Cotton Tendency Is| Downward Last Week

NEW ORLEANS, July S.-High- last week came on the opening ses- sion before the governments second crop report of the season was made Following the issuance of the rec ord breaking figures on the area under cotton. 3S,28T,000 acres. the market fell and from then on during the week the tendency was toward lower levels, in a moderate way, be- cause of fairly favorable weather and crop accounts from the belt gen erally. From advances over the close of the preceding week of 1 to IT points on the more active months, there was a fall to levels 126 to 139 points under the preceding weeks close-July from 27.S0 to 25s6 cents pound. The close was 21 to 80 points net lower on the week with July at 26s2 and October at 23.06. In the spot department prices were at losses on midling, which closed at 27.63 against 22.5o on the close of this week last year.
 Favorable reports from the belt had all the more effect because of the continued qlhet in the textile trade Of this and foreign countries. The governments report on the crop of the first of the week placed the indicated yield at I2,420,000 bales. which would have been considered small with better world trade condi- tions Only small business was re- ported In the spot department but, while the demand appeared to be small offerings also were very light. The second bale of the new crop in Texas was reported during tho week and Georgia wired brokerage houses here that the first bale of the Geor- gia crop probably would appear around the goth of this month.
 Rainfall was moderate in most sec tions of the belt this last week and

M|D-YEAR DEMAND FUR RE|NvESTMEN ABSENT LAST WEEK
Listed Bonds Move Within Extremely Narrow Limits
 Past Six Days

NEW YORK, July S-Failure of the usual heavy mid-year reinvest- ment demand to make it's appearance was the feature of last weeks bond market. Absence of this support was attributed by bankers and bond deal CTS to the unSettle ment of the se- curities markets, prospective buyers Apparently holding off until satisfied that the reactionary price movement which began in March had been defi- nitSly ended.
 New offerings totaled s54,O4s,000, as compared with $S2,162, GOO the week before. Complete statistics for June show that the total of bonds, notes and stocks issued by railroads, public utilities and industrial corpo- rations was S324,131, S25, against S249, ,65S, 900 in May and $554355,940 in June, 1922.
 Prices of listed bonds moved within extremely narrow limits during the week. showing a reactionary tone in the first few days, but strengthened as the week progressed. Buying sup port was most effective in the called speculative railroad mort gages.
 one of the features of the week was the bad break in the New Haven RailIpad issues. which was founded on the publication of the report of the joint New England railroads compromising recapitalization of the road With an assessment on the com mon stock.
 Market value of the S304, 4,00O, 900 of New Haven bonds today averages less than 50 cents on the dollar. while the market value of the stock is a little {over $15,000,000.
 Investment bankers report that several larsse offerings are being held in abeyance until the market shows signs of further improvement. Two South American issues are likely to be floated here, in part, at least, in the next few months-a Uruguayan loan for which bids have been called and the Argentine refunding issue, which may total S150,000, 000.
 In addition, local bankers are in terested in Canadas refunding pro gram. which involves the retirement of about $172,000,000 of bonds on No Nember i next. It is believed here that large part of the new loan will be sold in London because of the lower interest rates obtainable there and that an attempt will be made to sell as many bonds as possible in Canada. The balance probably will be disposed of here.
 The largest offering last week was the S40,000000 issue of Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company 20-year per cent floated at 99 years, to yield eos per cent. Other issues were much smaller In amount, some of the more important being: $S,000,O00 Ala bama 20 to 35year IA per cent road bonds at prices to yield 40 per cent; yS2, 500,000 St. Louis to 20-year 412 sper cent improvement bonds at prices ito yield 425 per cent. and $2.S62000 iTrenton, N J., to 36-year Az per icent refunding bonds at prices to iyield 4.20 to 4.30 per cent

Banking CondItIonse Satisfactory.

From the banking standpoint, con- ditions are also highly satisfactory. Changes in the reserve position of the country's banks are not sig nificant of any unfaVorable develop ment in the general business situa- ton. The advance in the bank of England rate is not of special inn portance from our standpoint. In former times it would have been followed by & corresponding advance here, but oud advance took place last February and that of the bank of England was long overdue. No where throughout the United States are there any warning symptoms of a banking nature to cause apprehen- sion. In fact. as one searched the situation from one end to the other il is almost impossible to put ones finger upon anything that would justify the feVerishness which the stock market has betrayed in the last il3r", rpnths. The blackest shadow of the situation on the Ruhr. but 'annot be any worse than it has It is a condition that is tmpc. thle, but it has been that way ~ long that the world has adjusted itself to it. and any chance, therefore, would seem to be for the better.
 Next year of course there will be the turmoil of a Presidential cam paign. That is 12 months off, and there is no. use in crossing that bridge until we get to 1t. The busi- ness theorists are busy with their peaks end depressions and cycles and averages but 1t is the Fundamentals that court, and these are sound.

temperatures were higher than dur ing the preceding week. It is gen erally considered that the crop will
 do best in the near future and dry and warm weather although some sections of the belt claim to need at least light showers. Too much rain, it is considered, would be highly det- rimental and would lead to a new
 buying movement. This wek will probably bring several important private mid-month condition reports.

