The Department of Agriculture projected a 1924 cotton crop of about 12,144,000 bales with 40,403,000 acres in cultivation, a 4.4 percent rise from last year.

The New York cotton report sparked a heavy selling wave, with July and October futures dropping and the market closing lower. Local produce prices for eggs, cheese, poultry, meats, and fruits show mixed demand and steady to weak trends across commodities.
