of experiments with bales of all the <!:f~

results could be had from those made in
pres“-ooxcs ill indies wide by r>4!.m-,and
this ize has been adopted as the standard
uy all the Cotton Growers Associations in
Western and Gulf States; ahso by the
(ionve&liou in Atlanta, Ga., last May.
This si/.n < 24x54 j was found to press to
a greater density, and when pressed at
the Compress, the bagging usually placed
on a hale of cotton would then cut er
bale,completely and prevent any dumage

for this chuncc, and that it is to
interest to do all that is in your

very little expense by lining the inside

This amount is too small t.o spare,
thereby continue to sutler the loss
by discriminations in the past, as
well as additional onus that will surely
follow.
The Eu.opean mills use about ti irop
fourths of our cotton crop, and of course
they have n groat den! to do with the price
of cotton, therefore it is to our interest to
see that it Is shipped in the condition they
want it, aud by reducing the damage and
the cost of tramportutiou, the grower will
get that much more for his cotton.
\\ n have received letters from a majori
ty of lhr dinners in our territory, and
they promise to alter their press-boxes to
the standard size. Wc respectfully solicit
