COTTON MARKET
TOUCHES SKY
IN RECORD RISE

The highest price ever paid for I'M
perial valley short staple cotton is
being paid today by cotton buyers.
Yesterday the cotton market rose
100 points, or total of $5 bale, and
this morning the rise continued.
DAILY Brothers, cotton buyers, are
paying between SO and 80 cents a
pound for short staple. The Durango
cotton is very scarce this year and is
worth from AZ to AZ cents, if of good
quality.
Cotton growers are elated over the
prices they are receiving.
The reason for the high price seems
to be the shortage Of the crop in the
South. Good grade cotton is scarce,
and this brings high prices to Imper-
ial county growers.
