S. A. Williams, Clemson ex tension cotton ginning specialist, said reports show 88 per cent of the first 12,442 bales ginned this season were classed as middling the cotton had a staple length of one inch or longer. Mr. Williams' said cotton has been picked cleaner this year than for the past few yean. Smallness of the plants and dry weather which, prevailed over most of the state have helped make clean harvesting possible. “The moisture content in the seed 'otton has been generally low this fall, and very little is be ing used at the gins,” Mr. Wil liams said. He added, “Moisture Subscribe To The Chronicle | and better. Over 97 per cent of (tests run on seed cotton at the gins In a wide area of the state early in September showed he cotton to contain from 7 1-2 to 9 1-2 per cent moisture. Lint samples from the press showed from 5 1-2 to 7 1-2 per cent mois ture. The driers wee removing from 2 to 2 1-2 per cent of the moisture. Only one side of one bale was found to contain lees than S per cent of moisture. This condition was caused by part of the overflow from the gin con veyor being ri& through the drier. “Lint should contain from 5 to 7 per cent of moisture when it comes from the press,” he ex plains. “No effects of overdry ing were noted at any of the gins viitted.” County Project In Highwoy Bids Columbia, Sept. 13 — Sealed bids were opened yesterday morning for grading and bi tuminous surfacing of several projects in the up-state.
