The South has nffver stopped to think
how much money IL wasted In planting
each cotton crop Let US figure It ous
and See. Upon q safe estimate not less
than 400, 900 tonX Of cotton seed are
used each spring IL planting. The seed
Is sown lawfully in drills-not dropped
at certain distances. as corn-and after
the plants are up the crop Is thinned
with n hoe, more than nine-tenths OF
the young plants being cut out.
Here we lind that the seed used IN
planting the cotton crop would bring In
the market at least IS. 400. 600. AZ nine
tenths Of this is wasted. we see mere q
total waste of owe five and one-half
million dollars ($5. 76O.0O0.)
It 10 time for the cotton growers OF
the South to call q halt to TINS e1-
travagance. The old system OF sowing
cotton seed in the drill Is n remnant OF
the times when cotton seed was almost
worthless. Since then their value has
SO much enhanced that a change should
be made In the OF planting. In
stead Of sowing the seed In drills drop
them at a distance wanted. and by FOL
lowing this method not only the labor
OF thinning Is saved. but nearly 400.OOo
tons oil good cotton seed IL saved Tor
commercial use. and the farmers Of the
South are five million dollars richer.
