SHOULD COTTON BE ~.
BOUGHT ON BREAKS? L?

Cotton has acted 50 remarkably
in line with the forecasts in these
reviews that some Of our friends
jokingly credit us with second sight
It is gratifying, of course, and
causes US to exercise unusual eau
ton in our comments for we realize
the extent to which our advices are
being followed.
We believe that cotton should be
bought on all breaks, particularly
the fall months. From present con-
ditions in both cotton field and cot
ton trade We expect to see the late
months selling well towards rs
cents before the coming crop is
half gathered. Only an unexpected
reversal in world trade conditions
can prevent this. But the advance
thus far has been so rapid that the
upper structure of the market is
spongy. Fluctuations will naturally
be- violent until this situation is
cured. The reactions may be sud
den, violent and frequent, and the
recoveries equally unexpected.
The pendulum reduces its arc OF
oscillation slowly. The laws of ply
sizes can we'll be applied to study OF
price movements. Therefore we sug'
gest the wisdom of making com
mitments in the market on the
basis of the technical position fol
awhile. It seems safe to buy or
breaks and to take profits in the full
assurance that the price will swing
back again. It is well to remember
the old adage, that no money is lost
in taking profits.
So, while it may be interesting te
watch the conditions of the croI
and the developments in weather
and trade, the technical position Of
the futures market dictates the
taking of a trading position anc
using ordinary judgment in catch
ing the swings. As they become
narrower we can look for the list te
move into a new and higher trading
zone.

Dear Esther, thou beloved, shade!
How sweet our dreams of thee
And those fair days ere life did fade,
will ne'er forgotten be!
That spirit, with an angels wings
'Mong precious friends above,
In Heaven, now rejoicing sings
The sweetest songs Of love.
Oh, when those weary eyes did close
unto her souls calm rest,
No sweeter spirit e'er arose
To dwell among the blest!
On earth her love, all but divine
Will now immortal be,
And evermore cease to repine,
Her soul to rest did fee.
Upon her grave SAD tears we snec,
In sorrow do they roll;
They're all love hath to give the dead
And wept with all loves soul;
To each, who in deep sorrow grieved
This solace, sweet, is giv'n;
She's from her mortal pains reliev'd
And blooms rose in Heav'n.
Unto the mansions of the blest
Her soul of love ascends,
To greet her father there at rest
Where seraph joy attends;
On wings Of angels flight she'll rise
Among the blest above,
Where loving kindred of the skies
Rejoice in Heavens love.

.FORDNEY TARIFF BILL
CALLED C0NTEMPTIBL

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 15.-The
Fordney tariff bill was characterized
as a piece of contemplate legislation
unequalled in the history of politics"
by George N. Peck, Moline, Ill, speak
ing before the Ohio Implement Dealers
convention here today.
Never was there a more brutal and
callous betrayal of agriculture and the
national interest" he said. I'm Amer
ica-in the year 1922-the thing would
be inconceivable, were it not for the
fact that it stands recorded on the
statute books, approved, signed, seal
ed and-worst of all-applauded by
the president.
This tariff bill carries agricultural
tariffs which cannot possibly protect
the products on which they are levied
In the face of the fact that farm buy
ing power is cut squarely in two by
the differential between world and
American prices, this tariff bill was
passed to increase that spread"
The farmers buying power. Peel
said, must be increased by raising the
price of what he sells and lowering the
price of what he buys.

SANTA CLARA. Calf, Nov. 15.-
Although sun spots had something to

consequent tidal waves In Chile. the
moon also Was a contributing factor.
in the opinion of Father J. S. Ricard,
of the University Of Santa Clara OBJ
sevatory.
Father Ricard Is leading expon-
ent of the theory that sun spots have
a direct relation to the weather and
issues monthly publication known as
Sun Spot"
"In our observatory at Santa Clara
we have always held that great sun
spots on becoming central are par
tial cause of earthquakes" said Fa-
Their Ricard. when the Chilean
earthquake occurred there was a great
sun spot, latitude six degrees south.
For more than 20 years this coinci
dence between malignant sun spots
and earthquakes has been repeating
itself A coincidence thus maintained
| is in itself a proof.
"On the other hand, It cannot be
