Clothea of Quality Or, Price To AIL Facts That Prove That a Decreased Produc tion of Cotton is De sirable at All Times and Particularly This Season , J The average production of cotton for the .world is approximately 22,000,000 bales. Of this the United States produces two-thirds. Relatively the Southern cot ton planter is most affected by the supply of cotton in the markets of the world. J The 1918 crop of cotton in the United States was approximately 11 ,700,000 bales.' The United States consumes 6,600,000 balesTleaving a surplus of 5,100,000 .bales for export. - l Other cotton countries report a surplus, of 3,180,000 bales, so that at present there is a world surplus of about 8,280,000 bales of cotton. J Total exports from the United States for 1918 crop, up -to the present time, are approximately 2.OQ0.000 bales, and even if exports should increase rapidly, which is not indicated at the present time, there will still be more than 3,000,000 bales to carry over to the 1919 crop. With a large acreage during the coming sea son the world will be. swamped under an excessive oversupply of cotton. '. J Thirty-seven rriillion acres were planted in cotton in the United States in 1918 and a poor season cut the crop fully 2,000,000 bales. Two-thirds of last year' acreage planted to cotton, with a favorable season, and properly cultivated, will 'approximate last year's crop. The same acreage will probably bring the South a crop that will mean distress and bankruptcy. That a small crop brings more net money than a large one is shown in the f olliwong table : Value of Qot Average Average Year ton Crop, lint.
