COTTON PICKING
BEING RU s H Ed

Cotton picking is being rushed as
rapidly as possible, many fields have
been touched but tightly, and others
have not completed the first picking
A large per cent of the upland bolls
are open, but the bottom crop is
somewhat later.
weather has made a very busy sea-
son for the gins, and farmers have
TO figure considerably in advance to
have their cotton ginned.
Both lint and seed of the early
planted cotton was very light shis
year; large boil cotton which ordi
narily averages 60 bolls to the pound
now average better than 65.
Pickers are not available in suffi-
cient numbers in many localities, but
relief is now in sight with the in
flux of pickers from Texas and Ark
ansas where the first picking has prac-
tically been completed.
On October 4th only 65,372 bales of
the Oklahoma Crop had been ginned.
On a basis Of 100000 bales, the last
estimate. this is but six per cent of
the tota! crop.
on September 2jth of last year over
s per cent of the crop had been
ginned which is practically the same
per centage as that of 1914, when
Oklahoma ginned the largest crop
n it, history. or 1,262,O0O bales. these
figures have a tendency to show that
this years crop is considerably later
than usual.
Should bad weather set in before a
much greater per centage Of the crop
is picked there is no doubt but what
white cotton will command a con-
siderable premium. according to John
A. Whitehurst, president of the state
board Of agriculture.

New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, August H. While the cotton market made rather pronounced show of strength in the first part of the session today the later trading brought decided weakness, the weekly crop re- ports from the government proving the big factor of the day. They were much better than expected. even among the bear element, and were responsible for heavy selling for both accounts In the early trading the market went 26 to 4l points higher than the last prices of yes terday from which level it fell until the trading months were g to 70 points lower than yesterdays finals. Closing prices were at net losses of 4S to 6S points October trade as high as 31 4S, from which 1t fell to 30.49 finally clos
 ing at 3050.
 Continued rains in the belt were re- garded as highly detrimental to the crop and they caused much of the buying the g eater strength coming after the post ing of the forecast calling for generally showery weather east of the river, and cloudy to showery in the west Cables were better than due and there was a more cheerful feeling regarding Euro pean politics. which helped the buying for a while. During the day a semi monthly private bureau report on condi- tion of 60 appeared, but it caused little buying Later there were rumors of an other private bureau report of 75.5 per cent of normal but they came too late to affect the market.

FRANCE AND ITALY,
 IN WHEAT MARKET, SEND UP QUOTATIONS

Chicago. August 11.--Wheat averaged higher in price today. owing mostly to reports that France and Italy were in the market as buyers. The close was unsettled at A G11&c net advance, with December $2.3siS and March s2.42. Corn gained h@13hc, and oats finished un- changed to h higher. In provisions, the outcome varied from 12c decline to rise of 45c.
 Demand for wheat was general and offerings limited until the market had scored a substantial upturn. Then sell ing broadened out somewhat and there were numerous setbacks and rallies With the bulls as a rule retaining some advantage. Misgivings in regard to the Russo Polish struggle appeared to have much to do with the strength of the market but more particular at tention was given to talk of export business especially dealing with France. Besides there were unfavor- able crop advices from the northwest, and primary receipts were far from liberal
 Corn and oats reflected the advance of wheat. Reports that some Iowa corn was firing was received with skepticism was largely offset by rains coming in the west.
 Weakness in the hog market pulled down lard and ribs. Pork quotations were higher but virtually nominal
