' Stands Fair But Crop Late,
j The Lesser-Goldman Cotton
Company Agency of this city,
of which T. J. Gregg is manag
er, has issued the following cot
ton crop bulletin, after receiv
inng reports from all points in
this section:
“Stands are fair. The crop is
about two weeks late. Cultiva
tion is good. Plant is healthy.
No increase in acreage. Some
late planted or re-planted cotton
has not come up to good stands,
due to the lack of moisture. In
the early planting the stands
are generally good. There is
need of rain, especially in the
uplands We are glad to report
better cultivation than is usual
and to this we attribute the
very slight deterioration re

head office writes in their week
ly letter as follows:
“ ‘Missouri has bright pros
pects and 10 to 15 per cent in
crease in acreage. Oklahoma
and East Texas are not as se
riously damaged as reported,
j We think the government report
la very conservative one and
rather a little lower than we
expected Taking it all in all,
with a good season from now
on, and a comparatively late
frost, the entire crop being two
to three weeks late, we think as
large a crop will be made in the
territory above mentioned as
was made last season. Money is
plentiful for commercial pur
poses and happily the danger oi
panics is a thing of the past
due to the passage of the Cur

The extreme heat caused
the Iron Mountain track to buck

of the passenger station, produc
ing such a spread of the rails
that trains would have been de
railed, had the bad track not
been discovered in time to pre
