The estimate last week Of the condi
tion Of the cotton crop for August 25
gives it the lowest condition in 80 yearp,
1913 per cent Of a normal, and pros.
pective yield of only 100000 bales,
against 10 1.2 million bales last year.
With buyers admitting that the alleged
carry-over,is one third less than claimed
last spring. it puts the worlds supply
of cotton lower than in average years.
while prospective demand is higher
than in average years. Prices up to 20
