COTTON MARKET
TO Be INTERESTING
First Notice Day of January
Deliveries the Main
Development

New Orleans, December 2s.-Trading of
interest is promised in the cotton market
this week. although 1t will be broken into
by the New Year holiday Thursday, the
main developments will be the first no.
tice. day for January deliveries in the
New York market. which will be Tuesday.
and the ending of the present ginning
period. Wednesday night
The entire cotton world has its eyes
on the January situation In New York
because of predictions of large amount
of cotton to be rendered against con-
tracts 1t is generally expected that the
bulk of these will pe disclosed on the
first notice day. Bears are of the opinion
that this will be a depressing influence
but bulls appear to think that the no.
tices will be quickly stopped and that
those who issue them will stand a good
chance of losing their cotton
Whatever may be the outcome in New
York, trading of Importance and prob
ably rather wide price changes will take
place. This market has already passed
its first January notice day. but there are
rumors of more tenders to come. The dis
posal of the large stock of cotton accum-
ulated here is beginning to be considered
problem, especially by those whose opin-
ions lean to the short side. The questions
of stock and tenders are. of course closely
related.
Wednesday night will end what prob
ably will be considered the most impor-
tant ginning period of this season and
the census bureau report to that date,
to be issued January 9, will be awaited
with the greatest interest. At the end
of this week the first of the private bu-
reau forecasts of returns. or rumors of
such forecasts, will be circulating and
they are expected to have considerable in
iuence on trading. Thus far, the trade
remains unsettled as to what to expect,
although bears believe that the pending
report will utterly discredit the recent
government crop estimate while the bulls
as firmly expect that 1t will confirm the
estimate. This Is the reason why the
figures will be given such Importance.

A revision of the estimate given in
those notes of the value of the farm
crops of Alabama for 1913, published on
Sunday last, which estimate was placed
at 600 in the light Of subsequent
figures from official sources row justi-
fies the claim that the amount is over
500, 100000. The cotton crop alone is
worth S12,OO0OO0. Corn in Alabama will
bring s5o,Ooo,OOO for 1913 while other crops
and products make up the total far in
excess Of s2oO.oO0OOO
These figures show remarkable increase.
Tie value of all farm products in Ala
bama in 1900 was s73,19O,72O. In 1910 they
were S144, IS, ,347, about doubled during
that census period, and now in three
years of the present period they have
reached the enormous sum OF over $780,
100000. or gain I'M three years of over
s55,0oo,ooo. which will easily double in
1910 figures at the end of the present
census period in 1920
From this 1t should DE evident that
Alabama can produce all of the food and
feed crops that are consumed by the
people of the state, of which II is esti-
mated that $150.o0O,OO0 now goes elsewhere
annually. In fact, 1t will not require
more than half a dozen additional farm
ers like James B. Haggin, the multimil-
lionaire Kentuckian, and the largest
dairyman in the world who has bought
some 5000 acres in the black belt during
the present year, and who is now i'm
proving his holdings there in order to
make up this above named amount.
There has been great deficiency in
Alabama of live stock raising and dairy
products Mr.. Haggin is going to REM
edy this condition to large extent, as
he is now building IS barns to shelter
1860 registered cows that are. now wait
ing shipment from California to this Ala
bama farm as soon as they can be taken
care of. In addition to this, Mr.. Hag
gin during the coming year will SOW 1000
acres in alfalfa, and Is now building some
