COTTON TREND
IS UPWARD

NEW YORK, Nov. S GN.S).
The cotton market gave a some
what improved account of itself
today, with the list holding slight
ly higher throughout the first half
of the session.
Small gains we're recorded at
the opening, continuing the rally
in progress at the previous close,
but the list fluctuated narrowly
thereafter unable to make any
further headway.
Trading was somewhat mixed,
and only moderately active ring
observers reported fresh buying
credited to Western sources on a
belief that the present upward
movement in grain prices should
influence cotton.
The first of the trade estimates
on the forthcoming Government
report appeared today with E. j.
Schwabach & Co. estimating the
cotton crop as of October 26 at
100000 bales, against the Gov
ernment's estimate of 16,284,000
baelS as Of October /.
At midday, December was up 4
points at 6.51, January was up
S at 6.62, May up 6 at 6.96, and
July UP 5 at 7.12.

Future of Market Trends
Is Puzzling to Haney

One thing is certain and that
is that the rise is going to meet
resistance here. Many traders
will take small profits.
Others who have been diScour'
aged by past failures go through
the upper resistance level will sell
now on the slightest hesitation in
the market.
The only safe attitude to take
is to regard this as a test OF SEN
timent and Of the technical posi-
ton Of the market. All we can
say is that if the averages go
through on the up side now, 1t
will be an indication Of real
strength.
Better to Wait
If the market fails to go
through and turns reactionary,
there will be a strong presumption
that a more pronounced down
ward movement than any seen in
the last three weeks will occur.
would not take any position In
the stock market until the aver
ages have demonstrated the abil'
ity Of stock prices to go through
their recent highs.

WHEAT UPTURN
EXPLAINED BY
EXPERT
EngIand'S Needs, Short Crop
And Public Speculation
Held Chief Causes
BY JAMES d. FOSTER

CHICAGO, Nov. 5 GN.SO.
Since the wheat market started
it's sensational climb october S,
when the price was at its lowest
mark in 300 years, economists,
traders, and the investing public
have sought an answer to the
question, "Why?"
An economist attached to a
brokerage firm of national repu-
tation here sets forth impartial
reasons and an analysis for the
international News Service. He
requested that his name be with
held for business reasons.
Gain Over 20 Cents
The low mark in 800 years, Of
October S for various options in
wheat, compared with the close
of yesterday shows more than 20
cents net average changes.
Facing these changes to the up
swing, professional traders and
brokers who have been on the
short" side of the market are
now going "long." They have re-
viewed world production and crop
positions and found their surveys
favorable to buy"
When England suddenly reached
the position in world trade where
she had to lose her gold standard,
she, likewise, had to buy wheat.
She feared a tariff under protec-'
tive measures following the gen.
eral elections.
Had to Buy Here
England had to turn to the
United States because Argentine
has poor crops, spoiled by rain,
and indications point to less fa-
vorable market conditions for this
year; Australia is in FORMAL
condition; Continental Europe is
spotty; Russia, where some doubt
exists, is certain, however, to be
on the minus side; Central Eu-
rope might be termed as favor
able; Italy. good, and France
fair to good. These conditions
apply to moisture as we'll as
crops, based on the judgment of
the crop in the ground.
The world supply Of wheat is
stronger than a year ago, but
the 1881 crop falls short about
ESQ, ,000,000 bushels from the pre-"
vious year the world over. This
means the surplus is decreased
to this extent.
Public Enters List
In this country and in Csnada
there is an invisible and unknown
decrease caused by the feeding
of wheat, and what this totals
no one knows, in bushels. The
United States estimate is about
15O,000,000 bushels, and this may
be too small. Therefore the sales
of American grades of wheat
could only cause an upswing.
The general buying public hav"
ing been smitten in the stock and
bond markets is turning to wheat
with a confidence not found
since the stock market crash.

NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-Once

averages is but slightly more than
q point under the previous clos

answer.
This company reported a loss
Of $2,163,0 during the first
quarter of 1881. In the second

sustained, but in the third quar-.
ter, ending September 80, a profit

Director New York University, Blu
reau Of Business Research)
The position Of the stock mar
ket is most interesting.
The averages appear to be show
ing what chart readers call a
head and shoulders" movement.
On October 10, prices ran up to
a peak which forms the left
shoulder"
Headed October 20
After a two-day reaction, prices
ran up to a little higher peak on
October 20. That was the head" I"
Now, after an irregular decline,
they have rallied again, and ap-
preached q third peak. Will this
be followed by another decline?
II so, the hump now being made
will be the fright shoulder" Of
the movement.
Something like that is as prob
able as anything. The triuble is
that one can never know until the
formation has actually been made.
It Is barely possible that the
market may continue to rise, and
then there would be no right
shoulder.

