From advance shorts of tho Commeroia
and Finaiioial Chronicle’s report of tin
“cotton noreatfo of the United States, Junt.
1883,” we make the following extracts,
allowing; the conditions of the planting sen
non in eiwh state, the acreage devoted to
the staple, and other matters of interes!
connected with the growing crop :
Wo are glad to say 1 hat the reports and
details we have this week received from
each state with regard to the weather
since planting began, and the condition o;
the crop and the acreage planted, cover
more sources of information than in
any previous year. Yet we must re
pent what we liuve always said
that our results as to Increase and
decrease of acreage are not claimed to
lie absolutely correct. Wo can invariably,
and with considerable accuracy, reflect the
tendency; tlml is to say, if the people of a
state, county, or section incline toward a
larger area of cotton, or toward a contrac
tion in cultivation, that we can detect and
report; but wo have found no way to
measure or determine in llgures the exact
chi age which has taken place. We claim
nothing more for our report, therefore, in
Hint particular than that it represents flic
inclination of each state, and approxi
mately the measure of that inclination.
In ante-war times such a work might
have been easier, for the development was
or, quite a different basis and was more
regular than now. Then planters all cul
tivated large plantations, and besides they
generally followed a fixed system of culti
vation. Every year they brought in new
lands and let some of the older portion go
to waste. Now new clearings are
more infrequent, old land is ferti
lized and not allowed to go to waste,
while the small cultivator is more and more
becoming the important factor in the final
result. Then, too, there is in these days
very much greater variety in crop produc
tion; a farmer can easily, and perhaps
many times unbeknown to Ids neighbors,
put a portion of his land into tobacco or
corn or wheat which had previously been
given to cotton, or lie may reverse the pro
cess, as circumstances incline him. These
are not true, of course, to the same exlent
in every state; but arc more or less the rule,
making the problem for the Investigator
who seeks to give results as to acreage not
an easy one. With these suggestions we
present the following details, covering the I
planting and conditions of growth this
year in each state. It should be added, us
to the nature of the start secured, that our
report is not as conclusive us usual,because
the crop in a large section is very back-,
ward. Consequently tho next few weeks"
may do more in this particular for the crop
(that is, in giving it a good send off , than
is usually possible after this period.
OKORCIIA.
The cold and late spring delayed farm
ing operations, so that I lie work was not
actively begun until later than in 1886.
When a start had been made, however,
rapid progress was the rule, so that al
though in some sections the finish was from
eight to ten days behind last year, in oth
ers, including the greater portion of the
state, the difference was very slight. 'flic
tenor of the returns is that in consequence
of the various unfavorable conditions—
either too cold and dry or heavy washing
rains—the start was poorer than last year
and a much larger amount of replanting
than usual was required. Stands.—A few
of our correspondents report the stands se
cured as a fair average, but a majority of
them report the stands back-
word and unsatisfactory, though
it is generally claimed that
good weather would speedily make con
siderable improvement. Where the rains
have been excessive, the Helds are rather
grassy, although at the close of May clear- j
ing is" rapidly going on. The later tele- I
graphic reports show that the condition in
most sections are becoming more favor
able. Acreage- An increase in acreage In
a few districts seems to be more than off- i
set by a reduction of the area in others, so j
that in the state at large there lues been a
loss of about 2 per cent on the average i
from last. year. Fertilizers Planters are \
making increased use of home-made for- i
tilizers, and in consequence tile commcr- j
cial varieties show a considerable decline - .
FLORIDA.
The planting season was in some districts
uf the state n little behind 11lit- previous
year, owing to rather cool weather in
March and early April. After planting had
been completed, and with the exception
of low temperat ure at night in some locali- 1
ties, the conditions favored the plant sol
that in general the seed germinated well,
although in a few instances it is said to |
have come up poorly, making a i
limited amount of replanting neces
sary ; but as compared to tho I
whole area, this replanting amounts ,
to very little indeed. Stands arc reported
fair to very good, with the plant now
making satisfactory growth. The Holds
are, os a rule, clear of weeds and grass, i
Acreage Some land has been taken out '
of upland and put into sea island cotton,
but otherwise there seems to have been no
clinngt, tin acreage for tin state remain
ing tin same as last year. Fertilizers A
littli more attention is being paid to home
made manures, but till - amount of any sort
used in Florida i* very small.

