With such an unprecedented short
crop, the price should advance az

the crop is marketed gradually, so
as TO give the mills their actual needs
and no more, the price should ma
terially advance, and the crop should
maintain this advance.

stating that the cost of producing
this cotton crop is the lowese in years

for cotton will yield a good profit 20
