the area planted to Sea Island during the past season is 276,000 

 acres, as against 316,000 acres the previous season, and it figures 

 on 90,000 acres for the coming season. 



Ducks, Drills, and Osnaburgs. — Demand is fairly strong and 

 stocks are low. Mills have not been able to fill their civilian 

 contracts so far. Prices, however, have fallen. Drills, 38-inch 

 200-yard, were 30J4 cents on December 26; they were 27^ 

 cents on January 25. Enameling duck, 38-inch 200 yard, was 

 31 cents on December 26; it was 29 cents on January 25. 



Raincoat Fabrics.— Cotton cloth purchases by the raincoat 

 trade have been very light, due to the anticipation of lower 

 prices. The market has been steadily declining. Bombazine, 

 64 by 60, water-repellant, was 17 cents on December 26 ; it was 

 14J4 cents on January 25. Plaids, 60 by 48, were 16H cents on 

 December 26; they were 1354 on January 25. Surface prints, 

 60 by 48, were 16J4 cents on December 26; they were 14 cents 

 on January 25. 



Tire Fabrics.— Prices have been going off for the last two 

 or three months, and consequently buyers are hesitating. While 

 the large consumers have stocks, the smaller mills have none. 

 The former, in certain cases, have bought in order to support 

 the market, realizing that a continued depression will eventually 

 result in a disadvantageous situation.
