COTTON. 1 An upheaval in cotton prices is predicted by W. B. Thompson, the New Orleans cotton expert. Those who have been so busy chanting cotton's dirge that they have not pro- < tected themselves against the inevitable resurrection are going to have t? pay a heavy penalty for their ne- | O^iect, according to the New Orleans i \n's way of thinking. He declares the "cotton situation \ intrinsic.'ny is by no means as bad as current gloomy imagination paints ( it, because me Duruen 01 present oversupply and prospective carry-1 over is not nearly so heavy as current estimates indicate." The prot duction outlook, he thinks, in so far as the new crop is concerned, is infinitely more menacing to the consumers than is the present over-supi. ply situation to producers. The demand for cotton is not dead, as it appears to be, but is held in cumulative abeyance, to be started into hungry activity as soon as the supply situation develops a stringency that ^he says is inevitable. ' "Nothing can prevent materially higher prices ultimately, and nothing but the acquired liubit of fear and panic-bred competition between spot holders to undersell each other can prevent materially higher prices in the near future." He cites calculations to show that the probable carry-over of the world July 1, 1921, will be 6,124,000 bales, instead of 12,457,740 bales, as originally predicted by the United States bureau of markets. He puts the maximum j 1921 crop at 8,000,000 bales. These figures, together with others he cites he says will put prices to high levels and that the "supply situation for the next 12 months holds more of menace to the consumer than the demand situation now holds for the producer." The present apathetic state of de\ inand Mr. Thompson attributes to two direct causes, first the inability of certain Nations to buy at all; and second, the disposition of all Nations not to buy under present conditions.?Charlotte Observer. o Wins in Marksmanship.

His body was discovered by a workman from a saw mill near by, who had gone to Mr. Carter's home to purchase some syrup.
