TALLAPOOSA COUNTY
 HAS EYES ON PEACHES

Camp Hill, June 27.-(Special )-- Several prominent merchants ani farmers of this community, together with w. T. Cheney, Tallapoosa county farm demonstration agent visited Fort Valley, Ga., and vicinity last week for the purpose of investigat- ing the peach growing business of that section. This is but another in~ dication of the change in farming methods which is taking place throughout this part of the state.
 The ravages of the boil weevil on the cotton crops and the general feeling that the old one-crop system of farming must be abandoned led to this trip. It is believed that the soil, climate, and other factors neces- sary to peach growing are as favor able here as in Georgia, and that with the proper preparation and attention, the raising of peaches on large scale can be made profitable.

The general market closed steady aI net advance of 5 to 30 points
 The opening was firm at an ad- vance of 14 to 22 points in response to higher Liverpool cables, favorable British labor news and crop com plaints from the southwest These features inspired sufficient de- mand for early new crop positions to absorb sales against purchases of July, and active months generally sold about 8 to 30 points above last nights closing figures before the end of the morning. There was q little more realizing around 12.74c for December which caused reactions in the later trading, with that de- livery selling off to 12.55c or within point of Saturdays close, but July held relatively firm and touched the best price of the day in the late trading when 1t sold at 11.37c. This near month strength caused late rallies in October and later deliveries hut the market was rather unsettled at the close owing to reactions in the stock market. Beneficial rains were reported in eastern sections of the belt, but private crop reports from Texas read unfayorable One of them stated that the plant was small and tender with little fruit and that the state needed a full month of dry weather. Reports from Washington that President Harding had ordered an investigation of complaints of in sufficient credit facilities in th$ south to carry over cotton on hand and the new crop until it can be in an orderly way attrac- ted considerable attention during the afternoon.

 Chicago, June 28.-Misgivings that there may soon be a period of bur densome receipts had a bearish eff feet on the wheat market today. Prices closed heavy, 1% 2c net lower with July SIPS to 1.2SAc and Sept. 1Ac and oats 7sc to AQ1$sc. In provisions the outcome varied from 214c decline to a like advance.
 Predictions that free movement of new wheat was ahead, drew spe- cial attention to the fact that there was no dimunition apparent in the movement of old wheat and the northwestern markets as well as ing much more grain than year ago. This situation in the final week of the old crop year wa&-~taken to in- dicate need of caution even in case the movement of new wheat should ba only of normal volume for the sea- son. Under such circumstances con tinuation of adverse weather for growth northwest and for harvesting southwest failed to stimulate buying. On the other hand the economic out lCok was regarded by many as a bearish factor and with a threatened strike of elevator employees tended to increase selling pressure, espec- ially in the final half hour of the session.
 Abnormally heavy stocks in sight did a good deal to force lower prices both for corn and oats
 Provisions during most of the day averaged lower in sympathy with grain and hogs.
