Solid Seasoned Dividend Payers
 Neglected On the Bargain Counter
By c. F. AVERY

A Etl
 [ when things were cheap and selling out before they reached the top" Is there anything mysterious about that?
 All of the above is apropos to the present situation in railroad securitiea The highest grade of seasoned diyi- dend paying stocks are absolutely go- ing a begging at prices that will net the purchaser from 9 to per cent more than the average dividends for years. Never before has there been such ef- ficiency in railroad management.
 The war board states that: Freight of all kinds is now moving in unex- ampled volume" Coal roads handled in July 207,4 ,42s more loaded cars than in 1916, an increase of s1.5 per cent" There was an increase in July of 28.2 per cent in the number of tons of freight handled one mile" Though the elinn- ination of unnecessary and competing passenger trains \20, ,000,0 ,00O of train service per year has been saved" so on ad minimum. And no one will touch the securities of the roads making such records for earnings, simply because they are cheap.

New Orleans Cottan

New Orleans, September 28.-The cotton market here was unsettled today, the trade not knowing what to make of the erratio actions of the hurricane raging about the gulf coast Trading was light and price changes narrow. Late in the session the trend was downward under liquidation and the close showed net losses of to 12 poitns.
 Around the opening there was rise of to points on the fear that the storm was going to bore into the center Of the cotton belt. The upward movement was not long sustained and was succeeded by drop to level Il to F points un- der yesterdays close
 Selling out by longs seemed to be the reason for this. Later forecasts, in- dicating the hurricane would strike the east gulf coast, caused renewed buying on the probability that 1t would sweep over the Atlantics, which have suffered damage in the last few days from exces- stve rains. On this upturn the market went to 10 points above yesterdays close Little buying power was displayed after the middle of the day

Pr1ces closed heavy, 2}s Q2Ac net lower at $1.t7h 9L17M for December and SL14% @l.14M May. Oats finished x Q ic off to 1c up. Provisions showed a setback varying from to 50 cents.
 Lowest prices of the day in the corn pit came just before the end of the session and followed reports that the assistant Secretary of Agriculture de- clared the United States this season has surpassed all previous achieve ments in the amount of corn which had been raised. Other bearish fac tors gave the market a downward slant from the outset and rendered any important rally difficult. Disfavor which talk of removing the maximum price limit has encountered did a good deal to handicap the bulls and so. too. oid peace gossip and the absence of signs that there had been serious dam age from frost. Besides, there were forecasts of prolonged period of mild temperature throughout the corn belt.
 Crgent seaboard demand. together With month-end adjustment of trades. put strength into the September de- hvery or oats. Other options weakened with corn.
 Packers selling carried down provi. sion and was offset only in mart hv large commission house buying. The unloading was ascribed to the weak ness or grain. Continued scarcity of hogs failed to check sellers.
 future quotations were as follows.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-09-29


 It has always been a mystery to me why the average man always makes such mess of 1t when he steps into the realm of stock speculation or in- vestment of most any character in se curities. If he was buying house and lot. he would take care to examine the title, get an abstract of the same to show him what liens were against the property. he would inquire as to values surrounding the same, what the prop erty was insured for, what the rental return would be, etc. But let him set out to buy securities, he commences to mill around looking for some one to tout" him on to good thing" where he can get rich over night. All business precautions like the above are forgo,. ten. Speculation does not consist of crystal gazing, second sight or any thing that approaches the occult, and the application of simple business prin- ciples is all that is necessary. Lord Rothchild, when asked how he made his great fortune, replied: By buying
