New York There wan a quiet tone
to the cotton market during the en-
lire week but the undertone contin-
ued titrong due in Kreat part to the
further increase in buying for foreign
account and domestic investment in-
terest. To some dpgree however
the firmness was owing to the fact
that the new contract under the terms
of the- United States futures act is
really stronger than the trade lias
been generally led to believe. On the
medium grade which include Mid-
dling. Strict Middling and Godd Mid-
dling as well as Strict Low Middling
it hap been discovered that the new
government standards are wortli 33
or more points over the old standard
of classification. In addition to this
it is necessary to consider the stipula-
tion of the staple which calls for at
least 7 8 of an inch. While this re-
quirement doest not affect deliveries
from such sections as Texas Oklaho-
ma or Arkansas it has a decided in-
fluence on tenders from the eastern

portion of the belt Another feature
that should be considered In regard
to the new contract Is the single cer
tlficate provision which makes It pos-
sible for the holder of contracts of
cotton In the local stock to withdraw
a certain number of bales and re
place these withdrawals without being
forced to take out certificates for the
full contract. There Is no question
that these three features alone demon
strate the enhanced value of the new
contract and as repeatedly pointed
out In these advices the New York
market Is now as never before the
best spinners' market of the world
Kvidence is coming to hand daily of
large acreage being devoted to winter
wheat In the important cotton produc
ing territory. If this tendency as is
likely is carried on to apply to corn
it looks as if cotton acreage would be
decreased to a greater extent than Is
even now anticipated. The acreage
devoted to corn will depend to a con
sidernbie extent upon the relative
prices of the two commodities corn
and cotton when the cotton planting
season arives. If In the early part of
the new year we find cotton prices
still below Die cost of production and
corn at or above the present price
lever there unquestionably will be a
strong incentive to plant corn. It
goes without saying of course that if
the price of cotton remains low and
the price of corn remains high this
incentive will be Intensified.
More and more attention is being
given to the export demand which Is
Increasing as rapidly as shipping fa-
cilities can be secured. This demand
conies not alone from Germany where
the need for our cotton is great hut al-
so from English ports where stocks
of cotton are low and manufacturing
Interests on the mend. All reports
from domestic cotton goods districts
are favorable. Activity lA increasing
and tills applies to nearly all lines
but particularly to print cloths and
staple converted goods.
The cotton situation can be summed
up in a few words: The present sup-
ply Is known demand is steadily in-
creasing and from all indications can
be expected to continue to Increase
while the prospects for next year's
crop strongly point to a reduction that
if consumptive factors develop as in-
dicated should leave a carry-over at
the end of next year little above nor-
mal. Futures recently have had a
fair advance and reactions from time
to time ar in order; but as cotton
is still selling below the cost of pro-
duction there would appear to be lit-
tle risk in making purchases on the
setbacks.

Calomel acts like dynamite on a
sluggish liver. When calomel comes
into contact with sour bile It crash-

nausea.
If you feel bilious headachy con-

go to your druggist and get a 50-

If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; be-
sides it may salivate you while if
you take Dodson's Liver Tone you
will wake up feeling great full of
ambition and ready for work or play.
