COTTON SEED STATISTICS.

Director Harris, Of the Bureau
of the Census, finds that there is
great demand for the publication
at more freq uent intervals of
statistics concerning the con.
sumption of cotton seed. 1t has
been the practice of the Bureau of
the Census to compile statistics for
this important part of the cotton
crop OILY twice during the gin.
ming season. The first report for
the crop Of 1912 related to the
quantity crushed prior to Janu-
airy 1, 1913. The second report
showed the quantity crushed
prior to March 1. 1918, with an
estimate Of the quantity remain
ing to be crushed from the crop.
The statistics OF cotton seed
are collected in connection with
those for the production ofcotton
a. reported by the ginners. This
is necessary because the Quantity
of linters is constantly increasing
and forms a much larger percen-
tage of the total crop than hereto
fore.
Mr.. Harris believes that an
additional report showing tie
quantity Of seed crushed and OF
linters obtained should relate to
s)me date between October 81
and January 1. He is not certain
as to the most desirable date, and
10 accordingly corresponding with
the farmers and cottonseed oil
mills in order to establish it. II
is hoped that all will agree upon

law, $99,195.60 from this source was
paid out March 80, 1912. The sum now
available for distribution Is $42,060.43.
This fund Is to be expended In the
discretion Of each county board Of edu-

cation Of the respective counties are

There developed a few signs Of in
cipient war among some Of the local
cotton buyers last Saturday afternoon
According to the story as The Enquirer
gathers it, there is usually an under
standing as to what Is to be considered
the top of the market. It Is not exact
ly iron clad, and buyers do not feel alb
solutely bound to respect it; but sc
long as things are working smoothly
there is no disposition to depart from
generally understood top" figures. One
buyer q little more eager than the
others, it is said, stationed himself oui
near the Victor ginnery, and as the
cotton wagons came out Of the lot
would offer the top" Of the market
provided the owner Of the cotton would
sell without further showing Of the
samples. This had been going on fol
some time with pretty good success
until other buyers began to grow a lit
tie impatient, and the other buyers
raised the limit-one to IL 5-S and an
other to 12a. Things got just little
exciting for a while, and 1t Is stated
that in the afternoon some supplement
tary checks were issued to make up the
difference between 12a and 12a to make
good the top Of the market assurance.
