The weather has been generally favorable. Large spot intoreets have N**?n steady sellers. Liverpool and the continent have sold. Memphis has sent a good many selling orders. Crop advices from rexai, Alabama. Oeorgia end the Carolina* and other part* of the belt have In the main been cheerful. As a role the spot demand has been disappointing. Spinners, seeing futeres rapidly de? clining have general.y been pursuing a valtint policy The weakness at one time in the stock market at home and abroad, the rise In bank rates of discount In Kurope, and the more or less disturbed conditions of war between Italy anJ Turkey have Bund a more or less depressing effoct.

Five Acren of Green Corn Being Cut up anil Storni In Silo i'or Winter Vee. The first and only silo In this eoun- j ty, ?o far as Is known at the Item or!!^*?, that belonging to Mr. L. 1. Fan.at and recently built on his place on the Wed,getield road about 5 miles from this city, is? being tilled with green corn cut up line and in a few days it will be ready to be j closed until winter when the doors will be opened and the feed taken out dally fyf hogs and cattle. The silo Is a seemingly simple and easily constructed contrivance and if , it proves a success no doubt it will be copied by a large number of the farmers throughout this county. J who are themselves too skeptical of j its merits to try it. It has been found to operate success- J fully in the West and recently several j have been erected In various parts of : this State for the storing of green | food for cattle and hogs during the j winter, when they cannot easily tlnd ' much food In their pastures. The building on Mr. Per ?tfs place \ was erected hy Mr. A. E. Aidls, who has charge of he place for Mr. Par rott, after he ttad visited Clemson College this summer and carefully studied out the details of the silos built there. It is made of best grade j lne timber cut tongue and groove, and is circular In shape. It Is erect? ed on a concrete base in order to in? sure Its stability and that no water might enter from the ground. The building Is air and water proof and will hold nearly 67 tons of the stuff cut up fine. A small gasoline ??gioa is heing used in cutting up the corn, stalks, ears, fodder and all going in togeth? .i to till up the silo. The stuff is WOt and packed as It Is dumped, hy means of a circular chain with cross piece* attached every few inch s which carry the cut pieces of corn Bp and pack them into the silo. The entrances to the silo will be dosed and opened only when the food stuff is wanted. Except a small quantity of ths lop layer of the stuff all of the sii ix will keep green all winter and fur? nish the bo-st kind of feed for hogs and cattle* 411 or the sppai ii ns ? loi Kin*, [ ? th' silo as w ?

Mr. Parroft's plan is to feed a number of hogs and cattle on the silage this winter, the hogs to be killed during the winter and the cattle to be sold for beef next spring. It has been found wherever the silo has been used that the keeping of a silo and the feeding by means of it Is much cheaper than the feeding of cattle through the winter with cotton Seed nulls and meal.

The union presidents say the men have not weakened in their intention to force the railroads to recognize their newly established federation of shop employes by means of strike, and more than 90 per cent of the men will quit work. The fight, the-v say, is likely to prove long drawn out. The railroads, on the other h;md, say the workers do not want to strike and that a great majority will refuse to leave their work when the hour is reached. The railroads are in good shape to stand d strike right now, according to loom! officials. A retrenchment or? der recently issued reduced the num? ber of employes nearly 23 per cent and there is a sufficient number of idle men in all crafts to permit the roads to keep their shops running even If Sil the men go out. This was denied today by President Kline of the blacksmiths' union who said the men the railroads are count Ing on to till the places of strikers are men who were laid off recently and who are union men. and would refuse to work during a strike. The strike order came after consul? tation over the long distance tele? phone President Kline of the black? smith here, Ryan of the carmen and Franklin of the botlermakers at Kan? sas City and O'Connell of the machin? ists of Davenport.
