Factors Affectino Price


 There are other factors tending to bring this years Pima to a closer parity with Deltas. Last year and the year before. we had some miser- able picking done. Seed cotton was dirty. the gins were rushed and great quantity of cotton, that should have been high grade, went east as low grade. The mills do not forget that quickly.
 This year, fortunately. conditions are different Picking is clean and the gins, using cleaning machinery. are turning out the best average grades in the history of the indus try.
 Again, compared to Egypt, this southwest country IS a very small source Of supply. Mills are not in clined to start in on this cotton until they tIsiFl some assurance that there will be a continuity of supply. What, then, could we expect from the mills. if we introduced short or Delta cot ton, reduced the Pima acreage and finally ended up with hybrids and C. conglomefate of varieties?
 Short Humid Climate Crop
 The Mead cotton, which is a prime selection of Delta staples, has been tried out in this valley by the gov ernment and pronounced by it un- fitted to the district It is simply case of trying to grow a humid cli- mate product in a dry climate. Fur thermore the so- called staples grown in the Imperial Valley and which, be- cause of cross colonization, prac- tically have no recognized identity as to variety, are not equal to the Delta staples and never have successfully competed with them. Cotton Technician's Opinions During the past few years there has hardly been a month but some cotton tekhnicfan from Egypt or England has visited me. The most striking feature to these men and the one which they comment on with the most enthusiasm, is the fact that in 1 this valley we have one-type cot | ton. which, without doubt, is pe- culiarly suited to the district and which, if maintained as a single pure type, will eventually command 1 market situation on most favorable | terms.
 Comparative Acreages From the Pacific to the Atlantic there are probably 40,000,000 acres that will grow cotton. The annual production of that vast territory is normally between 12,000,000 and 16,- | O00,000 bales. But over all this vast acreage there is probably only 300,- 900 acres suited to Pima, out of which probably not to exceed 150.000 acres can be counted on to be put annually into that crop under normal condi- tions. In other words, spots in the San Joaquin valley, 9 small acreage in the Yuma valley and probably 100, ,000 acres in the Salt River valley constitute the probable known acre. age in the entire United States that can profitably annually produce this special crop.
 Special Crop Districts What does it mean to sections of the San Joaquin valley that produce specialized crops of raisins and prunes; to the San Gabriel valley where certain sections produce the

ACTIVE IN MUSICAL
 CIRCLES IN KANSAS

Word from Kansas tells of the active part Mrs. Edgar Miller (Alice Redewill) Is taking in advancing music in that state. Mrs. Miller, who has been recognized by critics as pianist of decided ability, is not only lending her own talent bat is encouraging and developing music in her adopted state.
 According to the Anthony Bulletin, Mrs Miller is giving a series of musicales. At the most recent she played two Of Brahms ''waltzes," Pastoral by Scarlatti- -Taussig, "Ri- goletto," paraphrase by yerdi-Ldszt, and "Rondo Capriccioso" by Men delssohn.
 The Bulletin in its report of the event stated:
 Mrs. Miller has given several of these delightful musicale. which have afforded local lovers of, the best music unusual opportunities to keep in touch with the masterpieces of music. Besides being a gifted musi- clan herself. Mrs. Miller has the faculty of discovering and develop ing the musical talent in her com munity. She is a pupil of Harold Bauer and Godowsky, two of the foremost pianists and teachers of the world, and her rendition of many compositions has been pronounced by musical critics as equal almost to her masters She has been asked to appear at the concerts of the Kansas Federation of Musicians and has been invited by the conductor of the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra to appear as a soloist on a program given by that organization in the near future. Mrs. Miller studied for four years in Vienna, prior to the European war, and in that famous musical center was in touch with many artists of international repu- tation. Her playing is characterized by strength, accuracy and e5zpres- sion that is found only when unusual native ability is combined with per sistent and careful work. Mrs. Mill Ter is constantly addire to her reper- toire great variety of works.
 It is indeed fortunate for the mu- sic-lovers of Anthony that a young woman of Mrs. Miller's musical abil- ities, training and experience. takes such an active part in the promotion of good music in the community.

