COTTON SUPPLY
OF WORLD STILL
NEAR HIGH PEAK
More Than Twice World
Consumption During
1931-32
With the December estimate of the
domestic crop larger than forecasts
made early in the season, the estimat
ed world supply of American cotton
for 1932-33 is now only slightly less
than the record supply of 1931-32 and
is more thin twice the world consump
tion of American cotton during 1931-
32. Reports received on foreign pro
duction prospects up to mid-January
indicate that 1932-33 production out
side the United States will be about
900,000 bales larger than in 1931-32,
but wHI be the smallest, with the ex- 1
ception of last season, since 1927-28.
The total supply of foreign cotton in
1932-33 will apparently be about the
same as the preceding year owing to
the de:rease in the carry-over of these
cottons.
Domestic mill consumption from
September to December, 1932, was ma- !
teriallv above the like period of 1931 \
and 1930, and averaged about 75 per |
cent above the low point of July, 1932. j
Despite the high rate of production, I
textile stocks at the end of 1932 were
much lower than at the end of any
of the previous five years. The tex
tile situation in Europe also improved
during the fall and early winter, and |
in Japan activity continued at high lev- ,
els with record quantities of Ameri
can cotton being used. The estimat
ed world consumption of American
cotton, during the-first four months |
of the season was 11 per cent above |
the corresponding period of 1931-32 j
and 26 per cent above the period Aug
ust to December, 1930-31.
Prices of American cotton during ■
1932-33 remained fairly stable from j
mid-October to late January, and al- j
though substantially below the level |
reached in late August, they were, atj
the end of January, about a cent and
a quarter above the low point of June,
1932, and about the same as a year
earlier. Prices of Indian relative to J
American were still very favorable to

NEGRO LEADS IN
LIVING AT HOME
Subsistence Farming Being
Practiced by Colored
Man in Vance
It was a lucky day for Pil Reed, a
negro farmer in Vance County, when
a local nurseryman decided a few
years ago to quit the business and sell
out his left-over sto:k for a few dol
lars. '
, Reed and his wtfc bought SO peach
I trees, 50 apple trees, 6 pear trees, 6
, grape vines, 2 pecan trees and 2 Eng
. lish walnut trees for $54. The pecan
trees died and the English walnuts
• have not done so well, -but the other
trees are living and- have been bear
ing fruit for about three years. As
a result, says Mrs. Hattie F. Plum
i mer, Vance County home agent, Reeds
wftfe this* past summer canned 303 j
quarts of fruits and vegetables, made
14 gallons of preserves and jelly and]
saved two bushels of dried apples and
one bushel of dried peaches.
; The Tamily could not find much of a
I sale for fruit, byt the wife gave away;
J considerable apples and about 30 bush |
' els of peaches to neighbors. She also
j sold $7 worth of fruit and $35 worth
jof surplus vegetables. She would have
j canned more, but had filled up all the
| cans she could get. They have 50
! hens, 11 guineas, 5 hogs, 2 cows, and
i 2 "banks" of They have
plenty of corn and saved for
] winter.
I "We baa a dry season all over
: Vance County last year," says Mrs.
j I'lummer, "but most of.our folks kept
on planting and kept on saving what
they had grown. This negro family
t ,'s just one example of what a family
in very humble circumstances was able
to do and we have other examples
equally as good. Those, of our peo-j
pie who grew what they could and
saved all the .food and feed possible
are in a favorable condition so far as
living is concerned."
