THE COTTON CROP. !
Th? Qinn*r? Mtka Thtir RaporU
to the Government,
THE CROP APPEARS TO BE LARGE.
The Depart uicnt of Agriculture
11ms Instituted it New Scheme
for (totting nt the Cotton
Crop Figure*.
The census Viureau tin ttic ootttm
ginned from the 1902 crop up to and
including Dec. 13 last, is l.
bales, irrespective of shape or weight,
equal to 8,1105,503, according to the
commercial counting. This is 90.2
per cent of the crop.
The following is the number ?>f ginneries
reporting in the several States
and territories;
u lined staies, ,io,i:h; Aiaimina,
3,889; Arkansas, 2,510: Florida, 28 1;

Carolina, 2,085; Oklahoma, 218; South
Carolina, 5,187; Tennessee, 815;
Texas, 4,512; Virginia, 100.
Following is the number of hales of
cotton ginned to and including Dec.
13, (growth of 1002:)
United States, 0,311,835: Alabama,
800,004; Arkansas, 708,801; Florida,

Following is the ginners' estimate
as to the (piantity to be ginned from
this crop after Dec. 13:
United States, 1,057,771; Alabama.
05,108; Arkansas, 140,715; Florida,
6,598; Georgia, 00,714; Indian Territory,

Oklahoma, 29,508; South Carolina,
14,764; Tennessee, 34,409; Texas,
188,908; Virginia, 2,491.
Following is the canvassing agents'
estimate of the per cent, of the crop
ginned to Dee. 13:
United States, 90.2; Alabama, 94.2:
Arkansas, 86.1; Florida, 87.9;Georgia.
95.4; Indian Territory, 87.2; Kentucky,
87.3; Louisiana, 83.2; Mississippi,
82.8; Missouri, 94.3; North
Carol ilia, 94.9; Oklahoma, 84.5; South
Carolina, 90.4; Tennessee, 88.8; Texas,
91.7; Virginia, 82.o.
The above statisics of the quantity
of cotton ginned to December 13th are
expressed in bales as pressed at the
ginneries, irrespective of shape or
weight. In the. total of 9,311,835
bales there are 812,001 round hales
averaging from 240 to 300 pounds
each. Counting such round bales as
half hales, as is the custom in the
commercial community, the total
ginned to December l.'Uh is 8,905,503.
The glnners have not yet returned
their bale weights for this crop, but
40 cotton compress companies distributed
throughout the cotton states
advise this olllec that they compressed
and actually weighed from the growth
of 1902 up to December 13th, 1,000,434
bales averaging eacli 503.8 pounds
gross. Using tills weight as the average
for square bales for round bales
253 pounds t tic average obtained from
the weight returns of the home offices
of the companies such patents,
the equivalent number of 500 pound
bales ginned to December 13th is
found to lie 8,974,722. Deducting
the weight of the bagging and ties (22
pounds per square bale) the number
of equivalent 500 pound bales, net
weight , is found to be 8,000,758.
i;y two mosi thorough canvasses
this season 32,528 ginneries, active
and idle, have heen located, reported,
of which number 30,104 have heen
operated for this crop. In their December
canvass the local special agents
ascertained the quantity of cotton
ginned from the beginning of the
season to and Including December 13th
and also secured from each of the active
ginners his estimate of the quantity
of cotton to be ginned by Ids
establishment after December 13.
The estimate of the percentage of the
crop ginned is based on the estimates
of 620 canvassing agents, who were instructed
to con 11 no their estimates to
the territories canvassed by them and
to t he knowledge gained therefrom.
One estimate therefore serves as a
check against the other. According
to the estimate of the ginners 10.2 per
cent, of the crop remained to he
ginned after December 13, while according
to the estimate of the canvassing
agents the percentage' was
9.8. Applying these percentages and
the general average bale weight obtained
round and square bales, the
crop according to the ginners is 9,990,300
bales, and according to the canvassers
9,954,100 bales of an average
gross weight of 500 pounds. The
census office assumes no responsibility
for the accuracy of these estimates.
This report will be followed by a
third and llnal report at the end of
the ginning season, about March 16th,
which will distribute the crop by
counties, segregate upland and sea
island cottons, and give weight of
bale.
IT IS NOT Ot'KSSWOKK.
in giving out the report Director
jvierriam made the following statement:
"It seems important to again state, (
in connection with these statistics of (
the cotton crop of 1U02, that is so far
as they relate to the bales of cotton |
ginned to December, last, they involve
no guesswork at any point, no estimate
by anybody, and no uncertainty
of any kind. They represent t lie ex- '
act number of bales of cot ton that
have passed through the ginneries.
All that has been done by the census
oflice is to make and verify the additions.
Anybody is at liberty to examine
the whole process adopted by <
the census ofllce in handling these returns.
The returns represent the *
ginning operations of every ginning
establishment which lias handled any
portion of the growth "f 1U02.
"The report Is made at a time so v
near the close of the ginning season i
as to permit a very close ap- 1
proximailon of the actual growth
ot tho year, in S00 pound
b&let. It i?cmi probable that the
Anal report, to bo luuod about March
10th next, will not show a variation ',
of 30,000 bales from tho citlmntoa of
tho total crop which uro submitted
from two sources In connection with J
the Agurcs of cotton ginned to Jiec.
13. ;
"This Is the tlrst time In the his
tory of the American cotton crop that
definite and exact knowledge of the
season's growth has Itcen placed in
possession of the public al so early a
date, or within a date live months as
early.
"The census olllce is already per- '
footing plans for more frequent re-' (
ports in connection with I he crop ot ,
1903. Its lirst report will cover all I1
the cotton ginned, ot the years' growth i
up to and including Sept. 1st. This 1
; portion of each year's crop is now as- |,
signed, in the commercial estimates,
to the production of the previous
year as the commercial cotton year
ends Sept. I.
"The second report will include all
cotton ginned up to and including
Oct, 18, 190:i, the date of the tlrst report
for 1902, enabling an exact comparison
in the two seasons. The third
report will cover t he cot ton ginned up
to and including Nov. 18. a period of
the utmost importance to the growers
and manufacturers. The fourth
report will represent t he cot ton ginned
to Deo. 13. The fifth will bo tie'
final report. i
"It will be seen that this plan con- i
templates practically a monthly re- .
port during the cotton ginning sea- |
son of ltm:i. If it shall be found that (
still more, frequent reports tire desir- ;
able, the census ortiec. will be prepared ;
to make them for the crop of 1901. I
"The census met hod of ascertaining
the annual cot.ton crop can be grad \
ually extended and developed, with {
comparatively little increase of ex- \
pense, so tis to include stat istics of the ,
cotton seed oil industry, the acreage i
annually devoted to cotton, and tin i
mill takings and consumption of cot- <
ton, thus making the reports a com- i
plete showing of tho product ion and .
consumption of domestic cotton. I

