ROUND AND SQUARE BiLES.
Some Figures that VIII be of
Intere est TO Farmers.

Interest 10 Farmers.
Great interest is taken IN the dis
cu.sion as to the relative merits f
tho round and square cotton ba'c,
and the following letter fiom an
operator on the square bale for
twenty-five years, giving his cxrcri
encc with what is called the "a b,
III standard bale Of cotton" gives
some facts and figures" which arc
more or less in point:
Il have been operating this size
press box for twenty-five years, and
1t has always given perfect satisfac>
ton. | heartily disapproyc the
method Of the round bale trust. \
5000 bale gnner operating one ofthc
round bale presses would III ten years
collect from his farmer patrons and
pay the round bale people $50, 600
rental on one Of their presses, the
ac ual cost of which | estimate to br
not more than $500. They agree,
however, to give this amount back to
the ginners patrons in the price o!
the cotton, SO packed, as compared
with the same grade of cotton put up
IN the olj style. Will they fulfill this
promise. and bow long will they do
50? They claim that cotton put up
in round bales, on account of the
density, less insurance, ETC., is worth
Is cents per hundred pounds more
than it is put Up in the old style bale
Their determinations, as | under.
stand the matter, are not against the
~ by 81 standard bale, but against
the old style, irregular size bales.
Let US stop and figure what there
really is in the so.called 10 cents
per hundred pounds increase in the
price Of cotton, aud not accept with
out questioning the seemingly plaus-
ible calculations of the round bale
advocates.
Take "A by 81 standard bale
for example: Lint cotton, 47S pounds;
bagging and ties, % pounds; to,al
500 pounds at & cents, $50. TO
this add at least so cents per bale
lower ocean rates obtainable on
account Of increased density in COM
preston, so cents; total, S30.50.
Less ginning, 81; less cost hagging
and ties, Go cents; total, $1.60. For
this bale the farmer receives $3.50.
For comparison take the same
amount of cotton packed in round
bales: Lint cotton, 47S pounds;
bagging and ties, pounds; total, 1888
pounds at Gas, $3l.15. Less royalty,
ST. less cost of ginning, 81; less cost
of bagging and ties, 40 cents; total,
81 40. For these bales the farmer
receives $2o.75.
"From these figures you will SEQ
that the round bales do not net the
formcr as much as he would receive
for the same amount of cotton packed
in the square bale, notwithstanding
the fact that the 45 cents per
hundred, pounds is duly allowed the
round bales in this calculation. -
