oD-CENT COTTON
PRODUCED LAST
YEAR in VALLEY
County Farm Agent Continue
es Effort to Induce Farm
ers to Plont Long Staple

County agent T. {. Richardson re-
ports the sale Of a bale Of Durango
cotton in Houston last week at 60c
per pound, or lSc above the ruling
price for lust cotton"
This cotton was grown in Cameron
county the past season, and earlier in
the season brought seven cents a
pound more than other cotton. Be
sides the extra price, Mr.. Richardson
states that in the test plats grown
under his direction this year, i'm CO.
operation with the state experiment
station, Durango made a higher yield
than any other in the tests.
This was shown in report pub
lished in The Herald some time ago,
since when number Of people have
expressed the intention Of planting
some Durango the coming season. and
a carload Of seed is now being made
up for this county.
please do not quote me rs saying
that we expect G0c for Durango or
any other cotton the coming season."
said Mr.. Richardson, "or that Duran
70 will always outyicld other vare-
ties. This season was an abnormal
one i'm many ways, and a one year
test proves nothing anyway, but if
We find after a series Of years that
long-staple cotton produces moro
money to the acre than a short sta
pie, then certainly we want to grow
a longer staple. There is one thing
certain-that the market il demand
ing a longer staple. and the margin
between it and the short staple has
been steadily increasing for the past
few years.
1T has been stated to me in this
county that the Houston and Calves
ton buyers would pay no more for
long staple than for short, but
through the county CHASING system
and the cooperative marketing serv-
ice Of the extension service Of the
A. < VI. College and the L. S. bureau
Of markets we have proven that the
better staple viii be bought on its
value when the grower knows what
he has and the buyer cannot take ad-
vantage cf the hog around system
Of paving practically the same price
for all cotton i'm given section Of
country.
II have been asked by number Of
people for advice on cotton planting
this season." continued Mr.. Richard
son. My advice is to plant less
acreage. plant better varieties, using
seed Of q pure strain as near 10 the
breeders plat as it can be had, plant
early, push cultivation and be fully
prepared with machinery and calci-
um arsenate for control of the boil
wcevH. Take into consideration the
I fact that Arizona and California are
going loco on cotton. that the entire
south will probably plant heavily this
wear: remember the shortage Of la
bor Of last season and that il is likely
/ 10 be worse this year, and don't plant
more than you are reasonably sure Of
being able to cultivate and poison
/ every week or ten days.
IF our people will act upon this
principle. have the cotton properly
cared for from picking to ginning.
classed BY county classer. and pro-
vide warehouse facilities for holding
il until ready TO sell. it will always
be a valuable part of any farm sys-
tenn in the Valley. But do not make
| il bonanza or a sole dependence.
