Cotton Crop By Counties.
Mr Daniel C Roper of the
census bureau, who is a native
of South Carolina, has prepared
a most interesting bulletin with
reference to the cotton crop of
1899, which is likely to bo
adopted as the permanent method
of collecting and issuing the
annual returnes of the cotton
crop, and which is fully explained
in another article touching
this work of the census bureau.
This is the first report of its
kind in the history of the United
States, and the statistics
were gathered by correspondence
and through the census
enumerators. The bulletin gives
a vast amount of information
relating to the cotton industry,
lud one of the most interesting
tables is that showing the production
of cotton by counties
The figures for this state will
prove especially interesting to

Round bales were packed in ;
lOi^ly nine counties of tho State]
in 1899, the balos averaging
257 pounds. Laurfcns and
Hani well counties packed nearly
two-thirds of the round bales,
which is due to the round bale
ginneries operated by Mr. Hlalock
at Goldville, Laurens
county, and Mr. Mike Brown at
Barnwell.
The average weight of the
square bales was 491 pounds, *
or nearly twice that of the .

The price of seed for the last

Many did not got over 12 cents.
Now the mills ought not to
