A number of cotton bolls are on exhibition al
the First national bank In 0akdale. These specl-
mems were grown by Gus Greb Of Orange Blossom
colony and are splendid specimens OF cotton
The fiber seems TO be good length and the bolis
are large as the average seen on the cotton
plantations In Georgia and Alabama There is nc
doubt at all to the adaptabilty OF this coun-
try for cotton raising.
The industry only awaits the work or some
brave hearted pioneer to get the matter started
1t might be good thing for each OF us 10 de
vote a portion of gardens TO experimenting
with cotton growing. If should all make
little effort along this line and then have good
exhibit gathered and taken to the several falrs
throughout the state IL would not be long before
would have the whole country talking ahout
0akdale. 1t will not cost much of an effort and
IL may be the means of bringing our section &c
the front in cotton raising.-0akdale Graphic.
The Mother Lode Magnet says:
Similar bolls exhibition in the window
at the Hotel Neville at jamestown and the
plants were grown from seed by Walter Chat-
field, shop clerk for the Sierra railway.
''Mr. Chatfeld picked up some seeds that ne
found on car floor and planted them just out
side his Office.
THE plants have received little attention
other than occasional watering. but nave
thrived and borne numerous bolls, most OF wnlcn
have been picked as souvenirs.
This is another demonstration that cotton can
be raised in this section"
