Cotton

Sharp reactions from an early advance
took place in the cotton market on
the report of Russian disturbances.
Subsequently these losses were partly
recovered, the close being steady at a
net advance of 8 to l6 points. May con
tracts sold up from 1886 to 11ol, re-
acted TO 1851 and closed at l7.76. busl-
ness was generally quiet. Liverpool
was credited with buying new crop
months during the early trading, while
trade interests were buyers OF the Ola
crop on the late advance. =,
The market acted as though some OF
Wednesdays selling had been due 70
as TO the showing OF the
census report on supply and dIstrlou-
tion or tn reference to the report on
tonnage sunk during the week ended
March IL. Both these reports seemed
to create rather a more favorable SEN
{ .ment than otherwise. and much OF the
advance during the middle OF the day
was attributed to buying by shorts

mill consumption of 547,2O3 bales for
February was cons dered pretty well up

pointed out that there had been a fair
decrease in the stock of cotton IN spin
ners' hands since the end of December
These features helped the old crop
months. while the new crop was helu
back by better prospects for showers IN

mental and Egyptian buying of new
crop months in Liverpool, but the
Liverpool buying here was attributed
to undoing straddles. The practice OF
exports daily has been dis

Cereals

Wheat-Prices had a sharp rally
during yesterdays operations and at
the close of the day had more than
regained Wednesdays loss for the new
crop months and u good part of the
loss in May. The threatened railroad
strike had tendency to check buying
to some extent, as a general strike at
this time would be most disastrous to
the export movement of grain, but after
decline of TO 10 cents a bushel
during about a week the technical po-
sition was strong and when shorts at
tempted TO cover prices advanced
rapidly.
The principal bullish feature of tn,
day was a revival OF export business
IL was discovered that sales on Wednes
day had been much larger than re-
ported at the time and apparently the
British Commission has again entered
the market and is buying wheat for for
ward shipment.
Total sales for Wednesday and Thurs
day were placed at about "A million
bushels. This included about one mil
lion bushels Of American wheat at Gulf
ports and the fact that Europe was
taking this character of wheat was
looked upon by the bulls as very en-
courag.ng.
Some further complaints regarding
the appearance of the new crop in Kan
sas had a stimulating influence on the
ne. cop months and the trade is be-
ginning to feel anxious lest the new
crop gets a poor start and the extent
of winter killing be above the average
Political developments abroad, espe-
,cially the reports of a revolution in
Russia. were a source Of more or less
uneasiness, although it seemed to be
the prevailing opinion that the develop
ments so far would not materially him
der the nrnpress of the war

closing with net gains Of &c to lc. Shorts

The Argentine news was also bullish, it be
ing stated that leading firm there had made

reported. Argentine shipments for the week
were estimated at $4,000 bushels, against
$4,000 last year.

Oats.-The market for oats was active and
frmer although price changes were confined
within a narrower range than was expert
enced in either wheat or corn. The firm
ness in Winnipeg encouraged more or less
buying, and the Eastern cash position was
firm owing to fears of a railroad strike.

Water Users

Maintenance

The adjourned meeting of the
stockholders of the White Bluffs
Water company was held Tuesday
evening at the school house.
The White Bluffs Land & Irriga.
ton, the largest stakeholder, had
sent in its proxy and there was
therefore, sufficient stock repre-.
sented to constitute quorum. The
land company's proxy was condi.
tional and provided that if approx.
imately all the land under the pro.
ject, other than its own, that wa.
being irrigated would agree to take
water from the plant this year, it
would also stay with the plant for
that length of time, and pay a
maintenance charge up to SIG per
acre for the land it is irrigating,
but that it would not pay mainte-
nance on it's land not being irri-
gated.
Some of the local people present
said they would take water from
the company this year; some said
they would not. if the price ex-
ceeded $40 per acre; others were
undecided and the meeting was f.
nally adjourned to Tuesday even
ing. January 30th.
The only real business transacted
was the reelection Of the old board
of directors, namely:
w. j. Kincaid G. A. Whitney
Jas. Armstrong A. r. Beyers
j. A. johnson
/ Between now and the meeting on
the 30th, the sentiment of the local
people will be ascertained and the
question of the company operating
another season will be settled. The
question is a serious one and is up
to each water user to determine
for himself. The land company
has stated positively that this is the
last season that it will take water
from the present plant, which
means that shis is the last year the
plant will be in operation. 1t will,
therefore, be up to those under the
system to begin looking around now
for some other means of watering
their land next year.
