PREDICTS COTTON WILL
 GO TO Is CENTS A POUND

That upland middling cotton may sell at IS cents per pound and even higher, is the belief of John F. Boyle, widely known Little Rock cotton man, whore turned Saturday from Eastern markets.
 T think that extremely high prices for cotton will prevail this season and for several year to come," said MT. Boyle. Several week ago 1 expressed the opinion that upland mid ding cotton would certainly sell at 16 cents a pound in our market, and 1 now think Is cents or even higher, quite prob able. My views are based not only on the short crop being gathered in the South but be- cause of the enormous demand for dry goods and other pro- ucts of cotton. - Arkansas Democrat.
