"The natural result of this order Is that those mills which have on band all the supplies they are allowed to carry, are temporarily out of the mar ket, and the price has been affected accordingly. It should be clearly and distinctly understood, however, that the govern ment ha a in no sense sought to regu late either supply or price of seed in "The bureau presents tbe foregoing simply as a statement of facts con cerning certain phases of tbe situation, and trusts that the farmers of Georgia will be able to profit by It." Director L. B. Jackson, of the State Beureau of Markets, has been assured that the railroads will take this mat ter up at an early meeting In Cincin nati, and the result which Is expect ed to be a favorable one, will bo known within the next few days.

"It is impossible, of course, for any one to tell what manipulators, taking advantage of the last opportunity that may be offered them, will be able lo do with the market; but it is and always has been the opinion of this bureau that tho price of cotton seed should be maintained on practically the same parity with hog lard. Be fore the war began and since cotton seed oil ha a sold at 2 cents a pound talned that position; now It Is selling at 8 cents a pound less than hog lard, and the difference is too great. It Is that sooner or later It will take it, England Included. "My opinion has not not changed ono iota with regard to the value of this crop, I believe It worth 30 cents e pound, and that before very long you will see It at that figure. Every statement we have made about this situation, has been borne out bo de velopments, and those who hold their cotton now, 1 am confident will cer tainly congratulate themselves that they did so.” As the result of a recent conference with railroad officials In Savannah, the Georgia State Bureau of Markets now feels confident that "milling in slvely demonstrated that they contain double the amount of protein there Is In corn. Taking tho other well- known protein bearing products a 8 a basis, it Is the opinion of the Bureau ot Markets that velvet beans in the pod are well worth today |25 per ton and more.
