New York Cotton and Cottonseed Oil Markets Report
The New York cotton market faded from yesterday’s gains with a steady close and minor net decline. Cottonseed oil prices are listed for several futures months and grades. A foot and mouth disease quarantine was issued for Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, and Illinois as a precaution after hog cholera serum was shipped from Cook County, Illinois. The agriculture secretary also amended cotton futures law to designate Galveston as a bona fide spot market beginning August 18 for price differentials between grades of cotton delivered on future contracts.