Ancestors Fix Pullets'
Worth in Laying Flock

A baby chick is born with a GER
tain capacity to lay eggs, reminds
Prof. L. NJ. Hurd of the New York
State College of Agriculture, in ad-
vising chick buyers to buy chicks
only from heavy laying flocks. 1t
is doubtful, he says, if any practice
in flock management is AS effective
as breeding in increasing or main
tanning flock profits.
He cites the records of two fiocks
at the Concord university expert
ment station. One flock comes from
hens whose ancestors for many
generations have laid a small num-
Der of eggs. which last year laid
1876 eggs worth $3.50. The other
flock comes from hens whose an
cestors were selected for genera
tions because they were the best
layers; this flock laid. on the aver
age, 219 eggs worth $694.
Both f1ocks were of the same lage
and were grown and handled the
same way, but the difference due
to breeding was S3.04 worth of eggs
for each hen. One recommendation
of the college is to buy chicks from
disease-free and high-eggAaying
strains. Other recommendations
and suggestions for growing better
pullets are available from your
county agricultural agent or from
the poultry department at the Col
lege of Agriculture at Ithaca.

CAPONS USUALLY
HIGHER PRICED
Operation Is Favored When
Cockereis Cannot Be Sold.

The production of capOns is
good practice for poultry flock own
ers, according to Oliver n. Sum-
mers, extension pOultryman of the
University of Wyoming, as capOns
usually bring higher prices than
other classes of poultry.
Surplus cockerels should he ca
pOnized % when cockerels cannot
be sold to good advantage as brOil
ers, (2) when a supply of fresh
killed chickens is desired later, 81
cOckerelS are sometimes capOniZed
when natural means are used for
brOOding because most capons
Leghorns and such excepted) will
brood chickens as well as a hen.
The unsexing of cockerels is sim
pie and easy and losses in slips and
birds that may he killed should be
very small, to per cent, though,
of course, this depends upon con-
ditions such as light, age, whether
or not the cOckerels have been
starved before the operation, the
experience of the operator, etc.
Though the increases in size or
weight of a capOn over cOckerel
is considerable il is not as great as
is sometimes claimed and consid-
cred, it being about one-fifth. How
ever, this increased weight is made
on less feed as the disposition of
a capOn is quiet and dOcile, while
that of a cockerel is aggressive and
QuarrelSOme. Because the market
prefers large capOns and top prices
are paid for capOns weighing Z
pounds or more, the larger breeds
and varieties are most desirable.
However, because the Asiatics and
Giants are slow growing and late
developing. birds belonging to the
medium classes as the Plymouth
Rocks, Rhode Island Reds and Wy
andottes make the hest capOns. Be
cause of their smaller size ii usu-
ally does not pay to capOniZe Leg
horns or cOckerels of the lighter
breeds.
Because the best market and de-
mand for capOns comes between
Christmas and Easter and because
it takes about ten months TO grow
and finish a capon properly, cocker
esl should be caponized in June.
July and August.
Often information as TO the time
to caponiZe cOckerels is given ac-
cOrding to age or size, but it is
more desirable that the stage of
development be taken into consid-
Grafton because some cOckerels de-
velOp much faster than others of
the same lot. Because of the linn
tied time and space they cannot be
given here. but details as TO instru-
ments. the operation, care and feed
ing of capons. etc. may he OBJ

culture of the University of Wy

Confne Male Birds

What kind of eggs are you go
ing to take to market this sum
mer? You can do lot to keep up
the summer demand for eggs by
the care you give them on the
farm. Be sure the hens have plenty
of clean, airy nests, well-filled with
litter. One nest for every five or
six hens is sufficient. Gather the
eggs twice a day. Shut up the
broody hens every night. Shut up
or sell male birds. Infertile eggs
cannot spoil. Store the eggs in a
cool cellar if possible.

Watery Egg Whites May
Be Caused by Bad Feed

There are many theories and
very few facts on watery whites of
eggs and the cause. One theory is
that it is caused by a poorly bal
anced ration. Another theory is
that chickens that are allowed to
get too hot in the summer time
and that try to cool off by drink
ing an excessive amount of water
are likely TO lay eggs with watery
whites. Still another theory is that
eggs that are shipped or agitated
in any way before the animal heat
leaves the egg are likely to show
watery whites. Another theory, with
a little basis in fact, is that watery
whites may be caused in part by
breeding.

VALUE OF THE LOCAL PAPER

Of what value is a newspaper to it's community?
 A newspaper can't build a town; it cant make good one out of bad one; it can't make town crow; it can't bring factories; it can't improve the schools: it can't rebuild churches and enlarge the congregations. It can't defeat bad candidates for office and it can't elect good ones, at least not very often.
 But a newspaper can encourage age people. A newspaper can be the eyes and the voice of the com munity. It can watch the trend of affairs; it can note the important things other communities are do- ing; it can keep the people posted and then it can lead the way.
 A newspaper published by a sue cassful man or woman can't point the way, it can show how things can be plished, it can create a wholesome atmosphere in which people can realize the beauties and joy of life, and then progress is made.
 Can any other institution ren- dsr greater service to humanity?
