44 If there is to be a decrease in
the cotton acreage in South Carolina
this year, there is little evidence
of it between Fort Mill and
Columbia." a day or two airo said
a Fort Mill man who had jusi returned
home from a trip to the
capital city. "On both sides of
the railroad for the 90-odd miles
to Columbia every available acre
seems to have been prepared for
the usual cotton crop. This condition
probably is not peculiar to
this section of the State and if
there are not as many bales grown
in South Carolina this year as
there were last year I tliink it
will be because so many farmers
are unable to secure fertilizer to
put under their crops and not because
of any real desire to decrease
the size of flic crop. The
farmers seem.to be standing to-j
I get her all right?for as big crop
as they can get out of tin?
ground."
