C Conunlssloner of Iabor and Print ing Bhlpman haa completed chapter two of his annual report, which will appear about the first of the year. This chapter deals with farming con ditions whlrt at whole if con sldwsd satlafaetory, especially so as to cotton. The report follows: "Taken as a whole, farming con ditions in the State may be aald to be In a very satlafaetory condition As was pointed out In our last report, the 'Buy-a-Balo-of -Cotton Movement' did not result In an advance In the market prloa, and a large proportion of the farmer auffered from the low price, The affect of the low price waa felt in all Unas of bualnesa In the South, and to some extent in the North. The outtlng oft of exports contributed largely to the decrees In pi-toe, but In the face of the large crop grown It la doubtful If the prices prevailing for the Kit crop could have been sustained, even If the ex port trade ha4 not been affected by tb war. The crop far this year bid fair to be muoh less than last year, due, It Is hoped, to the fact that pro ducers are beglnntng to realise that a large crop means low prices, and that there are other crops which may b grown allowing as good profit as cotton. Cotton Is no longer the only farm product which can be read ily turned Into oesh ior several years past any article of agricultural pro duce the farmer may have had has been marketable. Immediately and for cash. "There la continued advance In stack and poultts breeding, aa well aa ad vance In dairying methods. Btimenary. "Reports show an Increase In the value of land In IT counties, slight decrease In J, and no change In 17. fertility of the land la reported main tain In 2 counties. Twelve counties report a tendency to have larger farms; IT smaller; one no change. Seventy-seven counties report labor scarce; 21 plentiful: Thirty-one coun tlea report employment regular; II Irregular. "Average wages paid: Higheat average paid men, 110 per day: low est. 61 cents per dsy. Highest aver age paid women, (7 cents per day; lowest, 44 cents per day. Average wages of children, ST cents per day " LOVING CUP PRESENTED CHIEF MARSHAL EVERETT As a Closing Featura of the State Fair ball.
