' ; GROWING TINTED COTTON Ono o? the most Interesting mon as wull au ono of tho moat valuable mon In thc South just at thia time is, to our way of thinking, Mr. A. W. Brab ham, of Olar, H. C., who for some time has been currying some wonder ful experiments In Hie growing of tinted cotton. His tests have at tracted attention throughout the coun try and already he has been called upon to write much and much ha? been written by others about his ex periments. Just how much of lids lian been read hy the farmers of Anderson county wc do not know. But nt any rate we are very glad to have received from Mr. Brabham a highly interest ing communication with referenco to hlu experiments with tho growing of colored cotton. We feel sure lt will prove of very great interest to grow ers of tho staple throughout this sec tion. Just what the future holds for nat ural colored cotton, we confess wc do not ?mow, but If tho experiment turn:; out to bo a commercial success we seo no reason why lt. should not mean a complete revolution of cot ton growing and cotton manufactur ing methods. If lt can be made to take tho place of artlflcally colored cotton, that ls, cotton chemically dyed in tho mills, wo seo no reason why it should not provo ono of tho greatest achievements of tho times. Anything that will take the place of the chemical products nocoseary to color cotton now, and which are man ufactured almost wholly In foreign countries, and particularly In Qor many. ought to be welcomed lt seems to UR. Tho inconvenience to which cotton manufacturers dyolng their own cotton woro put on account of tho shutting off of shipments of chem ical dyes from Germany at tho out break of tho war ought to be sufllclcnt reason for tho welcoming of naturally colored cotton. But, above all, there ls tho probability that tinted cotton growing would prove moro profitable to thc grower than tho staple In Its present state, and that is a change which, would be most wolcome. As wo sold in the outset, wo do not know enough about this subject to diacuss lt at any length. What we have said is only wild guessing on our part. Wo submit below Mr. Brabham's letter as ho wrote lt, boping that it will provo of Interest to farmers gon *T'M?1 fl , i ??1$|?
