England Encourages Beet Sugar In.
dustry.

In an effort to encourage and es-
tablish a native beet sugar industry,
England is planning to remove the ex-
else duty upon sugar produced within
the United Kingdom.
This il being done in recognition of
British beet sugar producers who ask
this bounty until such time as the in
dustry has been firmly established.
This will be equivalent to 5 cents a
pound protection for the British beet
sugar producers.
American farmers and beet sugar
manufacturers are asking that a tar
iff of approximately 2 cents pound
be established by our government for
the purpose of enabling American beet
growers End beet sugar producers to
meet the competition of foreign cane
sugar produced with cheap labor. The
American beet sugar industry simply
asks for conditions under which it will
have an even break in competition.
Beet sugar is the check which pre-
vents US from being at the mercy of
the foreign grower and seller.

Another Hail Visits Holly Last Sunday

Another hail storm visited US last
Sunday evening. 1t extended about
35 miles south but not very far north,
according to reports. Some damage
was done to the crops, but not so
serious as at first thought. Kansas,
Oklahoma, and Texas were visited by
destructive wind and hail storms on
the same date. Wind, rain and hail
seem quite general this spring but
most Of the farmers have had their
crops insured. The outlook for fine
crops is exceedingly bright, barring
possible destruction by the forces of
rature.-Holly Chieftain.

Back to Arkansaw.

Word has just been received that
Charley Wooden was in Hiilsboro,
Texas, when the negro was burned
there recently. When the immense
crowd had gathered just before touch
ing off the fireworks the question was
asked if anyone had anything to say
for the prisoner. After a dead silence
of few minutes Charley stood up on
a barrel and said that if no one had
anything to say for the prisoner he
would like to make a few remarks
about Kriswood fixtures and Ornaback
padding cement. He left just after
wards and the latest report is he
reached Arkansaw safely.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON Rv aasociated preas

New Orleans. September 12.-A strong demand. much of 1t for speculative ac- count lifted the price of cotton today for moderately wide gains after uncertain fluctuations and period of easiness in the early trading. private bureau con- dtion report of 49.4 per cent of normal and talk of yield of something under 10000 900 bales were back of much of the buying. Considerable excitement was caused in the second half of the session by the rumor that large traders had taken to the long side and following this, the market went to 1t shighest prices, 40 to 46 points over the level of yesterday s close. In the last few minutes of the ses- sion longs were inclined to realize profits and the close was at net gains on the session of but 30 to 33 points, October wentas nigh as 21.40c and closed at 21.26c.
 During tho course of the first call prices were to 10 points up, but the demand was scattered and satisfied. and the mareot almost immediately sagged under an unfavorable opinion of the foreign po- litical situation. October fell off to 20.74c and the trading positions to net losses of II to 20 points. Here the private bureau condition report commenced to be felt and recoveries ensued.
 Around the middle of the morning the demand was increased somewhat by re- ports of rains in the Atlantics and conse- quent damage to open cotton, but not as much attention usual was paid to weather

HEDGING s ALES, LIGHT DE " A N D,
 SEND DGRAINS
By Associated Press

Chicago. September 12.-Hedging sales from both the northwest and southwest. together with lack of speculative demand. led to declining prices today for wheat. The market closed unsettled, hc to 1isc net lower. with December $1.0OM to $1.01 and May s1.o6 to $1.06h. Corn fin ished unchanged to ss@Ac down; oats off A@%c to 1ac, and pro- visions varying from 15c setback to 7c advance.
 Notwithstanding an upward ten dency shown at the opening, wheat values soon began to sag, and throughout the remainder of the day seemed to have but little power to rally. It soon became evident, how ever. that an increase of the crop movement in the northwest was mak- ing itself felt and this factor was emphasized by word that the yield of wheat In Canada was officially es- timated at 3SS,733.000 bushels, the largest total since 1915.
 Better call for United States hard winter wheat to go to Europe de- veloped on the decline in prices. Sales of wheat here to exporters were estimated at 700, ,000 bushels, and the seaboard advised of 50o.000 bushels taken by exporters there.
 Corn and oats were easier with wheat. Besides, receipts of corn were heavy and crop reports were of bearish character. On she other hand exporters were good buy CTS of corn.
 In the provision market. deliveries of 100000 pounds of lard on Sep- tember contracts were something of an offset to an upturn in hog values.

EARLY REACTIONS.
 FOLLOWED BY FEW COTTON ADVANCES
Ky Assncints,i praaa

New York, September 12.-Early reactions were followed by a sharp advance in the cotton market today. which was accompanied by reports of an improving export demand and claims of a steadier spot basis in the southwest December contracts sold up from 21.56c to 22.15c or 46 points net higher and closed at 21.9Sc with the general market closing steady at net advances of 20 to 34 points.
 The market opened steady to II points higher on steadier late cables from Liverpool and reports of in- creasing domestic mill activity with q settlement of wage disputes at additional New England points. This opening advance met good deal of realizing and there probably was some selling on an idea that the rains reported south might add some- thing to the crop with good weather from now on and late frost. After selling off to 2I.33c for October and 21.43c for January or about 10 to 13 points net lower, however, the mar port placing the mid-month condition of the crop at 49. 4c and the indiyated yield at 9,900,000 bales. The ad- vance which followed promoted by the better average of the news reach ing here from southern spot markets, which indicated that offerings were being well absorbed with a stiffen- ing basis In the southwest. October sold up to 21,S5c and January to 22.02c making net advances of 42 to 47 points and recovery of some 50 to 60 points from the low prices of the morning.
 A good deal of the buying on this advance seemed to come through brokers with Wall stareet connec- tions and was attributed to cover ing the recent sellers, and the mar ket eased off a few points from the best in the late trading under re- alizing. Liverpool cables reported very quiet market and Liverpool was a moderate seller here early New Orleans was seller early but bought on the afternoon advance. Port receipts today were 35.15S bales, United States port stocks, 462,21s bales. Exports today s,34s bales, making 2S6.650 bales so far this sea- son.

Weakness In these shares ac- companied rumors of possible re- ceivership, which were promptly de- nied by President Samuel NJ. Felton.
 There was fairly sustained de- mand throughout the session for equipment shares. Strength of these stocks was in response to increased orders for equipment by the large railroad systems.
 Merger talk was held responsible for the further activity in Produ- cers and Refiners, which closed al a net gain of nearly a point. Barns .aall A stock shot up nearly 3 points on reports that it was the likely participant in the producers new combination. The latest earnings report of Mexican Petroleum, which showed earnings of $35.43 share on common stock for the first seven months of 1922, as compared with s17.50 for the first six months of 1921, furnished the cue for squeez- ing of the recent short interest, the stock closing at net gain of 2 points.
 Unusual strength of tobacco pro- ducts, which closed at net gain of 5is points, accompanied revival re- ports of it's possible merger with Schulte Stores and speculative ex- pectatien of dividend this year.
