100000. Between expectations and the
 report itself there was no material diff ference, and the most liberal estimates do not place the commercial crop at over 12.60o000 bales including much trash and bellies, as compared with approxi- mately 100000 last year and the year before. The situation Is unchanged and we believe cotton is capable of rising on it's own merits. We think it will re- spond readily to any encouraging devel- opments in the near future.-Shepard & Gluck.

Poultry Ban Lifted

The Gods OF Chickens turned their
heads away when The United States
Food Administration changed its
mind and lifted the ban against the
killing of poultry week sooner than
had been contemplated.
According to the ruling made in
mid-winter, freshly killed hens could
not be sold between February 20 and
April 80. The amended ruling made
the sale OF hens and young poultry
legal from midnight OF April 10.
Weather conditions which brought
about an early laying and Matching
period are given as the reason for the
change In ruling.
In lifting the restrictions, the Food
Administration appeals to the farmers
not TO begin rushing their hens to
market. but to send them gradually
and thus prevent flooding the market
which will result in heavy spoilage.
