Southeast counties produced 75 235 00 pounds seed cotton valued at 3 954 720 after ginning, yielding 22 570 500 pounds fiber valued at 729 376. Seed value rose sharply with late 1910 price spikes not counted. The piece surveys mills, by products, and regional manufacturing potential for Ozark water power.
