COTTON PIOKING.
A NEW AND VALUABLE INVENTION.

A NEW AND VALUABLE INVENTION.
The Augusta Chronicle and
Sentinel has the following on n
new cotton picking gin, recently
invented: =
We have accounts from the
Southwest Of the invention of q
new cotton gin, which promises
to be Of incalculable benefit TO the
cotton planter. ' a' e
Since emancipation, no part Of
the details for cultiyating and pre-.
pairing the cotton crop for market
has given the planters half the
trouble they have experience in
essViag Unefi V.VPs ls-A--. :
housed ready for the gin. Hands,
who, before the war, averaged 200
and 250 pounds a day, now rarely
exceed half of that amount. In.
deed the question of the future
supply of cotton from the South
has depended, not so much on the
amount which with our present
labor system we could actually
produce, but rather how much
could we pick and gather from
the fields. There Is hardly a
planter in the South who, since
the war, has gathered the crop
with the same number Of hands
required to cultivate it. Cotton
picking" and fodder pulling seem
to be the pet aversion Of negro
field laborers.
The inventor of the new gin
claims that by the introduction
and use of his machine the old,
tedious and troublesome plan of
picking the cotton from the bolls
in the field by hand is entirely
dispensed with. An exchange,
in giving a description of this
new invention says; 1T is
now only necessary to pluck
the bolls, cotton and all >
from the stalk. Three or four
bolls can be grasped at once and
torn away, and in this crude state
they are placed in the receiver OF
the machine, which separates the
cotton from the husks, leaves,
stems, dirt and sand, by running it
through the picker" ps iast as it
is wanted for ginning. The plan
ter merely sends the hands into
the field, where they gather in the
most rapid manner, all the matured
cotton, whether the bolls are open
or not. 1t is stored in this state
until q convenient time running II
through the machine. It is esti-
mated that one hand can pick one
thousand pounds of cotton in the
new way quicker than q person
can pick one hundred and fifty aC.
ter the old style, 1t is said that on
aplantation Of five hundred acres
Of bottom land, n single machine

from $1,000 to 10000 a year. Be
sides turning out a better article.
the new machine will extract at
least fifteen per cent, more cotton
than was saved under the old pro-
cess. The price will be about fifty
percent, more than the old appa.
ratus; but old gins can be so
changed as to be utilized in con
nection with the new invention"
If this gin shall perform all that
is claimed for it, the benefits
which the cotton planter will de-
rive from it's introduction will be
Of incalculable value. There are
two points Of excellence claimed
IN which we feel we'll assured there
viii be failures. We do not be
lieve that it win ever be possible
