BEER'S COTTON LETTER New Orleans, La.?Trading: Wfes restricted today owing to the uncertainties Attending the Government report on acreage and condition of the growing crop, due July 2nd, and because of business being suspended next Saturday and Monday July 4th holidays. Today's weekly weather and crop government review was favorable,' the best issued so far this year, sat-1 isfactory to excellent progress of| crop report. Nevertheless the market ruled comparatively steady, denoting nervousness of shorts owing' uncertainties attending issuance of tlie Bu-, ieau report next Friday. In connection with the average production of the past ten years of 12,-J 734,000 bales without linters, we would call attention to the fact that' 1 p?al ^ i ocs all field work, including cultivating, ^ irvesting and belt work . .i ne man completely operates both 'tractor j id all implements : single seat in the center of all controls of actor and implement i i ? . single unit of operation?tno tractor ana nplements form but operator sees all ;.;ht is s?tter than hind, iii;.. ractive power in front of th; .ork with perator behind the work i if iced for Price ~~ 4*1^' * ~ " I i torse drawn Universal I tors. tACTOR CO 1 the average production for the past five years or since the war started j cause of a reduction in acreage so( much but principally on account of ( weevils having spread over the belt meanwhile and owing to the ebsence! of German potash,' much of which was used in making the big crops prior to the war. Up to 1914 the wee-j vils had worked eastward only as far as Western half of Alabama, now| they extend to the Atlantic Coast and v/6rked 'somewhat further northward until today they cover almost.the en-' tire belt. If the bureau is a shade under 70 it will be the lowest July crop condi-| tion on record and while there is the possibility of a slight change in the acreage compared with last year a little more or less chances are likely! to oe againsv me making oi a lair yield, much less a large crop unless weather during remainder of season exceptionally good and weevils .'are not destructive. The crop is still very late and wee-' vils have ippfeared early and .are numerous in many localities of the belt. In this there is the greatest danger for the crop as in' event of showery weather they would likely , multiply and become destructive.. H. & B. Beer.

AMERICAN LEGION MEN HOLD DOWN RACE CLASH , -Miami, July 1.?Quiet reigns in j the aegro section today following a j riot last night after dynamite 4 bombs were thrown into a negro l dwelling close to, the color line. Three hundred members of the American Leeion. called out bv the mayor, patrolled the streets last night, and there were no casualties.
