produced the simplest, cheapest and
most practicable machine to pick cot

HIGH PRICES FOR COTTON
DUE TO SHORTAGE OF CROP

1t is upon deterioration of the cotton
crop, reduction of the prospective yield.
realization that the worlds consump.
tive requirements are now at the rate
of close to $1,000, 600 bales per annun
and belief that mill supplies both In
the United States and abroad are low,
that the rise of nearly "a cents pound
or $3.50 bale in the price of cotton Ia
based, says the Wall Street Journal.
The advance in the staple, futures on
two or three occasions jumping l-2
cent pound or 81. so bale day, have
been the most sensational witnessed
since the famous "Sully year"
One of the largest cotton merchants
in New England. and in fact in the
country. who has studied conditions
carefully through his correspondents
IN the South, predicts that the crop
will be around $4,000, 600 bales, but
that it may reach Il, 500, 900 bales. He
says:
1T looks like cotton crop of about
III, 600, 900 bales. In the record crop of
1911 the States of the eastern belt pro,
duced 9,S00,000 bales of cotton. Thew
may duplicate that this year. but prob
abilities are that they will fall about
800, OG0 bales short of that figure. l
don think that Texas will make over
3,50O,0 bales this year Oklahoma
not over 500, 600 and Arkansas about
$50, 900. This would bring the total up
to about 1900, 600.
Consumption last year was 4,9OO.-
600 bales and the commercial crop of
the United States about 10, 500, 90 bales.
If consumption this year is as large as
last year. the price of cotton will 90
stll higher, to perhaps 15 cents a
pound. If, however, it should go as
high as 10 cents, consumption you'd be
materially checked and price reaction
would necessarily follow.
Although we frequently get an adj
vance of about cents pound in cot,
ton during the fall, it has been many
years since such sharp and rapid adj
vances have been SEEM
