No. 1.-The Happy
Hunting Grounds

VHVHE Indians believed that when they died
they went to land where game was
always plentiful and warriors life was
one continual round Of hunting and feasting.
Often they thought they saw In the rolling
clouds the figures Of fheir departed mounted
upon feet horses and pursuing the deer and
the buffalo through the starry spaces.

the road cart was the popular vehicle.
If we had only had a lantern the
evening Ed. Kelley was on dress

wood piles. What you need on the
Ridge is "moonshine" then lanterns
will be obsolete.
Well, who should we run right face
to-face with Saturday evening, but
our dear old grandma. Of all the
mean thinks we have said about her
she seems to. take in good part. Well,
we will sort of beg pardon, grandma,
and spread our flowers on the living

PRESERVE EGGS IN LIME WATER

Now is the time to begin preserv-
ing fresh eggs TO sell for better prices
in the fall and winter months
Water glass is often used, but one
pound of air slaked lime to gallons
of boiled water will do just as well
and cost much less, according to NJ.
E. Dickson, of the Poultry Depart
ment. University of Wisconsin.
Only clean fresh eggs should be
packed and the lime water level
should be kept about two inches
above the eggs.
1t is best to pack in a common
stone jar, and keep it in a cool dry
place.
Eggs which are in a good condition
when placed in lime water have after
six months time the bloom of newly
laid eggs and be fully as palatable.

COTTON UNCHANGED
AFTER EARLY RISE
Prices Of Futures Close About
OF Par With Saturdays
Final Quotations.

Business In yesterdays featureless
cotton market was mostly evening up
in character in anticipation of to-day's
important crop estimate of the Depart.
ment Of Agriculture. The market dis
played a rather firm undertone during
time rose 20 to 25 points over Satur-
days close. However late in the day
professional long liquidation, combined
with little Southern selling. caused
reaction that left the list about un-
changed from Saturdays closing prices
at the final gong. The best buyers were
probably Wall Street shorts, spot con-
Germs and commission houses.
A good many guesses as to the prob
able size Of the 1922 crop have been
made in the last ten days and on the
basis OF these estimates the trade ex-
poets the Government to issue a report
placing the crop at 100000 bales or
slightly less. Anything like 9,so0,o00
bales or less would be construed as
bullish, with the probability OF a rise in
the market while 10.100.000 bales or
greater would be bearish. The average
OF fifteen private reports issued so far
Is 9,845,000 bales. The New Orleans
Ttnes-P -Ptcdyune yesterday placed the
size OF the crop at e.s36,000 bales. Due
to the proximity Of the Government re-
port there was naturally little or moth
ing In the way OF new business.
Part Of the markets gain OF the fore
noon session undoubtedly was caused by
the strength of Liverpool's cables and
the continued rise OF sterling to a new
high record The English futures mar
ket opened 1s TO 20 points higher and
at the time of the local call was up
20 to 81 points, although due only 13
to 16 points higher. Sales of the actual
were still small. only 1000 bales chang
ing hands.
The local market for spot cotton was
unchanged at 25.10 cents for middling.
The New Orleans market was up 25
points at 25 cents pound. Its sales
totaled 1,4S4 bales.
