Cotton saluted during Spring Festival week When one thinks of the fall of the year, he thinks of this as the harvesting season. Yet before one can harvest a crop, it must be planted, which brings to mind this time of year which is known as the planting season. This week, designated as Spring Festival Week in South Carolina finds the Newberry county Farm Bureau cooperating with the S. C. Farm Bureau in saluting the cot ton industry which still produces quite a bit of farm income to this county. “Though cotton can no longer be called “King” in South Caro lina agriculture, it placed second in total income to producers in the state last year,” said Bobby Long who is chairman of the Newberry Farm Bureau Cotton Committee. “It was second only to tobacco but came within $500,000 of taking first place.” In 1963 Newberry county farm ers harvested 3,900 acres of cot ton and received $440,000 income from the production. Some 2,650 bales were sold, according to the figures of the crop reporting ser vice. Although cotton does not claim the name “King”, Mr. Long con tinued, “the commodity deserves a place in the state’s royal court when the number of jobs, the in dustrial income and its value to the state’s total economy are con sidered. Approximately 58 per cent of South Carolina farms grow cot ton, according to the National Cotton Council. The crop alone re turned to fanners in 1963 over $75 million and an additional 8.8 mil lion for seed. The total payroll of the textile and apparel industries in S. C. was $590 million in 1962. This was 54 per cent larger than the combined payrolls of all other manufacturing establishments in the state. S. C. Spring Festival will be climaxed Saturday night, April 10 in Columbia by the state’s first “Cotton-anny.” This is a hootenanny fashion show being sponsored by the Col umbia Chamber of Commerce and the South Carolina Farm Bureau. The program will feature the nat ionally known “Modem Folk Quar tet” and several folk singing groups of Columbia. The program will be staged in the Township Auditorium beginning at 8:00 p.m. In addition to the music, City merchants will present lovely mod els wearing the newest spring fashions made of cotton. The fash ion show will include formal, cas ual, and street wear. Among the models will be Miss Pat Clyburn, Miss High School of America, of Bishopville, and Miss Cecilia Anderson, Miss S. C.
