THE BULGE IN COTTON.

Cotton today is worth in Calves.

bale this time last year. 1t would
be too much, to lexpect that this
ratio will be preserved throughout
the season. Yet il may be, or may
even be increased. Certain il is
TIA at With judicious marketing high
prices will be maintained.
Just now the farmer will be wise
to sell all the cotton ho can posi-.
bly, command. Spinners are fight
ing for it and there is so little
available that selling can not serl-
ously depress prices. BY the last
of the month the new crop will be-
gin TO materialiae in considerable
volume, and in October heavy
marke ting may depress prices.
The best judgment Of unbiased
cotton men is that the present crop
will fall short of the worlds de.
mands. i, rests with the farmers,
therefore, to say whether they will
reap the full reward of the limited
supply. Feeding the market care.

The premium Of $40 a bale over
the average Of last seasons short
crop will mean $40, 10000 to 500.
100000 increased returns or adj
ditional profits to Texas produc-
ers. There was a fair profit in last
years crop. The profit in this
years crop, il it is properly hand.
led, will be comparative opulence
for many a man who has been
struggling on low prices for the
last decade.
Prosperity for the farmer means
prosperity for all classes, and with
such a prosperity new industries
and Enterprises may be safely
launched. The grain farmer of the
west has had three good years

North Carolina has this year
granted charters to thirty one new
cotton mills and not less than ten
mills have been built IN that state
during the year. Mills are now op-
Grated in fifty-two counties of that
state. They are paying magnif-
cent dividends and furnishing prof
liable employment to thousands OF
people. Arkansas is a much better
state for the operation of cotton
mills. We are certainly not avail

opportunities for increasing the
wealth of our state when we fail to
secure some of the new cotton mills.
