Estimating Cotton Yields and
Cotton Consumption.
New Orleans Picayune.

1t is AN old saying that crop
is not made until it is harvested,
and it is equally true that the
size of crop is not determined
until the last bale is counted.
Last years experience proved a
salutary lesson in this respect.
Despite the estimates by the
Government and a score of au.
thorities, and in spite, too, of the
early ginners' reports by the GEN.
sus bureau, the crop was under.
estimated, indicating clearly
that neither early estimates nor
early census reports are in any
way reliable guides to the true
size of the crop.
If there is proneness at the
beginning Of the season to under.
estimate cotton crops, there is
an even greater proneness to un
derestimate consumption. In all
but a very few years the con-
sumption of raw cotton has ex-
ceeded the early estimates, show
ing clearly that the requirements
of the world have fully over ia
ken production and have been
kept within bounds only by the
higher prices exacted for the
raw material. Mr.. Ellison now
estimates that the whole world
will require this year IL, 900
bales. On the basis of past ex
perience it is perfectly safe to
add from 100000 to 100000
bales to this estimate. With
that addition, which leaves but
little margin for putting away
surplus stocks, there ought to be
no fear of any but paying prices
for producers of cotton, no mat
ter what the crop may turn out
to be, even should it reach Mr..
Buston's figure of 13, 100000
bales, which it probably will not,
as that gentleman, looking at
the crop entirely through spin
ners' spectacles, generally over
shoots the mark by good mar
gin. 1t would really seem to be
a more profitable occupation this
season to closely study consump
ton than to bother about the
production.

This good letter was received
some time ago, but such stuff, will
keep and make good reading any
time. We predict success for this
young farmer. You may talk OF
labor problems and unfavorable
crop conditions but none of these
can keep down such "grit" and
such good work along the right
lines. We only wish the South
had a million more just like
him.

He didn't come back that day, and
next morning they went searching for
him. They found his horse on the
prairie. saddled, but without a bride.
Thirty men secured the country all
day, but could not find the missing

The hunt was kept up until late in
the afternoon OF the next day, and
then one OF the party came upon the
feet and legs OF a man sticking out OF
a hole in the ground. The feet and

ground was a wolf den, and Lawson's

cellar.

STORING POTATOES.
Conditions to Be Observed II the
Most Satisfactory Results
Are Obtained.

have found in my experience on the
farm that il is necessary TO use consider
able care in the storing Of potatoes In
the cellar If they are to be made to keep
well and not sprout or rot. The storing
In open bins used TO be followed by my
father when ! was boy. and the pota-
toes got a good deal OF sunlight and
warmth. The result was that several
times throughout the winter we boys
had Jobs sprouting the potatoes. The
work is all right. but the potatoes ara
reduced in condition each time they are
permitted 10 sprout. The moisture that
goes out in the sprouts leaves the tubers
soft and wrinkled. In that condition
