SOUTHERN COTTON { MILLS BREAK ALL
 PREVIOUS RECORDS
Foreign and Northern Con- sumption Show Slight De- crease, According to
 Hester's Report

New Orleans. August 2.-Consump-
 tion of cotton by southern mills during
 the cotton year ending July 31, last,
 amounted to 4,35S,O00 bales, breaking
 all former records, according to figures
 compiled by H. G. Hester, Aecretary of
 the New Orleans cotton exchange, and.
 announced today. These figures com-
 pared to 4,047,00o the year before and 3,163 900 two years ago.
 The total commercial crop of cotton
 for the year just ended, according to Secretary Hester's figures, amounted to
 12941,000 bales. against 12,93s,0o0 the year before and 15,10S,O0o two years Iago.
 The heavy consumption of cotton for
 the past year, according to reports re- ceived on the exchange, was due part ly to large war orders and partly to the filling of business which in peace times probably would have gone to England.
 Secretary Hesters figures placed worlds consumption of American cot ton during the trade year just ended at 14,054000 bales, compared to 14,- lS12,000 bales last year. The decrease was attributed to war conditions in foreign countries. The total foreign consumption was placed at 6,69S,000 bales, against 7,76o,0o0 a year ago. A slight decrease in northern mill consumption was reported, the figures being 299S,000 bales, against 3,005,000 a year ago.
