1899 this state produced 1,296,844 com*
mercial balestof cotton, of which 57,812
were sea island or long staple. The
bulletin also shows that the round bale
is growing in popularity in Georgia,
and that of the 1899 crop 18,915 round
bales were packed and shipped in thisi
state. i
But perhaps the most interesting
feature of the bulletin is that which!

gia, stands fourth as to the number of

more than 20,000 each, these being
