HISGBADISG CAUSES
HEAVY LOSSES IS COTTO-N
Cltmson College, S. C., Dec. 8.?
In a report to the Secretary of Agri
culture, made public recently, the
Office of Market and Rural Organi
sation stated that the losses to cot
ton growers in the United Statea
probably reached $7,500,000 in
1913-1914 because grades were not
properly taken into account in the
primary sales, and that in spite of
a tendency toward improved condi
tions since the promulgation of the
official cotton standards of tnfe
United tSates the losses due to in- !
accurate grading are still great. J
The growers are urged to familiar
ize themselves with grades and to
