As two of the teaching staff, Miss lyng and Mrs. Kinney, are on the sick list, the public school is at pres ent following no regular system of studies. the work of conducting the
 regular curriculum being too much
 for the ramaining teachers. Miss Orr <the principal, is endeavoring to con- duct the classes in the most practice
 able manner possible but is finding many difficulties owing to the short age of teachers. Every effort will be made to instiil as much knowledge as is possible under the circumstances but parents should not expect too much of their young hopefuls as long as conditions remain as they are. It is only through the remaining teach CTS agreeing to undertake double dut- ies that the school is being kept open.

Weekly Cotton Review
By Associated Pres,

By Associated Press
 New York, July 1.-The cotton market has shown renewed firmnes during the past week. The reactions which followed the recent government cropt report and preceded the holidays have not only been recovered but new high records have been established forthe life of the pres ent contract with October deliveries sell ing at S5.20. comparing with S1.S5. the low level of the previous week. and 1928. the low point reached on the declines of last spring.
 This advance has been due to the con- tinued strength of the Liverpool market furtrer anxiety over new crop prospects ari1 the activity of the domestic goods markets at advancing prices. Better weather conditions in the south and a more favorable weekly report from the weather bureau on Wednesday caused only moderate reactions owing to the low end-July crop and the appearance of trade buying on declines
 Reports that one of the prominent southern authorities placed the mid month condition of the crop at 72 com pared with the end-June report of 70 led to some selling this morning, but the offerings were steadily absorbed and the best prices of the week were made later on reports that trading with Germany would be permitted under a blanket H.
 
 peratures in parts of the southwest.
 Crop progress up to the present time has been attributed to wet weather, ap- prehensionS regarding it's future condi- tion are based largely on the possibility of droughty periods during the rising temperatures caused uneasiness. Accord ing to mail advices there is already good deal of cotton in Holland and Switzerland which has accumulated for shipment to Germany as soon as the blockade is lifted, but there have also been reports of, an increased export in- qufry in the southern spot markets dur ing the week, which local traders have thought might be connected with the rati- fication of the peace treaty.
 Domestic goods markets have been ac- tive. but this is considered partly due to reduced consumption. Private fore. casts indicate domestic consumption for June of only 440,000 bales against 572000 for the same month last year. The rela- lively firm ruling of Liverpool is said to have offset the decline in Sterling with the two markets.

OLD DELIVERIES IN
 CORN WEAKENED IN
 CHICAGO GRAIN PIT
Oats Made Good Gains, While the Provisions List Ranged soc Up to
 12c Down
By Associated Press

Chicago, July 11.-Corn weakened today for the old crop deliveries. but strengthened for the new crop month of December. There was much sert ti- ment that July and September were up too near the basis price of wheat, On the other hand, notice That trade relations with Germany could at once be resumed led to some speculative buying of December corn. The close was unsettled varying from 2hc net decline to an advance of 2c,e with Sep tember s1.s2A @1.sSB and December $1.59& @1.60. Oats gained 1c to 21h O 2Ac. The finish in provisions ranged from BOG setback to 12c advance.
 Most of the corn trade was in the December option and there was evil ednce that the bulls especially had transferred their activities to that month. In this connection, some friends of higher prices professed to feel apprehension that hot winds in the southwest would cause damage. Other authorities, however, said the mpisture supply in that territory had been ample. The days top figures for December were reached just at the close. Seaboard buying and unfavor- able crop reports were responsible.
 Absence of demand weakened pro- visions. notwithstanding new top rec ord prices in the hog market.

New York July n.-Early declines on reports of improving crop conditions were followed by very sharp advance in cot ton today. All deliveries made new high records. with months this side of Jan uary selling above the 35c level, and with December touching S5.50c, or 80 points above the. colsing prices of yesterday. That delivery closed at 3496c, with the general list closing strong at a net ad- vance of 56 to 6S points
 The market was unsettled, ruling the early trading. Liverpool was relatively easy for the first time this week, while the weather map made a favorable showing and after opening unchanged to 15 points lower, the market soon in- creased it's loss under Wall street and To- cal selling. Some selling for southern account was also reported around the ring and offerings increased following a report that one of the prominent south ern authorities made the mid month condition P, compared with the end June report of TO- This condition was said to indicate a crop of between Il, 400, GOO and Il ,50O.o00 bales, which proved a surprise to the trade, considering the bullish view that has prevailed regarding weather conditions since the end June figures were compiled.
 Liverpool and domestic trade interests were buyers on the decline however, and as soon as the more urgent selling for Wall street subsided, the market on re- ports of higher temperatures in Okla homa and Washington advices, stating trading with Germany would be per mftted under a blanket license. The earlier selling had left the market com paratively bare of offerings and prices advanced rapidly from 33.S0 to 35.10c for July and from S350c to 34.92c for Jan uary, or about 52 to so points above last nights closing figures.

Nv Associated Press


 New York, July u.-Considerable ir- regularity attended the course of today's stock market. but the trend was un- mistakably upward. particularly in the va rious specialties which owe their promi- nepce and activity to the operations of pools. The money market was again firm, yesterdays ruling rate of seven percent prevailing until the final hour. when loans were freely made at five per- cent. Time funds were more closely held, however, six percent being bid for all dates.
 In addition to the several groups of peace industrials which gathered fresh momentum on further favorable trade reports, today's strong features included shippings and metals of all descriptions.
 Substantial gains in marines, Ameri- can international, Pacific mail and allied shares were concurrent with advices ln- dicating early revival of experts to re- cent enemy countries, as well as neutrais whose ports were closed during the war period The further strength of metals was due to reports that the floating sup ply of refined copper would soon be ex- hausted, this same condition applylnS to other base metals for Whlch large contracts are pending.
 Foreign was less unsettled, sterling and francs showing more stability Lires re- mained reactionary.

New Orleans Cotton


 New Orleans, July IL Strength was developed today by cotton following slump in the early trading, as the result of reports from Washington that nearly all restrictions commerce with Ger many would immediately be lifted Prices were sent to new high levels, July touch ing s,50S. From the lowest to the highest there was a rise of S7 a bale on the strongest months. In the afternoon it was a very active market
 At the lowest the trading months were at net losses of 4s to 55 points, October reaching 3,330.
 The reports concerning Germany were immediately followed by a bulge on the assumption that the removal of the block ade would lead to heavy buying of cot ton for the account of spinners in that country. Later there were reports that cotton shippers already had secured ocean freight room from Bremen. The decline was quickly recovered and the advance did not stop until the market was s4 to sS points above the close of yes- terday. ~N a~-F

New York, July 11.-Dun's tomor- row will say:
 The demands of peace times, aug mented with the widening of interna- tional channels of commerce. are al- ready proving even greater than those of the wal period in not few branches of business, and shortages. of goods and sharply rising prices are again conspicuous features That mercantile and industrial activities now disclose less than the customary summer halt ing. and are actually broadening in many quarters, exemplifies the urgen- cy of present requirements, and more pressing calls are being made upon the agencies of production and distribu- ton as needs grow in magnitude. The usual numbers of democratic and for eiGn customers who are >tn the coun- try's leading markets are not only or dering literally. but in many cases are making requests for supplies beyond the ability of manufacturers to satis- fy. and allotnfents of outputs are be- coming necessary in some lines. The buying. moreover, centers in the more expensive classes of commodities and is not only based on immediate wants but Is also to cover future consump- tion and to forestall further price ad. vAnces.
