GREATEST COTTON YEAR.
Value of Exports in 1900 the High
est ON Record.

|
| Cotton is again king" in the export
| record of the United States Dollar wheat
in 1888 brought the expectation of bread
! stufs far above that of cotton. but 10
| cent cotton in 1909 brings that agricultural
| product again into first place in the record
! of exports by single articles. The seven
months ending with JuiY, 1869, showed an
expectation of cotton amounting to $142-
5.6 0g1 while OF breadstuns the total ex-
Fortation during the same period was s13S,
304529, that of provisions SI06 SOS, sos. and
that OF mineral Oil. the next largest item,
$50, ,49S.151. The general group 'maEufac
lures" is larger than that OF cotton alone
but no single item. or even the group
'bTeadstuffs,' which includes wheat, corn.
oats barley rye, etc. equals cotton dur
ms he seven months ending with July,
1900
Cotton expectations and movements are
measured usually by what is termed the
/ cotton year" which ends with the month
of August. The Treasury Bureau OF Stat
istics has just received the record of
August expectations, and is thus able to
make up the figures for the cotton year
/ and compare them with those of the pre-
cedinG year. These reports, which are of
preliminary nature include about 9S per
cent Of the total exports of cotton and as
the comparison OF the present year is made
with the similar reports of preceding years,
+, the relative showing for the various years
is fair one study of the expectation
of cotton supplied by these figures shows
that the exports of raw cotton during the
cotton year ending with August, 1900 are
greater IN value than in any preceding
cotton year since 1882 and the average
prize per pound greater than on any oc-
casion since 1898, except in the year 1896
The average export price Of cotton in
August, 1900. was o. cents per pound, as
against an average of 5.6 cents during the
year 1899 and IS cents in 1895, and is
higher than the average OF any year since
1891
The following table shows the quantity
value. and average price per pound of cot
ton exported during each cotton year, -
