year This year the increase will be much less than
fifty per cent but will put it down at one hundred

hundred and fifty thousand bales calculating about the
increase from ls45 to Is46 from 1914 to s45 and
the consumption in ls46 will fall much short Of seven
hundred and fifty thousand bales. The consumption put
down for Great Britain is without doubt much less than
the amount that will be actually used but leave
the quantity stated to reduce any estimate made
others The crop about all in will be full twenty

Texas This supply with the stock hand the close

about thirty -four hundred thousand bales out of which
the consumption will take about two millions seven hun.

of September 1885, of seven hundred thousand bales
with which crop of twenty -four hundred thousand
bales will be required to supply the demand for consump
tion without having single bale of stock hand at the
close of the year.
