In a note on the South African cotton
industry, which appears in Production,
March 1920, it is mentioned that the ex-
port of cotton from South Africa last
crop was II tons, while this crop it was
700 tons. The note goes on to point out
the probability of cotton being a profit
able crop for some years to come.
When it is remembered that 500 tb of
cotton was used for making one shell it
will easily be recognized that the short
