tried. l am also glad to say that the price it brought wa
d entirely satisfactory, having received IS high a 10 cents for some
. of it. Take it altogether, the forwardness, the yield, the easy pick

Il The yield of this cotton would have been much greater this
y year had it not been for the unfavorable seaso and the damage
j sustained from the boil weevil.
