Government Reports
100000 Bale Crop,
Worth $500, 900, 900

WASHINGTON, Dec. IA cotton
crop of more than five and a quarter
billion pounds, worth upwards of ST.
SOC, 10000 to producers for lint alone,
not taking into account the value
of Inter cotton and cotton seed, was
grown this year. Final estimate of
production made Thursday by the de-
partment of agriculture placed the
crop at 100000 equivalent 500
pound bales.
Much interest centered in the re-
port in view of the recent attack
on the last estimate of 1885, 900
bales made by the bureau Of crop
estimates early in October as being
too high and which resulted in a
resolution by congress causing the
issuance of an extra condition re-
port in November.
Today's estimate exceeds the Oc-
tober estimate by $4,000 bales. The
December estimate of the department
of agriculture, while not accepted as
the final production figures, mas
much as the census bureaus gaining
statistics issued in March are taken
as final, always has been remarkably
close to the actual production. Care
full checking of the estimate with
actual production has disclosed that
in the nineteen years from 1900 to
1919 the bureau Of crop estimates
December figures have averaged one
and four tenths per cent lower than
the census bureaus final production
figures

Trappers Should Ship Furs
Quickly for Good Profits

If you would make the most none!
possible from the furs you trap, con-
meet up with a reliable fur house
and ship furs away as you take them
instead of waiting to get big lot.
The really efficient trapper is the
man who keeps his furs going to the
market in a steady stream, from day
to day, and welcomes, for his pains,
a steady stream of checks in return.
The big advantages of shipping as
you trap are that you avoid conges-
ton, both at the scene of shipment
and at the market; get your money
more quickly and sell on a known
market rather than one that may
drop.
Most successful trappers ship their
furs away every week or two, but
a few novices follow the waiting
policy. That is they hoard their
skins and send them away in one
shipment.
This waiting policy is a costly one
because toward the end of the sea-
son the market prices on furs u.s.
ually drop. Seeasonable skins usual
ly sell better at the height of the
season because more of the buyers
are interested and they meet with a
ready sale.

possible failure of the poisoning
operation. If there are questions
not covered by the bulletin, inter
ested persons are invited to CORE
spend with the Delta Laboratory
Tallulah, La, where most of the ex-
perimental work has been done. The
specialists in charge there will give
the best advice possible to meet in
dividual conditions.
Three Types in Use
There are three types of machinery
now in use in cotton boil Weevi
poisoning. One is the hand-dust gun
another is a large machine mounted
on a four-wheel truck and operated
by an engine, and the third is an in
termediate type on two wheels and
operated by wheel traction. The
hand gun, the specialists say, is not
practicable except for very small
areas or in conjunction with power
machinery. The large machine has
been found to be too complicated for
the class of labor that must do most
of the work. Being very heavy
breakage is frequent, moving from
field to field is difficult and serious
delays are hardly to be avoided. The
wheel traction type of machine oh.
viates many of the difficulties OF
both the other types and appears to
be much the most promising md
chine for future use.

Control of the cotton boil weevil by
poisoning has been received so en-
Enthusiastically by farmers that, with
present facilities for dusting-ma-
chinery production, the demand can
not be met, according to specialists
of the United States department of
agriculture under whose direction the
poisoning system has been develop
ed. Every effort should be made,
they say, toward having as salts
factory as possible all machines that
are put out. ..
Information in Bulletin

partment, extending through several
years, with the various types of ma

operation, and, generally speaking,

apart. Then open q wide and deep
furrow and put in the two tons of
yard manure per acre. You may sup
plement this by the use of litter
from nearby woodlands which is
partly recayed. We would mix this
material with the soil and the work
should be done before the" lower
areas of the ground become too" wet,
We would bed over this material for
the sweet potato crop, giving the
vegetable matter added to the soil
as much time as possible to decay
during the winter months.
At or shortly before the time of
planting put the fertilizer in the
soil. You can bury it to fairly good
depth so that it will not coma in
contact with the ends Of the potato
slips as they are set in the row. l
suggest that you use not less than
500 pounds of 9-3.5-4 for this crop.
1 believe you would like to use as
much as per cent nitrogen where
the intention is to force the crop
to early growth and development. Ia
our experience the sweet potato crop
has proven a heavy user of phos-
phoric s,tid and potash, and while
the latter element is expensive and
probably difficult to obtain we are
inclined to think that it will pay you
to use as much as 4 per cent of it.
There is not much to choose between
the carriers of nitrogen. A part
Of this material might be made up
of nitrate of soda and the balance
OF sulphate of ammonia, blood tank
age or cottonseed meal. I would be
governed in the purchase and use of
heterogeneous elements for this crop
entirely by the cost. A formula of
the character suggested should suit
the type of soil you described very
well. This is a minimum rather than
a maximum application of plant food
to use under sweet potatoes.
- We believe. that by managing the
soil as indicated and fertilizing it in
the manner suggested you should be
able to secure good yield of pota-
toes of fine quality relatively early
in the season.

Farming in the Presence of the Boil
WeeVil

Farming in the Presence of the Boil
Weevil
In the old days we attempted to
cultivate two crops on the average
Georgia farm. These were cotton
and corn. Sometimes a few sweet
potatoes and a little truck were
Grown. Occasionally some land was
devoted to the production of peavine
and sorghum hay. Once in a while
a few hogs were maintained and pos
s1bly there was a COW or two. In
other words, we did not emphasize
crop rotation or diversification, nor
were we then regarded as one of the
leading live stock states in the IN
ion.
Presenting that a man had as much
as so acres of land, whether he were
owner or tenant, the type of prac-
tlce we used to follow would be about
as indicated below. At least 20 acres
of this land would be devoted to
cotton, and very likely cotton was
grown on the same area year after
year. If there happened to be a
low lying section of land on the
farm, such as a creek bottom pro-
Vides, corn was regularly grown
thereon until the land rebelled. By
this practice if n disease were intro
duced on the farm it was intenS'-
