Increased Bales and Tons of Seed Objective of 1951 National Cotton Program Clemson. April 14.—To increase bales of cotton and tons of seed is the objective of the national cot ton progra mfor 16 million bales of cotton in 1951. according to a state ment issued this week by D. W. Watkins, director. Clemson Exten sion Service, and chairman of the South Carolina State Cotton Cort)- mittee. He says the production end of this program is the business of pa- proxunately two million cotton growing families from the Atlantic to the Pacific, of which about 88.- 000 are in South Carolina ‘To these families the 1951 cot ton program represents opportuni ty plus t whole set of problems.’* he explains. "Many individual cot ton growers will increase acreage: many others will increase yields per acre; and many will do both. It will be a part of the plan of every cotton grower to spend less on making the crop than he wtU get from the sale of the products That margin of difference is the living for his family and the security of his creditors. The amount and coat of credit, seed, and farm labor coupled with fertilizer, poisons, good planting the weather, the quality of his management and the price of cot ton next fall will largely determine both how much cotton and how much profit for family living he makes. ' he adds. Director Watkins points out thit to help with suggestions, informa tion, and services the state and county* cotton committees will be active in 1951. With some prospect for a better cotton season than dur ing the past two years in South Carolina, he says it seems wise for cotton growers this year to go a- bout the job systematically and carefully plan each steo “It is not believed desirable that any farmer should sacrifice other farm enterprises with which he has been able to “beat cotton.** he con tinues. The past two years, like the year 1941, were abnormal, and it seems reasonable that such a season is not likely to hit again ‘The Clemson Extension Cotton Committee has already advised ear ly purchase of equipment, poisons, and fertilizers; the careful treat ment of planting seed against seed ing diseases: and the overhauling and repair of all cotton machinery and equipment. It has. in coopera tion with representatives of the South Carolina Experiment Station, prepared and printed its 1951 cot ton production, insect and control recommendations as Extension Cir cular 358, which has been widely distributed, and it wiTl continue with timely suggestions throughout the season, which, along with the work of county agents, agricultural teachers and others represented on county and state cotton committees, is expected to help South Carolina fanners make the most of the 1951 opportunity in cotton production. "It is even suggested that some+ji contest in the state-wide five-acre cotton contest may this year beat the record yield of 8275 pounds off lint produced on five acres in 1946 by J. Harvey Neeley of Chester county. The same prizes are again} being offered in this contest as fol-i lews: By the Cotton Manufactur ers' Association of South Carolina.} $2000 for state and district prizes, by the South Carolina Cottonseed Crushers* Association approximate ly $3200 for first and second coun ty prizes: and by the South Caro lina branch of the Atlantic Cotton! Shippers' Association an additional annual accumulative amount of, 8500 as a sweepstakes prize to the grower who beats Neeley’s record mentioned above. There are now three years of annual 8500 pay ments available for this sweep- stakes prize, making the total 81500 that will go to a cotton winner in 1951 if one should beat the pres ent record.” Director Watkins con-, elucev Baptist Rally To Be Held Sunday With Laurens Church The Laurens Baptist Association- al fifth Sunday Training Union ral ly u iU be held with the Lucas Ave- ' nue Baptist church in Laurens Sun day afternoon.
