The census report shows that Grenada county raised 1851 bales
of cotton last year, oooI in 1910, aud 8eSS in 1909. This countys
increase was greater than almost any other county in the state. Boil
livar county leads, followed closely by Sunfower, Washington and
Coahoma in the order named. All these, however, show a falling off
from 1910. Bolivar produced seventeen thousand bales less last
year than the year before. The counties of the boil weevh district
show something of what the pest means; for example, the great delta
counties of Warren and Adams raised 8.l77 and 2,2ol bales each.
.Amite county only produced 1898 bales.
