causing decline of 4a5 points and an

unduly fay orable to a large yield, in fact
it clearly points to 7,75O,0OO bales, but
favorable aspects are probably exagger-
ated in rivalry with reports from the
signal service controlled by the war de,
partment which has, to the advantage
of the bulls, greatly overdrawn adverse
weather accounts. President Harrison

THE COTTON CROP.
The December Report tO the De-
Dartment of Agriculture.

WASHINGTON, December 10.-The De.
cember cottonreport of the department
of agriculture relates to prices on the
plantations. Correspondents refer in,
cidentally to the progress of harvesting,
and the status of the ungathered crop.
All report late maturity in the northern
belt. Early frosts arrested the develop
ment of bolls and seriously reduced the
harvest, in the larger and more South
ern areas. While killing frosts were re-
ported in some localities in October,
losses were neither severe nor general
from that cause. In the most productive
portion of the belt, killing frosts are
rarely mentioned as occurring until the
last week of November. The season may
therefore be considered a long one,
counter-balancing measurably the late
development of the plant. The top crop
is Just considered fairly abundant, and
very general mention is made in lower
latitudes of the burden of bolls yet un.
opened with continuance of weather as
good as that of the first week of Decem
ber
Weather for picking has been compare,
lively favorable, and the lint is generally
bright aad clean, though not everywhere
of full length.
Prices are little better than those OF
last December. Farm prices average as
follows: Virginia, s.3 cents per pound
North Carolina, So; South Carolina
SO; Georgia, SO; Florida, (upland)
S.5; Alabama, SO; Mississippi, SO;
Louisiana, 81; Texas, 9.4; Arkansas
50; Tennessee, S.3.
Quality and nearness to markets al,
feet the average slightly on small farms
Cotton is sometimes sold in the seed al
relatively lower prices, especially in parts
of Florida and Texas.
