It i* related that a crop of Sea
Island cotton crown on Edlsto Is
land, South Carolina, sold tliis year
for 85 cents a pound iji open and
competitive market, wheftas the or
dinary St*a Island staple in the same
market brought leas than 40 cents a
pound. Here is a le?son that the
American farmer will some day

Tbis Kditiro planter, who got '85
tents a pound for his Sea Island cot
ton. had made a study of vegetable
propagation. He was patient like a
spider; he was vigilant like a cat. and
he selected his seeds, choosing- only
the best. There is history for It that

I The completed returns of Oetobor '
Itrftifet lik? ihu -early or preliminary
figures. point to the Importance to
Export trade as a whole of the sbip
I ments. of high-priced cotton. Octo

and *ct>ttotT' * ln*~Oct?hgiy. this year,
j however. the one ^really important
| element was the fairly liberal export
jof cotton at very high prices. In fact,
cotton exports in October broke all
' monthly records of value, though the
<' quantity exported has often been ex
ceeded. The total experts of all
merchandise in October . reached
I $198.^2/1.962. a sum. $26. 740,324. or
j 15,5 per cent, in excess of last year:
, but the increase In cotton exports
j atone was 83O.o92.OS0. or 52-2 per
'cent. 'so that If cotton exports are ex
cepted as actuft! decline in ail other'
export trade is shown of t3.S51.762.
or 3.3 per ceut. Very much, the
I same condition Is shown In the ten
[months' returns. In these, as in the

Jstuffs'! meats, dairy products., animals
(and mlnerarolls. while cotton exports
gained s per cent, and other -exports*
increased 3.4 petrcent. in tbe-casei
of the ten months exports, however,
the net result is a decrease of 3 per
cent, from a year ago. which places
the total for this year below those for
the past three 'years.
