BIG COTTON ACREAGE NEXT YEAR PREDICTED Atlanta^ Ga-, Dec. 14.—Acreage seeded to-«otton in 1923 in the South will be just as large as is physically and humanly possible. Such, at least tfee prediction of cotton men in re ports received by dealers in Atlanta. Amid the uncertainties that be* cloud to the staple represents the one practical certainty on the thres* hold of the new year, according Frank Inman, one of the Sooth’s best known cotton men here. Other ton men take the same view as Inman. The Cotton Storage Finance Company, of which Mr. Inman treasurer, have received reports from all sections of the South which bear out the prediction of a vast cotton acreage. The noted Candler warehouses, now in charge of the Cotton Storage Finance Campany, are storing ton for the Georgia Co-operative As sociation, which is the big agency for cooperative marketing of the staple in Georgia. Free Storage For Seed. Growers in Georgia, particularly in the northern section of the i have joined the movement started in Atlanta by the Atlanta Com mercial Exchange and representatives of the city and country banks, to improve the quality of seed 1 used in the next cotton crop. The The Cotton Storage Finance Company with its immense storage facilities the Candler warehouses, have offered free storage space for all cotto n seed shipped into Georgia on account of the campaign to improve the seed of the State. The imperative need for increased cotton yield has been consistently 1 shown in figures which have been compiled bere. These statistics dis close that because of the rapidity with which consumption is outrunn ing world production, the loss in the world’s reserve supply of cotton for the seasons 1921-22 and 1922-23 will be slightly more than 8,500,000 bales The decrease for 1921-22 was 5y 306,000 bales, giving a total shrink age for the two seasons 8,603,000 This loss, as pointed out by Inman and other cotton men in At lanta, is without precedent in the history of the whole industry and, cotton men declare, it makes it abso lutely necessary to greatly increase production or to restore the uneven- balance as between production and onsumption by substantially de creasing the latter. Less consumption, ft is pointed out, is neither expected nor desired. It would seem that conditions are about right for a bumper crop at top price, as the world seems t adjusted for such a program, but, ne Atlanta businesi man puts it, wonder what the biggest growers have up their sleeves when they predict an oldtime bumper crop, with the weevil still unconquered.” NOTICE F. & A.

Road Forecast. Fair weather is Indicated, and much 'colder during the next several days cruisers and suraarine programs w planned abroad, adding: "In other words, competition is again in the single direction to which the unratified agreement (the Wash ington naval treaty) does not extend and if it be allowed to go unchecked the purse strings again must be laxed and this government, like all others, will be constrained to launch program to the extent sary to keep up at least abreast of any of the other powers.” President Harding was not consult ed by the committee with relation its limitation conference request. The project for negotiations apparent surprise even to naval officials. It was originated by Chair- Kelley of the naval appropria tion subcommittee. The chief reason prompting Mr. Kelley to propose a new naval con ference was understood to have been the light cruiser program recommend ed by the navy general board. No mention of this is included in the published copies of committee hear ings on the bill. The program urged however, as necessary to keep the United States navy on a -parity with other navies in erasers included six- light cruisers, within the 10,000-ton size limitation of the Washington treaty and to cost $168,- 000,000. The committee also eliminated from its published hearings testimony of naval intelligence officers on tha program of construction abroad. this information Copyright 1922 Hart Scheiber & Marx A Mens’ Store’s Christmas Message to Women You know how hard it is to choose gifts for Men.
