AMERICANS MEET
FOR CONFERENCE

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-Suspen.
sion of all naval construction by the
United States during the armament
conference may be announced by
President Harding in his speech
opening the conference Saturday.
1t was indicated today that the
president is considering the advisa-
bility of ordering such suspension as
an evidence of the dee pearnestness
and complete good faith of this
country for limitation of ornaments.
Senator Pomerene, Democrat, of
Ohio, who has introduced a resofu-
ton for such a suspension, con-
ferred today with President Harding
regarding it, but would not indicate
afterward how soon he might at
tempt to call it up for action.
Senator Pomerene has taken the
position that to halt naval building
during the conference would be the
best possible demonstration of the
good faith of this government. He
is understood to have strongly urged
these views upon the president.

Information brought to light We'd

6,646,13 BALES
Of COTTON G|NNED
UP TO NOVEMBER |
BY ESTES DOREMUS.

Heavy ginning figures made public
in Washington Wednesday morning
showing 6,646,136 bales of cotton
ginned to November 1, against T.
50S,633 for the same month in 1920
and carrying a supplementary report
showing the average weight of bales
as 1922 against 511.2 year ago,
was the signal for a selling drive
on the New York Cotton Exchange
and in the first few minutes of trad
ing active options on the board drop
per from 20 to SO points below the
closing figures of Monday, Tuesday
having been a holiday. The ginning
figures for Georgia were 796,9OO IN
dicating a total crop for the state
of 100000 bales.
The report flashed to the floor of
the exchange at the opening was dis
appointing to long interests, who
were expecting figures around $780,
900 bales and a drive by bears and
scattered covering by bulls had a
depressing effect on values. which
later slumped off from 40 to 50
points.
The report gave no hint of cotton
YET to be ginned, but the prevailing
opinion is that there still are about
100000 bales, which would bring
the total yield for the season to
100000 bales in round figures.
In addition to the disappointing
size of the figures in bales ginned
the average weight of 502.5 pounds
apparently had it's bearish effect, as
the trade had been expecting much
lighter bales to make up for the dis
crepancy between ginning figures
and estimates of the full yield pre-
dicted on the last condition report
of the growing crop. The condition
report is based on bales averaging
500 pounds. This report accounts
for less than 100000 bales, and yet
more than 100000 bales already
have been ginned with an average
weight of two pounds over that Of
the bureau.
The crux of the situation is the
amount of cotton yet to be baled,
and there is no definite way to ar
rive at anything like accurate fig
ureS. If the bureau is accepted as
approXimating the actual crop, then
virtually the entire crop has been
ginned. If the bureau is short, as
1t generally is, then there still is
cotton to be ginned and a total crop
of between 100000 and 100000
bales may be looked for.
So far as Georgia is concerned, it
appears that the estimate of $780,
900 bales for the state will not fall
far from the actual mark.

Throughout Telfair county, many
pecan and peachtrees are being
planted.
Profit in Steers
AS elsewhere in the state, there
is a big surplus of corn in Telfair
county. Some little Of it is being
sold, but the bulk will be used as
stock and cattle feed.
II expect to sell my surplus corn
and velvet beans on the hoof," said
Mr.. McRae, who has just purchased
IA steers from Tennessee.
II paid IL cents a pound fol
those steers" he said, land I have
a contract to sell them next March
for cents pound. 1 believe
made a good investment. l am go
ing to sell my surplus feed crops
through those steers, and l am sure
it will profit me-"
The average weight of the steers
was $50 pounds, and Mr.. McRae ex
poets to put $50 pounds on each
of them through the winter.
II expect to sell them at weights
averaging 1000 1 ,unds EACH" he
said. "They should bring about $50
each on the hoof. They cost me or
an average of $33,75 each, so tina
my gross profit on each steer will
be about $26. If 1 didn't have al
abundance Of feedstuff. with lots Of
admirable pasturage, couldn't fat
ten them for $26 each during the
four months. But / calculate with
what 1 have, the venture will net
me a satisfactory profit"
There are lots of potatoes in Tel
fair county this year, and there are
curing houses at Lumber City an(
Helena, which are handling a large
quantity. The price is low, but sucl
as are being sold are giving to the
farmers ready cash.
During the season. it is estimated
so carloads of hogs will be shipped
from McRae and Helena, and in ad
dition much meat will he cured a
home. The city of McRae provides
cold storage facilities for handling
meats.
