REPORT] Condition Lowest on Record at This Time With the Single Exception of 1907. WASHINGTON. June 4.- According to a report issued today by the depart ment of agriculture, the condition of cotton as of May 25. Was 78.9 per cent of a normal crop, as compared with 87.8 on May 25. 1911. and 82 on May 25. 1910. and 81.1 on May 25. 1909, and Si.s per cent, the average of the past ten years, on May 25. The government s report today on the condition of cotton on May 25 about met expectations of the trade, guesses ranging between 77 and 80. 3'ne condition was given at 78.9, which is the lowest June condition on record, w ith the exception of 1907. when it was 70.5. The. failure, however, by the government to issue the. usual es timate of the acreage renders the con dition report practically worthless, and in that respect differs from the report of 1907. The commercial crop in 1907, ac-' cording to Secretary Hester, totalled 1 1,572.000 bales on 31,311.000 acres. The fact that the growing season has been shortened a month or more, or to sucti an extent as to cause the government to postpone the acreage report to July, leaves the trade to reckon with the acreage a month 'hence and with a plant that.gained its life under adverse circumstances. The figure today do not furnish data on which to predict the size of the next crop, though they ate considered bullish, unless frost occurs at an unusually late date. The following table shows the condi tions by states this year as compared w ith past years: ——i] J i i ; j io- States. 1912 1911 1910 1909 1908 1907 Yr. _ i i_ i i i i ; Av.

Borden Furnishes a Con vincing Answer. • By B. C. FORBES. NEM YORK, .lune 4. —Arc sharp prac tices necessary to success in these days of catch-as-catch-can business? Must trick ery be resorted to at least once in a while? Does the employer have to forget what he was taught in Sunday school when i* comes to dealing with his employees? Is a large, human heart an obstacle to great prosperity? Beset by Romans, is it compulstory to do as they do or go them one better'.’ Can a man in a large way of business afford to listen to his con science? Or is he the victim of circum stances, driven hither and thither by forces beyond his control? ♦ • < The records, just closed, of M. C. D. Borden, the king of cotton manufactur ers. supplies as good an answer i<? these questions as anything I know—you. no doubt. Jaave read something about him irr the Wmtuaries. ♦ • ♦ Few men have had to encounter more troublesome problems In conducting their business. To run a cotton mill smoothly and successfully is never easy; sometimes it is well-nigh impossible The textile trade is exposed to violent fluctuations, due in part to the drastic swings in the price of raw material, occasionally to a drastic falling off in demand for mer chandise, at other times to widespread la bor troubles, and. at long intervals, to po litical uncertainties. Moreover, in this peculiar industry no monopoly or monop olistic amalgamation has arisen. Compe tition of the old-fashioned kind still rules. The tactics of rivals often prove trouble some. < Josts have tn he rigidly kept down. Yet strikes must be averted whenever possible. ♦ ♦ • Mr Borden M <’. as he was called in the trade proved equal to all emer- gencies. More, he triumphed over them by methods al once brilliant and lauda ble. by methods that won for him the admiral ion of the workers and the re spect of other manufacturers. Did a glut of goods threaten Io choke the market and inflict upon the mills a period of Idleness. Mr. Borden would by one bold stroke re move the danger, On one memorable oc casion he bought a million and a half pieces of cloth to avert what would haxe been a catastrophe to thousands of em ployees In other mills At another criti cal time, when distress appeared inevita ble. when wages were about to be cut," he stepped forward and did a daring thing instead of reducing the pay of his large army of workers he announced a substantial advance. Others had to fol low his example. And bankruptcy did not result The modesty of the great, the deter mination nf the strong, the confidence of the just were all embodied in this fine type of New England merchant man ti fact u re r. • • • In these days of denouncement of com petition and worship of “co operation' it is worth noting that the greatest cotton mill owner .America has produced n<»t sympathize with the brand of co-operation generally advocated, lie would not unite with other manufacturers to act in con cert against employees or consumers. He had his own standards of fair dealing and would not he hound by the fiats of any association lie was of broader gauge than most nf his competitors. Up never descended to the petty. He took a large, wide, wholesome view of his responsibil ities toward his fellow-men. His action not infrequently showed that his heart was more with the thousand of toilers de pendent upon him than with those of his own station in life v * • • And yet his magnanimity paid. Gen erosity proved a profitable policy Which suggests that the real leaders In other branches of the textile and dry goods business (not to look farther afield,) have been men of conspicuous probity, of unquestioned fairness, of more than aver age generosity in their dealings, not only with men of affairs, but with their own employees. The names of several still living will ai once come to your mind. Os them I will not speak. But what of the founders of the two largest dry goods concerns in the United States? H. B. Claflin was essentially a man of the tjpe just described—more so than the public knows, for. like Mr. Borden, his philan thropies were accomplished with a mini mum of noise, even with stealth. Long before old age pensions were discussed as a national question the house of Claf lin instituted its own system, a system to which the beneficiary contributes not one dollar. The worthy son of this worthy sire, John Claflin -the present holder of the blue ribbon of American commerce, the presidencj’ of the Chamber of Com merce -continues the benevolent policy. And then, was not Marshall Field distin guished as much for his honesty and jus tice as for his great wealth? • • • Os course, it is not quite the thing now adays to bother much about people when they die - there is so much to be done in bolding one's own against the living. Still, it may do no harm to steal a few moments to weave a little wreath for a man of sterling worth, whose life and work are a refutaion of some of the cyni cal. mischievous, counterfeit theories that too often are circulated toda.v as 21-earat truths.

HAYWARD & CLARK'S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS. June 4. Liverpool came about 4 points better than due on futures and spots 2 higher; sales 7.000. The strength may be explained by yes terday’s cables saying the market feared a low bureau. Our market opened a few points higher to conform to yesterday's New York and ruled steady around 11.33 for October. Trading was small owing to unusual uncertainty in regard to the government condition publication as 11 o'clock. Sellers arp particularly scarce, as the tendency was to look for a low bureau figure Spot holders say a good export demand developed locally Satur day and still continues and but fnr the poor outlay on factors’ tables a large business w'ould be done The bureau report m 11 o'clock gave 78.9 as the average condition for the belt on May 25. which compares with 87.8 last rear and 82 in 1919 Thisj condition was somewhat higher than expected and led to selling right after the publication, but there seemed to he many buying orders placed for the emergency and prices re covered right away. New' York reported Mitchell. Riordan and Craig the best buyers, showing that bull interests in New York Intend to keep full control of the market The weekly weather report is favorable, ex cept for a part of northwest Texas, cen tral and southwest Oklahoma, where rain is said to be urgently needed.
