that such a home is greatly needed

MIR. CoKER ON COTTON.

Clemson College, S. c., Feb. TO-
In his report as member Of the
American Agricultural Commission
which visited Europe last fall to
study agricultural conditions, Mr..
Davd r. Coker, of Hartsville. has
the following to say concerning the
status of cotton. 1t should prove to
be interesting reading.
"Well posted experts also are con-
fident that the demand for all kinds
of textile fibers will exceed the sup
ply for several years. This appears
to me TO be even more evident than
that there will be food scarcity after
1919. The supply of America cot
ton in Liverpool when our commls-
sion sailed was about 100000 bales,
of which only 10000 were unsold.
Mill buyers were actively looking
over the market for cotton sutiaole
for certain purposes, and were BUY
ing from one to five-bale los wher-
ever they could find them. AS soon
as transportation can be founu
large amount of cotton should De
forwarded to Liverpool, Manchester
and other foreign ports, not only 10
be available for the immediate needs
of the Allied countries, but to be on
hand there for export to the Central
Empires as soon as they are loWed
to handle our raw materials.
ssWhile l believe the laws OF sup
ply and demand will operate to re-
store cotton and to keep it on
most profitable basis for several
wears. l think it would be advisable
for the production in the cotton belt
,of ample food stuffs (including live
}stoek) for hcme consumption. l
believe the present price at which
cotton is sell ng is much too loW'
This opinion is based on the theory
that the war is about to end; that
In re is an accumulated deficiency
of textiles in practically every coun-
try of the world; that the past three
CROPS have only been approximately
equal to the decreased spinning ca
pacity caused by the WIZ, and that
lack of potash and l,bor foreshao-
ows another short crop in 1919
"The immediate future or tne COT
ton industry of the United states
will depend very largely on tne
transportation situation throughout
the world. Nothing can be more I'M
portant than ample ocean tonnage
and moderate freight rates"
