions
If them-for the south needs 5O,OO0.-

Washington, d. c., July 14.-"The
Lure of the Southland" was the
the United States recently by Sena-
tor Joseph +. Ransdell, of Louisiana,
in discussing the agricultural bill,
now pending Senator Ransdell is
president of the national rivers and
harbors congress, member of the
Southern Commercial Congress and
is an authority on facts concerning
the resources and opportunities of
the south. He has endeavored to
have the south know itself. and to
have the south known.
In the address he brought out
forcibly the rapid growth of urban as
compared with rural population, de
claring it to be a serious menace, as
the consumers are increasing very
much more rapidly than the pro
ducers. He also shows that the Uni
ted States is losing in emigration to
Canada about 10000 of people per
year, who is carrying with them an
estimated wealth of $120,000,000
The remedy suggested for the cure of
these evils is emigration to the south
''Is the south a healthy place to
live?' he asked. Answering affirma-
lively, he gave a forcerul exposition
of climatic and health conditions,
which show that taking the entire
year, one can enjoy more physical
comfort in the south than in any
other part of the country under con
ditlons of health certainly as good as
in any other section. He declared |
that meteorological maps and records
demonstrate that combination with a
greater average annual rainfall and
in combination with a greater variety
of soils than any other part of the
United States
The south has been regarded as a
purely agricultural country, devoted
mainly to cotton. Both ideas are
shown to be fallacious by interesting
statistics proving that the maufactur-
ars of the south, aggregating i bbil-
ions in 1915, exceeded by over 400
million dollars the entire output of
agriculture in all its branches. Cot
ION was shown to have a value of
$50 million dollars last year, while
