By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, August 7.—The cot- ton market was very quiet again early today, the trade apparently waiting for tomorrow’s Government crop re- port. The opening was steady at un- changed prices to an advance of 5 points, with prices fluctuating between 24.20 and 24.25 for December con- tracts during the first hour. Small offerings induced by private reports of rain at a few points in northern and northwest Texas were absorbed, and covering by recent sell- ers gave the market a fairly steady undertone. Another private report estimated the [ 4 18,407,959 bales of the 19 Pextremely 25 COTTON P SHONSPEAK ELD 14,698,356 Bales Practically| All Taken, New Orleans Ex- change Secretary Reports. By the Associated Press. NEW ORLEANS, August 7.—Home eonsumption and foreign demand has left little of the 192425 commercial cotton crop in the Southern States, H. G. Hester, secretary of the New Or leans Cotton Exchange, declares in his annual cotton report. The increase of crop over the previous year has been practically |cleaned up by the increased demand from foreign spinners. Mr. Hester's report puts the total of the commerclal crop for this vear at 14,698,356 bale: over the previous year of 3,407.959 over that of 1 3 of 3.415,550. The vear's increase, 64.4, was in the “other Gulf States,” princ sissippi. Arkansas About 25 per cent In Tex cent in the Atlantic St ures in round numbers over last year, 837 fll)a tes over last yvear, 9.1 Atlantic States over last year. 376,000 The average grade of the crop was middling; that the range was from strict low middling to strict middling, and the Atlantic States averaging strict low middling. There were no high or extremely low grad nd though the staple was poos general rule the crop was clean and well handled He says the size of the crop was no Impediment to its marketing, and by the end of the first six months more than 80 per cent, or over 11,750 000 bales, had come into sight of swhich £.500.000 bales had been exported and gone into consumption; that while our home mills were not so rabid for sup- plies. foreign consumers came into the market early and continued their tak ings on a liberal scale until the end. Col. Hester says the result was a cleanup of all that we had to dispose of. and between home consumption and foreign demand the excess of nearly 3,500.000 had disappeared, leav ing little or none of the vear's produc tion In the cotton States. The increase in the carrvover in the United States and FEurope amounted to about 561,000 bales. In fact, Col. Hester states, after years of scant supplies all it could get of American cotton. All in all, he says. the year has been most prosperous for cotton producers Above all. he states, is the crown. ing fact that the South is resuming her position as the great arbiter of the world's cotton supply Weather greatly assisted pressing the ravages of weevil, but no little credit The fig are: Texas other Gulf 000, and in sup the boll is due to the individual efforts of the farmers | in fighting the pest, and the campaign of education of the past several years has been fraught with results that Justify anticipations of future success in combating the weevil. Biggest Year Since 1914. Col. Hester says of the eight and a quarter million bales, including Can ada, exported foreign during the past season. which amount not been equaled since 191415, Great Britain increased her takings by upward of 830,000 bales, and we sent to Germany. in round figures, 1.885.000. against 1 300,000 last year and 934,000 year be fore last. 5 America exported to France and other continental countries liberal in creases, while Japan and China took from us 923,000 bales. against 574,000 He states of the 14,247,000 bal sumed during the past vear, 7 were used by foreign mills fore since 1915.16, Col. Hester says. has consumption of American cotton abroad passed the seven-million mark, | and that when it is remembered that monthly consumption has been on an | ascending scale, it may be figured out that if the present rate is continued it will require a larger crop than that of the past year to supply the world’s spindles. Col. Hester puts the average price of middling. which was the average of the crop, at 24.27 cents a pound, compared with 3167 cents last year, 24.06_vear before last, and 17.78 in 1921-22. The average commercial value per bale of lint cotton he puts at $124.06, against $158.80 last v The value of the crop. including the seed. $1,980.- 530 against $1.895.143,040 last year.

By the Associated Press. Seventy million dozen eggs. the Ag riculture Department reports, were sold through co-operative marketing associations last year for approxi mately $22,000,000. Although the business was conduct- ed through 183 organizations, the re- view stated, 90 per cent was done by 31 of the associgtions, which were of the “truly co-operative type." Coloperative marketing of eggs and was shown to have made rapid strides during the last 15 vears. A survey in 1924 showed 31 poultry and egg marketing associations in producing reglons and four at termi- nal markets. Twenty-two of .them handled both eggs and poultry. Eight handled only eggs and one only poul try Missouri led in numbers, with nine associations, Minnesota second with six, California third with four and | Texas fourth with three.