Now is the time to look back and j
?view the past, as did old Janus, for
hom January was named. He was
lie porter, t he ^ate keeper, of heaven,
nd had two fae.es one to look bark
nd the other forward into the inysteous
future. Numa Pompilius ^avc
im his name and his high oilier, for
i! was next in power to .lupltor. lie
Ided two months to the calendar and
died one January foi Janus and the
her February for the mother of
a i s. Until then t here were but oitfht
out lis of forty-six days each. Numa
Ided two more, which wave them
drty-six days each, and January was
.
tho fourth month and remained so for
more than two thousand years, April
was tho tlrst month and remained so C
I until two hundred years n^o. Why It li
was chunked I cannot understand, for h
A pi 11 is much more like tho beginning fi
of a now year than January. April fi
! comes from apcrlo, to open ?tlio tinio n
when tho earth opens and the ^rass a
comes up and tho dowel's bloom and I
the birds sitiK- hut the names of al- i
j most everything soemtocoinefroiii that ;i
j old myt holoiry.und wo conform to thin u
1 old mythology, and we can't ^et rid <?f n
it. My irrcat-grandfather lived and ii
died under that ?>1? 1 calendar when p
i April was the tlrst month of the year, a
Julius Caesar and Augustus Caesar m
stuck in two more months and made o
the year of twelve months of thirty t.
days cadi, hut April remained in the e
llrst month and ought to he now. v
llut whether Christmas be in December
or in April, we love the old s
superst it ions t iiat cluster around this a
season of joy and gladness. I always d
[thought It a pretty idea for a man to h
i be weighed every Clirist mas or New a
' Year input bis aids and deeds in the f
I lialances, the good on one side and the n
1 i.i 11 cm I he nl.liiT. and lit liini rtsi* In c
heaven or fall below it as the scales o
might turn. This Is not an ort hodox ||
doctrine, for it. is said that one hud ii
deed will outweigh a thousand good s
ones. Nevertheless, Helseha/.ar was h
weighed, and the Scripture Isutnd In h
such figures of speech. It will take I
miracles of grace to save us, anyhow,
and we must ail help one another, for <
the |)e\il is doing his best. David p
committed murder; Solomon worship- t
cd idols; Cain killed his hrothcr; Jacob t
cheated Msau out of his birthright; t
Noah got drunk, and Peter denied his I
Master, but they all repented and got Ii
forgiveness; and if there is any dilTcr- )i
ence between folks now and folks then n
I don't know it. Then let us all love h

pw years later. He bought a good
firm, and with his wlfo lived happily
early fifteen years. Jiy Industry he
cquired a goodly amount of property,
'ateli took a pan of corn at 4 p. in
)ee. 27, IHSj, and started for the
oult ry house to feed his liens. When 1

iiuited all over t lie place for him, but
1 vain. The next day a searching
artv was formed by the neighbors
ad the forests for miles around were J
poured, hut without finding a trace I
f the missing man. After a few days
he search was abandoned. No letter .
ver came nor was any inkling of the
hereabouts ol Patch ever received.
While Mrs. Patch was preparing for
upper last Monday evening there was
| rap at the dixir. She opened the
oor, and an old man with a long gray
caul stepped in. There was noLliing
bout his face or limine that looked
imiliar to Mrs. Patch, and when the
