■ Government Expert Urges At-
lanta Manufacturers to In
vade the Near East.
/
R. M. <»dell. special agent of the de
partment of commerce and labor, gave
these cotton hints to a score of mer
chants in the Chamber of Commerce
today:
A cheaper class of cotton goods with
a gaudy strip of color at the ends and
on thi seivedge edge ought to be made
by American firms to appeal to the
women of the Orient.
American exporters ought to put their
firm names on their goods in the native
language of the purchaser.
They ought to use the same up-to
date methods in going after trade
abroad they use at home.
Tact ought to be shown in handling
the foreign buyer. Tact coming from a
thorough knowledge of the require
ments ano condition* or his trade
should be cultivated by the American
firms.
Goods should be shipped C. O. D. and
a better line of credit extended to rep
utable dealers, instead of the present
method of Americans in demanding
ca>h in New York before shipment.
Big Field to Develop.
-Mr. Odell has traveled over Europe
and Asia in the past few years, making
, a study of trade conditions with spe
j via! reference to the trade in cotton
goods and cotton products and ma
. chinery.
"One of the greatest markets for
America lies today in the Near East.”
; says Mr. Odell. “In Turkey and Asia
-Minor and the islands of the Archi
pelago there is a cnaitce for American
firms to carry on a business that would
' be simply amazing.
' "They don't get it for some of the
[ icasons I have mentioned. Here in this
i territory from which we annually im-
J poi t more than five times as much as
we sell them, there is a field for the
■ sale of machinery, hardware, building
supplies and textile supplies, that is
growing every day and that yve need 'o
■ get into if we want to enlarge our ex
port trade and keep abreast of the na
tions of Europe.
An American firm seeking trade in
' tills country should have an agent in
, Constantinople, Saloniki and Smyrna.
No one agent can handle all this terri
' tory. no mattei how much he may
, claim to be able to do so.
"Constantinople alone offers a great
field for American exporters. A city of
i a million inhabitants, it is today with
| out telephones, street cars and even
je ectric lights, except in a fen hotels.
Must Be Cheap Goods.
, "To return to the cotton trade, we
ought to manufacture especially tor’
' these people* make a cheap grade- of
i stuff which they use and change our
patterns to suit their needs. They like
i cotton goods with a gaudy border, for
i instance, or with bright colored snipes
[ on the selvedge edge.
i "At present we send them some of
our surplus and that's all. 't his goods
i is not fitted for their requirements and
they won't buy it in any appreciable
quantities. We would find that it would
' pay us to manufacture for their espe
; cial use."
, AL. Odell was_ asked a number of
questions by interested Atlanta.men
who sought to knofr more of Irade con-
i ditions in the Orient.
The United States stands first in ex-
i porting raw cotton, with 66 per cent of
the total. In.the export of spindles this
county is second, with 22 per cent. It
is in the exportation of manufactured
, cotton goods that America ranks so
low. She is in seventh place and an
nually exports only three and a quarter
. per cent of the total export of the world.

NEW ORLEANS. Sept. 9.—Liverpool
came in poor with futures about 5 points
lower than due. but seemed to receive
support from New York in the last hour,
as futures at our opening showed an ad
vance of 14 English points: spots 8 points
higher. The weather map shows favor
able conditions. Normal temperatures
with the exception of north Louisiana
and Mississippi, where, in certain dis
tricts there is an excess. Cloudiness pre
vails in west Texas and the Atlantics and
there were further well extendo<l showers
in the Atlantics over Sunday, indications
point to increasing cloudiness and cooler
weather with showers for north Texas,
Oklahoma and Arkansas. Generally fair
in the central belt, partly cloudy with
local showers in the Atlantics. Washing
ton says In its long range forecast that
there are at present no indications of
any disturbance in the West Indies.
Government detailed records show gen
eral rains and lower temperatures in the
Atlantics during the past five days. The
census report published at 9 o’clock was
a surprise as it was larger than expected.
Our market opened 6 to 10 points high
er, following the strong opening of De
cember in Now York, but the large cen
sus report and favorable weather fore
casts caused easiness.

J. A. Kennedy wires following letter
from Cleburne, Tex., Sept. 8: “Since I '
made my last report, 1 have been travel- !
ing in south central Texas, and will re
iterate my last report regarding the con
dition of all this territory, as it Is very
dry and the crop shows constant deterio- !
ration, both as a result of the drouth and
the leaf worms: the latter are now work- '
ing as high as this city and above Dallas, ■
toward the Red liver, and will be there 1
>n time—at least, by the time I predicted
j to you in my former reports.
“The drouth now exists over the on- i
i tire state, and the plant has about ceased |
to put on forms’in any portion except’
the extreme northern part of the state. ;
I but I think the leaf worm w 4 ll clean off
all the .'<ning forms that are now taking
on. and it is my opinion that the Texas
crop has made about all that it will
produce this year. The* temperature re
mains abnormally high, but so far there
is no indication of any equinoctial dis
turbance, and we pass through this pe
riod without any material damage, but
the farmers are all in constani dread of
rainfall and high winds, which would
| prove veiy ,disastrous as the fields are
practically white and cotton still falling
out on the ground, and a rain would ruin •
all that now lies on the ground, i have I
made personal inspection of man.' fields |
this week, and find in localities that 90 |
per cent is open, and one gathering will
nearly clean up the crop. This is an
unusual condition so early in the season,
and shows conclusively tha’ the crop is
going short and has been overestimated.
”1 think that 4.000.000 bales is the max
imum crop that can possibly be produced
this season, and if this drouth continues
ten days longer, you ma> just as 'cell ac
cept these figures as the maximum, and
condition may arise that w’ill reduce them
materially. I learn that western Okla
homa is very dry, and the crop is de
teriorating there very rapidly, and if the
leaf worm invades southern Oklahoma b\
October 10 they will cut ’he crop mate
rially also, as well as in Texas, for the
cron is very late in that state."

continue to show good premiums, but the
situation is considered unnatural especial
ly as refiners are said to be delivering to
speculators who are placing the oil In
