Pick Cotton, Bolls And All
lty the simple process of picking
cotton in the boll, incubating- the crop
thus gathered, and then extracting
the fiber by machine, the inventor of
a new system promises a practical
metamorphosis of the whole cotton industry.
says the January Popular
Mechanics Magazine in an illustrated
article. A $150,900 plant already has
proved the practicability of the idea.
The success of the method rests on
th?* discovery that cotton matures as
l. v.,,11
muen as mree weens wiuic n.c >>..
opens, and actually deteriorates from
the time the boll firstf cracks. One
machine unit produces one bale an
hour, requiring 20 hp. to run, 20 lb. of
steam, and two attendants. Cotton so
picked is declared to be cleaner,
brighter, stronger, and longer-fibered
than the staple as handled at present.

Prize Cow is Honored Guest
A comely black-and-white cow was
an invited and well-behaved guest at
a business men's luncheon in the
"crystal room" of a Portland. Ore.,
hotel recently. The purpose of the occasion
was to honor the bovine, known
as "Tilly Alcartra", for extraordinary
industry and productiveness. She is
seven years old, and in six years has
produced 156,776.1 lb. of milk, yielding
6,146.36 lb. of butter.
