COTTON GROWERS N
-NEAVOR Of CHANGES
IN GINNING RULES

Walter Colbert, president of the Cot
ton Growers Association of Carter
County, has returned from Oklahoma
City where he attended meeting OF
the State Cotton Growers Association,
in session May 12. The meeting was
called by the corporation commission
for the purpose of regulating the gin
ming system in Oklahoma, which here
tofore has been very unsatisfactory 20
the cotton growers, in that cotton has
been ginned on seed basis. The associa-
ton asked that their cotton be ginned
on the lint basis. so much per hundred,
pei lint, and also aslged that each
farmers seed should be weighed sepa-
rately, on automatic scales.
There were more than hundred dele.
gates in attendance, representing every
cotton growing county in the state. A
committee comprising Mr.. Colbert, Guy
Green of Waurika; John Simpson of
Weatherford J. ID. Tosh. Hobart; j. NJ.
Kirk Fort Cobb, and j. a. Embry,
Chandler, was appointed to confer with
the corporation commission. The entire
assembly went on record as favoring
the adopting of changes in ginning regu'
lations in the state as follows: That
receptacle be supplied by the ginners TO
weigh the seed and waste: that all dirt
and foreign substance be separated from
the seed and kept separate; that the
bales be securely wrapped with good
quality of bagging, using standard ties.
and the ends of bales be covered and
Eewed; the regulation of speed with
(Which the gin must be run. (The staple
Is kinjured if gin is run too fast, and
We grade reduced. According to eX.
periments, $50 to 400 revolutions per
minute is the maximum speed for gins
for best resultsD
The above was in force by the United
States food administration and adopted
by several of the states this last year,
fixing the price of ginning on a lint
basis rather than on seed basis as in
force at present.
In the event that the price to be
charged for ginning be considered at
hearing. the following was suggested:
Ginning on a lint basis: That 60c per
cwt. be charged for picked cotton; zoe
per cwt, for snapped; soc per cwt for
bollies.
That the bagging and ties be stan
dard
That the ginner be allowed a profit of
10 per cent on the cost of bagging and
ties.
The assembly voted unanimously in
favor Of above, and also went on rec.
ord as favoring farmer ownership of
gins.
