VELVET BEAN MILLERS
 FORM ORGANIZATION

A Macon special to the Industrial In-
 dex says:
 | With 15O bean millers from different
 parts of Georgia in attendance, the first l annual meeting of the Georgia Bean Millers association was held here. The meeting was the continuation of series os meetings throughout the state and
 was fostered by the agricultural depart ment of the Southern Bell Telephone company.
 The immediate scope of the work of the association was indicated when it was brought out that the Georgia Bean Millers association will market this year some 100000 tons of velvet beans, valued at about s45 per ton. or having a total value of approximately $65. .250. GOO This is the prospect for this years production Meanwhile the association has inaugu- rated plans for extending tremendously the use of their product This expansion is to be accomplished in several ways. including the co-opera- ton of the United States and Georgia departments of agriculture; through the cooperation of the Georgia state market bureau, through cooperation with Ala bama and other bean miller's associa-
 tions. and through an intensive educa- tIonal campaign which is to be under taken at once.
 One of the most significant steps taken by the association was the adoption of the use of trade acceptances in trans acting business.
 4 resolution introduced by Col K. F. Shedden of Atlanta was adopted, me- moralizing the general assembly, now in session. upon the subject of appropria- tions for the state markets bureau.
 The standardization of velvet bean meal was discussed and steps will be taken to bring about a greater degree of standardization.

COTTON REVIEW

New Orleans, August 1s.-with the low est prices made on Tuesday and the highest on Saturday, the cotton market last week advanced from the lowest to the highest levels, 323 to s4O points. At it's best it was 225 to 24 points over the previous weeks close. The net change for the week was rise of 2so to 2S6 points It was fairly active market throughout.
 The buying was stimulated mainly by the situation in Texas, the continued heat and drouth there and late in the week, the wide advances in the spot mar kets or that state. The demand for new crop cotton in Texas was generally re- garded as one of the most surprising de- velopments of the new season.
 War news had more or less of a bullsh Influence and reports of crop deteriora- tion in the eastern belt, as well as In Oklahoma and Arkansas, helped put val ues higher. There was much bearish talk about the weakened technical position as the result of heavy and general buying and reactions from the advance were constantly predicted but reactions were always short-lived
 This week the tendency will be strong CT to- look for a reaction from the ris- ing market now under way for about three weeks, but bulls will have the ad- vantage owing to the score of a look out for low August condition report This report will wind up the August con dition period and many brokers and trad, CTS already think that change in the weather could hardly materially alter the outlook, so far. has deterioration prog~ ressed over wide areas of cotton country At the same time, rains in Texas would have powerful bearish effect in a sem timental way. In some quarters it is thought that. regardless of weather con- ditions, the immediate future of the con- tract market will bound up in the spot situation. It Is quite generally conceded that any sudden let-up in the demand for the new crop would precipitate re- action which has been so much talked about of late
