TO CONTROL PRICES OF SEED.
Cotton Oil Manufacturers Confer. Shortage of
Seed May Close Many Mills.
(By the Associated Press. J

Jackson, Miss, Oct. 11.-Numerous con-
ferences are being held by the cotton
oil manufacturers of Mississippi with a
view to controlling prices to be paid for
seed. The mills are now paying SIG per
ton and as the crop is fifty per cent
short, it is the general belief that the
price will advance to at least $1S within
the next few weeks.
The manufacturers, say, however, they
cannot afford to pay more than the pres
ent price and that they are losing money
on seed products at the prevailing figures.
Many OF the mills are holding their oil
in the expectation of an advance. 1t is
thought two-thrds of the mills will be
closed down by Christmas on account of
the seed shortage.
