GET GOOD
SEED CROP
Is ADVICE
County Agent Plans to Land a
Quantity of Good Cotton Seed
for Grady County; Hold
Meeting Later.

In an effort to standardize the va
riety of cotton raised in Grady
county and insure the planting of a
normal acreage, County Farm Agent
Owens is compiling plans for the
securing of quantity of high grada
seed for the Grady farmers.
Seed grown in the county last
year should not be used in planting
as preventative of the growing of
a poor grade of cotton, the county
agent urges In commenting on the
condition, Mr.. Owens said: 81 urge
that seed grown in Grady county
not be planted due to extraordinary
poor quality; the seed in this drouth-
stricken district is premature and
can produce only low grade of cot
ton. The oil mills of the state, fully
realizing the shortage of standard
seed, are securing Texas and Okla
hOma for usable planting products,
and are using them in the crushing
plants for the making of oil | am
now in position to furnish seed of
good qality to the farmers of the
county. But immediate action must
be taken due to limited stock
Meetings of farmers in the cotton
section of the county will be held
Immediately after the lifting Of the
Spanish influenza quarantine. At
these meetings, which will be at
tended by seed house representa-
tiyes, arrangements for the securing
of sufficient amount of desirable
seed will be made, thus insuring a
standard variety and the planting
of a normal acreage, it is planned
Government contracts for the man
ufacture of cotton cloth for soldier
uniforms and tents, call for cotton
of a staple length of one and one
sixteenth inches or more This rem
.ders the market for this class of cot
ton very active while the market
for shorter staple lags and the cot
ton brokers have considerable diff
ficulty in disposing of their short
staple crops.
The variety best adapted to yield
good crop in Grady county will be
determined at the farmers meeting
to be held after the flu quarantine
County Agent Owens believes the
STANDARD Seed plan will be sue
cessfully carried out in this county.
