Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January 14.-Scattered
hedging today kept cotton prices slight
" below last nights closing levels dur
ing most of the session, but pressure
proved limited and a recovery toward
the close brought a slight Improvement
Final quotations were unchanged to 2
points higher than yesterday, under a
moderate volume OF business. Spots
were unchanged at 6.25.
Monthly figures of the Genus Bu-
reau show that domestic mills used
100000 bales of cotton during Decem-
Der. compared with 504 900 in November
and El5,G00 during Decembcr, 1881. n
elusive Of Winters, mills con1umed O
total Of 2,603,000, compared with g.
479,000 during the first five months
last season. or an excess of approxi-
mately 1875 GOO bales. Mills held i $50
600 on January l, compared with $780,
600 last year, while stock in warehouses
aggregated 10,350.000. as against TO-
4l4,o00 a year ago. Exports amounted
to 100000 for the month compared
with l,l63,000, last year, making a total
for five months Of 4,2470e0, or 209, 900
over last season.
The important feature of the report
was the fact that for the first time in
several years the warehouse stock is
now actually less than the previous year.
A similar condition has developed in
the worlds visible supply of all kinds,
which is now actually less than the
figures On the corresponding dates of
the previous season, something that has
not happened since August, 1929
Week end figures showed another de-
crease in the worlds visible supply of
American, so that the total is now
9,572, 900 bales, or only $1,000 over last
season, after starting with an excess
Of 100000 over last season on August

Commodity Price
Changes of Week
BY III. ", McGILL,

Editor McGin Commodity Service, Inc.
AUBURNDALE, Mass, January IA
AL commodities during the second
week in January registered decline
which broke through the lows Of June
and late December, 1882. The degree
of price weakness was limited and FOR
over siz-month period prices have
shown unusual stability, particularly In
view of Industrial stagnaticn and COM
plicated international relationships.
During the course Of the past week six
rrcups out a. "a individual indices cd-
vanced. six declined, while two re-
NAMED unchanged.
Industrial List.
Industrial prices we're one of the six
groups to advance rejecting moderate
strength in the building material group,
hides and leather, non-ferrous metals,
paint materials and vegetable oils. AS
the new year opens, production OF raw
materials as well as finished goods Is
holding at low ebb The severity OF this
decline is well Illustrated by the state
ment that many ma industries, such
as pig iron, steel, cement. building and
cooper. must increase their physical
volume Of output on en- average OF 100
per cent to equal the poc- yc2r, 1881.
Agricultural prices "2"7rded decided
price weakness, despite 80 substantial
increase ii the price a. H'ha.t, Sugar
and GARY products declt- ID .charply.
Live stock prices w1~2 iover due
largely to weakness in cctt,c. Hog prices
have not reacted to the efforts to place
this phase CT the live stock situation
under the allotment plan.
Fuels were fractionally lower, reflect
ing a slight decrease in the average
price of bituminous coal, fob. mines.
Petroleum quotations in all fields are
holding steady.
Non-ferrous metals weFe also frac-
tionally higher, due to increase in tin
and antimony. Practically all OF the
other metals held steady.
Fine textiles registered some decline
bus this was not the fault or raw cot
ton or wool. which have held steady
but due entirely to substantial price
weakness in silk.
Vegetable oils recorded more price
strength than any other group as lin
seed, cottonseed and china wood oil
advanced, placing this group II per cent
above the low of last GUNNER.
The six groups that averaged lower
for the week were agricultural products,
live stock, fuels, ferrous metals, paper
and pulp ana fine textiles. Thesgroups
that we're higher included industrla
products, building materials, hides anc
leather, ncn-ferrcuS metals, paint mate
rials and vegetable oils. Coarse tex

