Cotton is opening very rapidly b it
Is not going to be as good as It was
thought to be some days ago, but on
an average corn Is a lot better than it
was thought It was going to be. So
much the better for the farmers and
it* we can get a good price for our
cotton "although the crop is going to
be short." I think WO would still pull
through with the good feed crop that
is ready to be gathered.
