T. j
ing the year's cotton crop at 8,433,000
bales the department of agriculture
today placed this year's acreage at
26,519,000, a reduction of 28.4 per!
cent., or 10,524,000* acres from that;
in cultivation a year ago, and the i
smallest since 1900.
Production of cotton on this esti
mate will be less than in any year;
for more than a quarter of a century.
the previous smaller crop hav-l
ing been that of 1895 when the out-!
put was 7,161,000 bales. This year's!
crop promises to be nearly 5,000,000
bales less than last year's and almost'
8,000,000 bales smaller than the rec-j
ord crop grown in 1914.
The condition of the crop was poor-!
er June 25 than on that date in any
year during the last 20. That is at-j
tributed to an adversely late, we* j
spring, the presence of the boll wee- '
vil and use of one-third less fertilizer ;
" r?
generally tnan tne average iui mc
last four years. The condition of^
69.2 per cent of a normal was an im- (
provement of 3.2 per cent over May
25, but it was almost ten points be-;
low the ten year average for that
date. _
. There was a*considerable abandonment
of planted acreage, especially
east of the Mississippi river, which |
the crop reporting board considered !
in the compilation of its acreage fig- j
TVio pvart. extent of this aban- i
donment was not announced.
The poor condition of the crop is
indicated in the forecast production i
inasmuch as smaller acreages in the j
years from 1896 to 1900, inclusive,!
produced larger crops ftian that fore-J!
cast for this year. The acreage yield
2& forecast at 152.2 pounds per acre.
The preliminary estimate of acre
age and the condition on June 25 byi
states follow: j
Virginia, acreage 28,000, condition
70.
North Carolina, 1,186,000, and 67.
South Carolina,-2,190.000 and 65.
Georgia, 3;600,000 and 64.
Florida, 82,000 and 70.
Alabama, 2,029,000 apd 59.
Mississippi, 2,325,000 and 67.
Louisiana, 1,011,000 and 64.
Texas, 9,199,000 and 72. ,
Arkansas, 2,138,000 and 78.

RICHARD WALTON TULLY
BECOMES PICTURE PRODUCER
Richard Walton Tully, famed a? a
dramatist and theatrical producer, is
about to seek fresh laurels, having
just announced his entraice in the
field of motion picture production.'
As Tully has never previously permitted
any of his plays to bo filmed,
he has a great wealth of material at
hand for screening, and has already!
completed arrangements with Asso-I
ciated First National for the filming t
o? two of his-most important suc-j
cesses, "Omar, the Tentmaker," and'
"The * Masquerader." All productions
bearing the Tully stamp will be
personally supervised in every detail
hv the Droducer himself, and it is
V7"
freely predicted that Tully's inventive1
genius and artistic perceptions, which !
have been responsible for many seen-!
ic and illustrative innovations on the
legitimate stage, will find picturization
an equally fertile ground, with
many unique and happy conceits and,1
effects the logical outcome.
In both pictures, "Omar, the Tentmaker"
and "The Masquerader," Guy'
Bates Post will enact the same roles
which he created upon the legitimate
stage, and Tully has engaged Janjeg
Young, who recently finished direfcting
Kipling's "Without Benefit of
Clergy," to direct him in these, his
first screen appearances. As Art Director,
Tullv has engaged Wilfred
Buckland, who until recently occupied
8, similar position with Famous Players.
Tully plans to do his picture
producing in and around Los Angeles,
work upon the "Omar" film having al
-- * +-U** T3 T-n ti f r>n
ready commenceu m mc ^uhwv..
studios. Other famous Tully successes
which he will eventually screen include
"Keep Her Smiling," "The
Flame" and "The Bird of Paradise."
. It should not be understood, however,
that Tully's film interests will
in any degree interfere with his activities
in the legitimate theatre. He
1 - x - j - /.amo/lu
has almost compieteu u mv>
which he intends to present on Broadway
next season, and in October will
produce in New York the reign
[ins: I.ondon success, "The Rijrht
Strike.*'
TOM MIX TO BESEEN
AS CHAMPION RESCUE
When Tom Mix opens at the ope
house Monday, in the Fox pictut
"The Bijr Town Round-Up/' he w
exhibit what is said to be an excee
inprly fine line of rescue work. T1
"Round-l'p" in which the acti(
switches from a ranch to 'Frisco ai
back again, is crowded, of cours
with thrilling: incidents?else it wou
not be a Mix entertainment. Amor
the thrills are number due to resci
work.
For example, Mix rescues a gi
from a ruffiian's insults by thrown
the ruffian off a speeding train. }
rescues this same girl later from
bunch of city thugs in a cafe. I
rescues the heroine from a big rattl
snake on his ranch by his accura
long: distance aim with a rifle. t
rescues her again in the city wh<
she falls befoic a stampeding ste<
at the stockyards. And he saves fro
death in a city park a little girl wl
is hanging head down on her runaw?
pony. Also he is kept tolerably bu:
rescuing himself from his enemies.
When Mix isn't rescuing someboc
he's fighting a grang of thuds?wil
