TEXAS-Probably never before
has the crop opened SO fast as it has
this year. All over the state it is es-
timated that 60 to 100 per cent. is
opened, with very few reporting the
former figure. Picking is being rush
ed, but, although labor is in fairly
good supply, pickers are unable to
keep pace with the opening. Reports
on the outturn are spotted. Many
sections report smaller crop than
last year, while others say that it is
larger than year ago. In the heavy
producing portions of the state the
yield is quite generally estimated as
heavier than last year. Growers are
selling freely at current levels, but u
material setback in values would
probably check offerings to marked
degree.
TENNESSEE--Cotton is opening
rapidly and pickers are keeping well
up with the opening. Staple is good
and yield is proving satisfactory in
western counties, but is somewhat
disappointing farther esat. Labor,
generally speaking, is plentiful. Grow
ers, with few exceptions, are inclined
to ssll freely 1t prevailing prices,

BUGGY CAPSIZES
nNJURING THREE
Little Son of Senator w. NJ. Whiting
ton Has Narrow Escape
Negro Is Hurt.

An accident that almost proved Sc
rious occurred on Howard street d.
rectly in front of the Quinn Drug
Company's wholesale house this morn
ing, when a buggy owned by Senator
w. M. Wilmington, in which his two
year-old son, w. M. Wilmington, Jr.,
was riding with two colored women,
hooked into the delivery wagon of the
Quinn Drug Co., and turned over, the
child and the women being thrown un-
der the buggy and drug for some dis
tance.
The child was not seriously hurt,
sustaining only a bruise or two about
the head. 1t is understood, however,
that both the colored women were
pretty badly bruised up. The fact
that there was large bundle Of soiled
laundry in the buggy at the time per-
haps accounts for no more serious
results.
Those who saw the accident state
that the negrowomen were laughing
and talking and not watching where
they were going. The delivery wagon
Of the Quinn Drug Co., was standing
still in front Of that company's place
Of business. The buggy was badly
damaged,

b8.3 PER CENT.
CoTTON CONDITION
Memphis Commercial Appeal Core
spondents Reports Published
This Morning.

The average condition of the cotton
crop as of average date of Sept. ~
(was 5S.3 per cent. of normal, accord
lng the reports to The Commercial
|AppeaI from all portions Of the belt.
lhls compares with condition OF
t61.2, the government figures OF Aug.
xo, and 6v8 on Sept. 25 Of last year.
t'robably never in the history OF the
soutn has cotton opened so rapidly as
|it mas TINS year. In many sections Of
| the boil weevil devastated territory
picking is completed and cotton fields
are beng plowed for fall sowing Of
gram, while correspondents agree
tnat outside Of. North Carolina and
some other small sections along the
northern rim Of the belt, Nov. will
hnd very little cotton left in the
heids. Picking is keeping well up
with opening except in Texas, where
the pickers are somewhat behind, and
September ginnings will undoubtedly
break all records for the month. As
a rule growers are selling freely at
prevailing prices, but would resist any
important decline. Some growers in
localities where the crop is poorest
constitute an exception to the general
rule to sell as ginned.
The lint is turning out in good quail
ity, although there is considerable dis
appointment as to quantity. In many
sections the shortnesst Of the crop is
being emphasized as the picking pro-
crosses. In sections where boil Vice.
WI have been most active farmers are
planning widespread diversifcation,
and this may prove an important fac
tor in the acreage next year.
As rule the late crop is Of little
consequence, except along the north
ern rim, where a late frost may aug
ment the yield to certain extent.
This is the last report on the grow
ing crop The Commercial Appeal will
publish this season. An estimate Of
the yield will be made some time in
November.
Condition by states, together with
comparisons with last month, follows:
