Cotton Crop Guessing.

The period i now at hand when

estimates are based on no very log
zeal or adequate collection of in

case guesses pure and simple. ~

would b. attached To- the opinion Of
the author, neither more nor less.
Even the Government and -emiOtii-
cial estimates by journals and assoc
Citations are little better than the in
dividual guesses, as they are very
rarely correct or anywhere near the
actual outturn.
The importance that Is frequently
attached to these estimates j. totally
unwarrantcd by their actual value
1t 80 happens that by accident an
individual estimate H. near the act
ual crop, but in the case of the
official or semiOilicial estimates they
are practically always wrong and
misleading. While, then, the indi-
vidual estimates may properly be
considered a. honest expressions of
invidual opinion and are entitled ID
the same consideration rs would at

maker as on individual based upon
his knowledge of the cotton indus
try and his opportunities for OBJ
servation, the official estimates are
always misleading and are usually
based upon Il system of collecting
information which il inherently bad
and more liable to be productive of
inaccurate information than n true
knowledge of the size of the yield.
The influence cXcrtcd upon the
market by these official estimates X
totally unjustified and the sooner
the trade realizes this fact the better.
OF course, this does not apply to
the ginncrs' reports Of the Cen
sus Bureau, which are compilations
of the reports from the thousands Of
gins throughout the South, showing
what these establishments have act

Such figures are statistics and not
mere estimates; in fact, the element

A well known travelling man who
visits the drug trade says he has often
heard druggists inquire of customers
who asked for a cough medicine,
whether il was wanted for a child or
an adult, and if for a child they al
most invariably recommend CHAM
berlain's Cough Remedy. The reason
for this is that they know there is no
danger from it and that it always
cures. There is not the least danger
in giving it, and for coughs, colds and
