NEW COTTON is NOW
COMING TO DAWSON MARKET
The Yield Will Be Greatly Reduced
This Year.

New cotton is beginning to come
to market, the local warehouses hav-
ing received lis bales. Good mid
ding was quoted at 301a cents this
morning. A few days of fair weather
would cause the staple to open rap
idly, and swell receipts to hundreds
of bales daily.
On account of the boil weevil and
continued wet weather the crop in
Terrell will be cut one half, and in
some sections not more than a third
of the average yield is expected.
Many farmers say they will not make
more than three bales to the plow
