stated that Governor Little is now

per cent on piece work, which the 35

1ayIor'a Report on Cotton Outlook.

Taylor'a Report on Cotton Outlook
!. A. Taylor of Memphis, president
CT the National Ginners' Association,
has issued circular letter to the gin
ners throughout the South, in which
he gives the figures compiled to date
on cotton receipts. He says that the
farmers have it in their own power to
secure better prices for their cotton.
The letter follows:
TO the Ginners-Your reports show
there has been ginned 1882, 600 bales
up to February 26, and you estimate
there are still $4,000 yet to gin, MAX
ing a total of 10,918,0O0 bales There
will be about 100000 linters and about
$4,000 city crop, making a total of H.,
100000 bales as the commercial crop,
If it is marketed as freely as it US
ually has been for the past two years.
The indications are now that there
will be probably 100000 linters carried
over, as there is no demand for them.
1t is also apparent from your reports
that a large amount of cotton stored
In warehouses for Is cents will be car
ried over unless very much higher
prices come before September 1. This
makes the shortage on this crop over
2,250,000 bales, compared TO last year.
The India crop is now considered shopt
100000, so that the supply from now
until the new crop comes on will be
very short, and every bale will be
needed, SO that it is up to the farm
ers that hold the balance of the crop.
If they will stick together and hold
few hundred thousand bales off the
market until July, l feel very sure
they will be well paid for their trouble.
Trade has been rather slow, but
it is improving right along, apd if it
continues to improve it will not be
long until the spinners will have to
run on full time. So far, the weather
has been favorable for farm work in
Texas and Oklahoma, but in the other
states there has been too much rain,
and very little farm work has been
done. If the weather does not I'M
prove in that section soon it means
another late crop. On my recent trip
to Texas and Louisiana I find the
weather has been favorable to the boil
weevil, and they have come through
in good shape, and the chances are
very much against even an average
crop in the weevil districts of Texas,
Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas and
Mississippi.
This is our last report for the sea-
son, and l thank you for your prompt
ness and correctness in reporting this
season."
