Cotton Supply and Prices

Some cotton figures published in dispatch yes terday morning, though they relate to long staple cotton. contain some encouragement to local cotton growers. for a prospect of increased demand for grade of cotton means increased demand for all grades of cotton.
 Though the figures show decreased consump- tion of cotton for the year ending with July 31 as consumption greater than supposed it was. It is also shown that the hand on July 31 were much smaller than they that date last year. This together with increasing consump- ton leave reasonable doubt of an advance in the price short staple which some experts believe will reach from IS to 22 cents
 It is quite probable it will be more than that It has been many years since the acreage of short staple cotton low this country as 1t is this year and the ravages of the boil weevil were never great.
 The United States for more than fifty years produced by far the largest of the worlds staple cotton and is yet the leader. though in the last fifty years the plant has become so widely it Is possible to grow it. During the war; there falling off of cotton production almost everywhere except in the United States and parts of South America It has hardly been restored anywhere 90 that the worlds supply is smaller than in aver age years.
 This is situation which must make itself felt in the price of the higher grades of cotton.

 The Ruin of the Roads To the Editor of The Republican Sir:-
 Cannot something be done to stop the flooding of the roads. When one sets out for a Sunday drive in his neatly polished car he suddenly comes ui.on a morass in the road from which he emerges. if he emerges under his own power, with hie car spattered with mud to the top and his patience frayed. It is worse still if he has to get out and wade through the muck for help. There Is one place near the McDowell and Orange road which ts flooded at every irrigation and still another east of that. In all parts of the valley there are places whert the road is used for a waste ditch. Is there no law for the prevention of road flooding( or Is it that the law is not enforced. A TOURIST.
