I There's no use being pes-
1 simistic over the fact that
cotton took • drop last week.
it was a natural consequence
for two reasons. One was that
a price can't stay sky-rocket-
ed forever. It must have its
bad momends. Another is that
the government's report, which
showed an increase over the
last one. was not large enough
to really warrant a big drop
I in the price. esde
Many who anticipated the
Increase the. day before jump-
ed in and sold huge blocks
The day the break came many
others followed suit. Naturally
that meant a drop in the mar-
ket price.
The government report did
not take into consideration the
tact'that much cotton had been
damaged from rains and floods.
This report was compiled from
figures before the damage. The
next report, will show a de-
crease accprdingly.
Twclve-ient cotton is sure
to come ‘to Texas this year.
And it will mean plenty to the
farmers who are laboring un-
der taxes and mortgages and
leans made in other years.
