The* 4x4 skip-row pattern
for planting cotton should be
studied closely by farmers
who have sufficient “good
cotton land.”
P. S. Williamson, Clemson
extension farm management
specialist, in meetings this
spring, is telling farmers the
4x4 pattern, which has been
popular with Texas and other
southeastern states, may be
their best choice under alter
natives offered by the United
States Department of Agri
culture.
‘‘There is money at stake
in the decisions farmers are
now making. This is the time
to do some figuring in. ofrter
to select the best pattern or
patterns which will fit the
larmer’s own situation.” x
WiHiamson used a set of
assumptions based upon
available research and found
that a farmer with 150 acres
ol cropland and with a 100-
acre cotton allotment might
make more money by divert
ing 35 per cent of his cotton
acreage and planting the re
mainder in the 4x4 pattern. ^
Under this plan the farmer
would use 130 acres of his

cropland for cotton (the 4x4
pattern), use the skipped
rows for collecting diversion
payments, collect for divert
ing his 35 acres, and plant
the remaining 20 acres of his
cropland to soybeans.
Assuming that his project
ed and actual yields of cotton
would be 500 pounds of lint
for solid planting, this farm-
ii would stand to make more
under the selections given
according to Williamson.
The major incruments of
income under this plan would
be. according to the econo
mist. 13.540 from cotton, $3.-
065 for using the skipped
rows as diverted acreage,
S1.838 from the 35 acres ac
tually diverted, and a $700 in
come from the 20 acres of
soybeans.
1 otal projected income un
der the plan is $9.233.. This
was better than any of the
other alternatives offered
this particular farmer.
W illiamson said, however,
that it is not possible to rec
ommend a “best alternative”
for all farmers.
Factors which would deter
mine the best course of ac
tion would be governed by
availability of good cropland,
whether the land is owned or
rented, availability of lobar
and equipment, the size of
the allotment, and level of ef
ficiency.
For instance, a farmer
would be more inclined to
plant skip-row if he had high
yield objective and was an ef-
ticient producer, if he had a
large allotment,. owned his
land, and had the needed
equipment and plenty of
available cropland.
Under Williamson’s plan
the skipped rows in the 4 x 4
pattern may be used as di
verted acreage. Under other
skip-row alternatives, except
tor the 2x4. the farmer is
penalized. The 4 x 4 pattren
has the added advantage of
having the two outside rows
with a higher yield potential.
W illiamson says research
in Mississippi and in South
Carolina shows that a farm
er might exoect about 660
pounds of lint per allotted
acre when the 4 x 4 pattern is
used, provided he has been
getting a00 pounds of lint
from soil planting.
EVERYDAY
COUNSELOR
By Bishop Herbert Spangh
Death always stuns a
household. Those things
which w«re so important a
few days ago seem to shrivel
into insignificance. Some re
turn with a new faith, some
forget, some never recover.
Jerusalem was stunned by
Cavalry. Frightened people
hurried home. The pagan
Roman centurian in charge
of the execution was heard to
-exclaim, “Certainly this was
a righteous man; truly this
man was the Son of God.”
Judas went out and hanged
himself. Those who had
brought about the death of
lesus rushed into conslltation
to protect themselves. Satur
day was the day of the si
lence of death. But as the
day wore on and nothing
seemed to happen, Jerusa-'
lem settled back and prepar
ed to take up again on the
morrow. A few devoted
friends had taken Him down
from the cross the evening
before and tenderly laid Him
in a borrowed tomb. They
did not forget. But when the
astounding news of His resur
rection was told the next day,
to the great majority of the
people, it was an idle take;
they were back at the old
jobs again.
Most of us live on the sur
face of life until some shat
tering experience ploughs
through our hearts. These
generally occur in adoles
cence, often, called “Fool’s
Hill,” and in the middle
years which hav been called
“Second Fool’s Hill.”
Easter this year will mean
more for some than it has in
many a day. The armies of
death have marched up and
down the world, leaving
thousands of new graves in
their wake and taking from
family circles many whose
graves will never be known.
The families of these will be
thinking more about the
spiritual garments which will
bedeck them in the final
Easter parade, of which
Easter morning is an annual
reminder.
Easter calls the whole
realm of qature to newness of
!»fe. Tne garments of na«ure
wither and pass away; the
garments of man wax old
and become tattered with the
years; but: the garments of
the soul are imperishable.
Suffering precedes victory.
Death goes before resurrec
tion.
■ The message of Easter
Day brings to those who have
walked with their Lord the
way of the Cross, the mes
sage of eternal hope. To them
Jesus said. “Because I live,
ve shall live also.”
Death wraps into silence
the physical garments of the
soul. Happy is he who against
that day has provided imper
ishable garments for an im
perishable day. We dare not
gorget those garments of
rightousness which will adorn
those who love the Lord on
the final Easter morn, when
we will stand in the personal
presence of the Lamb of God
who offered Himself as the
supreme sacrifice for sin,
overcame for every man the
greatest enemy, death.
“The Saviour’s blood and
rightousness, My beauty is
my glorious dress; Thus well
arrayed, l need not fear,
When in His presence I ap
pear:”
