The mean farm price is 7.50 cents, a gain of 05 per cent on last year's figures. 4.0 cents, and 0 per o-.nt- on 1893's figures. Returns from correspondents arc almost uniformly unfavorable as to! (piantity, the weather having proved j generally disastrous. J f i The drought caused an unusually early marketing throughout the cot ! ton area, with an almost total cacrifteeol top crop. The lint however is generally clean, so that the <pial ity is exceptionally high. Many re ports show the crop completely gathered and marketed. PHOTOGRAPHS!!
