Experiment* ?show That Short j Staple u Thine for An derson County. Anderson County farmers, and for that matter, many people living in the City of Anderson, are inter' 'ted in the relative cost of production of long staple cotton and short staple. Therefore, the fact that important figurer in this matter have been made public will be of interest. John C. Fletcher, of Adamsville, has for many years conducted an ex perimental farm for the United States government, and has made numerous experiments in varieties of crops, cultivation and. fertilization. The farmers Institute for his, county was held at his farm last summer. Ho is recognized as one of the very best and most practical farmers in South Carolina. Mr. Fletcher has been experiment ing this year with long and short staple cotton, an J ho sends the Pee Dee Daily the following statement of results: Long vs. Short Staple. Your paper has said something about the long staple cotton, and I wish to give you sales of samp com Sered with short staple sold, the.same ay, arid will take one of roy tenants that had a bale of each kind. Sale of one hale short staple, 140G pounds seed cotton, bale weighed 638*4 pounds at 13% cents, $71.34. One baie long staple, 1400 pounds seed cotton, bale weighed 308 pcv.ntla at 16*4-cania; 64.67.^ Diffei?iice in favor" of short staple, $6.67. You will see that if we could make as much. long staple as short staple, we1 will .lose unless we can get more for Itt' and this year I do not think we will make more than two-thirds as much. If you think the above sales are worth anything to our people, you cap please arrange and publish it for the good of our farmers. Respectfully yours, ,. Jno. C. Fletcher. , ? Value of the Seed. Mr. Fletcher does , not give .thc value of the seed in the above state ment. . At the, current prices.the need from the long staple bale would have sold for about $12.60, and the seed from th?.short staple at about $10.75; a difference ci ?I..Z in favor .pf the lung staple. This would make the total sales rom the 1400 pounds of short staple cotton $82.00; and from 1400Vpounds of long staple, $76.57; leaving a dif ference of $5.62 in favor of the short staple. , This does not take into considera tion the fact that it costs from $1.00 to $1.50 more to gin a bale of long staple than short staple, on account of the slower speed and greater ?are required. This would about balance the extra receipts for the seed. \ These figures show that it world i have required 18 cents per pound far 1 this bale of long staple to bring ns ' much money as the snort staple bale. T.iw? -."c ?-S.?--C .t?-Mig .Oft?/ two-thirds as much per acre as tho short staple, it would require nearly 27 cents, or more than twice as much, per pound for an acre bf lone staple to bring the farmer as much money cs an acre of short staple. This can be briefly, demonstrated from Mr. Fletcher's figures, as fol lows: . ' - Suonose he gets 2100 pounds of short" staple seed cotton from an acre. This would vield 808 pounds of lint, which, at ?3.2S would bring . #107.06. . The long staple acTe produces two thirds as rouen, or 1400 pounds o seed cotton, which turns out 39jl \ ? --,-? tn farm or W.H.

Yt wnnlH mst more 1 to gin'the 1400 ponds of long staple than the 2100 pounds of short staple, but, at BO cants per 100, it would cost $3.50 more to pick the short staple than the long staple, which would take the extra amount receiv ed for short staple seed. . lt took the same amount of land, fertilizer and labor to produce 398 pounds of long staple cotton that it took to produce 80s pounds of short staple. So it is evident, from Mr. Fletcher's experience this year, that it costs more than twice aa .much to produce a pound of long staple cotton aa it does to produce a' pound of short staple; and, to yield the same profit, the long staple must, sell for more than twice as much as the short staple. The Daily and Advocate will he | glad to receive reporta of the exper ience of other farmers. Others have j no doubt obtained different results. WILLI I AM?.
