A Short Sea Island Acreage.

The Savannah Morning News Of
last Thursday had the following r, :
port Of the sea island cotton situa-
ton:
"In marked contrast to the upland
cotton situation, where an increased
acreage Of 10 per cent. is generally
admitted is the present status of
sea island.
Factors and dealers in the latter
staple are inclined to the belief that
instead Of an increased acreage,
there will be Il slump in the new sea
island crop.
This condition has been brought
about by the present high price of
uplands as compared with last sea-
son and the consequent desire on the
part of farmers to supplant the long
staple With the short staple cotton.
"While the season is yet too
young to prognosticate upon, it is
an admitted fact among sea island
men that there will be q falling off
in the acreage, especially in 0eor'
.gia,
"Advices already received indi-
cate that the counties of Mitchell,
Colquitt, Worth, Thomas and De-
catur will transfer their allegiance
back to the upland product. These
Georgia counties, up to the year OF
o cent cotton, ls93-94, devoted
their attention almost exclusively TO
tho culture Of uplands, but owing to
tie low price Of that cotton in those
years planted sea islands. The cor
respondence o. local factors shows
that they will again return to their
tirst love.
1.-The indications are That Florida
may raise a few more bales OF sea
Islands than formerly, especially in
the region contiguous to Tallahassee,
but the increase will be very small,
while IL is not expected that South
Carolina will add to her acreage.
"The present weather has been
especially hard on sea island culture.
"Gen. w. W. Gordon said yes
terday; The cool days and nights,
and especially the high winds that
have existed for several weeks past,
together with the absence of rainS
has been very disastrous to the crop.
"In many sections OF the state re-
planting will be necessary The
sea island crop, he continued, is late
IL not necessarily short.
