Colton Planters Should Not Market Their Crop Too Rapidly. If cotton growers accept the advice of Hon. Hector D, Lane, Commissioner of Agriculture of Alabama and President of the American Cotton Growers’ Pro tective Association, says the Augusta Chronicle, they will stand an excellent chance of getting 8 cents for middling cotton this year. Mr. Lane arrived at Galveston a few days ago from a trip through the cotton growing sections of Texas, and he asserts, without fear of contradiction, that the Texas crop will not exceed 2,000,000 bales. The reasons he gives for this assertion are convinc ing ones. Mr. Lane has also informed himself of the condition of the cotton crop in all the other cotton growing States, and he gives it as his opinion that the entire American cotton crop will not exceed 7,250,000 bales. Mr. Lane’s advice to the cotton grow ers is to hold their cotton until late in the season. He does not expect that all will hold it, or that every cotton grower will hold his entire crop What he means is that cotton tanners should not send their cotton to market as fast as they gather it, but they should so con trol their shipments as to prevent the glutting of the market. The English buyers are going to get the cotton for as low a price as they can. In pursuance of that policy their agents are making predictions of a crop of 8,- 000,000 or 9,000,000 bales. They would predict 10,000,000 bales in all probabili ty if they thought such a prediction would have any influence on the cotton market. It is pretty generally admitted that the crop is going to be a short one. Even if the weather during the next four weeks should be extremely favorable throughout the entire cotton belt the yield would not be greatly increased be yond what it would bo miller averago weather conditions, and there are no good reasons for thinking conditions better than the average will prevail in the whole cotton belt. Let the cotton growers act with good judgment in disposing of their cotton, and the chances are that they will get 8 cents, and perhaps more, for their cot ton. There is no good reason why they should be in a hurry to market their cotton. Most of them have raised abun dant food crops, and therefore they are i in a position to hold on to their money i crop. They should not permit them- j selves to be scared by the reports of the ; English agents that the crop is going to I be a large one. The reports of such men as Mr. Lane are much more reliable than those of bear speculators, whole sole ob ject is to get the cotton at as low a price as poesible._ SEPTEMBER 4TH Will be a Great Day in Tarboro—Three Large Warehouses to be Opened.

No extra charge for engraving, EVIDENCE SUFFICIENT. The Spectator of (of X Y) tables for IS* have appeared, showing the rate of interest earned by the 27 leading life insurance companies They ‘how that the Union Central Life Insurance Co., of Cincinnati, 0.. railo for 1894 is 7.01 per cent, against 5 66 per cent, the highest of any other com pany, and 4.99 per emt, the general aver age This is an extraordinary showing for the Union Cential, being 135 per cent above the ratio of any other company. That is to say, on an equal amount of money invested tbe Union Central earns as much as the best of the other companies and nearly one fourth more Extending the comparison for twenty years, from 1875 to 1894, the average of the Union Central for all that time is 666 against 6 53, the highest of any other com pany, and 5.58 the g* neral average. The Union Central average, per cent of death claims for thirteen years, compared to mean amount of insurance in force, has been 0 65, or 85 cents for each Lundred dol lars insured. The lowest aver ge of any other company has been 0 78 and the high est 2:10. The average of the t wenty four other best companies has been 1.36. The above are the vital points of man agement in a life insurance comp iny, and from the actual records we can grant all any other company claims and still have a margin left in our favor. The results of high interest and low death rates are for the benefit of the in sured. By ’ hese excessive virtues the old Union Central (now with mo e tban sl3, 500,000 assets) has b en for over eight years pa]Hng the full face of their policies to those who insure! with us from 18 to 24 years ago, though ihey paid us but the same premlu a usu ily collected for a pol icy payable o ily at death. We paid over #125,000 iu 1394 to the living holders of these poii ies, so we have thoroughly de monstrated th it you do not have t» ‘ die to win” a cheap life rate policy wi i he Union Centril, though our rivals fir 15 years clalme l it could not be done by iay company.
