able to command very high nrice for 1t,
and for this reason we havo advised our
friends to buy August contracts. We

under conditions that will not admit Of

ing upon tho question of the next crop.
there arc two factors which ore already
looming into Importance.
One isSsl scarcity of cotton seed. Dur
ing tho past year cotton seed has adj

We are advised. at SIS per ton, At this
price turner's favo been tempted to sell
very largely o product which, twenty
years ago, was without commercial value
and there is q general complaint OF the
scarcity and poor qualitysof seed obtainn-
bic. Another important factor which must
not be overlooked Is that tho winter up
to date has been one OF exceptional mild
AtSSS, eiHu otuuS lllc meteorological; re-
cords shows that in such cases the uyer-
age of winter Temperature Is generally re-
duced to the normal by an extension of
winter weather late into the spring.
While. of course these remarks suggest
but possibilities, 1t must BIO apparent to
the thoughtful mind that. In Wow Of these
possibilities and with supplies of cotton
as mueh reduced us they are certain to
be at tho commencement of next season
1t is an operation involving great temer-
ity to be Short of the new crop positions.
finally, We desire again TO urge, upon tho
dom of restricting the acreage devoted to
next years crop, and would repeat the
mathematician formula which, we hope
all farinersfwill Keep continuously before
them during this planting season. namely
II. 100000 bales of cotton at cents, yields

0oO What is true OF li,0o0 Coo bales. as
compared with S000,010 bales, is equally
true of 1l-bales ms compared with bales.
in addition to which tho reduced cost of
producing the smaller quantity and the
opportunity of planting profitable crop
on the acreage. not seeded in cotton, will
probably make the measure of compare
tive profit much larger. than is shown by
the above figures.
