NEW COTTON YEAR
OPENED YESTERDAY
PRICE HAS DROPPED FROM SO
TO 10 CENTS IN TWELVE
MONTHS TIME.

July 31st marked the close of the
/ old cotton season, and yesterday, Au-
gust LIST, was the opening of the new
season.
The past year the warehouses of
Dawson received by wagon 1880
bales of cotton. They now have on
hand $3.50 bales of former crops.
The year has seen the price of cot
ton drop nearly 80 cents a pound. The
highest price for middling during the
year was 40 cents and the lowest "a
cents.
The price offered for cotton last
August was 80 cents. By the first week
Iof last December the price had dropp-
ed to 10 IA cents. This continual drop
ping in price struck terror to the hearts
of farmers, who saw the money they
expected to realize from their labor
becoming dead loss.
Better Days Coming.
Better days in the cotton business
are looked forward to with the start
ing of the new season. While the for
eign shipments have been considerably
less than those of last year, it is ex-
pected with a more settled condition
prevailing in Europe industrial life will
reawaken there and there will come a
stronger demand for American cotton.
Japan and China are already becoming
Somewhat heavy buyers of American
cotton, their demand for the season
totaling 57.417 bales. 1t is believed
with steady and strong demand for
American cotton from abroad the price
of this great necessity will gradually
rise.
