New Ideas Suggested
In Culture of Cotton

4 Shreveport friend and subscriber
has sent In Il clipping from Sundays
issue of the Shreveport Times that
tells about new ideas in the cultivation
Of cotton and the remarkable yields in
another state. The article is based on
an interview with Mr.. r. w. Marston,
jr., known to many Of the Banners
readers. 1t has long been the writer's
impression that Mr.. Marston is sue
cessful cotton farmer and we rather
suspect many other Bossierites hold a
like view, SO. as our Shreveport friend
suggests. the article will no doubt he
read In the Banner with interest. It
follows:
There Is at least one place in the
South where land il worth as much as
$100O per acre. and it is interesting to
note that few short years ago this
same soil differed in no essential from
the hill lands located around Shreve-
port. according to B. W., Marston, jr.
who has just returned from trip to
Florence. S. G. They speak of their
valuable acreage in the states OF In
tliana and Illinois" said Mr.. Marston,
but in the Piedmont section of South
Carolina is found the most valuable
farm land Of any state of the union,
except certain parts of California.
A million dollars was given away
last year by one Of the faremrs in this
section Of the country to college for
girls. He made the money from soil
TINT formerly could be bought for as
low as IS per acre.
The Bossier banner. [volume] (Bellevue, Bossier Parish, La.) 1859-1952, 1920-09-09

This Piedmont section is considered
to he the acme of cotton land of the
entire South. and l believe without
doubt that the cultivation of cotton has
been developed to such point in this
section, that it will be difficult indeed
to surpass.
!" This country is poor hill land with
a growth of pine timber on it. very
similar to our hill sections in North
Louisiana, and was told that ten or
fifteen years ago these lands could be
bought for an average of around s.
Per acre, but at this time they are sell
ing at between $500 and $1,000 per acre
in an improved state of cultivation.
8 | saw one plot of cotton of eight
acres that produced last year yield of
tcwenty-two bales and this year it was
said to be equally as good as last year.
II saw another farm of $50 acres
that last year yielded 80 bales of
cotton. and I was told that the entire
yield in Marlborough County last year
was one and one-eighth bales per acre.
Red River planters who remember
the heavy yield of cotton we used to
have on Red River, when our front
sandy lands were fresh and before we
had any weevils, will have some idea
of the yield of cotton they are making
in South Carolina at this time; and
when it is considered that these Yields
are being made on poor, sandy, hill
land, it is indeen a revelation to any
one interested in cotton growing.
These heavy yields are made and
maintained principally by the scientific
use of fertilizer. They have learned
what their soils need and they apply
an average of one thousand pounds OF
fertilizer per acre, which costs them
on an average of $40 per acre. Tile
| most important factor of their heavy
yield. however, l consider to be in their
selection Of cotton seed.
| " There is one man in South Caro-
lima who is given the credit for improv-
ing the variety Of cotton seed for the
whole state, and this man whose name
is Coker is indeed a Burbank in that
section OF the country He has his
seed farm Of 800 acres where he has
developed eighty-five varieties of cot
ton, and after years of elimination and
selection made each year he is allie t.
turn out an improved variety of seed
The Bossier banner. [volume] (Bellevue, Bossier Parish, La.) 1859-1952, 1920-09-09

over his old variety. The visitor will
see thousands Of acres Of cotton with
absolute uniformity in height, no stalk
an inch higher or lower than other
stalks in the entire fields, proving con-
clusively how true he had bred to Il
type, while every stalk seems to lie
fruited exactly alike. with no sterile
stalks, as we have here iii our Louis
lana cotton fields. believe we have
allowed our cotton seed here in Louis
lana to run down without knowing it.
i believe, too, that it would be well
worth any mans time and money to 60
to South Carolina for no other season
than to observe this one thing.
{ II we could make yield of cotton
in Louisiana as far up the cotton stalk
as the wecvils will allow us, frllited as
closely as it is in South Carolina, our
yield would he three times as much as
it is now. and | believe that we can do
this very thing by the right selection
of our cotton seed.
s 1t may be interesting to our plant
ers here to know that in South Carolina
all of their lands are worked with
negro labor. just the same as we have
here. and that the hands only receive
one-third of the cotton made on the
land. and none of the seed. This is an
old system that has been i'll custom
there for long time
On this trip | was invited by the
fertilizer men to attend convention
they were holding In that part of the
country for the benefit of cotton grow
ers in Louisiana. East Texas and Ark
ansas sections. These men were all de-
lighted with their trip and what they
saw. and | honestly believe it would
be worth untold amounts to any of our
cotton planters here to 90 up therf
and see what they are doing and get a
new vision to farm by in the future

There are seven quotations from the

introduced by Il passage from Malachi
!" Have we not all one Father. Hath

CITRUS FOOT ROT.
Kemedial Measures Should be Taken
at First Indications.

Foot rot is common in the old seed
ing sweet-orange groves throughout
Florida. 1t is a bark disease and be-
! gins in the crown or main roots about
the surface of the ground in small
! areas of decayed bark from which
there is a slight oozing of gum. This
decayed bark has at first a water
soaked appearance, and watery
gum is usually found beneath it.
The diseased portions spread up
ward, downward and around the
tree, sometimes practically girdling
it.
The cause of this disease has long
been in doubt. 1t is considered in
fictitious, that is capable of being
spread, and recent Investigations by
experts at the Florida Experiment
station indicate that it is a fungus.
Foot rot may be controlled if re- |
medal measures are taken in time |
Groves should be occasionally in
spected for it. Once or twice during
the year the crown and main roots
should be examined, and, if the dis
ease is present, treatmnt should be
applied at once. Remove the soil
rom about the crown and base roots
so as TO expose all infections. Cut
away all diseased bark and destroy
t. Some antiseptic should be ap-
died to the wounds. Crude carbolic
'cid diluted to half strength with
oapy water is good for disinfecting.
n addition, paint the crown, ex-
'osed roots and trunks of affected
rees with a wash of air-slaked lime |
nd powdered sulphur and sufficient
water to make mixture that can be /
upplied easily with a brush. The c
runks of the trees may be painted
S high as two or three feet above c
he ground. l
1t is advisable to leave the crown Il
nd roots exposed for several weeks, n
there is no danger of injury from p
old, in order that the surrounding "a
oil may be dried out. Treated trees IL
Mould be inspected often for new ~
utbreaks, and attended to as soon n
) infection appears. County agents II
