pound, and the total return for lint and
seed of sea island cotton was $2S.65, which
gave the planter a net profit of $3.50 per
acre. The planters that report a profit in
the raising of upland cotton produced 1853
pounds per acre, while those that reported
a loss produced only 176 pounds. The effect
of the use of fertilizers in the raising of
cotton is very distinctly disclosed and the
general result is that in proportion as the
quantity of fertilizers used include the profit
of increase the profit of raising cotton
1t is disclosed by the investigation that
cotton is produced TO a limited extent, but
at high rate of profit by means of irrl-
cation in western Texas and in the south
western corner of Utah. In Texas irrigation
had the effect of producing 512.4 pounds OF
lint per acre, which is 1908 pounds greater
than the average for the whole state. The
work of the department in this investigation
covers the cost of cotton production as far
back as 1882, but the statements previous to
1876 were mostly individual estimates. For
1876 many special inquiries were made by
former statistician of the department and
these esta blished the cost of producing the
lint per pound in gold at 4S3 cents. One of
the remarkable results of the investigation
is the comparative cost of marketing cotton
in 1910 and in 1897 The comparison is item
lied and shows that in 1910 it cost SlS.15 to
market a bale of cotton from America to
Liverpool while in 1897 the cost was $3.50.