er was too
nth, for planting opera
tions; as a consequence they were delayed,
and although in some districts the pr'epa-
tions were begun about March 25, in others
there was little accomplished until from
tile 1st to the lOlhot April, or fully ten
•lays Inti r than in LK85. In consequence of
interruption from overtime, seeding was
not completed until the middle of May.
and in some instances even later. Our re
ports state that as a result of the unfavora
ble weather conditions since planting -
heavy rains and cool nights and mornings
the seed germinated poorly; that in
some localities it was washed out by rains;
and in some it. died, so that a much larger
amount of replanting than usual
was found to be required. The stand, as
can Vie inferred from the above, is, as a
rule, not good, being reported by many as
poor, while a few say fair. The continu
ance of low temperature up to near the
close of May acted as a ohccx to improve
ment, but since that date more favorable
conditions have prevailed and put the
plant in better shape. The fields have
been rather grassy, but are now being rap
idly cleaned. Acreage - There has evi
dently been no inclination on the part of
farmers in Alabama to add to the land in
cotton this year, while some have reduced
the area; we therefore estimate that there
is about 2 per cent leas land ill cotton than
in 1885. Fertilizers—-The use of home
made manures has increased to a fair ex
tent, wholly at the expense of the com
mercial sorts.
MISSISSIPPI.
The wet and unseasonably cool weather
during the early part of March delayed
farm work in Mississippi, making the
planting season average somewhat later
than a year ago. In many sections the
early planted seed was unfavorably affected
by similar conditions during April, and as
a result came up rather poorly! At other
poults, however, germination ranged from
lair to well. From various causes drought
tin heavy rains in another, and

used in Mississippi, but home-made ma

LMUIHIANA.
The cold early in April delayed farm
work, so that, although planting was be
gun as early as the latter part of March, H
did not become general until about the las.
week of April, being finally completed be
tween May 10 and 20, or from one to two
weeks later than in 1885. While the early
,limited seed in a majority of cases came
up well, the later planting germinated
poorly on account of dry weather. One ot
our correspondents, however, ascribes the
poor start to the fact that the sued was of
poor quality, having been partly spoiled
by the heavy rains of last August. In the
northwestern portion of the state, in the
ited river valley, a small amount of re
planting was done, but for lack of moisture
much of it was not up at the close of May.
Fine rains since then have changed
the outlook materially, leaving the condi
tion of the crop backward over a large sec
tion, but in tHe main satisfactory. Stands—
The stand is regarded as generally good in
north Louisiana, and in the remainder of
the state ranged June 1 from poor to fair.
With the late change in the weather the
plant has shown much improvement.
Fields are stated to be clean. Acreage—
Our returns indicate that there has been u
small addition to the area under cotton,
say about 2 per cent. Fertilizers, us is
pretty well known, are but very little
used, yet some attention is now being paid
to the home-made sorts. On this point a
report to us from central Louisiana states:
“Some planters have at last become aware
of the egregious folly of selling out their
cotton seed and planting without any ma
nure whatsoever. There is a great differ
ence in the stand where there is manure
and where there is none.”
ARKANSAS.
Planting began a few days later than last
season, but made pretty steady progress
except on the borders of the Mississippi,
where it was delayed about two weeks by
the overflow during the last half of April.
The finish was from May 5 to 22, according
to locality. The early planted seed came
up well, being aided by suflieient moisture;
later plantings, however, owing to an
almost entire absence of rain during the
month of May, came up slowly, some not
being up by June 1. Where the seed came
up early it lias made good growth, being
favored with hot, forcing weather, but at
the close of May was in need of moisture.
