TO GROW COTTON IN PANAMA.
Experiments Indicate That Superior
Quality Can be Raised on IsthmuS.
philadelphia Public Ledger. -


John II. Harrcll. a cotton planter
from North Carolina, has Just dem
'Onstrated to the satisfaction of the
Panama government that a long fibre
GDttOn can be grown on Panama soil.
Negotiations are pending for Il con-
ccssiOn of 5000 acres on which to
grow the staple on a large scale. For
more than a year Mr.. Ilarrcll has
been experimenting on small plot
Of ground at Balboa, the Pacific end
Of the Panama Canal.
On his experimental farm he has
grown cotton that has fibre from two
and Onc-half to four inches long,
which is said to he longer than the
cotton generally grown in the United
81 atcS. The texture is also finer and
more silky than any other cotton.
The cotton here is the result Of
crossing the native wild cotton with
that grown in North and South Caro-
lima. According to government
test made recently, the cotton tested
80 per cent lint. Mr.. Harrell be-
lieves that a a result Of hybridiza-
GlOn he will be able to produce an
'everbearing variety, which will pro-
GuCe one crop in December and ano-
tiHer in July, just before the rainy
season begins IN earnest.
