104 — 
have yet seen. Last year the best I saw was sent by the Sudan 
Government and grown in Miralai Stanton Bey’s garden, with arti- 
ficial irrigation and quality was (first picking) class “ good ”, equal to 
Beni-Suef or Minieh cotton, but more woolly. In any case it is saleable 
cotton for coarse Nos. of Yarn, not what we call Bolton Spinners’ 
cotton. 
“ I now give you the following classification and values compared 
to Standard of Full Good Fair Lower Egypt which is the basis of 
“Futures” in our Market and Liverpool. 
“ On Upper Egypt the outturn in ginning on basis 315 lbs. per cwt. 
in seed runs from 100 to 104, and Lower Egypt 105-110 according to 
province grown and quality of seed. 
No. 1 Outturn 96 Class “good”, value P.T. 5 over Delta 
fully good fair — colour rather light — 
good staple, better than Beni-Suef Ash- 
mouni or even Afifi. 
No. 2 
No. 3 „

Long staple and finish does not look grown 
from afifi seed but from superior quality, 
value about P.T. 15 over F.G.F. 
Class “good”, the seed of this is from 
Delta because mixed — there is also some 
Abassi in and does not look as from afifi 
seed because finer than any afifi grown in 
Minieh and Beni-Suef, value 5 to 10 over 
F.G.F. 
“ Good ” in class, from mixed seed — some 
looks afifi, other better, probably Yanno- 
vich seed. There are traces of abassi — 
and is irregular in strength, value P.T. 15 
to 20 over F.G.F. 
Also from mixed seed — I can trace afifi 
quality and Yannovich, also some abassi. 
Value over F.G.F. about 7 to 10 P.T. 
About same as No. 5 and with same 
mixture.
