CONDITION OF CROP
STATEMENT OF FARMERS, UNION
 NATIONAL COMMITTEE.
Their Recent Investigations show Con- cluafveiy that the Cotton Crop la Shorter Than TheiR
 First Estimate.

Memphis. Oct. Jour investigations of crop conditions show conclusively that the cotton crop is shorter than our first estimates. The bear spectators are trying to make capital out of the large gin report which was not larger than we expect ed. Cotton was much earlier this sea- son. The drought and rust caused cotton to open rapidly and premature ly. The fact that the cotton milis. sawing mills and other public works were shut down, gave the farmers in the belt all the labor needed for early | gathering. This. coupled with favor l able weather. has enabled the farmer to keep up with picking.
 The cloth supply Is very much de- pleted, mills having run on short time for twelve months. There was less cotton for mills at the first of Septem- Der than for years. With another short crop considering the increasing demand for cotton goods, we will see cotton higher in the near future.
 "In view of these facts, we feel jus tihed in urging the cotton producer to withhold his cotton from this depress- ed market After having controlled two, of the largest crops ever pro- duced. the crops of is04-05--1s05-Oe. by holding for fair prices we feel as- sured that the farmers will act intelli-s gently and for this our second shore crop in succession, force something the demands are to control the market. 1t is an easy proposition
