The farmers like to hear such talk
as the following, from the Jackson
News: "The conviction is firm in
the minds of a great many people
that cotton is going higher. The
present price of the staple is high
but the indications are that it will
go higher. Mr.. Daniel J. Sulley,
late of the bull clique of New York,
who boosted cotton to such high po-
sition is out in a circular in which
he takes the position that cotton will
go higher than it is now. Ha says in
this circular that the manufacturers
of England realize this and are now
in the market for cotton, but he asks
if the manufacturers in this country
realize this fact. In this section there
are a number of farmers who are
holding their cotton for better prices,
and the chances are mighty good that
they will get it. Most all the crop
will have been picked by December %.
