COTTON BRINGS RECORD PR|CE
 ALMOST 60 CENTS SATURDAY

The top price paid for cotton prob ably anywhere in the United States since the civil war, was registered yes terday when the Arizona Egyptian Cot ton company took A bales of Pima cotton at 5S.60 cents This is cents more than the highest price paid last fall for this kind of cotton. The pur- chase of yesterday was from farms near Tempe and that practically cleans up last seasons crop in this valley. This cotton will go to the American Thread company.
 President Atha, of the Anglo Egyp- 1 tian company, was asked yesterday his opinion about prices next year. He said that in view of the action of the market this year he could not say where the price would stop. It started in at 30 cents a pound and rose with rapidity to AT cents and kept on as cending unti Hast November the price was 53 cents. That was then believed to be the limit. No man could foretell the price next season.

 There seems at present special in terest in Los OlivSs property, and among the recent sales in that rapidly developing addition are two lots, one to Mrs. Julia L. Montgomery, who is now having prepared very attractive plans for a $G00O residence on the property, for which ground will be broken shortly. The adjoining lot has been bought by MT. R. r. Davie, who plans to make his permanent home on this tract
 Another sale recently consummated in Los Olives Amended, also on Monte Vista road, is the purchase by Mrs which ground will soon be broken for another attractive suburban residence. These various sales aggregate a total of Sl64,675, largely representing new money brought into the valley by homeSeekerS.

ley cotton was paid yesterday when the Arizona Egyptian Cotton company of Phoenix bought A bales of Pima cotton through the Tempe exchange at the handsome figure of 5S.60 cents a pound. Bids were submitted on the lot and it is understood that only one other offer was made, it being a little over 53 cents a pound.
 Three sales of the Pima cotton have been made by the Tempe growers and the sale this afternoon brought by a good margin the best figure. The first sale of ll3 bales brought 52.85 cents per pound and the second sale of 50 bales brought 52A cents.
 With the exception of 25 bales of the second picking that has been shipped to England to the Fine Spinners' and Doublers' association to introduce the Pima cotton on the English markets, all of the yield from the Tempe fields of the Pima variety this season has been disposed of
 The following report has been com piled giving the exact data on the Pima cotton grown in the Tempe district:

Bedford Mills F finish Cotton
 Eli me as Silk

Salt River valley folk have seen many acres of Pima cotton in the growing. but few of them have seen the result after the sturdy New England fabric people take that same cotton and fabricate it into cord and cloth. One who is almost a Phoenician, however, Mrs. Mary Anderson, owner of the Anderson block and other property, appreciat- ing the interest in this crop in the valley, has sent to her agent here, Franklin D. Lane, for exhibition in the rooms of the chamber of com merce. two samples which will be interestedly inspected. One is a hank of the cotton as it is worked up just prior to being spun into cord and the other is length of the cord as it comes from the mills at Bedford, Mass.
 The cotton i1 the hank looks quite like South Sea Island silk. It has the same creamy appearance. The cord, finished in the highest degree, also has the appearance of a silk line.
 Mrs. Anderson writes that at Bed ford they state they have never handled such fine cotton as that coming from the Salt River valley.

ton on private adylces which he has
received from the leading capitals OF
Europe and declares that his CORE
pondents possess unusually good
sources OF information.
IAN belligerents want peace" says
Mr. Clarke. but developments have
proved that peace is possible only on
terms set forth by the allies. Ger.
many cannot accept such terms In
view OF her territorial gains and the
innocent belief among the German
people that they are winning the war.
Evidence accumulates to show that
the food crisis OF the central powers

dcnoe that II Is not sufficiently acute
to induce the people TO accept peace
on any but their own terms. Ger.

cannot 1t be done right here in the

and other places In the South are pay

The cotton mill industry is one Of
the greatest In all the world; people
Of nearly ever nation are interested

miles Then why should not we, in
the very heart Of the cotton belt of
the world, be interested? The fol.
lowing general statistics of the cotton
mill Industry, taken from the Waco
Times-Herald, will prove Of interest:
The Manufacturers Record of Bal.
timore has given us this bit Of infor.
nation:
Southern cotton mills are doing re
markably well and rapidly increasing
their consumption Of cotton. They
are consuming more cotton than all
the other mills OF the United States.
for while they have not as many
spindles as other sections. the aver.
age production Of Eastern cotton mills
10 OF higher grade, or finer count,
than the output of Southern mills.
The result is that Northern mills, with
more spindles, do not consume as
much cotton as Southern mills, but
the value Of product per spindle is
very much larger than that Of the
South"
There are only few cotton mills in
Texas. and for a time the most OF
these had hard shedding. But Just
now all OF them are enjoying prosper
ity-at least, that Is current report.
One OF these mills Is located here in
McLennan county. at West, and an.
other at Itasca, in our neighboring
county OF Hill.
The worlds consumption OF cotton.
300 pounds to the bale, was for the
season Of 1856. as given In Cotton
Facts. an authoritative publication,
H.5OO.O0O bales, which was more than
six times as much as the consumption
OF Southern mills. In round figures.
the South has 13.5O0.0OO spindles,
while tho rest Of the country has 49,.
100000 spindles. giving a total for this
country Of about 80 million spindles.
Great Britain alone has Sc million
spindles. or nearly twice as many as
the United States.
Between 1907 and 1916 the number
OF spindles In Great Britain increased
100000. while the number in the
United States increased during the
same period 100000 spindles. Thus
the Increase In Great Britain was in
