WEEKLY(OTTO> LETTER
By
Savannah Cotton Factorage Co.
(All Inquiries Promptly Answered)
The much-talked-of Government
Condition Report was published Fri
day, September Ist, placing the Condi
tion as of August 25 at 57.0, indicat
ing a crop of 10,575,000 bales. The
yield per acre was given as 145.2 lbs.
and the loss in condition for the per
iod as 13.8, against a ten year average
of 7.7. Acreage bandoned from June
25th to August 25th was 370,000, leav
ing 34,485,000 in cultivation.
The following table covering prin
cipal cotton growing states may prove
of interest:
Acres to
State Acreage Est. Yield the Bale !
N. Car. 1.587.000 750,000 2.11 ;
S. Car 2,197,00 687,000 3.19 j
Georgia 4,005,000 968,000 413 j
Alabama 2,985.000
Texas 12,250,00 3,644,000 3.36
Oklahoma 2.797,000
Arkansas 2,833,000 969,000 2.92
Miss. 3,178,000 1,003.000 3.16
La. 1,287.000 414,000 3.10
Or an average of about 3 1-4 acres
to the bale. We think many of the
esimates are too high, especially Geor
gia and Texas. No doubt the final
yield will be around 9,750,000 bales as
the condition from August 25th to
September 25th usually falls off a
great deal.
Sales of cloth in New England 1 are
larger than they have been for some
time, and prices are advancing. Sev
eral mills have been for some time,
and prices are advancing. Several
mills have sold their output far ahead
and are not anxious for new business.
Germany has been granted six months.
relief from indemnity payments. This
should enable that country to buy
more of our cotton.
It has been feared that many cotton
mills in this country would be com
pelled to close due to the coal short
age, but Secretary Hoover announced
this week that sufficient stocks were
now in sight to prevent shut-d'owns.
Now that Europe realizes there will
not be more than 3,000,000 to 3,500,000
bales for export if American buyers
take 6,500,00 bales, we look for a bet
ter demand from abroad. Based on
statistics the country which buys first
will be the one to get its share of
American cotton.

left this week for Valdosta to enter

! see that all arrangements will be
| pushed to completion as fast as pos
sible as the date for the Fair is close
at hand, being on the 17th, 18th, 19th
20th, and 21st of October.
The premium list was published a
few weeks ago in both county papers
and is the best ever offered in this
