Southern Cotton Is
Beginning to Move
By Wales W. Thomas
Atlanta, Oa.. Sept. 8. Cotton has just be
gun to move in volume in the Southeastern
states and this has stimulated every line of
commercial activity throughout the section.
The prudence of planters in discounting by
economies the ravages of the boll .weevil on the
cotton crop probably is justified in a rather
unexpected volume of retail trade.
The aatisfactory liquidation of new and old
debts by the farmer and the restoration of his
ability to make cash purchases is having a
sumulatins effect in every section.
The largest wholesale dry goods firm here
stated todsy that the volume of its business
for the last week was the greatest in the history
of the company.

Improvement in the foreign and domestic
wheat trade during the early Friday activi
ties was confined mostly to the territory east
of the Rockies, although some betterment was
reflected in the Pacific Northwest situation.
Foreign markets, were firmer and some
what higher with spot and futures paruci
patiftg while- Chicago showed a ' degree of
strength early with some advance in the
future trade. i
Europe continues to make purchases of
wheat at Atlantic and Gulf ports, but no late
trade is confirmed here. Purchases are re
ported at the Gulf aronnd $1 pe cental, f.
o. b.. which compares with Sl.OSOl.lO re
cently paid for elub wheat to Pacific North
west growers for tidewater delivery. Natu
rally Europe is not keen to pay . the higher
price demanded here, and this has 'resulted in
a lack of new activity for foreign 'account in
this territory. (
While quite fair volume of wheat market
trade has been shown st Pacific, Northwest
primary - points during the last day or so,
business has been confined, almostj exclusively
to the club variety to fill orders from Europe
received some weeks ago. In fact, exporters
here delayed .their purchases so long that their
ships hsve been forced to await cargo at
heavy expense. This is the reason! why prices
on the coast have been at the premium over
the Atlantic and Gulf ports. j
Flour market continues extreioely quiet
Export .business is nil so fsr as neit orders are
concerned. Activity In shipping 3s confined
to old business, although there Is consider
able of this being moved. Domestic flour
trade is slow, with indications of farther cut
ting in pstent unless whest market does bet
ter. This sppliea principally to new crop, as
old patent is not plentiful. '
Broom hall cable from Argentine': Weather
clear and cool, which is considered s favorable.
-The outlook fo the new crop, of wheat is
regarded a satisfactory. There has been a
faiar moremen. oT corn from tlie interior end
port stocks have increased about 750,000
bushels on the week snd now aggregate about
2,000.000 bushels. i.

GAINS SHOWK IJT FIK8T
COTTOJT GIXSIXG BE POUT
New Tork, Sept 6. rTae first ginning re
port of the season tods showed ginning of
817,171 bales prior to September 1 this year,
compared with 43,787 las year, 381,589 in
1920 and 142.625 in 1619, and 1.086,078
ia 1918. The percentages of the total crop
ginned to September 1 during the past tour
years have ranged from 1.8 in 1916 to 8.7 in
1918. ' In view of this record, the ginning re
ported this season does not necessarily con
tradict the end-Angust crop indication of 10.
573 bales. On the contrary, the trade was
more inclined to consider it an indication of
premature opening, which Would mean a khort
yield.
At the same time the figure certainly
showed that the crop was rapidly becoming
available and people Who have been inclined
to sell cotton on the expected weight of early
receipts, probably found eem encouragement
in tlie figures, not only a indicating heavy
receipts but a aatisfactory price. Both these
views were reflected in the action of the mar
ket, which first broke under liquidation an
then rallied on covering and trade baying.
The market 6phed steady at a decline of
5 to 6 point in response to easier Liverpool
cables, rallied several points before the eenmia
report was issrted and brake ta $20.65 fsr De
cember, or about 25 to 36 point net lower.
This decline seemed to bring in considerable
buying and DececBber soon rallied to $21.84.
or 24 points above yesterday' closing quota
tions. ...
Recovery con tinned in the cotton market
today, partly aa a further rebound aa the
severe decline of the previous week and partly
because' of the generally balUsb interpretation
placed en the census bureaa figure. The rally
was well maintained during the afternoon, the
market leaving off near to the top and tap
86 to 61 fewine on the nay.
