TWO BALES GINNED.
CottonIPicking Is Progressing In
 Part of Southwest.

San Antonio, June 10.-From this seasons planting two bales of cotton have been ginned at Won Ormy, Bexar county. Picking in that section is we'll under way. This is the earliest that bale of cotton was ever ginned fin this county.
 South on the International and Great Northern toward Cotulla and Laredo the cotton is reported to be opening fast and by July 1 picking will be well under way. Probably 200 Or 300 bales will be ginned in that section before July 1. The fact that a great acreage of cotton is being put in to the southwest of this city, where planting is from one month to six weeks ahead of north Texas, may cause the cotton crop to begin to move to the market several weeks earlier than has been the custom heretofore, and may change the plans of the pur- chasers. Crop conditions are report ed good and large crop assured if the boil weevil is not too bad. So far little complaint is being heard.
