COTTON EXPORTS GAIN

New Orleans. March 3-Cotton ex.
ports during February were l,544,512
bales. a larger amount than shipped
any other month of this or last season.
The seasons exports thus far amount
to 5,2s3,7S9 bales, compared with
e,S83OCO last year. February exports
surprised even those who made high
estimates. Few calculations were over
100000 bales, while many traders
thought it would be under the million
mark. In addition. more than 10000
bales were cleared on March | which
really were February business.
