NOTICE

To the citizens of McCrory:
 Some weeks ago the Arkan- sas State Council of Defense called the attention of the peo- pie of Arkansas to the start ling fact that last year 22,000 head of live stock lost their liv- es on the railroads in Arkan- sas, resulting in useless waste of 6,OOO,O0O pounds of meat, fats and leather. And this at a time when the whole coun- try was denying itself meat in order to conserve food for our soldiers and allies.
 Although the war is over, the Council of Defense is still calling on America to continue to conserve if we are to keep our pledge to ship 20,000,O00 tons of food to our allies in 1919. For this reason the Ark ansas State Council of Defense is still vigorously continuing the campaign to reduce stock losses on railroad tracks.
 Statistics show that above 75 per cent of the stock losses on railroad tracks in Arkansas occur in towns where stock are allowed to run at large. If

COTTON MARKETS
Market Disposed to Hesitate,
Although Spots Steady and
Sellers Scarce.

= NAaF lAE AAANAe w H.
There was a hesitant attitude in the
cotton market at times today, although
at others prices worked up without
meetlng much resistance. 1t was by no
means weak, for the weather conditions
and outlook we're not favorable and in
the spot department strength continued.
In the speculative market there was a
furry in October in New York, the
option selling up to the limit for one
day, touching 37.25c, but a sale after
ward was made at 37.l0c. This was
attributed to the fact that a few scat
tered shorts were caught In the maws
Of the bulls. n given a squeezing, but
il for a time affected the entire list.
indicating as ii did the firmness in
The spot department.
Liverpool was at first close TO what
was due, but improved considerably, es-
pecially for the near positions, reflect
ing the calling of the actual by spinners
and paucity OF offerings. Finals were
unsettled and from 65 points up to s
down, There was not much in the for
eign news except the reflection Of the
spot news from this side. Spots over
there off IL points, middling to 70. h2Sd,
with sales $1,000 bales, including 1900
American. Receipts for the day were
5000 bales. : Manchester cabled that
cloth business was more irregular but
firmly held, and yarns were healthy
and a good business doing.
At the opening on this side there was
steadiness, for the weather map was
anything but a good one, and nobody
offered any encouragement to the bears,
December started at 35.60c, a rise of 20
points, but a dip to almost the previous
close followed. only to be succeeded by
a buying wave which carried the list
to 80. 74c. Then came a period Of nerv-
BUSINESS and more or less disposition to
back and fill and await developments.
But later December worked up as nigh
as S5.9Scc, helped by the squeeze in
October However, more realizing was
done, induced by some expectation OF
bearish weekly statistics and the lack
Of fresh bullish material The option
dropped back to 35.5Sc and then became
steady.
The ginning report tomorrow at the
opening is awaited and as it is expected
TO be bullish, it helped to discourage
sellers today.
The weather map showed considerable
rain, but not quite so much as for the
DAY before, but there a was a -lookine
prospect, more unsettled conditions be-
ing promised and colder by the end O
the week.
The movement into sight came 405,
900 bales, compared with 38l, 900 last
wear, but other statistics were delayed
and thus the trade had little chance II
make use of them or their probabilities
Sales for the week were 10000 bales

sion of Sentiment.

NEW YORK, oct. 2L-The collapse Of
the Industrial conference and other la
Dor developments probably accounted
for the confusion OF speculative senti-
ments at the opening of tOdsy's stock
market. Steel shares. for example,
moved contrarily with some OF the
equipments, but the tendency for the
most part was toward Improvement,
Miscellaneous issues were prominent at
substantial gains, notably Remington
Typewriter and National Lead. Rails,
yesterdays most stable issues, reflected
confident buying, especially transconti-
nentals and gTangGrs.
The demand for rails b~roadened al
midday investment issues as represents
ed by Re6uing and Southern. Pacific

TO 4 points, Shares Of minor roads, es-
pecially those ~traversing Western and
Southwestern territories also were
steadily absorbed at substantial ad'
VanCes. .
The sharp break in American Smelt-
ing was the only noteworthy exception
t othe further advance OF the general
list In the last hour Reactions of / to

Genuine Relief if You Resort
to Sane and Sensible
Treatment.

There is a very common nliszln-
Outstanding of Eczema and the va
rious other forms of the skin erup-
tons and irritations that cause SO
much pain and discomfort. Because
the surface OF the skin is the scene OF
the attack, and seems almos abIaze
with fiery. burning and itching, these
disorders are misnamed skin diseases.
The truth Is that they are not really
skin diseases. and that is why moth
ing but disappointment follows their
treatment with salves and lotions APP
piled to the surface of the skin.
These irritations. eruptions. boils,
nimples. etc. are caused by dis
ease germ in the blood. which breaks
out through the skin, and as long as
the germ is in the blood. no cure can
come from ointments and lotions, even
if you apply them to the surface by
the ton.
The rational and sensible treatment
is s.. S, s.. the reliable blood purifier.
