COTTON BRINGS
 GOOD RETURNS
Lowest Grades Shipped from Here Sell Before Consignment Reaches Its Destination Local Off, cerS Pleased

Believing that they have been do- ing exactly right in urging all grow CTS to stay by the Egyptian long staple cotton. ;ne members Of the Mesa Egyptian Cotton exchange were given further encouragement yester day when w. $. Dorman received a wire from McFadden brothers, the commission merchants handling Il portion of this years crop, that 150 bales of standard had been sold for 1912 cents per pound and that g bales had been sold for 1S12 cents Der pound.
 Not only are the local officers of the exchange elated on account Of proving that Mesa is coming into her own in the cotton industry, but because the poorest grade of cotton grown here has been sold first and at such a good price There was a disposition on the part of some to cling to the idea that the advance money was all that would be 1e- ceived here. This will be welcome news to all growers who believed that
 
 Since the total amount of the tai end of the crop and the very poorest grades have been sold at such a | splendid figure. it is only to be eX- pected that the best grades, knOwr as extra. will command as higf prices as have been paid this year Al least that is the way the growers have it figured out. possibly from thu reason that the hope is father o the thought.
 1 The point in favor of the long staple which the advocates of tha variety see in the recent sale by Me 1 F'adden Brothers is that this is bu 16 per cent less than the price paiC for the highest grade Egyptian. On the other hand, they state that thu difference in price between the me dium short staple and the eXtr; sometimes averages as much as , per cent. This fact alone. they claim
 is an argument in favor of the loni staple cotton.
