The condition Of cotton since
the government report estimating
the condition Of the cTep to be
oyer 81 per cent has materially
changed for the worst. In some
sources which are considered good
authority it has been doubted if
the condition OF the crop at any
time ever justified the estimate of
the government. At this time
reports show a great deterioration
and unless things change for the
better in the next few days the
crcp will not exceed the crops Of
the past two years. Rain has
fallen over the entire cotton belt
Ill such quantities "a to cause seri-
on damage to the plant. During
the latter part Of July and all the
month of August to the present
time cotton has added but little, il
anything, to It's fruit. Only two
weeks more Of this month remain
III which time the plant must put
on the greater part Of the crop if
we gather 81 this fall.
