conditions favor its production, and
?almost unlimited supplies may be
grown. It thd farmers' will only be

The manufacturers who use : the
long ?tapl? cotton have the key to the
problem. More general planting of
long staple cottons can dot be au

precautions necessary to maintain'the

is Of little value unless they can-ob

tendency .to buy long staple cotton' at
flat orlces like short Staple cotton dls
Jcourages the farmer from taking- great
.'j of core; On the other hand, it en
courages carelessness and tendencies
that lead to the loss of uniformity of
