Over Campbell & Co.'S Wire

New Orleans, September 20.-Heavy rains in the belt and threatened cold weather and frosts after the moisture, put the price of cotton up strong today, the market showing less concern over the fight in Washington to control the price,. According to the official returns, precipitation was felt in all sections or the cotton region and on the map was seen an intense wave which has already caused temperatures below freezing in the middle west. As it works across the country and sweeps the cotton belt there will be a lowering of temperatures in all sections with light frosts probable as a result in Tennessee and portions of the Carolinas. Georgia, Alabama and Missis- sippi, and also possibly in parts of Okla homa and Arkansas.
 Advances were scored on the opening and the market was kept at the rise until the trading months were 70 to 75 points over the close of yesterday. In the after noon less strength was displayed ana prices fell of until they were at a net advance of about F cent a pound.
 The only new development in the price fixing situation. if new development 1t can be called, was the deciison of the cot ton market to fight the matter out in Washington and to that end a representa- Ptive from here leaves for Washington to- night Dispatches today from Washing ton disputed the story of yesterday that southern congressman had accepted their defeats at the hands of Chairman Baruch of the war industries board. The imme- diate future of the market is uncertain.- Shepard & Gluck.

Transformation Scene Takes Place
 In Stock Trading Over Previous Day
By JOHN .. MOSES

ern and western belts, to be followed by light frosts in some sections, caused an upward trend in the cotton market yesterday. The general list closed steady at a net advance of 2s to 40 points.
 Trading was quiet during the early afternoon and there was enough realiz- ing to cause reactions of some b to 20 points from the best. The tone how ever. was steady with october holding at about 3295 and January S227 or about 53 to 6T points net higher. Private re- ports place condition figures at 555.s
 That most of the corn crop is safe, re- gardless of frosts, was the opinion Of the Chicago grain pits yesterday. As result, there was sharp slump in quo tations. Oats closed ssc off to 1sc ad- vance. Provisions ranged from 2Qc de- clineto 5c rise.

Improvement was noted in both toTfe and prices in stock trading yesterday. It was complete transformation of the previous session. Stock prices were well maintained in the early afrernoon. Chief interest eentered in steady drop in Liberty Bond quotations, holders selling presumably to prepare for subscriptions to the forthcoming loan. The buying power diminished in the final hour and traders were disposed to take profits on a small scale. Recessions were confined to slight fractions, The closing was firm. Final prices on Liberty Bonds today were s1zs, 100.20; first convertible ts. s624; second As. 95.56; first convertible 4As. 96.2S second convertible 4hs, 95S2; third 4As, 96,

Forney School Working
Hard on War Drives

A splendid record is that achieved
by Forney school, judging from this
weeks report. Pupils there now own
$50 baby bonds, which is an average
of one for every two pupils in the
building. Not only is thrift being eX-
ercised so widely, but teachers and
pupils making every effort to keep
Forney at the high standard it set
in being the first school to finish and
turn into the Red Cross a convalescent
robe. The institution is now busy on
more of these, and has made forty
two pairs of boots.
The past week witnessed great en-
thusiasm in the war garden drive. ].
