New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, July 2.-Cotton devel oped marked weakness on this mar ket today, partly because the govern ment put the condition of the crop at Ia higher percentage than expected, and and partly because of the action of the Senate in adding cotton to the food control bill. From the highest to the lowest levels there was drop of 13s to 167 points on the active
 months. Last prices were 95 to 105 points under the final. figures of Sat urday.
 Around the opening the market
 stood 45 to AS points up on expecta-
 tions of bullish bureau reports from
 the government, but at 10 o'clock, when the figures were received here, prices were only 10 points up. There was an immediate drop of 76 points on the most active months following the reading of the statistics. but around the middle of the day the mar ket made strong recovery back to slightly above the level of Saturdays close, only to meet fresh selling wave on the Washington reports.
 While the acreage returns, showing a decrease of per cent compared to last year. about met conservative bull ish opinion, the condition of nearly a point higher than last months con- dition was a surprise, as the trade generally expected a falling off of at least a point or two.

ANNISTON

Anniston, July 2.--(Special.l l-.Ac- cording to the best estimates obtain able, the cotton acreage in the An niston district has been reduced this year by about 15 per cent. and the plant is now about two weeks late, owing to the cool weather in May and June and the periods of drouth. Rains during the latter part of June, how ever, had a very beneficial effect, and the first blooms were reported at An niston last week The labor supply in this section this year will be worse than ever before. Many negroes have come in from the country to take the places of those who have left local industries to go north. and despite the insistence of the government that farmers are not wanted for the army, quite a number of young men from this section have enlisted. The first boil weevils of the year were report ed from McFall last Saturday and while 1t is not anticipated that the pest will do any great harm here this year it is believed that cotton plant ing next year will be much more haz- ardous

WOMEN SEW FOR SOLDIERS

l The men of the First cavalry, who
 are stationed at Camp Steiner, had a unique experience last Friday evening,
 when eight kind-hearted and motherly
 ladies, anxious to do something for the
 boys in khaki, went out to the camp
 and said they wanted to patch the boys clothes'
 Col. Bibb Graves was at the camp
 and at the time told the ladies that the
 men were not accustomed to such kind
 ness, but the ladies exhibited their needles and thread, scissors and an as-
 sortment of patches and said they were
 going to work.
 The soldiers were at first little lembarassed. but soen were chatting
 with the ladies and confding in them. while watching the delft fingers sew
 on buttons, mend rents and darn socks.
 l Not satisfied with mendinE great pile of garments, the ladies gave the 1 boys lesson in patching, and before
 they left the camp had every man there ] in love with them for their motherly attention.
