ORLEANS COTTON
IS MUCH STEADIER
Early Trading Is Strong on Favorable
Reports.

NEW ORLEANS, March 7.-While the
cotton market stood higher than the
close of last week through today's ses-
sion, the greatest steadiness was in the
early trading when an altogether more
cheerful view of the foreign political sit
uation was held than the real facts war
ranted. Determined buying featured the
early session and short covering was
more or less in evidence throughout the
day, furnishing much needed support in
the late trading after what was consid-
cred to be a serious state of affairs had
developed abroad. AT the highest of
the session prices were 43 to 81 points
over the closing prices of last week with
May up to 1178. From this there was
a drop which did not stop until the gains
amounted to only one to five points. The
close showed gains of Is to Is points
May traded down to 11.31 and closed at
1142.
The favorable view of politics of the
early trading was strengthened for long
account, and caused heavy short cover
ing. Covering increased for a while and
was said to be coming mainly from spot
houses. Around the middle of the day
unfavorable cablegrams from London be-
gan to have their effect and prices were
at their lowest in the early afternoon.
On this soft spot. more short covering
was done and it had the result of Civ
ing the market a steady tone on the
close.

clared that q separation agreement

of domestic trouble then became more
frequent.

hotel where Mr.. Drew resides. She

COTTON MARKET
SHOWS ADVANCE
Advance of IS to 55 Points Marks
Opening of Session.

NEW YORK, March THE cotton
market showed an advance of about
40 to So points during today's earlier
trading on more optimistic views of
the war reparation conference and
higher Liverpool cables. Later advices
from London seemed a disappointment
to early buyers, however, and most of
the Improvement was lost with the
market closing steady at a net gain of
only 6 to IS points. May contracts
fiuctuated between 1855 and 1911,
closing at 11.73, compared with 1850,
the closing price of Saturday.
The market opened steady at an ad-
vance of to 20 points on the better
Liverpool cables which private advices
attributed to a more cheerful feeling
over the progress of the London con-
ference and reports of smaller spot
offerings from the south. There was
some irregularity right after call, but
Liverpool was a good buyer here while
there was covering by spot house
shorts and considerable local buying
promoted by the publication of pri-
Vate reports that Germany would ac-
cept the allied terms. subject to reyi-
sion in five years, and a loan. Later
cables failed to confirm this report or
to throw any definite light on the ne
gotiations and the market turned
easier during the afternoon under liz
Uidations by early buyers. March
contracts eased off from 11.65 to 1924
and July from 1850 to 1867 and the
close was within a few points of the
lowest. Reports that allied troops on
the Rhine have received orders to
march forward into Germany tomor-
row contributed to the late weakness.
Very little southern selling was re-
ported here during the day and there
We're reports that less distressed cot
ton was Offering in the belt, but there
was no improvement in the news from
either Manchester or domestic goods
markets.

GRAINS ARE LOWER

CHICAGO, March 7.-Chances that
German import of grains from the
United States through Holland and
other countries might be brought to a
halt had a bearish effect today on the
wheat market here and so, too, did
rains in the domestic wheat belt. The
close was heavy, 2 3-4@3 IL cents net
lower. Corn lost 1-4c to 5-8c, and oats
S-S to 12@5-Sc. In provisions the
outcome varied from 10 cents decline
to cents advance.

say specialists of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture. They affect the ker-
nels of corn in such a way that while
they may terminate they often will
produce sickly, diseased plants which
may die in early stages or produce
| infected corn. These diseases weaken
the plants at the lower joints and if
they come to maturity the damage is
perpetuated. 1t is estimated that this
disease destroyed $200,O0O,O 900 worth
of corn last year. No seed corn should
be planted that has not been tested.
