VALUE OF COMMUNITY COOPERATION
IN COTTQN GROWING
Clemson College, Nov.? Several
years ago the Agronomy Division of
ni? n-n 1? ? ??
viciubuii v^uuege realized ine value |
of community cooperation in cotton
growing and inaugrated work along
this line in several counties of the
state. The work will be further developed
next season, as an aid in
fighting the boll weevil.
Community cotton growing is the
planting of one good variety chosen
by the growers of a community and
further improvement by seed selection
each year.
One of the beneficial results to be
obtained from this plan is the discarding
of inferior verities, or so
called varities, which are being
grown in South Craloina, and which
cause a large part of the cotton crop
to be low quality.
It is the common belief of
many farmers that a variety runs out
after having been grown for several
years; but if proper seed selection
is maintained, the variety should be
improved both in yeild and in quality
and become adapted to local conditions.
The so-called running out of
varieties is due chiefly to crossing
of varities in fields close together
and mixing of seed of different
varieties at public gins.
These difficulties may be overcom
if the growers would adopt one good
variety and grow it exclusively. This
would result in the production of a
more uniform and better quality
staple that would sell at a premium,
for buyers are fast demanding greater
uniformity in length and quality
and are willing to pay for these
things.
Earliness, prolificness, uniformity
and length of staple and a high percentage
of lint are some of the qualities
aoucrht in nroducinir ? ripKirnhle
cotton for growing under ,boll weevil
conditions.
CooperatiTe Growing (.etioni
Weevil Damage
When many vairties are planted
in a community, some are earlier
fruited than others and the weevils
will have multiplied on the earlier
fruiting cotton and immigrate to the
later fruiting varities in such unmbers
as practically to destroy the
crop. f
The variety which begins to bloom
first is not necessarily the best, for
there are three distinct factors in
earliness. These factors are (1)
time at which cotton begins to bloom,
(2) the rapidity with which blooms
appear after blooming starts (3)
length of time required for fruit toi
develop after bloom opens.
A great many people' have overlooked
the second and third points
and have judged the earliness of cotton
entirely on the basis of time it
begins to bloom. Actually, points
iwo aim tnree are more important
than point one and should he carefully
considered in choosing the variety
for earliness.
In thef inal analysis high yields
and better quality at reduced cost
per acre are desired.
Varieties Recommended for Adoption
According to tests such varieties
as King, Half and Half, Simkins,
and Cooke have shown undesirablel
qualities and are not to be recommended.
.
The following varieties which have
given best results for South Carolina
conditions, are recommended for
community adoption.
1. Short staple varieties,?Cleveland
Big Boll on wilt-free land.
Dixie Triumph on wilt-infested land.
2. Long staple varieties,?Webber
49, Deltatype Webber.
Lightnfng Express made a good
showing at Clemson College Experiment
Station this year.
YE FARME GOSS1PE
One way to take the evil out of
weevil for the next year is to destroy
cohoii siaiks ana oiner nioernaung
places now.
??%
As a consumer of by-products and
farm waste the porker wins the
championship.
If you really want to help Mrs.
Biddy fill the egg basket, feed the
bird.
To too many farmers a new idea is
about as welcome as a dose of poison.
There are less than ten fruit trees
average per farm in South Carolina.
Therefore, fruit is high.
Even doubting Thomases should
see now that cooperative marketing
of cotton and tobacco is not a mere
"gesture."
A tip as to soil building: The
farmer like all other people must
"put" if he wishes to "take."

WASHINGTON COMMENTS |
Not infrequently the proponent of
a vigorous Americanization program
ia answered with "Oh, what's the useT
A few foreigners, more or less, who
don't understand us, won't hurt. ' ~
There are plenty of patriotic and
sentimental reasons why "a few more
or less" will hurt and hurt badly.
And there are as many pratical reasons.
Bolshevism, Red propaganda,
Sovietism radicalism of all kinds, are
not spread in America by Americans,
but by foreigners. Short of deporting
afl foreigners, which is unthinkable
in peace time, there is no other
plan save that of Americanization,
which will keep this the America of
Americans instead of a try-out station
for wild communistic and anarchistic
schemes.
An instance of the need of greater
vigilence in Americanization work is
at hand in the funny reports printed
in German papers regarding the election.
According to some of these,
President Harding is about to resign,
Governor Smith 'of New York is to
become President, the prohibition
laws were repealed, the entire Congress
was turned1 out of office, and a
new one installed.
If all German, French, Austrian,
and Polish children in the country
knew of their own knowledge, from
proper Americanization education, the
facts about this country, it is hardly
possible that their parents and grandparents,
in writing to Europe, could
fail to give a true, rather than a false
picture of political conditions in this
country. It may be argued that it
doesn't make any difference if Germany
is told by her newspapers a set
of untruths"about our domestic elections,
but that is not the point. Misrepresentation
and misunderstanding
of one country by another, interfere
with trade, cause friction, and sometimes
war, and prevent the spread of
culture and education, and thus of
civilization.
Not to realize that Americanization
is as improtant to our foreign children
and their parents, as education is both
to them and to American children, is
to remain unconscious of or.e of the
vital problems which is to-day faced
by the land we love.

SYSTEMATIC MARKETING OP
COTTON STABILIZES PRICES
Columbia, Nov. 21/? Cooperative
marketing of cotton is the greatest
constructive force now Working for
the development of Southern prosperity,
in the opinion of Carl Williams,
President of the American Cotton
Growers Exchange. Mr Williams
has been in Columbia for two days in
' conference with the Board of Direct
ore ana management of the South
Carolina cotton Growers, Association.
"The orderly marketing program
followed by the cotton cooperatives
of the South, is generally acknowledged
to be a great stabilizing force
on cottfon prices," said Mr. Williams.
"Thus it has assured the Southern farmers
of the good price for cotton
during the period when farmers themselves
had cotton to sell. This same
result has been experienced by other
commodity cooperative associations in
the United States. Those agricultural
sections, which have profited foi
the longest period by this system ol
marketing, are today first in the
, United States in per capita bank depor-Ls
and among farmers, first ir
jjcj. cupiiu iraae in stores, first ir
good roads, first in quality of rura
schools , first in salaries of countrj
teachers, first in number and size ol
country churches, first tin salaries ol
rural preachers and first in rural recreation.
"These things have a direct rela
tion to city and town business. The
; effect of the cooperatives has been ti
increase the percentage of the con
sumer's time, which the farmer re
ceives, and thereby to increase hi:
buying power and raise his standarc
of living. The natural result is thai
all business is benefitted proportion
' ately.
"I am very much pleased with tin
' progress of South Carolina Cottor
Growers' Cooperative Association an<
equally well pleased with the sunnori
which has been givm the Asoca.lior
i by l..rnurs, busi;:. ss men bankers
of this state. 'the As wir.iinn h..s
already passed the experimental stauc
and has become a permanent part yi
the life of South Carolina. There
is every indication mat it will hatYdk
more than 20 per cent of the total
cotton crop of South Carolina thh
year, and that it has become a domi
nant figure in the cotton business oi
this state.
"Eight other state organizations oi
similar size, character and policies
are working with the South Carolina
Association. Their total membership
is more than 175,000 cotton farmers."
