COTTON VARIETY TESTS
Valuable Results Being Ubtamcd by
South Carolina Experiment
Station
Clemson College, Jan. 13.?A test
consisting of about o4 varieties of cotton
is being conducted at the main
station and at each of the sub-stations
according to a recent report of Prof.
C. P. Blackwell, agronomist. Good
results were secured at both the Pee
Dee and the main station at the college.
This year (1921) the project
station under a heavy infestation of
the boll weevil and under very adverse
conditions.
At the main station at Clemson College
in 1920, the WannamakerCleveland
Big Boll gave the highest
yield?1672 pounds of see- i cotton per
acre. The second hignest yv;iJ was
secured by the Piedmont Cleveland?
1654 pounds. The lowest yield w?s
that of the Toole from the N. L. Wil
let Seed Co., Augusta, Ga.,?872
pounds. One of the most interesting
features of the test at this station was
the high yield secured from the Deltatype
Webber, a long staple variety.
This gave a yield of 1584 pounds of
seed cotton per acre, and the Webber
49 gave a yield of 1314 pounds per
acre.
At the Pee Dee expeiiment station
the Dixie-Triumph was tne oest variety,
making: 1927 pounds of seed
cotton per acre, while the Wannamaker-CIeveiand
Big Bol! was second in
rank with a yield of 1875 pounds. The
lowest yielding variety in this test

pie, which gave a yield of 11H2
pounds as compared with 1350 pounds
from the Dcltatype Webber. Both of
these long staple varieties are early,
having large .bolls and long staple
which make them very valuable un^
dcr boll weevil conditions.
This year's data (1921) are not yet
complete, but the results under heavy
boll weevil infestation check very
closely with those of last year and

j Columbia, .Jan. 10. ?mo manner m ;u
which the banks of the state have
J withstood the strain of deflation and
failing crops has been nothing short
j of marvelous, said James H. Craig,
'state bank examiner today in discuss- *r
ling the financial situation in South
I Carolina. Very few of the banks
j have closed their doors permanently, J
j he said, commenting on the close co- ^
j operation of the people with their ^
i fiduciary institutions, many cf the de-: *
| positors voluntarily agreeing to leave '
| their money in banks for twelve
j months to insure their solvency. 1
i "Such embarrassments as our ducks v
{have experienced." he said, "have
; been mainly due to inability to realize :
' upon loans. While generally speak|
inz. these loans, I believe, will be colI
iVI
! ectable, many of them are necessarily!
j slow. Given time, however, there is . c
jno reason to be pessimistic of the out- J

j est and they will meet changing conditions
with new zeal and determinaItion,
and reestablish the financial sta- i
j tus of our state as comparatively first
j in agricultural production.''
Continuing, Mr. Craig said: :
** i Hat we nave passed tnrou^n hh>m i
j of the depressing conditions with our j
; banking institutions still practically
i intact, gives us strength to begin the
!struggle of the new year. We need;
| not shut out eyes to the fact that the
j present year will be fraught with sej
rious difficulties, which will require,
'all the skill and energy of our best
| financiers to meet and overcome. Crop |
j diversification has at last been forced
| upon our agriculturists which will rej
quire the usual experimental periods
| of growing: an.l marketing untried |
'crops, but in ih<? end we will produce
j other paying crops than cotton and
j we will also continue to produce cotjton.
This has been anticipated, and
j already steps are being taken to
, bridge the necessary period of agricultural
readjustment. The most potent
factor to this end is the war fin-i
l . - , ;ance
corporation, which operating
j through our banks is extending need-1
jed credits. In this connection, it
(should be added that corresponding
ibanks within and without our state
have been most liberal in extending
I needed credits.
"In view of these facts, we look
!confidently to the future, with succcss'
es of the past as an earnest cf what
.we can do by stint of unflinching de-1
.termination and a public spirit of co-,
! operation.
j "It should .be added that banks are j
j just as strong: as the confidence of
i their patrons make them. Our problems
are not merely problems of the
| financiers, but are as well problems
; of the people. The man who with-J
j holds his deposits from the banks is
j working: to his own detriment, as well
jas to the detriment of the state. Co^ifidence
is the keynote of business, it
|is the sub-structure of banking and
i banking is the soul of business. Dc-;
istrov confidence and you destroy
j banking and hence destroy business.
The miser who hides away his savings
i in a niche in the wall, not only robs
'business, but actually robs hmself as
he is withdrawing from business tint
production which contributes to the
prosperity of the whole."
