Cp Because of Excessive Sellin?- -Bulls Expect Higher Dcvel. New York, March 10.?Though In the forepart of tho week prices of cotton gave away they have lately re covered, mainly because of the re cent overdoing of tho short side. The short interest In October had become especially large and a hot wave in Texas the other d?y led many of these shorts to cover with a precipitancy that resulted in a sharp advance. Hulls postulate higher prices in the belief that every bale available will be wanted before tho end of the season ami that August P.l will see a visible supply in the country nearly a half million bales ?maller than at the same time last year, no matter what com plaints may be made about trade now or in the meantime. Lancashire, for that matter, is reporting rather bet ter business; silver has advanced in Hondon and the Dank of England has reduced its rate of discount. Still are Bullish, Meantime bull Interests appear to be very bullish on May and October, even if they are short of July and August. A leading mining man is still a bull, a large Texas operator who has been here a year is as Hrm as ever in his adherence to the bull side. Large merchants are believed to be strongly of the opinion that the May option is destined to reach much higher prices; spinners are buying to some extent and the exports thus far tliis season are about 1,7r>0,000 bales larger than during a like period last season. At the same time many be lieve that the crop Is not more than fiOO.OOO bales larger than the last one, if it is that. Predict Small Crop. There are those indeed who think that the final ginning report on March 20 will reveal a crop this season not much over 11.7f>0,000 bales of spin nable cotton. Considerable stress Is laid on this condition. On the other hand, trade for the most part is dull spot markets seem sluggish; yarns are depressed, some mills in Georgia and the Carolinas of '.ate have been re ported in an embarrassed condition; the failure of a cotton firm in Barce lonn, lor >2?p,n00 was reported the other day; the culling of an extra ses sion of congress for April 4 is more or less of a disturbing factor in the opin ion of some since it may cause more or less interruption to trade and af ford a new opportunity for anti-op tion legislation. The massing of 20,000 troops on the Mexican frontier is also cited as u possible disturbing factor. Now and then some of the big bulls havo ap parently been free sellers on bulges. The general tone of late, however, has be, n more encouraging to the believers in higher prices. * Where the Onc-Ilorsc Fanner * * Loses Out. * * * ?Iii***??*** Says ouo of our correspondents: "l rarely Hnd that my two-horse ten ants more than double tho crops of my One-horse tenants on double the land and with double the stock." There fore, he concludes that one-horse farm ing is best. It seems never to have occurred to him that the labor of the man In the case is worth anything. Does not any man who will think for a minute know that if tin; man with two horses does produce only twice as much as the man with one horse, he Is tar ahead of him in what he receives for his own labor. F.ven if a man's la bor is worth no more than that of a horse, liiere aie I wo workers in the one-horse layout and only three In tho two-horse. Hence an increase of 50 per cent in gross returns will even matters Up, Now, there isn't a farmer in the South who doesn't regard his labor as oT more value than that or a mule, nnd, of course, he is right about it. There may be, as We have said, limes when a man must do his work with one horsgj hut wo can not see why any man should be willing, for that reason, to consider himself a "one horse farmer" and be content to re main so. it isn't a matter of pretty theories or ingenious arguments, but. as we have said, a nice matter of mathematics. The more hoi-set the larger the farmers' earnings in prac tically ever) state In the I'nion: and the fewer horses to the man. the more expensive the work done whenever other conditions aro equal, Against such incontrovertible facts as these, all the theories of those who argue for one-horse farming amount to very little.?Raleigh (N. c.)

Like all other lines of live stock rais ing. It is especially receiving atten tion in tho area being invaded by the boll weevil. It is simply astonishing what capacity this little bug?the boll weevil?has for making men think and even act. All lines of live stock ore receiving more attention than ev er before and poultry Is coming in for its share of Increased attention. Hut. strange r.s it may seem the great er part of this incrense in poultry In terest is among the people in the towns and to a much less degrc? among the farmers. ThlM appears to Us wrong. Surely there i? no place where the oppor tunities for raising strong, healthy poultry nt a minimum of cost, are bo| good as out on the farms. Not only is this true as regards the production of utility poultry?eggs and birds for food?but It is especially true of the production of fancy poultry nnd birds for brooding. By much care, constant work and intelligent feeding nnd management, good poultry is produced on the small lots In or near the towns; but it re quires more intelligence nnd poultry knowledge to raise good birds under such conditions than it does to ac complish the same results on the farm Why then. Is most of our best poultry raised in the small towns or near the) cities? The range which may be given the birds on the farm, except perhaps dur ing the breeding season, is almost un limited and this means a variety of | feed, such as poultry requires, and ample exercise, two things most es sential to tho economical production of vigorous birds. It re quires some knowledge to raise good poultry and this can only be obtained by reading and studying the experience of others as set down in poultry journals or agricultural pa pers and iu books, and by actual per- I sonnl experience in the handling of the birds. !n the past this has been thought too small a business for the farmer, but if that is still the idea, we insist that the women nnd children should be given an opportunity to add this additional industry to the farm. Nor would we limit them to the pro duction of eggs nnd the growing of | birds to be used as food; but would insist that where the Inclination exists they be giveu a chance to produce the best, to be sold as breeders, or eggs to be sold for hatching?Raleigh (N.
