COTTON DOING WELL
IN FLORIDA.

Jacksonville. Fla. June 21.-Secr.oa
Director Mitchell OF the Weather 81
reau, in his crop report for the week
ending yesterday, given out to-day,
says of the crops in Florida:
The week was generally favora be
for work and the growth of crops. The
need of rain over the western district
and portions of the northern is becoIn-
ing urgent. where old corn. in many
cases, is beyond recovery. Cotton. as
a rule, is advancing; it is being well
cultivated and IS fruiting rapidly. In
the early planted fields squares and
blooms are numerous; prospects are
good. Showers over a portion OF the
Central district, and the we'll distrib-
uted rains in the southern district
proved of marked advantage to citrus
fruits, which are filing out; dropping
has practically ended. The crop how
ever, will be less than ANTICIPATED
The late rains helped pineapples; this
crop was cut short by the drought
Cane and minor crops are doing well"

Say Worst Month for Crop Yet to
Come.

Tome
New York, June H.-The weekly
weather report was not at all as fla
yorable as had been expected. Per-
haps because there were few COM
plants an there Is bound TO be on an
acreage OF 32.0O0.0OO planted to cotton
the summary picked out the poor spots
in order to have something to COM
nent upon. But the effect upon the
market was just the same and prices
recovered rather sharply, as every one
had sold out and gone short. Shorts
had "A hard time getting i'm cotton on
the advance. and Il was not until the
prices had reacted about IS points that
some selling was INDUCED in. The
way New Orleans threw cotton over
board at the opening would incline
one TO the opinion that the market had
about reached bottom for the time
being. II Is a very risky thing to
sell cotton on declines at 91z cents with
the worst month in the year still be-
fore the crop. We have not had any
boil weevil talk yet, and we will have
a lot OF II later on. It does not seem
as though IT was time yet to buy cot
ton for a long pull. but the action OF
the market to-day gives conclusive ev-
idence that IL lis not safe to sell short
except on reactions. AS long as the
weather keeps good tn market will
gradually work lower Yet. after each
decline Of "A few points there will be
plenty OF opportunities to sell on a
bulge and below 91z cents, purchases on
any declines are likely to return a
profit.
