Value o. STORAGE Cotton Grows.

Value o. Storage Cotton Grows.
The annual report of ". G. Smith,
State warehouse commissioner, shows
that during the year just closed 6S,119
bales of cotton were stored in the diff
ferent units of the system. Of this
number 39,643 have been withdrawn,
leaving total of 2S,476 bales in stor-
age January l, 1918 This is regarded
as a particularly good showing in that
abnormally high prices have been OBJ
tanned throughout most of the year.
There are 204 warehouses in the sys-
tenn.
Another feature of the years work
just closed, which appeals especially
to Mr.. Smith and which fulflls the
mission OF the warehouse system is it's
utilization by the Small farmer MANY
farmers who could store only one Or
two bales have been benefited by the
plan. During the season 767 received
were issued to farmers who could
store two bales and 1924 receipts to
farmers who stored only one bale each.
Money was borrowed on many of the
receipts, with. the value of the cot
ton enhanced approximately so per
cent.
An urgent appeal to store their cot
ton was written to farmers September
6 by Mr.. Smith. Since that time 49,
3o2 bales were stored At that time
cotton was selling at 10 IL cents, but
the warehouse commissioner argued
that the worldwide shortage and i'm
mediate demand guaranteed an ad.
vance to 80 cents. The increased value
of the cotton stored is more than ST.
100000.
Mr.. Smith emphasizes that although
the appropriation last year was cut
by the legislature from $4,000 to s1O,-
900, the receipts for the year are ap-
proximately $4,000 in excess of the
amount provided for operating ex'
penses. The system has now SS,l47.S4
on deposit at the Union National Bank.
Storage due December 81 was ST.
392.74 and accrued storage S2,755.74.
