to stem rot, whereas most of the other commercial varieties are more or less resistant. On the other hand, the Yellow and Big Stem Jerseys, which are dry and mealy when cook. ed, suit the northern consumer and are the varieties commonly sold to him. However, the markets of the Central West and West will take the semi-moist varieties such as Nancy Hall and Dooley, if they are prop erly graded and packed
 The highest price paid for carload lots of sweet potatoes on the Chi cago market in two successive sea sons was for southern grown Nancy Hall. In the South, moist fleshed potato is preferred. A knowledge of such facts is essential to profitable marketing of the crop, but at the present time most producers, espe- cially in the South, grow a number of different varieties in the same field and store them niscellaneously together. The result is unprofitable confusion.
 Even as it is, sweet potatoes are, in point of value, the second most important truck crop in the United States, being exceeded only by lrisn potatoes. The production, however, can be increased almost indefinitely for there are millions of acres of cheap cut-over lands in the South we'll adapted to the crop. By adopt ing the improvements suggested the demand can be increased proportion ately, for an attractive product can then be placed on the market throughout the year, instead of is. short season only, as is now the case in many sections.
 It must be remembered, too, that the value of sweet potatoes as fee for live stock is not yet generally understood. Three to- four bushels are equivalent to bushel of corn for hogs and in connection with rice concentrates, the potatoes are good feed for cattle. On light soils that produce from 20 to 25 bushels ,,f corn, the same care and attention will return 100 to 2004 bushels of sweet potatoes. Finally, it is not unlikely that by artificial drying product may be obtained which will keep as long as is desired and, be- cause of it's reduced bulk, may be shipped long distances at compar- atively low cost. Government ex- periments along this line, however, have not been carried far enough yet to recommend drying on a commer- cial scale.

New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, May 16.--Better ca bles than due caused moderate buy fng around the opening of the cotton market here today on which prices went 4 70 6 points above yesterdays close. The buying did not last long and soon after the call prices easel off, apparently on a favorable view of the weather conditions over the belt At the end of the first hour of trading prices were to points un der yesterdays finish.
 The market did somewhat better toward the time for receiving the weekly crop accounts from the gov ernment and when they turned out ever more favorable than expected in their mention of the effect on the crop of the abnormallv cool meather of the last week prices stiffened. Toward noon the active months wer, to 10 points over yesterdays last quotations.
 Shorts were inclined to cover in the afternoon and the demand they created sustained the improvement in values. At 1:30, the active months were at a net rise of II to 12 points.
 The cotton market closed very steady

New York Cotton.

New York, May 16-The cotton market opened steady at an advance of to l5 points today with near months relatively firm in response to firm cables and a more optimistic view of the submarine situation. There also seemed to be some scat . tered buying on expectations that weekly report of tho weather buseau al midday would mention unseason- ably low temperatures as an unfov- orable influence on the crop. With the map showing higher temperature ; this morning and with the forecast ronting to generally warmer weather the opening advance met considera ble cotton however, and prices easc1 off after thc call. July sold off from 19.S7c to 19.72c and October from 19.25c to 19.20c or about 3 to ' points net lower. Private cables said limited offerings had been ab- sorhed hy continual buying in Liv- erpocl and that the market showed q steadier tone on unfavorable crop reports from the Mississippi vailed.
 Trading continued very quiet later and the market showed little feature until after the publication of tho weekly weather bureau report. This evidently made bullish impression on sentiment and there was flnrrv of covering or fresh buying which sent prices about , to points net higher with July sellinG at 19.Sic and October at 19.2Gc, shortly after mid day.
 The demand inspired by bullish features in the weekly weather re- port was on supplies and the market became very quiet during the middle of the afternoon with prices sagging back to about last nights closing fig ures under realizing.

SWEET POTATOES MUCH NEGLECTED
 AS FOOD SUPPLY
Department of Agriculture Experts Explain Why
 Crop Is Valuable.

Sweet potatoes can te made an i'm portant and cheap source of food say specialists in the United States department of agriculture. It is quite easy to increase the acreage enormously and the adoption of bet ter methods of handling and storing would improve the product to such an extent that the demand would be greatly stimulated.
 Storing sweet potatoes has always been more difficult problem than producing them. A large part of tho southern crop is kept in pits ana banks, with the result that probably thirty per cent of the potatoes decay and even those which are fit to put Moreover, the pits and banks cannot be opened during wet or rainy wea- ther without risk of injuring all tn,
 3.jock )in them, so tha! it is not un- common for growers to be unable, because of weather conditions, to get their potatoes at the time that the market demand for them is greatest.
 These difficulties can be done away with to great extent by the use of sweet potato storage houses, the management and construction If which are discussed in detail Ill Farmers Bulletin 548 of the Depart ment of Agriculture. Records cover- ing the storage in such buildings of 22S,31S bushels of potatoes for an average period of 124 days show th,. average decay to be only 2.45 per cent. If they were to be adopted generally by growers in the South it is estimated that at least ten mill lion dollars would be added to the value of the crop each year.
 The sweet potato is, however, like practically all other crops, subject to disease in the field as we'll as 70 decay in storage. Black rot, scurf and soft rot are found wherever tle crop is grown. Stem rot and othe. diseases of minor importance are se- were only in isolated centers and, with the exception of root rot, all the diseases do more damage in the North, where the crop is grown ex- tensively, than in the south. In the North the loss from diseases is es- timated at from ten to forty per cent of the annual crop: in the South, storage diseases, at from ten to twenty per cent.
 Partly because of the difference in their ability to resist disease and partly because of market demands. more attention should be paid to the variety of sweet potato grown. For example, Yellow Jerseys, Big Stem Jerseys, Nancy Halls and Early Car olinas are particularly susceptible

REPORTS OF MARKETS COTTON-GRAIN-LIVESTOCK.

Under the emergency regulations in force, inc only possible buyers would have to be shorts but the demand from this source seemed to have suffered either through sufficient purchases or because of belief that values would go still lower. Hardly as many as a score Of brokers were in the pit and the aggregate of trad ing seemed less than fraction of one per cent of the total volume of business ordinarily transacted. open ing prices which ranged from Pc to 15c lower, with July al $2.35 to $24o and September at $2.06 to $2.13, were followed by setbacks respectively to $2.25 and $2.02, with only transient intervening rallies of to ? cents
 Before the first hour of the session ended, September wheat broke still further, smashing below $200 and selling at $1.9S an overnight fall of 23 cents bushel.
 July tumbled even further than September until it touched $21S, the loss of 24 cents. Fear of govern ment action in fixing permanent legal maximum price was said to be to some extent bearish influence and so too, was ideal weather fcr ' growing crops. One of th 'a. sest elevator companies, however, ab- sorbed the offerings at the extreme low point and caused q decided re- bound in quotations. The close was firm at sc to 14c net decline with July at $2.30 and September at $2.07.
 Corn and oats dropped with wheat. The warm weather favorable to crop development tended also to increase bearish sentiment. Corn after open ing 1-4c to 1 5-Sc decline, descended 2 cents or more under yesterdays finish.
 Subsequent upturns in the corn market took place when the market developed some sympathy with wheat. The close was nervous at Setback of 3-4c net.
 Oats meanwhile fell about cents. Trade in both corn and oats was of moderate proportions.

Chicago, Oct. 15.-Fine weather for

today on corn prices. Shorts. how

about something Of a rally. An
nouncements later that current prices
OF corn meal would be reduced by the
food administration tended to dis
courage the bulls. Opening quota
tons. which ranged from 1-8 to ga

by a moderate transient upturn.
Oats showed considerable strength
despite the relative weakness of corn.
