in on the Katy from Shreveport
and was transferred to train No. 2

The daily mail received at the head
quarters OF DR.. S. A. Knapp, in charge
of the branch office of the United States
agricultural department in this city,
gives a gloomy aspect to the crop stu
alton in South, Central, Northern and
Eastern Texas, the whole of Louisiana
and of Southwestern Arkansas.
On an average Of from $50 to 300 let
tiers are received every day. Many
planters write that up to the present
time they have not planted any cotton,
owing 70 the rains, which precluded
the possibility of getting into the fields,
and that they do not think they will
plant any cotton this year, while others
write that their cotton fields are in a
deplorable condition and taken by the
grass and weeds. On the highlands
some of the cotton is doing very we'll
where it has been worked out.
The next great work by the Southern
Cotton Association will be the COM
plotting of the Planters Commission and

amount to an insurance against 10 price.
The entire capital stock, $4,000, 600,
should be subscribed in thirty days;
then will never see cotton sell for less
