IK)ES YOl'R COTTON DIE?
County Agent Tells of Experience of
Barnwell County Farmer.
AI>out six years ago a fanner in
the Galilee section of Barnwell Coun
ty—Mr. Johnson Black—was growing
Hnlf-and-Half cotton. Having ob
served his cotton during the growing
t-Wson before, 1 found that he had n
great deal of damage done by black
root, or wilt, and root knot. In the
early Spring of 1918, I went to see
Mr. Black and discussed with him the
necessity of his using p wilt resistant
type of cotton. Mr. Black was rather
hard to convince that he should not
plant Half-and-Half cotton. He said
that it was a good cotton, it turned
out more lint per hundred pounds of
seed cotton than any other he had
ever tried, and all in all it was the
best cotton he knew of. After some
argument I convinced him that it was
a very poor cotton to plant, due to the
fact that it had the shortest staple
of any cotton, that it was more sus
ceptible to root knot and nnthracnose,
he finally agreed io buy 10 bushels of
old fashioned Dixie, which cotton was
small 1k)11, leafy, late type of cortton.
However, he planted this cotton, made
a comparative test along with his
HaJf-and-Htilf seed, and'at the end of
the year he fojiinl that ^ if he had
bought pure Dixie seed to have plant
ed his entire crop he would have made
over $">00 clear. So when the new
early big boll Dixie Triumph was put
on the market, Mr. Black immediately
seized the opportunity to secure some
of these seed through the County
Agent. ^
In I'.IL’O the County' Agent bought
one thousand bushels of Dixie Tri
umph cooperatively for the farmers
of this county, placing thc-e seed
. with 4U or HO different farmers. As a
result of this work with Mr. Bhfk
and others there has been a gre it
saving to the farmers iff Barnwell
County, probably ranging from ten
to twenty thousand dollars per year.
Mr. Black h.as told his story to prob
ably L’T) to HR) other farmers, and'.is
a result of this piece of work, great
good has been done in the control of
tliis very bad disease called black
ix>ot or wilt.
There rs another disease that goe*
hand in hand with black root, namely,
root knot. This .disease is in the soil
and helps to make the cotton ^jjalks
weak, thereby giving the black root
an opportunity of killing them.
The method'of control of this dt ; -
case along with root knot is VerySdtn-
. pie and consists in the following
Grow nothing but pure Brabham' iron
peas (which arc not available in,,
Barnwell County) or velvet lieans in
your corn for hay. keeping cotton, the
.ordinary types of cow peas and soy
beam off of this land for two years,
then afterwards,using pure Dixie Tri
umph cotton seed, but owing to the
tact that rout knot also does damage
it will pay every farmer having those
diseases in his land to conform to the
•above out line.
In addition to Dixie Triumph being
wilt mistant, it H an exceedingly
good type of cotton, l>oing fairly
early, and it is reported by a large
.lumber of farmers that hs bolls aix'
somewhat harder then the ordinary
types of cotton, and. therefore, le«s
damage is done to tne cotton from
weevil punctures late in the season.
Any one interested in securing in
formation where good Dixie Triumnh
cotton seed may he purchased will
take the matter un with
H. G. Boy Is top,
County Agent.

It
Buick Character
Makes Buick Value
•
Buick value is something more than appears
on the surface. It is more than the excellence
and beauty of Buick design—more than the
greater riding comfort, power and safety that
Buick provides. Buick’s value comes from
the sum total of all those Buick qualities and
traditions which together make up Buick
character. A Buick owner fully appreciates
Buick character. He knows the dependable,
satisfying and trouble-free transportation
which Buick gives, however long or however #
far a Buick owner may elect to drive his car.
