An inland sea which, according TO
geologists, has changed from sea to
desert, and back again to sea, at least
fifty times since It's inception, Is one
OF the wonders OF the Imperial valley
In California. At the present time tlfe
Salton sea, which is 100 feet below
the oceans level, is receding from Its
banks at the rate of approximately a
mile year. Today the sea is IS
miles long and nine miles wide at its
widest point. In the heat OF the tor
rid season the temperature in its
neighborhood Is from 10 to 20 degrees
cooler than that OF the surrounding
country and outdoor dances are held
on one of the abandoned fish-piers
left high and dry by the receding wa
ters. The Salton sea Is situated In
the very heart of the principal date
producing region OF America. The
land left bare by the retreating wa
ters is eagerly sought by agricultur-
lists, who stake their claims far out
into the water in anticipation OF fur
ther recessions. The soil is OF salt
incrusted adobe clay and very fertile.

Wheat Continues
Downward i'm Face
OF Export Buying
Large Canadian Offers Conn
bine With Bearish Trade
Influences to Cause De-
cline; Corn Off Sharply

The export demand for wheat was
again active, but the market showed
strong resistance to bullish influences
and prices during the greater part of
the day were rather heavy, closing net
unchanged to 3 cents lower. The ex-
port sales were estimated at about
100000 bushels for the day and it
was said that Wednesdays operations
had aggregated from 100000 to TO-
100000 bushels
The poor response to this tremendous
export demand was again puzzling, al
though it was evident that there was
heavy pressure on the market from
some source. Much of this selling was
believed to be due to bearish con-
struction of commercial and financial
conditions in general, as many thought
That the signs of downward read
Justment I'm every direction were too
plain to be ignored.
Furthermore, pressure of cash wheat
offers from Canada are becoming more
OF factor in the grain market every
Gay and this was keenly felt in the
flour market, which was marked down
about so cents a barrel, to meet COM
petition from Canadian mills. There is
no doubt but that the break in the
- ni"i het 70 DeloW the dollar mark
IN Chicago had a bearish influence on
sentiment and altogether the selling
was OF an aggressive character, which
more than offset the record export OPP
eratlons of the past two days.
Cash premiums were slightly higher

port demand was for the domestic

Cotton Depressed
On Heavy Selling
And Bearish News
Unfavorable Weather and
Crop Reports Fail to Slim
ulate Buying; Influences
for Lower Commodities

The cotton market was weak again
yesterday, with January and all later
deliveries making new low records. In
favorable weather and crop reports
failed to inspire buyers, while the mar
ket was under pressure during the en-
tire day as a result Of continued South
ern selling and growing belief that
all commodity prices must be lower to
promote normal fall and winter bust
ness.
increased nervousness over the Brit
lsh labor situation and reports that
Secretary Houston was opposed to the
use OF bank facilities in holding COM
modlt1es for higher prices were also
factors IN the late trading, when De-
cember contracts sold at 243O, or 1903
points net lower. They closed at 24.45,
with the general market closing easy
at net decline of 35 to 95 points for
the day.
Liverpool was better than due, being
influenced, probably, by the more hope
full view of the labor outlook as re-
Elected in the London stock market.
The local market, howevW, opened easy
at decline Of 10 to "a points on all
months but October, which was points
nlSHeI' OctoDef soon weakened with
the rest of the list, and sold off to $3.50
late IN the afternoon, or i20 points net
lower, while January touched 23.42, or
rs points below the closing price of
Wednesday. Last prices showed rallies
OF Is to 30 points on covering
London adviccs stating that dele
gates of the British coal miners had re-
fused to consider proposals for an
other vote on the strike question
seemed largely responsible for the
afternoon weakness. Liverpool had
been a considerable buyer here during
the morning on the differences, and the
idea was that some of these contracts
might be liquidated on the less favor
able turn in labor negotiations.
The bearish view of general COM
IDENTIFY stimulated by the reduced price
lists of prominent mail order houses
and that the price revisions announced
last week had been followed by more
sweeping reductions by one of the
leading cotton goods manufacturers.
Perhaps the announcement of the cut
in the price of the Franklin car also
had contributing influence, while
there was good deal of bearsh COM
ment on the steady selling by the
South.
A private crop report making the
condition 1915 against TOO last month
placed the indicated yield at 1900 900
bales.
Southern SPOT markets as officially
reported showed further weakness,
being generally so to 100 points lower,
with Dallas reporting a decline of 1l5
points to 25.45 for middlng. The
lowest middling. quotation in the South
was 25.4O at Fort Worth, comparing
with 26.S5. the closing price for Oc-
tobcr contracts in the local market.
The local market for spot cotton was
quiet and 100 points lower, at $3.50 for
middlinC. No sales were reported.
