ITALY ORDERS
 SOUTHERN PINE
BIG ORDER PLACED BY ITALIAN GOVERNMENT INDICATING POSTWAR ACTIVITY IN
 LUMBER MARKET.

New Orleans, La. - An interesting and highly significant development with respect to the export lumber market has taken place here within the last few days. The purchase, by commissioners representing the rtal- ian government, of three and one half million feet of yellow pine tim Der Expedited of Southern pine mer- chantable grades'9 for delivery at Gulf ports to be moved, via ships supplied by purchaser, to Italy. This sizable order was placed with the Southern Pine Emergency Bureau, which now is distributing the busi- ness among the Southern pine mills east and west of the Missisippis. It will be inspected at the mills by As sociation inspectors and shipped to designated ports to await the cargo steamers, which are to be furnished by the buyers.
 The order is noteworthy and im- portant not only because of it's size, but because of it's indication that post 0et1 1uuIOC1 OuJ AOl HUI OPCei1 countries may be handled largely by government commissions-whi in their turn will deal with organized central agencies in preference to making direct purchases from the in- dividual mills. It is not officially settled that this method will be adopt ed, but in addition to the Italian transaction noted above, there have been intimations very recently that France and England will buy lumber in this country through the high commissions" which have handled their wartime purchases. The very important question of ocean tonnage, which has bothered students of the export market more than a little, may be disposed of if the business is handled upon the lines indicated, sell lers making delivery at American ports and buyers providing cargo space.

STATISTICS OF

 IN 1917 THAN IN 1916.

Washington, D. CA bulletin soon to be issued by Director Sam L. Rog- CTS of the Bureau of the Census. De partment of Commerce, and prepared under the supervision of MT. William L. Austin, chief statistician in charge of the inquiry, shows. for the Ameri- can crop Of 1917. a production of H. 24S,242 running bales of cotton, round as half bales Equivalent to 11,302,375 bales of 500 pounds each, gross weight, worth $1,532, 690,000 to the growers, and of 5,040000 tons of cottonseed, worth $39,55O.00O; and for the cotton year" ended July 31, 1918, a consumption of 6,666, 4S9 bales (excluding linters), exports of 4,2SS,420 bales, net imports of 217,- 3S1 bales, stocks on hand at the be- ginning of the year of 2,720,173 bales and at the end of the year of 3,450,- 188 bales, and cotton spindles active at some time during the year to the number of 34,542, 665 For the entire world the production Of lint cotton destined for factory use was 17.410,- 900 and the mill consumption I7,701,- 900 bales of 800 pounds net weight
 The American crop of 1917 fell be low that of 1916 by 147,555 equivalent 500-pound bales, or 1.3 per cent, but exceeded that of 1915 by I10.555 bales, or 1 per cent. Each of these three crops were smaller than that of any year from 1910 to 1914, inclu- sive.
 Texas alone produced 3,125,378 equivalent 50O-pound bales, or nearly 2S per cent of the total crop of 1917; and three states-Geo1gia South Car olina, and Texas, each with an output of more than a million bales-produc- ed 55 per cent California, with production of 57,S26 bales in 1917. outranked Florida and Virginia. Cot ton growing in Arizona has made rapid progress during recent years. The production in that state in s1917, 1,737 equivalent 50O-pound bales, was, for the first time, greater than the Virginia crop, l8,777 bales.
 The crops of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Missouri, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia were smaller in 1917 than in 1916; but Ari- zona, California, Georgia, Louisiana. Mississippi, Oklahoma and South Carolina showed increases.
 According to the revised estimates of the Department of Agriculture. the acreage from which the crop of 1917 was harvested amounted to 33.S41, 00Ot-the smallest, with the exception of that for 1915, shown for any year since 1910. The outbreak of the Eu- ropean war brought about demoral- ized condition in the market. which had the effect of cutting down cotton planting in 1915, the acreage harvest I ed that year being only 31,412.0O0, as against S6.S32,000 the preceding year.
