CROP OF s100,000,000
CAUSES COLORADO FARMERS TO
WEAR PLEASED SMILE.
State Ranks Sixth In Increase Of Asr'.
cultural Products Showing Gain
Of 10 Per Cent.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.-Colorado farmers are jubi-
lant over the 1914 crop outlook. The
prospects are for an increase OF ~
per cent over the best yields OF TWEEN
~ years past The showing Is re-.
garded as remarkable. since agricul'
tural conditions in Colorado for the
last ten years have been 1898 per
cent Of normal.
According to report OF the bureau
Of crop estimates OF the Federal De-
partment OF Agriculture, crops over
the whole country are IA per cent bet
ter than the ten-year average. Only
six states are ahead OF Colorado In
point OF Increase OF production. The
states and their ratings are: Kansas,
I17.2 per cent; Nebraska. 1853 per
cent; South Dakota, 1928 per cent;
North Dakota, 110.2 per cent; Iowa.
1902 per cent. and California. 110 por
cent. The high showing OF these
states Is due in part to the fact that
they have bumper crops and in part to
the low normal rating for the last ten
years.
Colorado's ten-year period has been
well up to former standards. SO that
her rating means a greater relative In
crease than Is shown by the many
other states.
Not only has the yield per acre
greatly surpassed former years. but
the acreage under cultivation is also
much larger. SO that the general agri.
cultural output will show an increase
much greater than the 1898 per cent
estimate Of the agricultural bureau.
Prices also are better than before. and
the total wealth that will flow into the
farmers pockets will be far more than
for any other year. The value OF all
crops IL estimated at 310O,000.00O.
Estimates put the corn cror 20 per
cent larger than ever before. The
price. according to the dope" will be
per cent greater than the average for
the last five years. The average on
July / Of this year was S0.755. while
for the last five years It has averaged
3O.695 a bushel. This means that Col
orado's corn crop will be worth about
9S.0O0.O00
The price of wheat has fallen off 90

 He was held in s25,o00 bond for the action of the grand jury.
 When the amount of the bail was announced by Magistrate Simms, Ma honey smiled broadly and said:

 Polk was resting quietly at the New York hospital today. Surgeons expect he will recover rapidly if no complica- tons develop. He spent comfortable night.

 None of them were positive they had ever seen the man before.

COTTON MARKET IS
 SLIGHTLY NERVOUS
Effects of Last Weeks Cold Wave Is
 Felt

New Orleans. April 19.-Cotton was under considerable pressure this last week but displayed more or less re- sistence to selling and good recupera- tive power. It was mainly a weather market and selling was based on in- provement in weather conditions At the same time, the market felt the ef- fects of last weeks cold wave and, on the close, was nervous over promised heavy rains Sunday. The net change in prices for the week was a loss of 15 to IT points
 Satisfactorily, the market was strong this week as mill takings were large and the movement into sight was small while stocks In the interior showed marked shrinkage. Statistics had little effect as the ring was impressed by telegrams from the interior telling or a vast amount of planting being accom- plished and of much cotton coming up
 This week the market will pay more attention to weather developments than to any other factor The earliest sections of the belt will be eagerly watched with the view of getting line on the early movement of the new crop. Ike ceipts during August this year will be of more importance than usual because of the old crop situation.

TRADE IN COTTON
 GOODS IS QUIET

New York, April 19@Trade in cotton goods for late delivery continues along very conservative lines. Spot business is steady but it is made up largely of small lots. Express shipments and teie- graphic orders are common from the largest houses Fall dating has been granted on staple prints and jobbers are placing orders moderately Bleached cottons of the better grades continue firm, the low grades being slightly easier. One or two leading lines Of sta- ple gringhams that were reduced to clean up stocks have now been restored to the old prices.
 Export trade is quiet and export snip ments are now beginning to decline compared with 8 year ago. Fancy wash goods business Is fair but not up to the usual volume at this period of the year The tendency toward printed wash fabrics Is well maintained.
 Duck markets are quiet and yarns are easy and inclined to dullness. StocKs are generally we'll In hand and many of the large mills are selling their prod net as it comes from the looms. Print ers are very busy bleachers are mod erateIy well employed, and many of the finishers are getting good spot and nearby trade. Prices are as follows
 Print cloths, 2S-inch 64x64's, 3esc; 64x ass 37-16c; 3Sh inch 64x64s. 51s and BAG; brown sheetings, southern stand ards. Sc denims, 9-ounce, 14c; tickings, S-ounce, 13kc: standard prints. bAo; standard staple ginghams, 6Ac; dress ginghams. 9&c.
