Prospective Production Estimated at
10,986,000 Bales.
A cotton crop about 1,000,000 bales
smaller than last year's was fore
cast for this year by the Department
of Agriculture Tuesday in estimat
ing prospective production at 10,986,
000 bales.
Acreage this year shows a cut ot
8.7 per cent from, last year's, the de
crease being 3,247,000 acres and the
total 33,960,000. The agitation for a
reduction in acreage which the De
partment of Agriculture says occur
red in every cotton-growing State,
the scarcity and high price of labor,
and unfavorable planting weather
caused the heavy decrease.

25 by States, follows;
Virginia 38,000 acres and condi
tion. 82.
Noth Carolina 1,454,000 and 83.
South Carolina 2,706,000 and 78.
