At 12,722,000 Bales
Washington, Sept.9.—The agricul
ture department forecast this year’s
cotton crop today at 12,722,000 bales
of 500 pounds gross weight, based on
conditions prevailing September 1.
The crop was forecast at 11,429,000
bales a month ago, based on condi

was 11,817,000 bales and averaged 13,-
547,000 in the ten years. 1929-38.
Abandonment of acreage after July

cent., compared with an average aban-'
donment of 1.9 per cent, during the
ten years, 1930-39,
The condition of the crop September
1 was 74 per cent, of a normal, com
pared with 72 a month ago, 70 a year
ago, and 62 the 1929-38 average.
A yield of 250.7 pounds of lint cot
ton to the acre is indicated from the
September 1 condition, the department
reported, compared with 222.3 pounds
indicated a month ago, 237.9 pounds
produced last year, and 198.1 pounds
the ten year average.
Cotton from the year’s crop ginned
prior to September 1 was reported by
the census bureau to have totaled
606,291 running bales and excluding
linters, compared with 1,401,691 bales
a year ago, and 1,335,653 bales two
years ago.
The acreage for harvest after aban

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.
