Uid Inin lliniTiil Columbia, Sept. 9.—The condition of South Carolina’s cotton crop at 81 per cent of normal “is the highest ever reported for September 1, and indi dates a record yield per acre of 350 pounds lint,” Federal Agricultural Statistician FVank O. Black reported today. He said that the figure, however, was only eight pounds above the pre vious high yield of 342 pounds made Irat year and compared with average yields of 251 pounds for the ten years of 1929-’38 and the 219-pound aver age for 1928-’32 immediately preced ing the inauguration of the control program. “Prospects are best in ten Piedmont counties from Northern McCormick to Southern York, where the condition was reported as 84 per cent of normal on September 1,” the official said. “The condition was 81 per cent in the easterc., or Ptee Dee, section and 77 per cent in the southernmost portion south and east of Orangeburg. Else where the cotton averaged 75 per cent.” Black reported that the boll weevil had damaged some fields considerably but that “infestation for the stab- as a whole is the lowest of record since the present form of question (answer ed by crop reporters) on weevil infes tation was begun in 1927.” The state’s crop, he said, improveo 7 per cent during August and the Sep tember 1 outlook was for 963,000 bales for 500 pounds gross weight. A crop of that size would be 32,000 bales, or 4 per cent larger that last year’s crop and 83,000 bales, or 10 per cent above average production for 1929-’38.
