Second — Because during the past five years the South Jias only onee pro duced a crop of over 11,000,000 bales, which was fn a sense a “freak of na ture," resulting in the most marvel ous concentration of favorable condi tlons ever known In the history ol the trade. Third—Because It is becoming more and more evident that the advance in the price of labor and its diversion from agriculture to manufacturing and Industrial pursuits Is rendering It al most Impossible for the South much to Increase Its acreage next year. Under these circumstances, inas much as there seems but a slim possi bility of any such crop, I believe cot ton must either go to a price that will check consumption or Induce an ulti mate Increase in production. The lateness of the crop, consequent upon the bad weather recently reported, is but an incident In the situation which will serve still further to intensify the action of the influences above men tioned. THEO. H. PRICE. Interest in cotton is rapidly shift ing to the new crop positions. Trad ing in October and December is now quite active. If the market is a pur chase, these are the months to buy. Liverpool closed 7 dywn on near po sitions and 6 lower on distant ones. The new crop promises to get off badly. Reports from Texas say the balance of the crop there 1b stubbornly held at a half-dent above the market. May not be sold at all. Watch the weather In May. It is Impossible to make a big crop on a wet May. A good deal of talk is still heai£ of incorporating East Albany. The City Council left the burg across the Flint out of the fold when the limits were extended last year, and the matter<waB considered definitely settled, though it may be reopened In the not distant fu ture. It seems to be definitely under stood that EaBt Albany will Incorpor ate on her own hoolj: If not taken In by this city. t Albany Decorating Co., Paints, Oils, Varnishes, Wall Paper, Burlaps, Room Mouldings.
