COTTON CROP ABOUT
SAME AS LAST REPORT.

The cotton crop about broke
even during the past fortnight.
In Texas and Oklahoma there
were some slight improvement
reported, Georgia and North Caro-
ina about hold their own, while
there was further deteriOGtion IN
the remainder of the belt.
The crop is opening rapidly,
probably more rapidly than ever
before known at this time of the
year. Farmers are picking "a
bout as fast as the bolls open,
and in a majority OF cases the
seed cotton Is being run through
the gin and the lint offered for
sale. There Is some talk, how
ever, OF withdrawing offerings at
below ID cents, basis mIddling
Growers IN some of the sections
of Mississippi and Alabama where
the outlook Is poorest constitute
an exception to the general rule
to sell as fast as ginned.
Boil weevil ravages continue
over constantly widening range
OF territory. Over large sections
of Mississippi and Alabama the
crop is a practical failure as a re-
suit of storm damage, followed
by boil weevl depredatiOns.
Some damage is also being done
in Texas, Louisiana and Southern
Georgia
Some Mississippi markets re
port the staple selling at Il to 81
cents a pound and seed at $40
pee ton.-Commercial Appeal.
