KING COTTON WINS WAR OVER RAYON FOR TIRE CORD MARKET Announcement that licenso has been issued to an Knglish cotton textile manufacturer to produce the patented Bibb Heat Resistant Cotton Cord tor consumption in the British Isles marks a milestone in the victory of cotton over rayon for use throughout the world in autofhobile and truck tires. The information given out by \Y I) Anderson, President of Bibb Manufacturing Company, at the annual banquet for the salsemen in Macon, Georgia, last week is of vital interest to cotton farmers and others f oiu-erned with the welfare of the fleecy staple. Cotton interests have been greatly disturbed recently by reports that the use of rayon would cut heavily into the 3o0.oou.000 pound market previously supplied by cotton for use in the manufacture of tires. This figure represents roughly ten per cent of mestlc production. The new patented method of processing cotton, which shows performance strikingly superior both to rayon cords and cords made of cotlon by old processes, has been shown by actual service tests over a period of three years to outlast any rubber tread the tire-makers have been able to prodine Tires do not get as hot in heavy duty service, do not grow in size, and regularly outlast two or more retreads, j This purely Southern product, developed and produced by Southerners, no longer depends entirely upon twist io give strength to cord, as has been the case since the beginning of time. The new process bands together the cotton fibers by first softening the waxes inherent in all cotlon fiber and finishing Lhe cord while these waxes are soft, meanwhile compressing them and permitting them to harden, resulting in a cord of revolutionary charaet erlst ics. Reports of extensive research and tests indicate that tires made of the lloat Resistant Processed Cotton Cords last longer, are safer, and cost less than rayon tires. Southerners demanding them help their pocket book two ways at the same time. POULTRY AND EG08 BRING REAL MONEY TO FARMERS Columbia, April 10.?Poultry shipments by South Carolina farmers to date thlH yoar exceed those of the same period last year by 20 per cent, according to E. H. Talbert, marketing specialist of the Extension Service of Cleinson college, announcing that 709,902 pounds of poultry and 8,206 dozen eggs have been marketed for $88,518.74 during the three months. These shipments, which served 1?? 768 farmers, have been made by the county and home agents as often as necessary to accommodate those having surplus poultry for sale. The Increase, Mr. Talbert says, can be attributed partly to the fact that farmers are looking for new sources of Income and are finding real money In poultry and eggs.
