mas holidays, when the acreage
committee predict ted that the carry
over would not be less than 5000, 900
bales. Thus 1T is that our fears have
not only been confirmed but the sit
uation is even worse than we SEEM
ed warranted in predicting a few
months ago.
A desperate effort has been made
during the last three weeks to nd
vance the price OF cotton. 1t Ii u
trick Of those who want cheap cot
ton. to advance the price about plant
ing time. The trick has been used so
often that 1t can now deceive no one
Efforts to advance the price OF cot
ton while determined have failed,
and this fact of itself should be q
sufficient warming to farmers not to
he misled. When those who want
cheap cotton and who ordinarily
control the price OF cotton cannot
advance the price for II purpose. 1t is
not likely that the farmer will he
able to advance it.
Cotton acreage must be reduced,
and the reduction must be adequate.
Anything less than 50 per cent COM
pared with last year will not be ade-
quate.
There is now enough cotton In the
world unspun to last nearly two
years.
The world will carry over this
year more American cotton than
was spun during the past twelve
months
The carry-over, including inters,
may approximate II ,00O, 900 bales. or
from five to six times Il normal car
ry-over of American cotton.
The United States cannot consume
more than about 100000 bales an
nually.
Europe, which ordinarily takes
the surplus of the American crop, or
about so per cent of the crop, IL very
unpromising as u market, because
of deprecated currency and lack Of
security to offer as Il basis of credit.
The buying power of the world is
far below normal, but the supply OF
cotton is now vastly In excess of
every normal requirement,
1t will cost more to produce new
crop than it can he sold for at pres
ent prices and there is no present
prospect that prices will advance.
Cotton can now be bought cheap
er than 1t can be produced. 1t Ia bet
ter, therefore, to buy cotton or To
hold what you now own than To
grow more. Every bale purchased
tends to advance prices; every acre
planted tends to make prices 40
down.
Unless cotton can be produced
profitably 1t would he worse thln
folly to attempt to produce 1t at all.
1t is impossible to recover losses
by mourning more losses-that Is the
road to bankruptcy.
Unless cotton can be sold 1t will
not pay debts or taxes, neither can
we eat it.

ODD Series TO Dope
II is an odd series to dope. In the

of course, comes Waite Hoyt, the KID
who IS beyond all doubt wonder, hut
whose style Is far more familiar 10 the
Giants than that Of Mays
The strength OF Nays against the
Giants cannot be overestimated. In spite
Of his recent slump In form. due largely
TO too much work. He has style which
Is entirely different from anything IN
the National. and he has plenty OF STUN
TO back up that popularity. Odoly
enough. II you recall IT, Fred ToneS' NO"
one OF the chief hopes OF the Giants IN
this series. was when he nrst started IN
baseball exactly the same style o.

mixed with his swift" (Which ne

asset against the fanks.

When Mays and Hoyt have shot their
frst shots at the Giants the Yanks face
n dilemma-for Harper Is about all that
Is left. 1t IS a proved and demonstrate
ed fact that Mays cannot repeat quick
w after pitching a hard game without
showing the effect. Harper Is not the
tyne that can beat q team made up as
the Giants are mare. 1t dopes tat the

There is one thing which bothers me
a BIT. and that is this: You know. OF

selection OF pitchers. There Is Il chance
or break the series merely by switching
pitchers and out-guessing the opposing
team.
want to say this: That every world
series In the last two decades has been
