ORIENT W FDR
SOUTH SEXPORTS
Government Expert Urges At
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 color 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 puttheir
fir n 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
snould 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
cash in New York before shipment.
Big Field to Develop.
Air. Odell has traveled over 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
cninery.
‘One of the greatest markets lor
America lies today in the Near East,”
says Mr. Odell. "In Turkey and Asia
Minor and the islands of the Arch!-*
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 I have mentioned.. Here in. this
territory from which we annually im
port 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 we 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
this country should have an agent in
Constantinople, Saloniki and Smyrna.
No one agent can handle all 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 of
a million inhabitants, it is today with
out telephones, street cars and even
electric lights, except in a few hotels. .
Must Be £heap 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. \Ve would find that it would
pay us to manufacture for their espe
cial use.."
M . Odell 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 of
the total, in the export of spindles this
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.

gressiveness prices rallied a lew 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 points
higher, but opened steady Bpoints up.

J. A. Kennedy wires following letter
from Cleburne. Tex., Sept. 8: "Since I '
made jny last report. 1 have been travel- !
ing in south central Texas, and Will re- I
iterate my last report regarding the eon- j
dltion of all this territory, as it is very 1
dry and the crop shows constant deterio- i
ration, both as a result of the drouth and
the leaf worms: the latter are now work- I
ing as high as this city and above Dallas, '
toward the Red river, and will 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
the extreme northern part of the state,
but 1 think the leaf worm w'H 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
4s 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 i
all that now lies on the ground. 1 have I
made personal inspection of many 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 that the crop is
going short and has been overestimated.
“I think that 4,000.060 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, and if the
leaf worm invades southern Oklahoma by
October 10 they will cut the crop mate
rially also, as well as in Texas, for the
crop is very late in that state.”

with near months easy and late months

census report on cotton. Near months
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
store which involves carrying charges.
