Farmer. TEoIdlnr Cotton.


 The local cotton receipts continue ir small figures. In other words the farmers of the territory tributary tC Birmingham remain fir ninth eri Birmingham reniains firm in their be. lief that the prices offered for cottoI at the present time are not as higI as they should be, and that by waitinl they will receive better prices for theii staple. It would seem that all cohdE tions are operating against the eottol buyers and exporters and this class O. cotton men are in anything but al optimistic frame of mind. Tn the first place, all of them have more or lesI large contracts to deliver cotton of certain grades and under the existing conditions they are having trouble se- curing cotton of any grade fin amounts large enough to satisfy their wants On the other hand, such cotton as Ap- pears on the market is not of the best quantity of good staple has appeared mission men are getting it going and coming" They are in a position where it Is. a case of either acknowledging that they can't fill contracts or filling the contracts with poor cotton and standing for the reclamations that will inevitably result. The local concerns who have representatives in Georgia and Mississippi and depending largely on them for the business they are do- ing and the local cotton buyers through Alabama, especially this section of the State, are having an easy time so far as the amount of work they have to do is concerned, although their state Of mind Is not so easy. t
