Farmers who fail to use good bag
2lng, and cnougg CT it to entirely cover
their cotton, make Il great mistake.
kotten and ragged bagging always dc
preciatcs the price on that bale, and
those who do not use enough bagging
to cover the sides and ends lose the
difference between the price OF cotton
and that of bagging for the amount of
bagging lacking Oh each bale. The
present price of cotton makes il good
profit on the bagging, and farmers
should use enough to market their cot
ton i'll desirable shape.
