The enormous de- pwtnd for spot cotton by the mills of the world will absorb every bale of American cotton produced this year before another crop can be harvested. There is not now as much cotton the Soiitn to gather and gin as was the case one year ago. hence the present crop will never reach 12,000,000 bales. If we should gin as much cotton in the South to gather and as we did from the big crop of 100-1, the total cron would not exceed 12,200,000 bales. Every one acquainted with the situation knows that there is no late cotton, as was the case in 1904, as the top crop this year was killed by an unusually early frost. Grant ing that only 85 per cent of the crop was ginned to Deo. 1 the total vleld would not exceed 11,700,000 ' hales. The bureau has over estimated the yte’d this year as badly as it under estimated tiie crop a year ago The neople are urged to hold their cotton flrmlv for good prices’and the spot market can bv» fully maintained for the balance of Hie season.” The only form of food made from wheat that is all nutri ment is the soda cracker, and yet—the only soda cracker of which this is really true is Uneeda Biscuit The only soda cracker scientifically baked. soda cracker effectually protected. soda cracker ever fresh, crisp and clean, soda cracker good at all times.
