30 MILLION ACRES IN COTTON.
Increase Over 1910-COnditiOn, Re-
ported to Memphis Newspaper.

Memphis May 2b.-The first Of TN
seasons cotton crop reports from
correspondents Of the C1mmcrciaI-
Appeal, Of date of May - and q, in
dicate that there is an increased
area planted TO cotton in 1911 over
that planted in 1870, of about 4.6
foui ana siX-tenths) which is about
35,000,0OO acres in all.
Over 50 per cent of the crop has
come up to a stand. Planting is prac-
tically completed save in Western Ok
lahoma, where if rain falls soon oats
land will be put in cotton. This COM
pares with SS per cent to stand or
May % last year. Broadly speaking,
it may be said that north Of a line
somewhere between the thirty-third
and thirty-fourth parallel the crop is
somewhat later than last year, owing
to the fact that the ground is too
dry for the proper termination Of the
seed. South Of that line the rains
have been sufficient to start the crop
off well, and it is hourishing.
Among other conditions, the cotton
is we'll above the average. There is
no grass in the weed. There is 4
tendency to better land preparation
and TO the employment Of improved
machinery. There is a return To cot
ton in the older weevil infested dis
tricts Of the Mississippi Valley. but
a decrease in the sections newly in
