The governments report today on
the condition of cotton on May % about
met expectations OF the trade. guesses
ranging between - and so.
The condition was given al 7S9,
which is the lowest June condition on
record with the exception of 1907, when
it was 70.5. The failure. however, by
the government to issue the usual es-
innate Of the acreage renders the CON
dition report practically worthless and
in that respect differs from the report
of 1907
The commercial crop in 1907 ac-
cording to Secretary Hester, totalled
1l.573 900 bales on 3131l000 acres. The
fact that the growing season has been
shortened a month or more, or to sucn
an extent as to cause the government
to postpone the acreage report to July.
leaves the trade to reckon with the
acreage a month hence and with a
plant that gained it's life under adverse
circumstances The figure today do not
furnish data on which to predict the
size of the next crop, though they are
considered bullish unless frost occurs
