Exports Are Increasing.

Movement of cotton out of the coun.
try is increasing some, but the seasons
total will be disappointing. For the
week clearances were about 100000
bales, bringing the seasons total to
5,242, 600 bales. Indications, however,
are that the movement will assume
larger proportions from now on, for
there is 10 scarcity of tonnage and

in exchange, both on Great Britain and

those who are bullish, while the bur

your head tilted just a wee bit. didn't
you feel that IT Is A PRETTY GOOD
WORLD AFTER ALL
