COTTON MILLS
 FOR ARKANSA
ALL OTHER soUTHER N STATES HAVE PROSPEROUS MILLS AND WHY NOT AR
 KANSAS?
Why not a cotton mill for Arkan.

Why not cotton mill for Arkan sas?
 When asked this question, mer- chants of Little Rock who handle thousands of dollars worth of cotton products annually answer it by an ex pression of wonder that there has not teen big mill in operation here for 6 number of years.
 The only cotton mill in Arkansas is located in Monticello This is a small affair, and until it's reorganization few years ago, was not a prosperous un- dertaking. It is now doing a very profitable business.
 "A cotton mill here should pay big.'' says J. T Beal of the Bea1-Burrow Dry Goods Company. "I don't know of mill in the whole country now that is not making a whole lot of money. There are several kinds of cotton mills. Some make yarn, some knit goods, some ginghams and the others sheeting and duck. There are several mills in Texas making duck and they are doing a tremendous bus mess. We buy all of this class of goods from the Lone Star state The ether goods is sold through New York brokers.
 Cotton mills depend largely upon the country west of them for their trade, but we have some considerable territory west of us. and we certain ly have the cotton.
 There is no reason in the world why we should not have a cotton mill" declares E. Less, of B. Less & C0. Tt is hard 10 get cotton goods TOW, and if we had a mill all of our home merchants would be glad to pat ronize it."
 Arkansas should have not one cet- ton miH," says B. o. Kidd of the Doyle Kidd Dry Goods Company, "but Little Rock alone should have four or i've. There should be a mill in a lumber of the leading cities of Arkan- sas, such as Fort Smith, Helena, Pine Bluff and Hope There are no condi- tons attached to the operation of q mill that cannot be easily filled m Arkansas"

DELAY COTTON
 PICKING A WEEK
MERCHANTS URGE PLANTERS TO GIVE SUNSHINE A CHANGE TO DRY OUT THE
 COTTON.

The damage to the cotton crop of the state on account of the excessive rainfall will run into millions of dol lars if cotton is not permitted to dry before picking
 Since October there has been 14.97 inches of rain at Little Rock. The heaviest rainfall has been in a section of the state crossing the center from Cast to west, with comparatively small amount in the north.
 This cotton when ginned in that 1 condition is worthless and the spin ners will not buy it.
 An emergency call was sent out re l gently for a conference at the Board l ef Commerce of merchants, bankers, cotton seed men and cotton dealers to discuss the situation, that prompt steps might be taken to stop the pick ing and ginning or wet cotton.
 Samples were shown at this meet ing that had been ginned wet, that l should have been worth 42 cents, and it was stated that it is now worth not r,ore than 10 cents for mattress pur- roses, Spinners' representatives pres ent said they would not consider it, aF any price.
 While the cotton is deteriorating by being left in the field, it will be worth from $50 to $75 a Lale more if it Is not picked until it has been dried out by about five days of sunshine.
 An officer of the Arkansas Trade Association made the statement that of this character of cotton goes into the market in much volume, there will be trouble all around-inspection, reflection, financing, arbitration, loss of premiums and bad reputation
 All those present agreed to bring to bear every influence to persuade the farmers to quit picking until the cotton plants are dry, because other wise his cotton is ruined and the seed is good only for fertilizers.
 The following appeal was sent broadcast over the state as result of lie meeting:
 To All Cotton Growers and Handlers
 of Cotton
 Arkansas cotton growers are threat ened with a greater financial disas- ter than they have had because they are so eager to pick their cotton that they are gathering and ginning it wet.
 Cotton handled wet is so badly gin cut. discolored and lowered in grade that it can not be proftably used for spinning and will have to be used for the same purposes as linters and mat tress stock.
 Some of the cotton offered during the week ending October 18th has been so wet that it will rot so badly as to be worthless and there is dan ger that many bales will heat in rot ting so that they will burn up. Thousands of bales were total loss from rotting and spontaneous combus' ton in 1906 from October rains much lighter than those we have had this year.
 Seed from cotton picked and ginned vet lose in value from s25 to $75 a ton
 If the cotton growers will be patient and not allow picker in the field un- ii the plants, bolls and ground are thoroughly dry and the cotton 1uffs cut in the field and gin it dry and fluffy, they will get good price for it. If they pick or gin while the cotton is damp they will lose from $50 q bale to all it's value.
