Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s. Letter

New York, January 22.-Cables this morning were better than due and our market had rather steadier undertone in the early trading, the selling from Liverpool was not in volume and there appeared to be some demand for March ou call cotton. This demand was supplied however, by fresh speculative liquidation and some hedge selling from the south. This pressure was sufficient to bring about sharp decline in the middle of the day, which was only partially re- covered in the late afternoon. The local feeling is very pessimistic. the unsettled feeling being increased by reports of fresh cuts in the price of goods. These rumors cannot be confirmed. but it is a question whether the decline in goods has reached a level as yet at which the retail trade will buy ahead freely. In the meantime the most encouraging fea- ture of the market is the continued de- mand for october for foreign account Hubbard Bros. & Go.

 The demand from abroad, he said, was problematical and although the govern ment might not lose anything because of the maximum wheat price guarantee it probably would have to pay out of the treasury from ssOo, 1000 to $6oo o,Ooo.OOO to meet the guarantee
 Discussing the problems of the farmer and stock raisers, Secretary Houston said:
 'The city people who keep talking about the back to the farm movement and urging us to force increased pro duction so as to lower prices must get it into their heads that people are going to farm just as long as farming pays.

II You Need q Medicine
You Should Have tho Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
il is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten! The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfil
the promises Of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy il
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need Of it..
A prominent druggist says take for
example DIR. Kilmer's Swamp, Root, a
preparation / have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many Of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony Of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success Of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it ful6lls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes th5 uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive q sample bottle OF
Swamp Root by Parcels Post. Address