 have been conscious fin the past of the fact that when I made public staSeD1SHts Sruni <IllAs time ,ney were construed by some as being the expression of one who represented very large and special interest. How ever. as I have resigned my position as vice president and general man. ager or the Southwest Cotton com pany. it seems to me that now what ever I may say on the cotton indus try may properly be accepted at par and as the expression of a citizen who has had a rather large and pe- culiar opportunity to study the in- duStry and who is interested in the welfare of this valley.
 Dr. Kearney covered the subject so well in his article that I confine my self only to broad. general state ments
 believe that the introduction of cotton other than Pima into this dis frict would be nothing less than an economic disaster. So strongly do feel in that direction that I regard such move as productive of results that would be hardly less prejudicial than the discovery Of boil weeyil or pink boil worm in our midst.
 Annual Discussion
 Every year there has been discus sion among growers on the advis- ability of planting other staples. I am told that there are now several little patches of short cotton in the valley. I suppose this will be an an- nual discussion and that annually it must be contended against. Especial ly this year growers are comparing the prices of Delta staples with the prices of Sakellaridis and Pima. They do not realize that there is a short age of Delta staples this year and that many mills long accustomed to the use of that cotton are now com peting for it. or extra long staple, due to the carryover. there is not a present shortage but with the Egyp- tian crop for this year reduced to probably 100000 bales as against a normal production of 1.250,000 bales. and with Egypt steadily going back ward both in quality and yield per acre and with no known source of other supply. who then will say what the demand for the highest grade staples will be in the future?
 An analytical study of the follow ing table, prepared from sources Of information which I regard as au- thoritative, is certainly instructive as indicating the trend of yields from Egypt As a matter of general in formation I also add the American and Indian acreages and yields:

tion, impure seed and eventual ruin to an industry. I am glad to go on record with the statement that, in my Judgment, Pima cotton has a better chance now for the long pull, than it has ever had.
 This valley is not large enough for several var,etie of cotton. It is a clear-cut case of which 1t shall finally be-short or long? As the evidence stands today there can only be one answer-PIMA.
 Very truly yours.

There was an instance of too great brevity in story which appeared in The Republican yesterday morning beautiful as brevity as usually is. in connection with the arrest of Attor- ney Victor H. Harding and the 1itiga- uon which led up tC that episode.
 There was in inference from the story that NIT. Harding had been as- sociated with Attorney s. E. Rayburl in the case, that is. it was said that a suit was brought by MT. Rayburn and that Harding became associate counsel in the suit

 Net Cash Returns
 Dr. Kearney sufficiently covered the subject of Delta and short staple against Pima as it relates to prob- able net cash returns. in his article heretofore referred to. He proved beyond peradventure tkat only dur ing those abnormal periods when Deltas approximate the price Of Pima
 fe.=e..-.s h. -a go of net return be made out for the lesser staple. There surely is no warrant Tor be- lieving that except under very occa- sional and abnormal conditions can Delta cotton command the dlspro- nortionate premiums which 1t hap pens to be bringing at the present time.
 Dfferentials
 
 to s1.90 per pound. That was an ab- normality of the Civil war. Run through the record of markets for the past ten years and the differen- tial between short and Egyptians has been from to F times short. The normal differential between high grade Sakallaridis and the best Del tas should be from ten cents up.
 At those differentials, with the five to six cents advantage in total pro- duction costs of the lesser staples. no cotton. either high grade Uplands or common white, can bring as large a net return in this valley as Pima. The valley should hold steadfastly to a proven crop. It will be sad day, economically and agriculturally, when this district shifts at every changing circumstance and bases its future on guessing the uncertain re- currences of abnormal markets. That is a statement of principle. If it had been followed consistently. together with land selection and restriction of acreage to the ability and finances of the individual farmer, we would to- day have diversified farming here, Pima cotton would be on even more certain basis than it now is, and hun dreds of farmers, though sustaining losses, would have been in far bet ter condition to rebuild their posi- tion.
 Diversified farming; specialization of crops on certain lands in certain districts logical therefor; co-ordina- tion ofscrops to utilize land, labor and stock to their highest efficiency; these surely are the principles upon which this valley must progress. Strategic Position
 In the application of those princf- ples there is no place for short cot ton. There is a most important place for Pima. This valley surely will never throw away it's strategic posi- 1 tion-the most strategic of any sec ton of considerable acreage in the erld-and play with mere experi- ''ent which, if indulged in only to a small degree, means cross-poloniza-
