ff * l ^ / un mm? j ? WmU| CMtoa Letter by Serannah 1 V Ootton Factorage Co. ' The much talked of glnners and ' condition reports as of September 2(th were published yesterday, the . former at 10 A. M. and the latter at ] 11 A. M. The trade had been expectJ Ihg a large glnners' (3,000,000 bales or more) and a low condition (39 to 40.) It was predicted by some that cotton would decline when the ginning figures were announced, and would .advance when the condition report came out. But this prediction was reversed. The market advanced 1-3 8c. when the ginning figures proved to be below 3.000.000 bales, and there was a break of 195 points an hour later when the condition was glruh as 42.2. Trade and investment buying set in on. the break and the market advances again, closing verv steady at a net advance of 25 to 44 points. The total number of bales ginned to September 25th was 2,907,950, Indicating a crop of 6.537000 bales and an average yield of 118 lbs. per acre. Picking is about over in the Southern half of the belt, and very little cotton remains to be ginned except in the northern portion. Statistics for the last week in September showed: - Spinners takings for the week 249,000-bales against 123,000 bales in 1020. Spinners takings since August 1st showed an increase of 723,000 bales as compared with 1920. 4 Exports thus far this season exceed those of 1920 by 460,000 bales, of ah"tnerease of more than 100 per cent. ~ "'"With these facts before us we feel Justified in advising owners of cottbn to'bontinue selling very slowly or to liold for higher prices. ? . ?

The early- fall destruction of cotton stalks Is the*most Important single step tn any tight against the .cotton boll weevH.iS? says Prof. A. F. Conradi, entomologist, who adds that it , has beeen trhown time and again in prac,tlce atad by experiments that the most farontble conditions for the boll weeVil to pass the winter successfully are found In those fields in which tH?e*QOttl>n stalks, together with grass peeds. fallen leaves and other raff use jyfe' lefjt undisturbed until nearly time to plant the' following season. On ^pch: fields the greatest number of weevils will survive and every farmer should ask himself the question. "Will J permit my farm to be a winter, hotel for the pest?" In other words, will the farmer choose to destroy the weevil this fall or have the weeveil destroy his cotton next season? The earlier the stalks are destroyed the fewer weevils will survive tne winter, in rested fields it is- common to find weevils at the rate of five thousand to twenty-five thousand per acre at the time of first frost. It is a well known fact that the weevils developing late in the fall are the ones most likely to survive the winter, as they are not worn otit by'iong flights and the rearing of thfe ybung as are the older weevils. For this reason, development of weevils in late fall must be prevented as the first step in making the next cotton .prop. Therefore, we should start now a cleaning campaign such as South Carolina has never before witnessed. The boll weevil is a pest with a terrible amount of fight, and to meet this situation our farmers must develop the best fighting spirit of which they are capable. '<5hriy stalk destruction and clean t?r&W& with cover crops, constitute the most powerful gun that can be used "against the pest at this time. falVaJnvjer method of cleaning is employed,'one thing is certain: The weevifs winter hotels must be destroyed In the words of General Neville.'j>ef ore Verdun, "they shall not pass." o Dillon Boy Preaches to Ciypies. ?. ?.
