COTTON MEN URGE
HASTE IN PICKING
THE BIG 1919 CROP

Cotton men, who are the closest OBJ
servers OF the crop situation at this
season of the year, state that within
a radius of from SO to rs miles around
Ardmore, probably the finest crops in
the south are growing
This area would cover much OF
southern Oklahoma and northern Tex
as.
These men also state that dry wealth.
er is very desirable at this time, for
the reason that wider differences will
be made this year in the grades of cot
ton than in former years. While
high grade cotton is likely to go to
80 cents it would take but very little
damage, caused by rain to make the
price on the same cotton 25 cents
and 10 cents per pound reduction
would take off $50 from the value of
Il bale of cotton. For this reason they
urge all cotton growers to gather the
crop at as early date as possible.
Local cotton men also state that west
Texas has a very fine yield this year
and the lands there are turning out a
good grade of fibre.
In Carter county this year, the crop
situation has been somewhat remark.
able. Every crop grown has made a
good yield. This includes wheat, oats
corn, cotton, potatoes, fruit and ber
ries. The hay crop is also exception
ally heavy and vast quantities Of feed
are being stored in this section Of the
state.
The only dark spot on the horizon
of the producers is the low price that
is being paid for fat cattle. Some of
the stock men attribute the reduction
in price to the agitation that is being
carried on by the government against
the big packing concerns of the coun.
try.
Those who have herds of stock cat.
tie are doing well, but the dealers in
beef cattle are having hard shedding
and very poor show for profits dur
ing the year.
Cattle however are healthy and are
doing well in all sections Of this part
of the state.
