Cotton traders who maintain that the high prices ure justifiable do so on ac­ count of the smallness of the crop. This Is attributed in general to the cot- tou boll weevil. The loss in Texas cotton through this Insect Is placed by latest estimates at 800,000 bales. De­ terioration lu the cotton se<*d is an­ other factor claimed in the short crop, and some of the agricultural authori­ ties are inclined to see truth in this claim, believing that the low price of cotton had made many planters indif­ ferent In the selection of seed, ihe best of which went to the oil makers.

(See the first cut.) With such an arrangement of brandies the tree when old is less liable to injury from heavy snow’s or severe winds.
