B. HARRIS SAYS i
TEXAS CROP SHORT;
Editor The Herald:?On May 6th
I left my office and started on my way
to attend a pure food and feed and
drug convention to be held in Galveston,
Texas, on the 8th, 9th. 10th
and 12th. In order that I might see
as much of the present condition of
the crops as possible, from Xew Orleans
I went over the Sun Set route
to Houston, Texas, ana in cumins .
back I came ove.r the Southern Pasific
railroad to Dallas and Fort
Worth. From Fort Worth I came
over the Texas Pacific by way of Little
Rock, Arkansas, Memphis, Tennessee.
through northern Alabama by
way of Birmingham and North Georgia
to Atlanta. These two routes
carried me over some of the best
cotton lands in the following states:
the Piedmont belt of South Carolina
and Georgia; on by Montgomery and
Mobile, Ala. ,From New Orleans I
went through Louisiono into Texas.
On my return trip I came through
Arkansas and Tennessee. I saw men
from every section of the cotton belt,
so I got direct positive facts in regard
to each section of the great state
of Texas.
In south Texas where the cotton is
nbw fruiting, the boll weevil is re^
in aroator number than ever
before at this season of the year and
doing greater damage, as the winter
was so warm great numbers came
through the winter. In west Texas
we hear a great deal of dope put out
by the bear speculators stating what
a fine prospect they had there. On
the loth of this month they had one
of the worst storms that had ever
been known in that section?all the
lowland was over flooded and the
rr?*v?.of Vio-il eirtrw tliat over visitpd
Hf VI Ol Uall OWA JLU VMMV W w* .
that section. It was reported that at
least 30,000 acres of coton was damaged.
From Houston to Fort Worth, a
distance of 300 ipiles, I traveled in
the daylight?that was on the 18th.
I crossed four rivers on that trip and
everyone of them was out of its banks
and covered many thousand acres of
the very best cotton land. A great
portion of this land will not be planted
this year; if they have any more
rain it cannot be planted before June
181.
On my arrival in Dallas I called at
the federal farm bureau office, which
is located there handling the Cooperative
Marketing' association of
farm products. I saw the president,
Mr. Orr. I found him to be a very
pleasant gentleman and well informed
as to crop conditions. I asked him
what proportion of the Texas crop
was there to be planted and to be
planted over. He said at least fifty
per cent, of the crop up to the 18 th
of this month, taking the flooded districts,
was yet to plant, and from
what I could see I think he was about
right. .
I saw a great many good farmers,
also business men, and some bankers,
who have lived in Texas for
forty years and they have kept in
close touch with agricultural conditions;
they all said Texas had the
poorest prospect for a crop up to
this date they had seen in forty years
and they vcouId not make anything
like an average crop this year, owing
to the lateness of the planting and
excessive floods and cold rainy weather.
I saw some good cotton dealers
who don't hesitate to say that with
ideal seasons from now on we cannot
make over 8 % or 9 million bales this
year.
Now, as to the acreage, if it had not
been for the floods and heavy rains
Texas would have increased nrteen
per cent., but on account of the floods
she will not more than duplicate her
1921 acreage, and I doubt if she
does that. Arkansas cannot increase
on account of the same conditions
existing in that state. The only
states increasing in acreage this year
are Oklahoma and North Carolina.
Taking the cotton belt as a whole,
there will be no increase in acreage
this year. I rather believe there will
be a decrease in acreage.
I have said all the time that you
were going to see cotton very much
higher, and in 1923 you would see
cotton higher than it sold for in
1919; I am still of the same opinion.
We now have a real world famine in
cotton?the world is nearly naked.
No one has had anything like as many
cotton goods as they need?the world
is now beginning to get uneasy as to
where the cotton fabric is to come
from to clothe it with. Every yard
of cotton goods you buy now, you pay
ion a basis of 35c a pound for cotton
| and from th^s date on- you will see a
j material rise in price. Don't sell a
bale unless you have to. I receive
many letters every day now stating
that the boll weevil is sucking the bud ,
of the cotton.
I want to urge the farmers to p4ant
a row of corn every eight feet across
the cotton rows. And remember to
let this year be one year that you
raise everything you need on your
farm for home consumption and be
sure to keep out of debt. Let the i
bale of cotton you make this year be <
yours and sell it when you get ready.
My prediction is high cotton for 1922
crop. I want to say that the farmers
now have the situation in their own
hands?there will be no surplus on
September 1st. Xo use now for a bale
of cotton to ever sell without a profit
to the former. B. HARRIS.
