ORIENT MART FOR
SOUTH SEXPORTS
Government Expert Urges Atr
lanta Manufacturers to In
vade the Near East.
•
R. M. Odell, 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 coloi at the ends and
on the- selvedge 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.
1 act ought to be shown in handling
the foreign buyer. Tact coming from a
thorough knowledge of the require
ments ano conditions or his trade
saould be cultivated by the American
firms.
Goods should be shipped C. O. D. and
a belter line of credit extended to rep
utable dealers, instead of the present
method of Americans in demanding
cash in New York before shipment.
Big Field to Develop.
Mr. Odell has traveled offer .Europe
and Asia in the past few years, making
a study of trade conditions with spe
cial 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 chance for American
firms to carry on a business that would
be simply amazing.
“They don't get it for some of the
reasons 1 have mentioned. Here in this
territory from which we annually im
port more than five times as much as
we seil them, there is a field for the
sale of machinery, hardware, building
supplies and textile supplies, that is
growing every day and that we need io
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
this country should have an agent in
Constantinople, Saloniki and Smyrna.
No one agent can handle al! this terri
tory, no matter how much he may
claim to be able to do so.
"Constantinople alone offers a great
field for American exporters, a city ot
a million inhabitants, it is today with
out telephones, street cars and even
electric lights, except in a few hotels.
Must Be Cheap Goods.
"To return to the cotton trade, we
ought to manufacture especially for
these people, make a cheap grade of
stuff which they use and change our
patterns to suit their needs. They like
cotton goods with a gaudy border, for
instance, or with bright colored stripes
on the selvedge edge.
“At present we send them some of
our surplus and that's all. This goods
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."
Mr. Odeli was asked a number of
questions by interested Atlanta men
who sought to know more of trade con
ditions in the Orient.
The United States stands first in ex
porting raw cotton, with 66 per cent o!
the total, in the export of spindies tiiis
counry 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.

steady Spots show an increased demand.
During the late forenoon the market
was under realizing pressure and very
nervous. At the slightest sign of ag
gressiveness prices rallied a ie<» points
However, the offerings were in excess of
the demand and prices receded back with
in 2 points of the previous close. Many
telegrams were In circulation and were
considered as bullish and bearish.
The buying seemed to come from spot
interests, while the selling was being done
by commission bouses and the Waldorf
crowd. During the afternoon session the
market was rather quiet and displayed
a sagging tendency around Saturday’s
close.
Liverpool cables were due 7 to 10 paints
higher, but opened steady 8% points up.
At 12:15 p. m. the market was barely
steady, 5 to 5V4 points higher. Spot cot

HAYWARD & CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
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 extended 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 New 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, I hwve 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 river, and vVill be there
on time—at least, by the time I predicted
to you in my former reports.
"The drouth now exists over the en
tire state, and the plant has about ceased
to put on forms in any portion except,
ihe extreme northern part of the state,
but T think the leaf worm xx’ll clean off
all the young 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 constant dread of
rainfall and high winds, which would
prove very 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
made personal inspection of many fields
this wee I ’, 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 shews conclusively that the crop is
going short and has been overestimated.
"I think that 4.6-00.000 bales is the max
imum crop that can possibly be produced
this season, and if this drouth continues
ten days longer, you may just as well ac
cept these figures as the maximum, and
condition may arise that will reduce them
materially. I learn that western Okla
homa is very dry, and the crop is de
teriorating there very rapidly, anil if the
leaf worm invades southern Oklahoma by
October 1.0 they will cut the crop mate
rially also, as well as in Texas, for the
crop is very late in that state."

got & Co.: Cotton seed oil was inactive
with near months easy and late months

census report on cotton. Near months
continue to show good premiums, but the
situation is considered unnsitural especial
ly as refiners are said to be delivering to
speculatoi's who are placing the oil in
store which involves carrying charges.
