This is not the case at all, the official stated. Manufacturers in the United States have been im porting cotton of various grades and staples for many years, in cluding especially long and fine staple cotton, such as Egyptian and Peruvian varieties, -and the so-called rough varieties of very short staple cotton can be im ported at times and' sold to ad vantage in competition with the cheaper cotton mill waste or the very low grades of American cot ton. It is safe to say that imports of cotton to this country will con tinue to be confined to very small amounts of special types not commonly produced here, and there fs no ground for believing there is a trend toward increasing our cotton imports, Mr. Hamilton concluded. txx Pruning Pine Trees To Increase Values The bidding will be held open as required bv law, for a oeriod of tblrtv days.

I ’ ? n - ki iA*-dB*• Clemson, July 9.—Pruning the lower branches from young southern pine trees to produce knotless lumber offers a chance to more than double the returns from second growth timber in South Carolina, according tc Forester D. R. Brewster of the Clemson College Extension Service Quoting a report of the South ern Forest Experiment Station of the U. S. Forest Service, Mr. Brewster points out that select grades of southern pine lumber free from knots, have sold in re cent years for about $17.00 more per thousand board feet, than the No. 2 common grade. The chief difference between these two grades is merely the absence or presence of sound knots re sulting from branches. It takes no longer to grow s jlear log than a knotty one. Tlr clear log is not only worth a least twice as much as the knott; log but it wilt .be much scarcei and therefore easier to sell wher it reaches a mature size, state. Mr. Brewster. In dense stands or in stand: containing hardwoods, second 4.owth southern pines usually e their lower side branches .. ly in life, due to shade. This il produce reasonably clea ms by natural pruning in most .es. Sometimes, however, the j>lest growing trees in a stand 3 not sufficiently crowded at c ly ages to accomplish this atural pruning. Mr. Brewster ays that pruning such trees bj/ sand should be a very profitable of spare labor during slack it.riods in other farm work. For doing this pruning work, Mr. Brewster recommends special pruning saws which can be ob tained through any hardware store. He will gladly furnish specific instructions on methods of [ iree pruning. 1. TOTAL LIABILITIES AND CAPITAL $196,763374' t.
