A Card to Owners =
of Rural Telephone Lines

We are anxious TO see that all lines owned by
other parties and connected with kept in such
condition as to furnish efficient service. Where the
owners of rural lines responsible for their upkeep,
we want to cooperate with them.
ALI lines require thorough overearling occa-
sionally if the best service is to be obtained. We
recommend that every line connected with us be
overhauled at least year. and that at least one
experienced telephone assist in this work. The
cost of this work when divided among all the patrons
of the line, makes the amount paid by each man
small, and this cost will be more than Offset by the
improved service. !
If the owners of rural telephone lines In this sec.
ton are experiencing trouble with their service, we
will appreciate their talking the matter over with our
Manager or writing us fully. We will gladly do
what we can toward helping you improve the con-
dition of your line

Markets
NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

New Orleans, Sept. IA strong
bulge opened today's trading in cot
ton on this market, all months MAX
ing the usual almost daily advance
to new high levels for the season.
Gables were sensationally good and
brokers had a large colume of over
night buying orders to fill. October,
had not yet traded up to 16 cents,
shot over that level to 1923, gaining
80 points. Over active months gained
II to 10 points.
A wave of profit-taking, stimulat-
ed by the high prices and the triple
holidays to follow today's close, met
the Improvement and a reaction re-
suited quickly wiped out the advance
and put the market, at the end of the
first half hour of business, five points
under yesterdays close.
The official report of general rains
over Oklahoma and of scattered show
ers in Texas increased the selling and
the market fell to a level "a to 81
points under yesterdays last quota
lions in the trading up to noon.
In the early afternoon, liquidation
was still pressing on the market and
the decline was widened to 27 to %
points on the most active months. At
1:30 the tone was quiet but steady
and prices were 10 points up from
the bottom.
Spot cotton closed steady and I'M

arrive, none.

NEW YORK COTTON.

New York, Sept. IA renewal of
yesterdays buying movement was en-
couraged by sensational advance in
Liverpool today and the cotton mar
ket here opened at an advance of 6
to II points with all positions making
new high records. A greater response
to the strength abroad was prevented
by heavy general realizing and the
market became rather nervous and
unsettled right after the call There
was evidently disposition to take
profits on long cotton for over the
three day adjournment, while there
may also have been some selling on
the improved weather in the south
west and prices reacted several points
during the early trading, with Oc-
tober selling off from 1850 to 1926,
and January from 1913 to 1886.
Offerings became heavier following
the publications of detailed weather
reports showing good rains in Texas
and Oklahoma, and rumors of an cas-
Ter spot basis in Texas. October con-
tracts sold off to 1906, while the re-
action carried December off to 1910
and January to 1914, or about 20 to
"a points net lower around midday.
Trading was less active during the
early afternoon and fluctuations were
irregular with December contracts
ruling around 1910, or 20 points net
lower.
Spot cotton, quiet; middling up
lands, 1880; no sales.
