COTTON PRODUCTION AND.
DIS 7 R | B j T|ON 191S-19

Washington. Director Sam l.. Rog
ers has issued the annual report on
cotton production and distribution for
the season Of l9lS-l9. The bulletin
contains data concerning the acreage
In and production of cotton in the
United States; the quantities ginned
/ to specified dates; its import, export,
ana consumption; the stocks held in
mills, at comprcsses, and in public
storage; the Imports and exports OF
cotton goods; the worlds production
and consumption Of cotton; the pro-
duction crush and, stocks OF cotton
seeds; and the production shipment,
export, and stocks OF cottonseed pro
duets.
The unusual conditions of the time
are reflected rather pointcdlv by the
statistics shown in the report. The
crop ot 1915 was the fourth successive
small crop produced both in this
country and throughout the world.
The worlds total for these four crops
not including linters in the United
Statc., was 10,sS3 600 equivalent 800
pound net weight bales, which com
parcs with o7355 900 bales for IN"
preceding four years. Notwithsnnd.
ing this reduced production the ear
ry-oyer' at the end Of the season in
this country was the largest ever re
corded. Two factors were mainly re-
sponsible for this condition, ND the
actual quantity consumed in Europe
was very much below normal, al
t,,..I a
scarcity Of cotton goods since the pc
riod Immediately following the Civil
war, and t2) the transportation facili-
ties for exporting cotton had not yet
become normal Another factor enter
ing into the situation was the inabil-
its ON the part Of Europe To plIr-
chase cotton freely because Of un-
.labr conditions in some ot the couu-
tries and bocdusc of the cNtraordinar.
ily high rates of exchange.
During the twelvcmonth period end.
ing ,uly, 1919. 5,765,g36 bales Of cot
ton and l57,90l bales of lintcrs. a to-
tai Of G.22]S37 bales were consumed.
This was the smallest amount report
ed for any year since 1915, and com
pared with the total Of 1885, 1929 bales
in 1915 a reduction Of nearly a mil
lion and Il half bales about 100000 of
which are accounted for by the re
ducrd consumption Of lintcrS, due To

1t was never sought to develop the Hudson
SuperSix as the greatest speed and power car
in the world.
1t is true that in speed-in hill-cliinbing-
in quick acceleration TO 5 O k car ever
matched it. Official records show that. But
they are incidental. They were made in tests
to prove Hudson endurance.
Surely these great performance qualities are
enough to account for Hudson's five years Of
leadership as the largest selling fine car in the
world. Any owner would take pride in car
that none has equalled in any worthwhile per
Iormance record
Yet large class of Hudson buyers selected
it for an altogether different quality.
