The Federal Crop Reporting
Board announces that the cotton
crop is in eight per cent lower
condition in the United States as
a whole, than it was at this time
last year.
Texas is the only’ state in the ;
Union in which cotton is reported
in better condition than last year
and we show the highest per-
centage in condition of any state
The Texas acreage is estimated
at 10,927,000 against 84,097,000 in
continental United States. The
condition of the Texas crop is
shown at *9 per cent of normal
against 80.4 in th« United States.
Reducing the estimate to bales
it means that Texas will produce
this year 4,203,000 bales and the
IJjnitod States 18.000,000 bales.

There were 209 establishments
in Texas engaged in crushing
cottonseed during the year 1911,
according to a report recently
issued by the United States De-
partment of Commerce and
Labor. The Texas mills crushed
approximately one and one half
million tons of seed during that
year. Seventeen new cottonseed
oil mills were opened for operat-
ion during 1911.

the Suspicious Neighbor, with sup-

most of us have something coming to
