LOW.PRICED COTTON SEED.

Answering letter from the
Progressive Farmer asking ad-
vice as to how farmers should
deal with the present distressing
ly low price of cotton seed, Sec.
Harvie Jordon, of the American
Cotton Association writes.
There are two methods of
meeting the present cotton seed
situation by the farmers namely:
l. Store the seed cotton in bulk
on the farm and postpone ginning
to a later date, say 60 days. The
lint fibre will improve in length
and texture and gain considerably
in weight, while the seed will not
damage unless the bulk of seed
cotton lis packed to tight. Some
of the largest and most success
full cotton farmers in this State
build small frame cotton houses
in the cotton fields holding from
four to six bales of cotton, and
never think Of ginning a bale be-
fore January, or until the picking
for the season has been complet-
The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1920-10-14

ed. They never have any trouble
about heated seed and gain ire
mendously in weight and market
value of the lint. Under this plan
all of the labor is kept busy pick
Ing the crop during the busy sea-
son and valuable labor is not kept
out of the field hauling to the
gins.
"This is the best economic and
protective plan for the farmers to
adopt in order to counteract the
depression in price of cotton seed
and lint cotton which is usually
encountered at the opening of the
season."
2. IF the seed cotton must be
ginned, the seed can be hauled

Mr.. Jordon, Mr.. Murph writes:
in the seed and you ask my opin-
1T is noted that you have made
practice of storing your cotton
ION as to whether farmers gener-
ally should be advised to follow
this plan. Experiments have
been conducted to determine the
practicability of storing cotton in
the seed, Mr.. Brand, formerly
Chief of this Bureau, arrived at
the conclusion this was most de-
sirable practice. He found out
that If cotton was properly stored
IN the seed it dried out so as to
permit more satisfactory GIN
ming: the seed also dried out and
was of better quality than when
ginned shortly after picking. The
experiment referred to indicated
definitely that there was a dis
tlnct advantage in storing seed
cotton for several weeks before
ginning. This seemed to result in
an improved quality of seed and
lint. Another advantage-it en-
abled the farmer to devote all of
his time to picking during the
rush season and enabled him to
have the cotton ginned and han
ole the seed at a time when he
was not so urgently needed on the
arm. Of course, storing of cotton
IN the seed must be done, if at all. |
under correct conditions in order
to prevent damage by heating.

The Facts of the Telephone
Situation in Mississippi
By Errs
TELEPHONE & TELEGRAPH COMPANY
Why Telephone Material Is So Scarce

This was true even during the period
Wnen the Government was in possession
and control Of the telephone properties Of
this country.
The greater part Of the available tele.
phone equipment and materials was sent to
france, none of which was ever returned.
On August LIST, 1919, when the telephone
properties were returned to the owners by
the United States Government, the avail
able supply Of equipment and material was
so small and the needs of the telephone
companies in this country so great, that all
the telephone factories in the United States,
working day and night, could not within
three years have furnished the equipment:
and materials necessary to restore the ia
cllltles to the pre-war status.
The equipment and material required by
this Company to complete it's 1920 con-
structlon program, will equal 1,4OO car
loads of freight, averaging 10000 pounds
to the car, hauled from different parts Of
this country and delivered at hundreds Of
places IN the five states in which the Com
pany operates. This is equal to thirty-five
trains of an average of forty cars per train,
or $4,000 tons of materials.
Every business man knows what this
means.
Freight shipments from the industrial
centers OF the North and East ordinarily
were delivered within two or three weeks:
now much longer time is required
The Western Electric Company is the
largest manufacturer of telephone equip.
ment and materials in the world. It has
representatives in all the markets of the
world. 1t buys its raw materials in vast
quantities at the lowest possible prices.
The Western Electric Company furnishesf
this Company with the bulk of it's equip-s
n1ent and materials and acts as our Supplvy
Agent.
1t did not accept any contracts from any
foreign government prior to the date the
United States entered the war and only
than at the instance of the United States
Government. It thus held itself in readi-
ness to serve at its maximum efficiency the
needs of the telephone industry in this
country.
1t has capacity for much larger out
put, but strikes, shortage of productive la
Dor, lack of fuel and shortage of transpor-
tation, facilities affecting the securing Of
adequate raw materials-has curtailed its
output.
We have not relied entirely on the West.
ern Electric Company, but have placed or
ders with other manufacturers where they
could promise deliveries. Each manufac-
turer with whom we have placed orders is
confronted with the same problems in Sc
curing his supply of raw materials.
In the face of all these difficulties the
manufacturers are turning out in excess Of
what was their normal output.
the increased costs of labor and material

The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1920-10-14

The telephone material supply situation
IS always one of factory capacity labor,
raw materials and transportation.
Prior to August, 1914, the supply of raw
materials; the manufactured output; labor
and transportation, was adequate AS
result prices were low and deliveries
prompt.
From June, 1916, to April, 1917, (when
this country entered the wary prices aver
aged an advance of nearly 100 per cent and
deliveries became intolerably slow.
, Raw materials for telephone purposes are
obtained from all parts of the world.
Platinum, used in switchboards, came
from Russia
Silk, used in vast quantities for insulat-
ing wires, comes from Japan.
Old MANILA rope, used in making paper
for insulating wires in cables, comes from
the wharves of the world.
Diamonds, used in drawing out fine wire
Tor use in switchboards, came from Europe.
Many other illustrations could be given.
These foreign sources of raw materials
supply were eliminated during the period
OF the European war and are now far be-
low normal.
Lead, copper, iron and tin, used in large
quantities in the manufacture of telephone
equipment and materials, are also essential
for the making Of munitions. The war
greatly reduced the available amount of
raw materials and Iessened the telephone
manufacturers production
Strikes in industrial centers which fur
nished the raw materials, and strikes and
cmbargoes on railroads essential to trans
portation of both raw materials and the fin
1shed products, are prime factors in the
present shortage in telephone materials and
facilities.
The factories of our suppliers have ca
pac1ty for much larger output, but strikes,
shortage of productive labor, lack of fuel,
shortage of transportation facilities and
embargoes affecting the sources of raw ma
terials, have greatly interfered with their
possible output
Today, with prices higher than war
prices, the demand greater than ever
known, current production is far lass than
the demand, being approximately 40 per
cent below the average, with deliveries slow
and uncertain.
In the. face of this condition the demand
for telephone service has increased and con-
ttnues to increase enormously
TO meet this demand all available sur
plus facilities and materials were gradual
ly but constantly put.into use.
When the United States entered the war
In 1917, the Government needs were, of
course, given precedence and only a small
part Of the available raw materials manu-
featured from that date until the SIGNING
Of the armistice was allotted to telephone
companies

SHOULD BE HELD SACRED

Much bad feeling has been created
between the vets and the drys over
the method OF enforcing the federal
prohibition law, IL seems that In
many cases prohibition agents have
been foroibly entering homes and
selling such liquor as they could find.
Now the courts In some cases are
ruling that no agent can enter a
mans home without due process OF
law. and much liquor illegally seized
has been returned to It's owners, Re-
gardless OF the merits of the wet and
dry issue, or any other issue, mans
home Is his castle and should be
held sacred from invasion at the
whim OF any person on suspicion.
There Is due process of law proyid-
ed for the searching of suspected
house, and that law should be re-
spected. 10 sanction otherwise would
be to subject every home in the land
