Third OF CROP
HAS BEEN LOST
HERE in SUMTER

One-third of the entire cotton crop
of Sumter county will be total loss,
in the opinion Of those here who have
studied conditions, as the result of
storms and inability upon the part Of
farmers to get the cotton picked. Mr.
7. G. Hudson, former commissioner of
of agriculture and very careful OBJ
server, is one of those who expresses
the belief that fully one-third of the
cotton crop produced in Sumter coun-
ty this year will rot in the fields, be-
cause the farmers cannot get it pick
ed out.
Nor is this loss confined to Sumter.
The same condition prevails in many
neighboring counties.
1t is a fact that there are many
81 cat hcluS VI COICOn WHICH OpSueu III
August and early September, in
which not pound of cotton has yet
been picked. A drive out of Ameri-
Gus on any one of dozen of the main
highways will convince one that this
statement is not overdrawn.
In many fields the ground is cover
ed over with open cotton that during
the past month has fallen from the
boil. The seed have sprouted and the
cottcn is now worthless. Stalks are
white from the bottom limbs to the
green top, the lower hollis dangling in
small ropes from the lower branches
to the ground. Already this cotton is
and stained and would,
at best, make but a poor sample. In
some fields here the cotton may never.
be picked out.
Labor is scarce, or not as plentiful
as conditions require and this fact,
with inability to sell any kind of cot
ton except the finest grades, is going
to result in the loss of thousands Of
bales in Sumter and this section.

SLATON WILL NOT
CALL LEGISLATURE
Especial to Times-Recorder.)

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct 12-Governoy
Slaton will not call special session
of the state legislature to pass laws
relative to curtailment of the cotton
crop, as urged by a great many ad
visers, as is indicated in a statement
given to the press. The governor says
frankly that he could not, as a law
yer, recommend the enactment of
laws compelling the farmer to curtail
his crop, and that he would not do as
governor what he could not indorse as
a private citizen.
Governor insists that the remedy for
the cotton situation is in the hands of
congress and not the states. He says
that it seems strange to him that the
peope who in campaigns exalt the far
mer as the most patriotic and intelli-
gent of men now insist that he has
not intelligence enough to cut his crop
down and that there must be laws
passed to make him do it.