Replanting was required to a moderate
extent on account of drought and defec
tive seed. Stands — Subject to the
exceptions referred to, stands are
good and the Helds generally in tine con
dition. Telegraphic reports to us of and
since June 4 indicate a decided improve
ment since the opening of the month,
much needed rains having fallen. The
present prospect is, therefore, as good as
or better than in 1885. Acreage—Owing to
the overflow mentioned above some land
intended for cotton was planted in corn;
still there bos been an increase in acreage
in the whole state of about 3 per cent.
Fertilizers - Commercial fertilizers have
received less attention the present season,
but home-made sorts exhibit a slight in
crease. Tiie amount of any kind used is,
however, very small.
TEXAS.
The planting season in Texas this year
averagedlabout one week earlier than in
1885. The seed in general came up well,
but after growth began there was one week
of unseasonable cool weather, followed by
a drought, which continued throughout
the month of May. Less than the usual
amount of replanting has been necessary.
Reports from our Texas correspondents of
date June 1 stated that cotton was greatly
in need of moisture, although no actual
damage had up to that time been done, the
f eneral opinion, however, being that un-
ess rain came within a short time harm I
would ensue; the late rains were, therefore, ;
very timely and necessary. Stands were i
reported on June 1 as good, with !
the Helds unusually clean. Since j
the beginning of June the improvement in
the weather conditions which has occurred ;
lias relieved anxiety, our telegraphic re- ,
ports noting beneficial rains in almost all
quarters. Blooms are now abundant, j
Acreage —For some years Texas has been
the banner state so far us increased acre- I
age is concerned, and the present season l
proves no exception, a careful review of ,
the returns indicating a further addition
of fully 9 per cent, to the already large
area. Fertilizers receive little or no at- j
tontion.
The foregoing details are necessarily |
brief, but sufficiently elaborated, we tliinlj,
to convey a pretty clear idea of the situa
tion about June 1 in each of the cotton
states.
CONCLUSIONS.
They may be briefly stated as follows:
First—As affecting acreage, it is well t<
remember, in addition to the foregoing,
that tin - conditions under which this crop
has been planted are quite peculiar. Per- /
Imps the most prominent of these is the
very low price which the planter has re- i
eeived fur the last "crop, so that other
things being equal, his financial ability j
would be less than any previous spring lor |
a long time. Hutto qualify that eonelu-
sion, im- have the important fact that every 1
state secured a better yield in 1885 than it- i
did in any of tile two previous years. Thus, |
tor instance, Georgia raised about 15 per j
cent, more cotton in 1885 than in 1884.
added to about 14 per cent, more in 18S4
than in ISM, which represents i if the quill- !
itv had been aliki in all years; a large mar
gin against loss; perhaps «e might say af-j
fords tin assurance of profit, though it I
may be a small one. Or, take I
Texas for illustration; its crop I
Mas in 1884 only 990,0(H) hales,
whereas in 1885 it wis probably about 1,- j
210,000 bales, or an increase of over 30 per
cent. With such a change in production,
one readily sees that the simple compari
son of prices at which the crops were sold
affords no measure of the year's financial
result. Furthermore, for 1884 rnd 1885 food
crops in the south were larger than usual,
lienee it seems to be a reasonable conclu
sion that the ability of the people to raise
cotton xvas not greatly shortened through
last year's operations. But on the other
hand, planters, like every other class o
tiie world’s ivorkers, differ in resources;
many, perhaps a large majority of them,
work under debt, and depend upon ad
vances for theil supplies and cash. To all
such the extreme caution which prevails in
business circles now is n great hindrance to
cultivation; it makes credit poor, and as
prospects as to future price are not en
couraging, borrowing for crop extension
finds no favor at all; so that prudence is
generally voluntary, but where it is lack
ing it ii bus enforced.
