'So much poverty and suffering exist ed in the neighborhood at the time that the Major and her helpers did'not feel Justified in taking even s slim dime to buy a new dishpan.

Taking into consideration the cost of picking and handling the extra amount of cotton produced and the extra amount of fertilizer applied on these test patches, there is still a bal ance of returns in favor of these high er yields of from $300.00 to $400.00 per acre, which ia well worthy of the deepest consideration on the part of the cotton farmers who expect to pro duce cotton with profit under" the present conditions. In tbe profitable production of cot ton in 4 the future larger yields per acre will be the keynote of success.