Canot Gain Control.

Concerning the political outlook, the pessimists are trying to work themselves up into state of excite ment zecRuse of the threatened radical Legislation at the next session of congress The radicals will not be in control. although they will form a sufficient minority to control formidable strategic position. They can do this however, only by an al lance with either one of the great parties, and there is no indication that either the democrats or the republicans are willing to indorse the schemes which the radicals program calls for. That which is most feared is an attack upon the railroads, but the sentiment of the country seems to be crystallizing in favor of giV- ing the roads a legislative holiday. As the President of one of the larg est systems has said if the roads can only be let alone for five years they will be placed in position where they can withstand almost any adverse influence" Surely this is situation worth working for and is the surest way to bring relief to shippers and passeners in the form of lower rates.

BUSINESS LEADERS DECLARE PRESENT CONDITIONS SOUND
Can All Big Men In Industry And Finance Be Wrong,
 Editor Asks
Fly WALTER A. BROWN Editor New York Commercial

NEW YORK, July S-Can It De &hat the stock market is actually barometer of business conditions, present and to come? The greatest men in industry and finaIhce insist that present conditions are sound and That the outlook for the future. for the, remainder of the present year at least, is entirely satisfactory Are they sll wrong? Have their keen mirds faihed th em at last! Have they seeae stale. and all of them sAm- 11ltaneohsIvt The United States Steel corDo ra thcn rece1Nly sold stock to Ns employees st 10S, which was deemed a fair price Within the past week it has sold below 90., Have these men up this gigantic cotporation so com pIeteIy mistudged conditions, or are thev deliberately double-crossing their employees or selling short? The last is unthinkahlea because they have always played fair All these men who are insisting that business is sound are the same nten who lore saw the slump Of 1920 and warned against it. If they had the courage when the postwar boom was at its height to warn the country against the deflation that was sure to follow, they surely can be trmsted now, at least so far as their SiIscarMy of pur- pose is concerned. But can 1t be that they are all wrong. every one or them? There is not q dissenting voice among them. The pessimists are the professional stock market op- orators, who are just now working for the decline, and the exQert busi- ness advisers. who no longer have the courage of their convictions

 Finds Prices stable.
 One of the business leaders Nworth listening to is President Pars0n of the F. W. Woolworth company. This concerns chain of , and 10 cent stores, to be found in every city of any size all over the country, come g in as close contact with the publlc as any selling concern could. MT PSrson finds merchandise prices to be on stable basis. and is so sagis- fled with this that his organization is buying ahead in the expectation ol a continuation of the heavy trade of the past few months. Recently there was a meeting of the district man agers from all parts of the country. Without exception they reported their own business good. and the general business outlook in their re- spective localities to be excellent. MT. Parson notes that there is no disposition on the part of manufac- tUrers supplying them with merchan- disc to ask for financial assistance, as was the case last year. The ex- perience of the Woolworth organi zstion is paralleled by the mail order houses, and the inference is that the people are making money and spend- ing it. This does not mean that there is 8 return of the wild eXtraV- aeance of three years ago, but that the people themselves have confi- Gence enough and apparently have no idea of a buyers strike.

Check Cucumber Beetle
by Using Dust Mixture

One of the best methods Of control
ling the cucumber beetle, according to
Carl ]. Drake. state entomologlst at
Iowa State college. is to dust the
young plants with a mixture of one
part Of calcium arsenate and 20 parts
Of gypsum.
The dust can be applied with a
shaker made by punching holes in the
bottom of a half gallon tin can with
an elght-penny nail. The first appli-
cation should be made Immediately
after the young plants break through
the ground. After that the plants
should be busted either early in the
morning or late In the evening from
two to three times per week and fol
lowing rains.
Usually from 10 to u applications
per season are all that are required,
although more are necessary in the
case of exceptionally severe attacks
by the beetles. If these directions are
followed rather closely, there will be
no trouble in controlling the cucumber
beetle.
