Worm, Eating the Cotton.

New Orleans, September 3.-The reports
received in this city indicate that
the worms in myriads are eating up the
cotton. From Mississippi in all parts

world the cry is for paris green and lon

In Louisiana clear on up to Shreveport and
from Vicksburg to Monroe and throughout
that section of the country the accounts

A canvass of the leading drug houses

The cotton season of 1s9i-9j closed last
Saturday night ana the new season open
ed today. The receipts for August showed
a very great falling or and tended to give
evidence that the crop was either unusual
" late or that the planters were following
the advice of Commissioner Lane and
were holding their staple back for better
prices The prevailing belief is that q COM
bination of these two causes accounts for
the small receipts The receipts for last
month were 5o2 bales, about $50 of which
were marketed on SATURDAY.. The receipts
for the next preceding August We're 81
bales; for August, 1921 . 759 bales. for
August. 1890. 1926 bales. and for August
1872. only 4I3 bales
The total receipts for the year just
closed ran up to 1892 bales, against 49,
Sg5 for last year and 1ei,95S for the year
before that. The receipts for last season
were larger than those for any seasons
during the twelve years previous excepting
during 1891 and 1892.

The President of the Cotton Growers
Association Talks.

Huntsville. Ala. September 1.-(SpeciaL)-
Hon. Hector ID. Lane, president OF the
American Cotton Growers Protective AS
ISOLATION. was in the city today, and in an
interview with your correspondent touch
ing the prospect OF the present cotton crop
said:
If have just completed n trip through,
and a very fun investigation of the crops
i'm the Atlantic states, and find that my Is
innate of the Texas crop made from GAL
weston should be reduced from 25V9,0oo baleS
to 100000. This is occasioned by the con-
tinued droughts i'm parts of the state, ana
on account of the ravages Of insects, pests
etc In the states of Georgia, North and
South Carolina 1 find a decrease of the
acreage of about Is per cent, and falling
off in the use of fcrtiliZers of from ~ To ~
per cent which will cause n decrease in the
production Of about per cent. In addition
to those facts l find that fTcin weather dls-
aster insects. pests. etc. there IS failing
off in the state of Georgia from last years
product OF at least L. per cent, making
about IS per cent decrease from last year.
This estimate is based upon the average
length of the season and viii nuctuatc
slightly with the early and late date OF
frost, the crops being on an average of j.
days late. In the CarOlinas crop conditions
are a shade better than in Georgia. As t.
Alabama we will make between 60 and 20
of frost The weather conditions at present
are uupropitious all round. L feel very
much encouraged in reference to the intelil-
gent action that farmers viii take in mar
kcting their crop this season. My conVic-
tion is, that farmers viii make "A judicious
distribution OF thc.r crop throughout the
selling season, and VIII not rush it all into
the market at one time and thus give the
buyers the opportunity of debating prices
and I am encouraged in this conclusion by
the reelection that through the enforced
economy of the preceding hard times. 1arin'
ers owe less, have supplied themselves bet
ter by raising food crops, and are thus bet
ter Off i'm their condition to resist forced
sales than they have ever been. fhey nave
