Stock Crowd Sets Off to Good Start

and demand puts S0-cent quotation on it now, it certainly will be worth as much another season. If the war should end in a month, there would be de- mand for cotton which could not be supplied. With the many pests to com bat. high cost of fertilizers, labor at S2 per day instead of SIP per month as of yore, the southern planter will insist on what is right; otherwise he will raise hogs and make more than he can with octton. Or perhaps it would be wise to plant caster oil beans. Uncle Sam says heswill pay s a bushel for them. Anything to keep the manipu- lators from waxing fat on the south's old time money crop" But no more, The farmer can sell fat hog in July for ash. but not cotton. Likewise with poltry, butter an eggs.

Sugar Market

New York, January S1.-The market for raw sugar was unchanged at 4ssSc for Cubas. cost and freight, equal to 6Uo5c for centrifugal. The fact that freight room has been engaged for consider able amount of sugar to be shipped dur Ing the coming month has created lit tie more optimistic feeling in the trade. although as yet sales through the com mittee have not been materially en- larged Today there were sales of 4o,jco Porto Rico and 350o bags of San Do- mingos.

the strength of March. which in the early trading made the widest advances and in the afternoon refused to go to a ne- decline.
 Soon after the opening call the market commenced to improve and the upward movement lasted until the active months were Il to 29 points over yesterdays close The down swing of the afternoon sent the market to 21 points under yes- terdays final prices, except on March. which at its lowest was net unchanged. It is very plain that the market would do better with a continuation of favor able political news, but until the fear of legislation Is removed, it Is likely that no very wide price change will occur. We do not see how. under prevailing circunl- stances. permanent decline can come about.
 Last prices for the day were points higher to 12 points lower than yester. days closing.-Shepard t Gluck.

With flying start. Wall street trad CTS never wavered during the days transactions. President Wilson's conl- ment on the duration of the war stimu- lated the market during the midses- sion. Rails and industrials supplement- ed their gains of the morning, and the general list moved to higher levels. Steels, motors and specialties led the list to higher levels in the final hour. The closing was nuoyant. Liberty Sks at s7.2o, and second 4s at 9576 regis tered lowest records, but rallied before the close First As sold at 9s.s0 e ss.50,
 More talk of government price-fixing broke early advances in cotton. But as a whole the general list closed points higher to 13 points lower. It begins to look like the big jugglers of the stale are looking for government control of prices. If the price is fixed, 1t had bet ter be high one, something around soc. as now ruling, for if the supply

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, January 31.-(special) The market passed through several phases today, closing without material change from yesterday. From this It would appear that the various reports of internal disturbances in Germany. which furnished the basis of the up- ward movement of the morning. fol- lowed by paragraph in the speech of President Wilson to the farmers on the subject of price fixing. which brought about the weakness of the afternoon. wore neither of such vital importance to the trade as to create new clements which would permanently affect values. On the whole the steadiness of tho market showed that the local traders were disposed to consider the heavy selling of yesterday by a Wall street house as of a speculative character and would probably be bought back on any developments favorable to the market.

I was pleased to see the federal food board put a limit on cold storage eggs. This quality of the hens output has been climbing too high. No matter how full of patriotism one may be. he hates to pay 7 cents for eggs that have been packed on ice six or eight months. and then find from two to four of the dozen beyond control at breakfast time. when they are broken open. The board has gwen the farmer a. fair shake at the game alsos placing the wholesale price on country eggs 67qSSc and the retail 75GS0c. Cold storage eggs are quoted at 54Q55c, wholesale. and 60G65c retail. Here is hoping that Old Betty will do her best this spring for her countryl Business on the avenue was good, the sunshine putting new life with every body and everything.

A SHORT TALE.

a prominent business man, who
values his time at so much per Sec
sond, has a maltese cat in his store,
of which he is very fond. One day
while holding the door open for the
cat to 20 out it struck him that half
of his time was lost in waiting for
the tail to pass through; he then got
down. to figures with the following
result: He opened that door at
{ least ten times day either to let
the cat in or out; it took one minute
each time, and with three hundred
working days in the year, he figured
he had stood with door knob in his
hand fifty hours each year - five
whole working days. He immediate
" ordered the cats tail to be chopped
off, and now opens the door and slams
it in a jiffy without danger of hurt
ing the cat and with little loss of
time to himself.
Another instance of his wisdom is
that when he wants any Office stat
ionery he doesn't spend his time or
that of his clerks trying to see where
he could save a dollar. He simply
sends his work to the Office of the
Press and Banner and he knows he
will get the work promptly, and at
the right price.
