NEW ORLEANS COTTON. Ry AsaoCfated PrAss


 New Orleans. La, Sept. 14,-The cotton market made fairly wide gains at times today. There was much realizing from the long side and some little short selling on the belief that this realizing might eventually bring about a prolonged reaction. Heaviest selling was felt around the middle of the day, when the trading months were II to Is points under the close of yesterday. with October at 19.4oc. Another period of selling came to- ward the close, after the market had come back rather strongly on reports of better spot demand especially in the interior, so that last prices were at net advances of but to 12 points on the more active months, october closing at 19.62c.
 Around the opening the Ftrend was higher and the advance was widened by the census bureau report on American cotton mills for August, the active months finally standing 46 to 53 points higher than the final prices of yesterday Here October stood at 20. OSc. Interest in the census bureau figures was centered mainly in con sumption, which was counted at 467,- 103 bales, against 410,120 during July, a considerably larger gain than gem erally expected.
 Following the weekly crop reports. the market went to it's lowest on the claim that the returns were f>ss un- favorable than expected, especially on Texas For a while this opinion dominated the trading. but a little later the market began to firm. up again on bullish spot accounts.

Wheat Takes Setback on Foreign News and
 Exchange Expressions
By Associated Press

Chicago, September 14-Rains in Argentina, together with depressions in foreign exchange, led to setbacks today in the price of wheat. Closing quotations were heavy. s4c to 11ae net lower. Corn finished a shade off to 1s up, oats down IS c to asc, and provisions unchanged to decline of 25c to 27c.
 At first the wheat market had a pronounced upward slant owing chiefly to liberal buying of United States wheat yesterday on the part of foreigners. Crop developments in Argentina and Australia, however were being closely watched. and when shortly before mid day the news came that drouth in Argentina was broken, the market soon weakened. Meanwhile bearish sentiment was re- inforced by signs that the foreign eX- change situation was interfering with export business. Under such circumstances word of big sales of flour at Minneapolis and Kansas City failed to induce any important rally.
 Corn and oats governed mainly by the action of wheat. Wet weather, though, tended somewhat to sustain corn. Besides, gossip was current that the yield of corn would prove disappointing.
 Provisions averaged lower With hogs Packers sold lard.

CROPS SHOW IMPROVEMENT

Rockford, September l4.-- (Special.) The crops of Coosa county are said to be much better than anticipated q few months ago. The cotton crop will be comparatively short because of the great reduction in acreage during planting time MaHy of the farmers decided not to rely on cotton this year and to plant more grain and hay. Last year there were 5000 acres planted in cotton in Coosa coun- ty which yielded only 5000 bales which was about one bale to every 10 acres of land cultivated i'm cotton. This year the county farm demonstra- tor, sam M. Day prevailed with the farmers = this section to not rely on cotton, since the boil weevil had proved so hazardous last year. and to plant more corn hay. and esoe
 cially cowpeas. There will be sarys yield of cowpeas throughout the en- tire county. The oat crop proved to be the best seen in this county in sev
 eral years. The corn production will be encouraging, and the entire agri- cultural production as whole will doubtless prove. according to those who are in position to know, much better than previously anticipated.

WALL STREET MADE PROFESSIONS ID ITS RECENT RECOVERY
Dealings In Rails Were Lim- tied Mainly to Secondary Issues and the Cop
 pers Reacted
By Associated Press

New York, September 14.--On the most extensive operations of any ses- sion In recent months, the stock accessions to it's recent recovery. Trading was very confusing, how ever, early strength giving way to irregularity at mid day. Another wig orous rebound was later impaired by heavy profit taking, this in some in- stances cancelling gains at the close.
 Commission houses with western and other interior connections were permanent on the buying side. Their participation tended to confirm the impression that public interest in the securities market is showing definite signs of revival.
 Sentiment in speculative quarters seemed to be swayed by relaxed mon- etary conditions. the more stable course of commodities and the gem cral if somewhat moderate improve ment shown by the steel industry as seen In higher prices for wire pro- ducts. On the exchange call money opened at per cent with abundant offerings at Al outside. Time loans were made at 5h per cent, even for the longer periods, and slight con cession was noted in the rate for commercial paper.
 Of all the usual leaders oils were relatively backward, most of the for eign and high-grade domestic issues dcnoting pressure. Steels and equip ments dominated the list. especially Baldwin and Railway Steel Spring.
 Shippings and motors, also motor accessories, made substantial con tributions to the advance, with chem icals and paper and leather spe- osaltien. Dealings in rails were linn ited mainly to secondary issues ana ccppers reacted on trade conditions. Further heavy buying of dollar ex- change in London for British and other interests precipitated sharp re- versals in the local foreign exchange virtually all European remittances weak ening, especially francs ana marks. The bond market, includ- ing liberties, was mostly higher on enlarged dealings. Among foreign issues the strength of Cuba Cane fs and heaviness of United Kingdoms or 19s7 were contrasting features. Totai sales, par value, were $l4,Sbo,ooo.

WORLDS GREATEST PLANT HUNTER

Arthur C. Broks, in Leslies
 Shortly after Professor Wilson. plant explorer for the Arnold Abore- | tum, Boston, had discovered his fam ous Incandescent Lily in the hinter- land of Thibet a loosened boulder bounded down the hillside and broke his leg. His band of coolie porters carried him a painful three miles to { missionary hospital where the ad- venturer pesforce languished an anx- tous 16 weks before he could hobble back, to his pdecious find.
 He collected 10000 bulbs from acres of beautiful blooms and shipped them by man. mule and steamer to America. Now they grow as readily In this country as in China. The lily a lovely flower of white, crimson ani yellow. with delightful perfume, was awarded gold medal as the finest ne wplant introduced to culti- vation
 Ernest H. Wilson is the Living stone of horticulture. He is the most redoubtable, audacious and per- severing plant hunter the world has ever seen. There are no flowers or shrubs in civilization with which he is not acquainted. An estimate gives the number as 10000. 10 one else knows so many varieties of native and foreign flowers shrubs and trees and no other explorer has trans ported from their habitats the count less strange plants which this unusu. al man has to his permanent credit
 There is no man outside of western China. for but one instance. who has greater knowledge of that coun- | try. He has spent II years in the interior and brought back 14o0 spe- cimens. Of exotic plant life. which ha found in the course of his trip ot 1000 miles to the extreme border.
 The vocation of plant hunter is not so genteel as the name might sug- sest. It Is mans job, charged with red -blooded adventure. For example the natives of Formosa are largely head hunters. and as Mir. Wilson travelled throughout the island. his experiences weer many and danger ous.
 During his expedition in Corea and Formosa, Mir. wilron was retained by Japan to prepare an outline for for estry improvement in the first named dependency. Later he was consulted oy the British government about re- forestlng England and Scotland, and sent them 10000 pounds of Japanese iareh seed. In Formosa he was the second man to climb the precipitous higher than the notable Fujiyama.
 MT. Wilson lately left on as voya ge to the houthern hemisphere which he anticipated will require two years He will investigate rare pamphlets and other literature on horticulture and afboriculture which are holden Tn botanic museums in Melbourne. Calcutta, Bombay and other cities.
