COTTON CONDITION
REPORTS FAVORABLE
BENEFITED MATERIALLY BY THE
WEATHER CONDITIONS IN
COTTON BELT.
PERCENTAGE PLACED At 72.4
Crop of 1922, COO Bales Is Estimated
on Basis of Government
Formula.

New York. - A detailed analysis of
reports received from approximately
1,600 reliable correspondents of the
Journal of Commerce leads to the be-
lief that cotton has benefited material
ly by the Improvement in weather con-
ditions noted throughout the greater
part of the cotton belt the past two
weeks or more. These returns, gath
cred under an average date of June
"a place the estimate Of percentage
condition at 72.4 per cent, an increase
of per cent over last month, and the
highest June condition figure since
1918, when it was estimated at S21
per cent.
1t is, however, not the largest in
crease in recent years, since in jane,
1920 a gain Of 3.5 per cent was iGdi-
Gated and in 1918 of 1.9 per cent. Last
June there was decline Of per
cent and in 1919 no less than IL per
cent. Percentage condition a year
ago was only 6S.3 per cent, but 71.5
in 1920 and TIA per cent the year be-
fore that.
Although considerable late cotton
has been planted during June, cor
respondents have not changed their
estimate of acreage increase for the
whole belt, and the total is placed by
the government at 34.339,000 acres.
From this, with condition Of 72.4 per
cent, according to the government
formula a crop Of 11,224,000 bales
might be raised which compares with
an actual production last year Of T.
953. .641 bales, 13,439,6O3 bales in 1920,
and 16,134,93O bales in the banner year
of 1916.

dyer ANTELYNCH|NG.
. BILL IS APPROVED.
REPORTED FAVORABLY TO THE
SENATE BY VOTE OF
EIGHT TO SIX.
BILL HAS PASSED THE HOUSE
Measure Provides Penalties by the
| Federal Government For Vio-
lence by Mobs.

Washington. - The Dyer antilynch-
ling bill, providing penalties by the
federal government for mob action,
twas reported favorably with amend.
iments blythe senate judiciary com.
Imittee, by vote of to 6.
(; Senators Ashurst, democrat, Ari-
zona. and Norris, republican, Nebras-
;ka, did not vote.
The vote ended a long committee
fight over the bill, which was passed
last January by the house and which
has been urged by negro and other
organizations. Opponents Of the
measure have declared it an unconsti-
tutional interference with state rights.
Comparatively few changes were
made in the original house bill and
these were said to be designed to meet
the constitutional objections.
A subcommittee of the senate COM
mittee recently recommended defeat
of the bill on the ground that 1t vio-
lated the constitution. Some senators
voting for favorable report were said
to hold doubts regarding it's constitu-
tionality but thought the bill should
be enacted and put up to the supreme
court
The bill declares that II states fail,
neglect or refuse to maintain protec-
ton Of life, they shall be deemed to
have denied the constitutional guaran-
tees and the federal authorities will
have power to act by indictment OF
state officers or members Of mob
and trial in the federal courts.
The measure requires reasonable"
effort by state officers to maintain or
der and protect prisoners and their
failure would subject them to i'm
prisonment for five years and fine OF
$4,000. Members of mobs which a
prisoner is put to death would be SUBJ
ject to conviction for conspiracy with
Imprisonment for five years to life
provided.
Counties in which fatal mob disor-
ders occur would be liable to the
family Of the victim under forfeit Of
$4,000
Amendments adopted by the senate
committee require that failure to the
state officers to protect mob victims
must be charged in the federal indict-
ment and proven 10 the satisfaction
of the federal trial court.
. The bill has had an unusually bad
course in the senate committee after
a stormy birth in the house. After ly-
ing in the judiciary committee without
action for several months, Senator
Lodge. OF Massachusetts. republican
leader, and other republicans started
the movement for disposition by the
committee which eliminated in a fav-
orable vote. Republican leaders were
doubtful, however. whether senate
consideration could be secured at this
session.
Eight republicans, Chairman Nelson,
Minnesota; Dillingham;, Vermont;
Brandegee. Connecticut; Cummings,
Iowa; Colt, Rhode Island; Sterling,
South Dakota; Ernest. Kentucky, and
Shortridge, California, voted in favor
OF the bill One republican, Senator
Borah, Idaho, and five democrats, Cul-
berson, Texas; Overman, North Caro-
lima; Reed, Missouri; Shields, Ten
nessee, and Walsh, Montana, were rec
orded in opposition.

To Northern Marts.

Bamberg. - Thousands Of crates OF
cucumbers, beans and asparagus have
been shipped from Bamberg this year.
While the cucumber prices have been
disappointing, the association has re-
ceived tn assurance OF the produce
merchants of northern receiving points
that the Bamberg product has been
we'll graded and well packed and the
reputation will be Of vast benefit to
this county in the future.
The glut OF the cucumber market
lust at the time when shipping was
heaviest from Bamberg resulted dis
astrously to the cucumber growers
here and this Is accounted for largely
because of the great increase in acre
age this year in this particular section
where cucumbers are shipped at the
same time. The truck association has
decided to enter into a larger field OF
usefulness, and Col. w. A. Klauber,
the president, is preparing list OF
farmers who are agreeing to grow
specified acreage in Bermuda onions,
beets, peas, lettuce aid carrots during
the coming winter. The acreage Is
usually small, so that in the event the
crop does not turn out we'll the loss
will not fall heavily on anyone. These
various crops are very promising and
have proven very profitable In years
past. With the exception Of peas and
lettuce, the crops above named are
not perishable and there is no reason
why excellent prices cannot be COM
manded. These being winter crops.
practically no time will be taken from
the usual farm work and sales Will
come in at a very convenient season.
