THE COTTON CROP.
Summary Of The Tlmes-DemOCrat's Re-
ports for September.

The Times Democrat Of October
2nd presents its correspondents
reports on the history of the cot
ton crop during the month of Sep
tember. The consensus Of opin-
ion is to the following effect:
|. Taking the belt as a whole,
there has been a moderate deterio-
ration since the last report. The
crop is an exceedingly spotted
one, and the eventual outturn is
therefore unusually difficult to ap-
proximate at this time.
2. Some sections complain of
scarcity of labor, while others
seem to have an adequate supply.
3. As a rule, farmers seem dis
posed to sell, whenever they can
obtain ten cents in the interior.
4. Most correspondents say that
somewhat more seed cotton is re-
quired to make 500 pounds Of lint.
The average difference, as COM
pared with last year, is about 5
per cent.
The report Of the IDS Brook
haven correspondent is as follows:
Brookhaven, Miss, Sept. 3d.
The prospect for the yield of cot
ton stands practically where it did
the last of August, from Is to 80
per cent of normal on an acreage
reduced 20 to 25 per cent. Dry
weather with cool nights which
has prevailed almost the entire
month, has served mainly to aid
in picking and maturing the bolls
which were too large to shed when
the dry east winds and cool nights
set in the latter part of Au
gust, The top crop is very light,
indeed. No worms are reported.
Picking is we'll advanced for the
season of the year, but in some
localities there is scarcity of la
Dor, owing to hands leaving the
farms to work on the railroads and
at the sawmiIIs. The yield Of lint
from seed cotton is about the same
as last year. Farmers generally
express a determination not to let
loose their cotton for less than 10
cents, and a good proportion will
hold for still higher prices.
The receipts at Brookhaven for
the month of September are S21
bales short of the September re-
ceipts last year.

COTTON ASSOCIATION.
Work Of the Organization Cordially
Endorsed.

The Mississippi Cotton Asso-
citation has received a copy of the
following resolutions recently
adopted by the farmers of Pike
county at the meeting of the local
association:
First. We heartily endorse the
plans which have been devised
and the work that is being done
by the chief officers of the South
ern Cotton Association, and re-
commend the same to all cotton
growers.
Second. We endorse our Mis-
sissippi Secretary Woods and the
faithful work he is doing and
hereby promise him our co-opera-
tion, and thank him for the able
and earnest address delivered to a
very large and enthusiastic au-
dience at Topisaw Camp Grounds
on September 23rd.
Third. We insist on the prompt
payment of the three cents per
bale tax, and the holding Of cot
ton for eleven cents, provided
parties owning cotton are not in
volved to that extent that would
bring about a condition Of embar-
rassment between them and thos e
whom they owe.
Fourth. We further insist that
earnest effort be made by the Off
GERS and members of the county
and sub-civic divisions of the Pike
County Cotton Association to
thoroughly organize said county.
Fifth. We heartily endorse the
resolutions adopted by the Amite
County Cotton Association, and
recommend them to each and
every county within the bounds of
our organization.

Federal Court at Aberdeen Pretermit-
ted.

Judge Henry G. Niles an
nounces postponement of the
regular term of Federal Court for
the Aberdeen division of the
northern district of Mississippi,
due to assemble at Aberdeen on
Monday, October End. Tie court
will be convened by the United
States marshal on that date, but
Immediately adjourned, and jurors
and witnesses are being served
with notices that their presence
will not be required.
Judge Niles has found it neces-
sary to postpone the Biloxi and
Meridian court terms on account
of the quarantines, and the next
Federal Court session is due to
be held in jackson in November.
It is not likely that this term will
be postponed, for all of the quar-
antines will be raised by that time.
The docket for the Jackson dis
trict is exceptionally heavy, both
in civil and criminal cases, among
the latter being the 800 white
capper indictments against Frank
lin county citizens. 1t issquite
likely that the deputies from the
United States marshal's Office
will encounter considerable trou-
BILE serving processes for this
term, owing to the prevalence Of
yellow fever ID franklin county,
and it may be necessary to use an
axtra force for this purpose.