We re. .dl these influences as essentially
contirmi;;., the results of our investigations
respecting acreage. The average is a slight,
increase over last year, hut it is made up
with one exception of slight changes, be
ing a small loss in the Atlantic states and
Alabama, and a small increase in the other
states, excepting Texas, u-hieh records a
large increase. The average quality of the
last crop M as probably poorer than usual in
Georgia, which made the result to the
planters of the state less favorable than it
ought to have been; but aside from that,
in the Atlantic States, where the land is so
largely fertilized when cultivated, the na
tural tendency of the times to incur less
debt lias had its chief influence. In most
| of the other states.wherein generally crops
! are not so diversified, and where there is
1 less expense connected with cultivation,
ilantera vmi to keep on enlarging cotton
p anting; Texas 1§, of course, exceptional;
•creage of all kinds is increasing there,and

"The area under cotton in the Indian territory
has been increased this year, but in the “other
states,” wlflch produce little cotton, there lias
*ieen a decrease: altogether 1 hr amount is snail
and we leave the figures unchanged.
Second- With regard to the maturity,
cultivation and condition of the plant, the
conclusions reached are as follows:
1I1 As to maturity, it may be said in
general that the spring has been late, tiie
planting late, and the weather up to the
first of June not favorable to germination
or rapid development, and replanting has
consequently been move widely necessary
than a year ago. This statement applies
in its entirety more decidedly to the Atlan
tic states, except North Carolina, and
largely to Alabama, a little less to Missis
sippi, and still less to Louisiana, file
other states would most likely have made
up for the late start had it not been for the
dry weather in May. We do not, how
ever, look upon the May drought
as a bad feature, for the reasons stated
in our remarks above about last year’s
crop; besides, it was.broken soon after the
first of June, and, as a consequence, the
plant in Texas, Arkansas and Tennessee is
now. we judge, in fine condition, fairly
well advanced. But for the details with
regard to each state we must refer the
reader to the above.
(2) Cultivation has been carried on better
than last year up to the first of June ex
cept in the Atlantic states; it will be re
membered that the rains the last half of
May in 1885 put the crop in grass badly at
the close of that month last spring. But
the backward state of the plant, in South
Carolina and Georgia particularly, makes
the record of the early cultivation there
this year less of a feature than usual, more
depending upon future development.
(3) Condition of the plant, as may be
f athered from what has been said, was oil
une 1 less favorable than last year in the
Atlantic states, with the exception of
North Carolina and also in Alabama; it is
not unpromising, but more dependent
than a year ago on future growth. We
should add, however (what has been more
fully said previously;, that where the plant
had started well ive consider its condition
as a fruit-bearer very satisfactory; the
doubt being with reference to the late
planted and to that portion which M'as so
sloM’ in germinating on account of the
cold. As already said, therefore, the June
weather and development is more impor
tant this year than is often the case.
Child's Suffering
From Eczema Ears and Scalp
Covered with Scabs and Sores
Cured by Cutitura.
My little son, aged eight years, has been af
flicted with Eczema of the Scalp, and at times a
great portion of the body, ever since he M as two
years old. It began in his ears, and extended to
his scalp, which became covered with scabs and
sores, and from which a sticky fluid poured oat,
causing intense itching and distress, and leaving
his hair matted and lifeless. Underneath these
scabs, the skin was raw, like a piece of beefsteak.
Gradually the hair came out and was destroyed,
until hut a small patch was left at the back of the
head. My friends in Peabody know how my lit
tle boy has suffered. At night he would scratch
his head until his pillow was covered with blood.
I used to tic his hands behind him, and in many
ways tried to prevent his scratching; but it was
no use, he would scratch. I took him to the hos
pital and to the best physicians in Peabody with
out success. About this time, some friends, who
had been cured by the CIuticuka Rembdies pre
vailed upon me to try them I began to use them
on the 16th of January last. In seven months
every particle of the disease was removed Not a
spot or scub remains on his sculp 10 tell the story
of his suffering. His hair has returned and is
thick and strong, and his scalp as sweet and clean
as any child’s in the world. I cannot say enough
to express my gratitude for this wonderful cure
by the CUTiniBA Remedies, and wish all similar-
ly afflicted to know that my statements are true
and without exaggeration.
