NEW YORK, March 11.--Cotton fu-
lures opened steady; May, 1852: July,
1913. October, 1874: December, 1924;
January, 1894.
The market was steady today at un-
changed prices to decline of points
with near months relatively easy
under selling promoted by lower Liver
pool cables and unfavorable reports
from the cotton goods markets.
May sold Off to 1852 and October
to 17.24 during the first few minutes,
but there was considerable covering
at these figures and some trade buy
ing to fix prices in the old crop
months.
Selling of new crops probably was
checked by reports of cold rains In
the South, which We're considered
likely to delay farm work, particularly
in the Eastern belt, and prices
steadied up after the opening. May
rallied to 1853 and October to 1880,
the market ruling about net tin.

The market was easy owing to

After the call May traded at 1877,
July at 1897 and October at 1859, or

AS the weather map showed consider
able rain in the belt and cold weather,
the market showed a slight tendency
to rally at the end OF the first half
hour, but sentiment continued bear
ish and prices advanced only a point
or two. The market then became
quiet.
Reports that some Southern mills
Were agreeing TO curtail operations
owing to increasing stocks of goods
and continued complaints of u poor
spot demand encouraged bearish
sentiment later in the morning. Of
ferings We're comparatively light,
however, and the market held gener-

ASSERTS AMERICAN MEN
LACK PHYSICAL FITNESS
California University Professor
Says Majority Are Unable to
Meet Demands of Life.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BERKELEY, Calf, March 11.--Al-
though college students have fairly
high degree of physical fitness. as a
whole American men are unpre-
pared to meet the common physical
emergencies and demands of life"
This Is the conclusion of f. Il.
kleeberger, chairman Of the depart
ment of physical education of the
University Of California.
THE inability of most of our
young men of today to use the power
of their arms, shoulders and middle
body is surprising" he states, and
'the danger from this is greater to
the race than the loss In power OF
navigation credited to the automo-
bile"
Brain matter cannot be built by
physical exercise, T<leeberger believes,
but he thinks the present genera
tion should be developed sufficiently
to enable a man to act quickly and
accurately in case of an emergency.

BALANCING THE RATION /,
TO NEEDS OF THE COW

Because feed prices are lower
than last year and butterfat pri-
ces somewhat higher, many dairy
men are feeding more grain and
purchased feeds than a year ago.
Dairy division men at University
Farm say that the grain ration
gives best results when fed ac-
cording to the individual milk
production of the COW.
When a good grade of rough
age is available and the cows
should have all they can. clean
up-one pound of grain to each
three to four pounds of milk
produced will be sufficient. In
ration without clover or alfalfa
hay, goodly quantities of feed
rich in protein, such as linseed
meal, cottonseed meal or bran,
must be added in order to balance
the ration to the needs of the
animal.
