NEW YORK, Sept. 81 P) -
Cotton futures rose to new seasonal
highs Friday to gains of as much
as $1.60 a bale in active dealings.
Broad buying was stimulated in
late trading by d combination OF
developments, including more ad-
verse private crop reports and con-
tinued strong prices at the primary
stock markets, which emphasized
a squeeze developing in desirable
cotton supplies this season.
The upward movement was re-
stricted until late in the session
when aggressive trade and outside
buying met only limited hedging
selling and profit taking. Final
prices, which were at or nea- the
best levels of the day, showed q
range of Sl.60 a bale higher to %

Exhibits At
TiraOnium Fair

Timonium Fair proved big event
for many Cecil Countians this year.
Fourth Club members, their parents,
open class dairy exhibitors and many
spectators travelled to the show all
during the week, and keenly observ-
ed the exhibits and demonstrations.
Robert and Richard Macdonald of
Rising Sun, did very well with their
All Black Angus steers, especially
when it is their first year for feeding
steers. Bob took twelfth place in the
heavyweight class and Richard took
fourteenth.
Perhaps the best showing from the
county was made in the open class
Jersey division. In the county herd
competition, Cecil took first place,
with Montgomery County taking sec
ond and Washington County third.
Mrs. H. B. Crowgey and Son showed
the Junior Champion Bull of the
show. Rich Neck Farms showed the
Senior and Grand Champion cow OF
the show, and had the first place hei-
fer calf. Mrs. H. B. Crowgey and Son
had the Junior Champion Female.
Mrs. Hoagland Gatess herd made a
fine showing throughout the show.
The Guernsey exhibits from Cecil
this year were limited to Mt Ararat
farms, but fair share of blue rib
bons did find their way back to Ce-
Gil. Mt. Ararat showed the Junior
Champion bull of the show.
Everyone agreed that the State
Fair made a fine comeback after its
three years of inactivity during the
war.
