The August report OF the cotton
crop, Porter & Macrae, of Memphis,
says: From S61 replies to inquiries
| sent to Arkansas, Mississippi, Ten
| nessee, Alabama and Texas, the re-
port Is that while the plant had late
start, it has made rapid growth, and
is more heavily boiled than at this
! time last year. From this Messrs.
Porter 81 Macrae conclude that unless
something occurs, there will be an
exceedingly full crop, and Is a cOnse-
IL
low. They advise economy in gath
ering the crop, and suggest that
pickers be paid fifty cents instead of
seventy-five cents per hundred, as it
looks as if the difference between
these prices (per bale will be about
the margin of profit to the farmer.
Rains & Son get all the good
things. Drink Iron Congo, the king
of health drinks, on draught at their