Grain Market

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, January IA. - Accom-
panied by sudden selling ascribed to
large professional trader, wheat prices
dropped late today, and stop loss orders
were forced into execution.
Most of the time previous, the wheat
market had an upward trend. tran
sient bulliSh factor was announcement
that 100000 bushels of American hard
Winter wheat had been sold for export
presumably representing an exchange
for wheat In more desirable position
than at the Seaboard.
Rallies in wheat soon carried the
market to above yesterdays finish. and
were associated with authoritative re-
ports domestic drought areas were ex-
tended, and big abandonment Of Winter
wheat was probable. Forecasts indi-
Gated no moisture relief was in sight
where most needed. Bulls emphasized
that records of previous years when
domestic crops started with a low con-
dition showed the yields seldom de-
veloped satisfactorily.
In some quarters, talk was heard
that would be more likelihood foreign
prices of wheat would advance than
that domestic market would decline,
and that wheat primary receipts were
but little more than half of the total
year ago. Dearth of future delivery
offerings today, except during briet
interval at the start, was noticeable
feature. Commission houses readily
took care of whatever quantities were
available from pit spectators. Corn
and oats were easy owing to signs that
corn prices we're still somewhat out
of line for export business
Packers buying strengthened pro-
visions.
Wheat closed unsettled, 3sA under
yesterdays finish, corn A-1s down
oats unchanged to 1s-A of, and pro-
visions unchanged to a rise of 5 cents.

Brokers' Comment

NEW YORK, January l4.-Commis-
sion house opinion on the stock market
remains largely bu1lish. Nest commen-
tators today thought dullness would be
replaced by greater activity on the
up side.
Hornblower g. Weeks-We continue
to feel that current oullnesS will shortly
give way TO increased activity and
higher prices.
James E. Bennett & Cove believe
the current period of dullness will termi-
nate in resumption of the uCtrend
Redmond g. Co-The action of the
tape would seem to indicate that
higher prices might be looked for next
week.
Thomson g. McKinnon-As more
evidence of business improvement comes
to hand with the more liberal invest
ment policy already indicated, we have
sound basis for higher level of stock
prices.
Jackson Bros, Bossel g. Co.-The
reaction from the extreme top hfs been
of nominal proportions and, in cur
opinion, is not inconsistent with pri-
mary upward market movement.
Frazier Jelke 6, Co.-We believe long
positions should be maintained and thai
each period of moderate weakness pro-
vides q favorable opportunity to in
crease holdings.
| Shields & Co.-There are continued
signs that the market will hold to the
trading area established in the past
| several weeks, so that some further set
back may be realized unless unexpected
good news develops that will change
sentiment.
| Hamershlag Borg g. Co.--Develop-
ments in Washington are Of paramount
| importance and great confidence is not
! yet warranted en- this basic.

Up Stalks And
Control Boil WeeVil

With the feeding and breeding
places destroyed multitudes Of cot
ton boil weevils will either starve
before cold weather or die during
the hibernaton period.
Cotton should be picked as
rapidly as possible and the stalks
destroyed at once for best results"
says c.. H. Brannon, extenson en-
tomologist at State college. "This
not only starves out the adult wee
vii but it also DESTROYS. many of the
young, immature insects
Brannon suggests hat the work
be carried on as a community pro-
ject as this will keep all fields clear
but, if this is impossible, he urges
every individual farmer to plow up
the stalks as soon as picking is COM
pleted. The destruction on indi-
vidual farms will greatly benefit
the farmer due to the migratory
habits of the weevil he says.
Where weather conditions or
other contingencies make it i'm
possible to pillow up the stalks the
grower should turn in cattle or
sheep to Craze. While not as far
reaching in results as plowng under
the grazing will destroy some Of the
feeding ground and many of the
young weevils.
The earlier the destruction Of
cotton stalks the fewer weevils
the following spring says Brannon.
The immature insects are thus de-
stroyed which will mean fewer
weevils to emerge from Information.
The squares and bolls left on the
stalk are also destroyed and many of
the adult weevils will starve before
the Information period.
Brannon therefore urges all cot
ton growers to plow up stalks as
soo as possible and save that
money hat would otherwise be
spent next year for calcium arse
nate.
