Tbs Dallas Commercial | club added a bonus of 525. Captain C. F. Carter, one of the most reopon sible buyerx in Texas, said loday: "Texas this year will tweak her cotton crop records. The yield will in mv Judgment go close to the 4,000,000 bale mark, and may even exceed that fig ure. All the talk and print about damage from boll worms amount «o nothing. There are boll" worms in the field, but the damage from them will be nominal. 801 l worms arc always In evidence with a big crop. They do I not feed on the vital parts of the cot ton. ft Is the caterpillar that does that. There’s no caierplllar in this year's crop. I see no prospects of (be price of cotton going higher this j year.’’ A Good Atlas. A bandy companion to the news, thoM- days, is the new Herald Atlas, (published by Rand. McNally & Co., of Chicago.

Aug. 33.—A letter received from Dr. Wilson, director of the Commercial Museum, from C. A Green of the commlslsou to study and report on the opportunities for the ex- I tension of United Btate* commerce In China, sent out hy the Museum, states some plain truths about the lack of care exercised In pafklng American i raw cotton for shipment to Japan. Mr. 1 Oret?n spent some time In Japan on his way to China. The exports of raw cot-1 ton to Japan ?rom the United Slates ore Increasing rapidly, the gain last | year over 1896 being greater than the gain of the exports of the same pro duct from any other country. Mr. Green eaya the trade should be cautioned at oncp of the things that are disgusting (he buyers, dirt, packing j and underweight. This causes delay i snd expense, and often o commissioner to determine the shortoge, Bombay bales are always accepted as marked. Every American bole has to be weigh ed. In a report made by the assistant I secretary of ttr> Rritiah legation p.t I Toklo It Is stated that In 1897 imports ; of raw cotton from the United States to Japan amounted to 46,365,097 pound*. The Increase In the value of these Im portations over 1896 was more than three million yen, about. $1,500,000. and more than three times as much cotton as was shipped from the United States In 1897 than in 1895.
