Somebody will get die money, it does not go back to the The Constitution by am means. Those who solve the problem at the longest range will receive proportionately the highest prizes, a* you notice the figures grow less as the time expires and Irccause the nuuilrer of bales received up to certain dates, as the time advances, can He known exactly, leaving shorter time and probabilities to figure against. In all three of the cases submitted it is distinctly understood that, should more than . one correct or equally conert estimate be filed in the contest, the amount of the prizes so earned will lie divided equally among the correct answers. The prizes are offered in cash. I There is no "missing word" in this, no probability for some one to know absolutely the Icoircrt answer, but this is ! rain versus brain, skill versus skill, pencil versus pencil, figures versus figures. Every man is interested in the cotton crop, the amount of the crop vanrs the price and the price of cotton in our territory is the barometer of the people's | prosperity. jmm11 On Such a Vital Problem You Outfit to Hake Figures.
