An advance of nearly $2.50 a bale Tn the futures markets today, the third big rise in as many days, car ried the price of cotton at Conway to IS cents even. The markets show ed evidences of wild excitement, sur passing that of the days of Sully and Brown, the famous bull operators.
 As shown by the table above, giv- ing the price of cotton on the Conway market day by day, the rise from the low point of the season, II l-2 cents on September II, amounts to 3 1-2 cents a pound, or $17.50 per 50O- pound bale
 The price for spot cotton today is the highest since May, 1874, when IS cents was paid for middling upland cotton in Memphis.
 Prices on the New York futures market also touched the highest levels for the whole list of options since the early '70s. In 1910 the Au- gust option touched 20 cents, but this high level was confined to August. Previous to this year the highest price touched by the January and De- cember options since the years i'm mediately following the Civil War was 15.S8 cents, in the season of 1909-1910. December contracts in New York today touched 1879 cents, but there was reaction of about 15 points from the best.
 Very little cotton is being market ed here today, on account of the rain. Should the weather clear this after noon, a big lot will probably be mar keted here tomorrow, as the circus will bring an enormous crowd. It is estimated that over IF, 300 bales have already been marketed here this sea- son.
 Cottonseed also took a jump late yesterday afternoon, when the price was advanced to $50 per ton. Like the price of cotton this figure also shatters all previous records in Con- way.
 At the present prices 1,500 pounds of seed cotton are worth after gin ming, for lint and seed, $l15. Two years ago the same amount would have brought less than $40.

NEW MOTOR CLUB
 TO CLEAN UP ROADS WILL ALSO LOG ROUTES
Recently Formed Organization Plans Much Work for Benefit
 of Motorists.

Little Rock, Oct. 19.-The recently formed Arkansas Association of Mo tor Clubs is already bearing fruit, for general clean up of city streets all over the state has been ordered, and an Arkansas road, one of the principal of the state, will be logged and appear in the 1918 Blue Book for automobile owners.
 The Fort Smith Motor Club is en- titled to the initiative in both cases, but the state organization has become sponsor for them and will see that they are carried out. The Fort Smith organization has an arrange ment by which wagons are sent over the state weekly, picking up all glass, nails and horseshoes. An ac- cessory house is also employed to send out and pick up glass reported anywhere on country road. When the Fort Smith club told of it's activ- ities at a recent meeting in this city, the Little Rock, Hot Springs and other clubs decided to immediately profit by the Fort Smith example and save tires.
 A. K. Albers of the Fort Smith Club has announced that J. M. Ma lang, the pioneer road builder of Joplin, Mo-, had consented to log the highway from Fayetteville to Fort Smith, thence to Little Rock and Hot Springs. The road from Kansas City to Fayetteville has already been log ged and appears in the automobile Blue Book, but no route is shown be- tween Fort Smith and Hot Springs.
 The members of the Arkansas As sociation have agreed to meet Mr Malang at Fayetteville and accom- pany him while on his Arkansas tour The Hot Springs club is now making an effort to get Mr. Malang to con tinue on to Philadelphia and Texar- kama, in order that the route may show in the next issue of the guide for automobilists.
