Cotton

Prices of cotton turned upward YES
terday, after several days of decline.
and at the end of the session showed
net gains Of 40 to 50 points There
seemed to be no real change in the
fundamental conditions affecting the
market, and the rise was locked upon
as natural recovery
1t is said that, although the goods
trades have been queter of late and
many jobbers have adonted a conserva-
tive attitude toward forward commit
ments, there has been no setback.
Prices for some products have ad-
vanced to still higher levels Reports
from retail circles indicate an unusual
demand for high-cost merchandise The
clothing trades are especially active.
largely in consequence of the demob-
ilization of the army and navy forces.
The demand on the drygoods market
has been lessened by the governments
putting out some large lines of cotton
goods which have been bought during
the war This naturally has brought
about slackening in the demand from
American mills for spot cotton
While there has recently been i'm
provement in the weather in the cotton
belt, conditions are far from satisfac-
tory, and if rains should continue dur
inc June the situation would, the trade
believes, be extremely serious

Wheat-"The Modern Miller" says
that harvesting has been advanced as

bushels.
Corn.-The corn market showed
weakness yesterday, but recovered
towards the close, and ended with
pricse from = of cent lower to
cent higher. Heavy receipts at Chi
cago and a small cash demand were
tic chief factors The market ap-
pearcd to ignore the unfavorG bic
weather reoor and the strength in
hogs The rise at the close was due
to buvinT bv traders who had pre-
viously sold in the expectation of pur-
chasing at a lower level.

YOU CAN HAVE PLENTY OF. ROSES
 NO MATTER HOW SMALL THE SPACE

are very long lasting; 1t has been awarded a gold medal. These varie- ties by no means exhaust the list now available of these wonderful mintture roses, and with them one can have almost as complete a range of color as with the standard sorts
 They are also particularly effective for edging, borders, or along walks or for the planting of small beds in a solid mass, the plants being set a foot to eighteen inches apart each way. There is still another type of roses which does not require a garden plot to themselves in which to thrive. These are the "rugosa" varieties sometimes called the "iron-clad'' ros- es because of their extreme hardness Their thick, heavy foliage renders them practically immune to injury from insects, and they do not suffer from blight or nildew. There is not such a big range of colds in this type as In the garden roses, but the plants are so rugged that they will survive almost anywhere. They are excel lent for hedges; or for planting banks; or against a wall or fence or embankment, as they make an up right, symetrical growth, throwing up strong canes from the ground and they are desirable for planting as single specim ems.
 Rugosa alba and R. rubra the original rugosas, bear big single flow CTS of white or rosy crimson. The big red hips" or berries which fol- low are very ornamental. A new va riety, nagnifca, has brilliant carmine flowers nearly five inches across, VERY FRAGRANT and BLOOMS CONTINUOUSLY from May to No. vember.
 The Rososa hybrid including such varieties as Conrad Meyer, a large double, silvery rose, very fragrant, and its white form Nova. Zembla New Century, a large full double light pink, and White Century (Sir Thomas LApton), an ever-blooming sort; Alice A1drich bright pink; Ma dam Georges Bruant, pure white; and Roseraie de IiMay.
 Another new rose, quite distinct In type from any which we have had In the past, Is Hugonfs; the yellow flow CTS cover the long sprays, and bloom very early, sometimes before the last late snow!

 The mill officials denied Spelke had any authority to bind the company in the matter. Spelke, a former food administrator of Stamford, testified that the government in- formed the mills that no soldiers would be sent from Camp Upton un- less assurances were given that the men could be accommodated. He ad- mttted he went to talk with Good man but denied he represented the mills on that occasion. Attorney Ray

 A school girl who is one hundred per cent busy and very much up-to- date is Miss Emily Clement Hal1ow- ell of Norwood. Mass. 8 senior in the local high school. She has a wide reputation as canning expert, being champion Of Norfolk county and chairman of the county junior canning committee.
 Wholly by chance" she says, she took up cold pack canning in 1917, and fa her home town won three first prizes. She also won prize at the Eastern States Exposition and Dairy Show ct Springfield, Mass, and first prize in Norfolk County in 1918. She was first in 1917 but there was no prize attached. She took first state prize for quality in Nerwood in 1917, and second in 1918. In 1918 she took first and fourth prizes at the New England Fair at Worcester.
 For two years she has done can ming for the Norwood hospital, and assisted the town director, Mrs. En- dicott, in her canning kitchen. For her two seasons she has a total of SIS quarts to her credit. She is equally expert in tellies and mama-
