IMPORTANT RED CROSS NOTICE

The Ocala Red Cross Chapter has
just received an urgent appeal from
the government for the conservation
of two metals needed in the prose-
cution of the war. One is a metal
which can be used merely by conserv-
ing heretofore waste products-this
metal is the homely tin which is used
for SO many domestic purposes-the
other is the rarer but equally essen
tial metal of platinum which many
of our members possesses in the
form of jewelry and other articles
that they may be willing TO sacrifice
for their country's netds.
Surely one or the other of these
metals can be collected by the Red
Cross members in our town.
We ask our members and the pub
lis generally to keep for us every bit
of tin foil, every empty tube of salve
or tooth paste, every old pewter toy
or vessel of any sort. TIN is made
from these and we MUST HAVE TIN
TO CARRY ON THE WAR.
Platinum we bave said is more
precious but that. too. many of our
members have. We ask the help of
each patriotic citizen; of every store
using tin in any form; of every per-
son willing and anxious to help win
the war
We cannot use tin cans-they are
tin "in name only"-but WE CAN
AND WILL USE EVERY OTHER
FORM OF TIN. For further infor-
nation apply to w. P. Preer, Chair
man Conservation Committee.
take or send your tin to the Ma
rion Hardware store, or notify Mr..
Preer, and he vii send for it.

Over w. E. Campbelps Wire

New Orleans, May 2.-Lower prices were recorded in cotton here today as the result of selling movement founded on belief that the weather over the belt was about to take turn for the better. While the market at times had dispo- sitiou to recover from depression, it gained real strength, and closing prices were the lowest of the day showing net losses of 7S to S2 points.
 On the opening call near months were 12 to IA points up on buying encouraged hv the continued coool weather in the cotton region. The absence of rain, how ever. and the prediction of generally dry weather over most of the belt together with some warmer temperatures in the west gave the short side confidence. Selling commenced in moderate way and was increased as prices gave ground. The heaviest pressure came In the last few minutes of trading.
 A bearisn influence in the early session was the rumor of new German offen- siye. It added materially to offerings. There were recoveries of about % points at several stages of the session. based on improved spot accounts. Spots were ouoted at 2S.50c for middling. Private reports told of somewhat peter demand and firm attitude by sellers.

WARMER WEATHER SENDS COTTON DOWN
List Goes Off for a Count of 92 to III Points Over
 Previous Day

New York, May 2. Prospects for warmer weather in the south, after the advance of over cents per pound from recent low levels, seemed responsible for q renewal of general selling in the cot ton market After touching 27.05c at the start, July contracts broke and closed at 25.95, with the general list closing barely steady at a net decline of 92 to Ill points.
 The opening was irregular, with July showing an advance of 13 points in re- sponse to relatively firm cables, but later months were unchanged to IA points net lower on prospects of fair and warmer weather in the south. July quickly broke with the rest of the list and by midday the market had sold about 75 to 77 points net lower.
 Rallies of nearly half cent followed on continued reports that the crop had made unsatisfactory progress and that much replanting would be necessary while there was also some trade buying of July and October. This demand was soon supplied, however, and prices broke again later in the afternoon under re- newed general selling. May broke to 26.55c and October to 2.l0c, with the day.
 Except for the improved weather out look, brokers found little in the news to account for the weakness, but said sellers probably expected freer offerings in the south should crop accounts be- come more favorable. A feeling was also reported that the advance from the low level of last Monday Lad been sufficient to ease the technical position and re- cent buyers were said to be reselling.
 A letter from southern senator, claim- ing there was no intention of interfering with legitimate business on the exchange, but deprecating wide daily fluctuations, attracted considerable attention, butt not considered an immediate factor.

New York Futures
New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, May 2.-Renewed selling pressure was put on cotton today and prices responded in a moderately wide way. There is this much to be said, how ever, regarding the effect of strengthened reactional position: The market displays distinctly greater powers of resistance to selling than it has had since the reac-' tion downward commenced, nearly one month ago. As soon as the selling let's up a recovery starts. We also consider that the character of buying which now comes in on the declines is of very strong sort On the opening the near months were F to II up, but the market sagged almost before the opening call was over. Selling increased as the day progressed and the decline finally amounted to 69 to 76 points compared with the close of yesterday. Bearfsh feel ing was mainly based on the hope Of bet ter weather for the cotton region At one time there were rumors of new German offensive, which bearish traders used against values. These rumors proved to be without foundation, and again any thing unfavorable in the war develop ments was completely offset by the steps now being taken in this country to in crease the army, probably to 5,O00,00U men. The lack of much rain in the belt was considered highly favorable by those whe were willing to ignore the low tenn pera lures and the predicted continued cool weather for the Atlantics. We be- lieve that declines from present levels will be only emporary-Shepard x Chuck.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s. Letter

New York, May 2.--Better weather con- ditions throughout the cotton belt were indicated yesterday in the long range forecast of warmer clear days to come. Today the trade thought they could themselves, from the weather map, con- firm the governments prediction. When the market opened higher there was flood of selling orders from the cotton trade itself which were taken largely by Wall street buyers, whose buying from time to time advanced the market from weak points. Limitations were made that these purchases were made on some unknown proposition of facts apt to be developed. Outside of this ru- more the trade were impressed by the official statement from the British ship ping director that after the May allot- ment of freight there still remained about 90, ,0OO bales that had not been shipped in December, last, which would be filled first.

|CORN SELLING HAS
 BEEN OVERDONE
This Feature Stiffens Up the Staple for Gain of
 Is to 2 Is Cents

Chicago May 2.-Signs that selling of late that has been greatly overdone, led to a sharp rally today in thee orn market Prices closed strong isc to 2Bc net higher. with May S1.27ss and July s1.475s to $1.47@. Oats finished 1sc to 1c net lower The outcome in provisions ranged from 55c decline to a rise of 15c.
 Too much enthusiasm among the bears in corn resulted from the fact that seasonable temperatures and plenty of sunshine appeared to be as sured for at least the next two or three days. The consequent free sell ing with which the day began, carried down prices to about 9c bushel, held the top level of last week. At this point, leaders turned to the buying side but found that it was difficult to cover. Prospective scantiness of supplies from rural sources gave fur proved conditions from blowing and counted and that decided upward re- adjustment was in order.
 Government purchase of 250, 900 bushels checked weakness in oats. Previously there had been pronounced bearish sentiment on account of ab- sence of export demand and because of the excellent crop outlook
 Provisions influenced by the corn bulge recovered partly from declines due to lower quotations on hogs.

July broke and closed at 25.95c with the gem eral list 92 to Ill points off. There was trade buying and after selling early on the outlook for better weather some or the local traders covered on the con- tinued reports of poor crop progress and replanting.
 Rumors that selling has been overdone of late caused a sharp rally in corn. Prices closed lsc to 21sc higher. Oats opened weak, but government purchases of 250.000 bushels checked weakness, with quotations lsc to 1c lower. Provisions were influenced by the bulge in corn, closing with prices ranging from 55c decline to 15c rise.
