SHOWS UP BIG SIX"

Editor Star: | would like TO
know why the fight against the
commission combine OF Seattle has
been dropped. This Is question
which Is OF no small concern to
the ranchers of Yakima and its
tributary valleys That the Big Six
are still doing business In the same
old way Is evidenced by the fact
that tho consumers are paying at
the rate OF $500 and $50 per ton
for potatoes there. while we can
hardly give them away here.
Commission men In Yakima Feb.
ruary Z absolutely refused to quote
me a price on potatoes, as there
were 80 cars standing on the tracks
In Seattle. they said The buyers
last week were paying $500 per ton
mere Tor a No. | potatoes, and, after
deducting the price Of the sacks,
the rancher received the munificent
sum Of 1870 per ton for his labor.
AZ $500 per ton plus the freight.
1870 per ton TO Seattle. would
mako $500 per ton there. and the
difference is what that parasite
(called middle mani gets.
Tho same condition obtains in
the apple market, and il will always
be thus until the people send
enough honest men, with the right
convictions, to the legislature. to
put a stop TO the cornering Of the
market on the necessarles of life.
! heartily commend The star on its
fight for right principles.
Yours respectfully,

WEST INDIAN COTTON.

Messrs. Wolstenholme and Holland, of
Liverpool, write as follows, under date June
l6, with reference to the sales of West In
dian Sea Island cotton
Since our last report the business in West
Indian Sea Islnnd has been confined to about
70 bales of Montserrat ut 16d, and 80 bales
Jamaica at 14d. The consumption of Sen
Island cotton of all descriptions continues
very limited, in spite of the small crops in
both America and the West indies
Spinners are quite Indifferent buyers, and
their requirements being small, they will
only offer very low prices when any specific
lots are pressed for ale.-4gricwlutr0t

THE WORLDS COTTON INDUSTRY IN
1912.

An article which appears in the Jo"rmoJ
Of Me RoyaI Society Of Arts for May 8,
1918, provides interesting statistics IN re-
gard to the number OF spindles that were
active, and the amount of cotton consumed,
during 1912.
The worlds consumption of cotton during
the year referred to has been placed Mt
20, 587, 900 bales, as compared with 1908
600 bales in 1911. But as is pointed oot,
these figures do not represent the total con-
sumption of cotton, for in many countries,
for instance, India, q large amount OF this
commodity is consumed locally and does not
pass therefore through the ordinary com
mercial channels. 1t is of interest to com
pare these figures with the worlds produc-
ton of cotton from the crop of 1911, which
is stated to have amounted to 22,297, 900
bales of 500 ID. each. This includes the
total productio on for British India.
The article goes on to say that the mum
Der of active spin dies in the world has been
estimated at I40,9 9G, 600. In Great Britain
there were $1,000, 900 active spindIes in
1912, compa red with $4,000, 600 in 1900;
while the qu untitv of cotton consumed i'll
creased from $50 5000 bales in 1900 to
1920, 900 IN 1912. The interesting fact is
noted that the spindles operated in the Uni
ted Kingdom during the past year constltu-
ted 80 per cent of all the active mill SPIN
dies in the world, bat the quantity of cotton
consumed by them formed only q per cent
of the total.
In considering this figure it must be borne
IN mind that it is not truly representative Of
the place which Great Britain holds as q
cotton manufacturing country, since the
greater part of her manufactures are of much
finer quality than those produced elsewhere.
Only about 20 per cent of the total quantity
of cotton goods manufactured is consumed
in the country, the remainder being export
cd, chiefly to India, China, Turkey, Egypt,
Australia, Dutch East Indies, Argentina, and
the United States.
AS regards TIE development of the cotton
manufacturing industry in different coun-
tries, the most interesting case appears to be
hat of Italy, where the number Of active
spindles mere ased from 100000 in 1910 to
1880 600 in 1912. 1t is interesting to note
that great progress has been made in con-
ne&ion will cotton manufacturing in British
India, which occupied the fourth position
in Importance during the year 1919. The
manufacture of cotton is also developing in
many of the South American countries
