Utica Dairy Board
Closes for Season

UTICA. y. y, Nov. 12.-With the
sale Of 900 boxes of cheese at 20i2
cents to-day the Utica Dairy Board Of
Trade closed for the season. Il was
record season for prices. with total
of $4,000 boxes, or 3,78O,00J pounds,
OF cheese changing hands, at value
Of Ss49.l0i.
From the opening on April % until
May q the range OF quotations was
from 25iz to 26ii cents. or from )
TO cents higher than had ever before
been paid, although the cheese offered
was fodder-made. Stocks were COM
paratiyely low. production was below
the normal and the demand, partic-
ularly for export, was good. At the
closing price this year there was no
profit in full cream cheese making
because OF the high cost Of milk. Only
those factory men who turned their
milk into skim cheese and butter got
any margin out of their business. The
make Of the cheese this season has
been considerably less than it was in
1916. so that despite the, high prices
the total value has fallen off. but It
is. with the exception of that last year,
the greatest on record. Butter sold
al 81 cents to-day. The sales of butter
during the season we're 965 tubs. The
opening price was ~ cents, the lowest
was 57A cents, on June IS. Prices all
through the season were considerably
higher than in 1915.

Cotton.

Business in the cotton market was
OF moderate volume yesterday and
prices generally were firm. January
contracts sold up 20 27.40. or $500 per
bale above the closing price OF Satur-
day and back 70 within 8 points OF the
seasons high record. December was
comparatively quiet, but made q new
high record, selling az 2S.05, or just half
a cent above the final quotation of last
week. Closing prices were a few
points of from the best. with the tone
steady az a net decline OF "a 70 43
points. A more cheerful view OF the
Russian situation undoubtedly con-
tributed to the advance, while buying
was also encouraged by frmness IN
Liverpool, continued absence of any
material volume OF hedge selling, and
private crop estimate placing the
yield at 10,73S,000 bales, excluding
llnters.
Private cables indicated that the
strength in Liverpool had been largely
due 20 the difficulty Of importation and
scarcity of ocean freight room. These
are conditions which are delaying the
distribution of the crop and leading 70
accumulation in the interior Appre-
tensions Of weakness in consequence,
however, are modified by the firmness
reported among holders and the alb
sence Of hedge selling. Moreover. 1t
seems 70 be The opinion in some quar-
tiers that foreign importers are buying
cotton on scale commensurate with
their requirements ard storing 1t away
to hold in this county until transpor-
tation is available. There may also
have been feeling around the ring

trail tonnage now tied up in American

American and coastwise trade, releas-
ing other tonnage for use on the trans
Atlantic routes. Exports yesterday
were 1904 bales, making 1877 ,lO6 bales
so far this season. Southern spot
markets as officially reported were un-
changed to 50 points higher. Houston
reported the maximum advance, with
sales of s,434 bales or the basis OF
27.s0 for middling.

Gold Shipment to
Canada Postponed
Exchange on Ottawa I'm
proves With Export of
Metal Possible

A sudden and unexpected resdlust-
ment Of the abnormal exchange situa-
ton existing between this market and
Canada may make it unnecessary for
the shipment TO the Dominion Of the
$4,000, 600 in gold arranged for a fort
night AGO. Bankers with Canadian
connections pointed out yesterday that
the gold would not be needed so long as
exchange on Canada remained at the
level to which it has fallen ir the last
few days.
A fortnight ago exchange on Canada
in this market ruled at 4 premium Of l
per cent, owing to the heavy demand
for remittances 10 Montreal on account
Of Canadian grain bills sold in this
market. The situation seemed so seri-
Gus that delegation Of Canadian
bankers made a special visit to Wash
inston. where conferences we're held
with the Federal Reserve Board and
other financial officials As a result
arrangements were made TO lift the
ban on gold exports long enough to let
about S25.0OO,O0O go forward TO Canada
70 adjust the exchange situation. II
was planned 10 ship the metal from
New York in the course OF the next
few weeks
Since the announcement was made
that gold could be obtained for ship
ment TO Canada the situation has re-
turned practically 90 normal, and Ca
madam exchange. instead Of being
quoted here at premium, has fallen
10 a slight discount. Yesterday the
discount was 1-16 of ! per cent.
Bankers said yesterday they knew OF
no special reason for the change for
the better in the Canadian exchange
situation other than the fact that the
selling Of Canadian grain bills IN the
New York market had slsckened con-
siderably OF late. The opinion was eX-
pressed that perhaps the mere fact
that gold could be obtained here had
been an important sentimental intiu-
ence in the market.
Il was stated, however, that in the
event that exchange again moves in
favor Of Canada, as is not unlikely, the
gold will be shipped.

ReAexes of War

In connection with the building Of
four steamers for the British govern
ment. the Canadian General Electric
president, Senator Nichols, states thai
the British government will be grant.
ed a longtime credit for the full
value Of the vessels. The four steel
freighters will cost the British govern
ment 100000. but this sum will not
have TO be paid to the Canadian Cen
eral Electric for two years. In the
mean time II will be carried as an
ordinary book account and without
any security being required. Il is
pointed out that this action of the Ca
madam General Electric is taHtamount
to straight loan of 100000 TO the
British government. So lar as rs
known, this is the first big Industrial
concern in Canada to come forward and
volunteer to fill British war orders ana
wait a long time for payment Of the
same.

The Habit Of Saving.

The United States is thriftier than ii
is commonly given credit for being be-
cause statistics most frequently quoted
do not give all savings deposits and be-
cause vast deal of savings goes on
outside of savings institutions. Yet it
does not live up to its opportunities By
long way. One Of the country'S
ablest business men said not long ago
that any one could tell whether he was
going to succeed or fail by his ability
to save. If he could not save he could
not succeed. At any rate. inability to
save for man with an income above
the bread line and no unusual i'll luck
implies lack of self control that is
not conducive to success.

matter of habit, and with little de
termina ton to begin with the right
habit is rs easily formed as the wrong
one. Try it.-Saturday Evening Post
