 Extra Staple Sales
 The Staple Cotton Cooperative association last Tuesday morning named opening prices for staple cot ton in the Mississippi delta on a basis of f. o. b. cars at concentration points. On the opening day we found very active interest shown by the Carolina mills. but very little interest shown by the New England mills Our first offerings were made on a basis of 32 cents f. o. b. cars concen- tration points for strict middling. full l B finch staple, and we were able to sell small quantity of cotton at this DtACG. uIlLli SdIuTudV the staple market continued to ad- vance in an orderly manner despite the fact we had very violent fluctua . | tions in the short staple market. We i continued to quote and offer associa . i tion staples on a firmer basis each 1 day. regardless of the action of the | future market and at the clcse of the week we are gratified to be able to advise the members of the associa- tion we have been able t~ sell ir reasonable quantities proportional tC our receipts at the following pricei in strict middling grade f.

SEEK HOME FUR BOY
 WILLING ID WORK

Lawrence is only a fair haired boy of 13, bright and industrious, but he has had more tragedy-perhaps not tragedy, but sorrow and disappoint- ment-in his life than the ordinary young man of 21. Probably he has not thought of it, and will not for some years yet, but he Is one of the comparatively few unfortunates who are forced to spend childhood in a grim battle against circumstances
 Now Lawrence's lot has been made doubly naru For the third time he is compelled to seek a home, and someone to care for him in return for his affection and whatever he can do about the house to show his ap preciation.
 Some years ago circumstances made Lawrence a ward of the juven- ile court-circumsta no fault of his, but of which he was the only victim. The court found him a home in Glendale, but the arrival of two children in that family caused it to give him up. Then he found home with a local contractor and his wife, and for a time all went well.
 Now circumstances have intervened lgain. Business conditions have made it necessary for the contractor to move to Los Angeles, and illness in the family has made it impossible for it to take Lawrence along. So for a third time a home must be found for him.
 Lawrence isn't looking for a home of ease by any means. He is willing to work about the house: ready to carry papers or do something of the sort to earn his clothes. All he needs | is a place where he will receive 8 little care and be able to attend school.
 So if anyone can and will give 2
 home to a boy who deserves it. anc l who already has been robbed of. SC many of the joys of childhood, he ol she Is requested to telephne 56RS today.

could be obtained. Some houses are holding for materially higher prices than these. and it is reported that No. 2 Pima sold in Phoenix, Ariz., for 37 cents.
 Some Fine Stocks Left
 Tire interests are still in posses sion of considerable stocks of Pima cotton and in some cases are not averse to liquidating a part of It when they can get attractive prices. It is possible here as the week closes to buy No. Pima delivered at New Bedford with the usual tare allow ance on a basis of 37 cents, though some as asking as high as 40 for it.
 Egyptians have been the center Of some interest, particularly spot Sak, which can be had in medium to high grades at 39 to AZ cents On Sak for shipment, the prices are now being quoted on a buyer pay tariff sched- ule and range from 34 cents up to 40, depending upon the grade It IS expected that the seven cent duty will be removed in November, pos sibility that none are losing sight Of. In many cases cotton bought now will probably not arrive until after the removal of the present tariff
 Eppers are offered at 2S to 30 cents for medium to high grades. It is hard to buy them on the spot, but there is plenty of this variety of fering for fall shipment.
 Interest in Peruvian Interest is reviving once more in Peruvians and they are being of- fered in some quantity, both spot and for shipment from Peru on a basis of 28 to 30 for medium to good grade. mitafifi and 27 to 29 cents for Tangris. Some types have been re- ceived here of especially high grade Peruvian mitafifi which is excep- tionally long in staple, running a strong five sixteenths. This kind of cotton is being offered at 34 to 36 cents. with the buyer taking the risk | of a tariff if one should be levied on the cotton when it arrives. Sales | of Peruvian have so far been very
