The example of what has been done,
when accentuated by the enormous
project of Ford at Muscle Shoals, will
not only induce other developments
in all parts of the South, but, as with
the power of vast magnet, will draw
to the South innumerable manufac-
turing plants Of all sorts.
The whole South ought to get be-
hind Mr.. Ford, and Mr.. Edison with
him, and assist to the uttermost to
see that he gets Muscle Shoals. The
investment will be worth incompara-
bly, more under private than under
public ownership, and worth incom-
parably more under the Ford direc-
ton, we believe, than under any 9th
er direction. While we believe that
Mr.. Ford is fundamentally wrong in
a number of the things he does and
says, there is none who can challenge
the actuality of his achievements. A
man who dreams dreams, he has the
ability and the resources to make
them real. The coming of Ford to the
South, with the vast enterprise he
contemplates, would mean infinitely
more in the immediate industrial de-
velopment of the South than any
thing else that can possibly happen.
It would be an event of world re-
nown, and in its influence on opinion,
on faith in the South and as a stimu-
lus to greater effort on the part of
all the forces now working for de-
velopment in the South, it would ex-

Whittlesey left on his berth were on

was 6.61 inches or 3.42 INCHES above
the normal for: June. Then lin Aug
ust, came a drought and extreme
heat, This on sappy stalk, withered
the plant. Days Of temperature as
high as 10 degrees made satisfac-
tory growth and fruitipg impossible.
In a few weeks all hope of a good
crop had to be abandoned. In some
sections West of the Mississippi Riv-
er barely one bale could be gathered
from twenty-five acres.
Boil Weevil:-Though each year
the boil weevil area has increased, a
vast enlargement occurred this sea-
son. Insects have now reached as far
North as the coast counties of North
Carolina -Pamlico and Brunswick
thus covering virtually the entire cot
ton belt. The open winter. late
spring, and far from vigorous cot
ton plant, all operated to produce
such swarms of weevil that ~felds
were infested as never before. Fears
are expressed that it. will be years
before the South can raise a good
cotton crop again, since every effort
of science has failed to invent means
for the determination of the pest.
The Importance of this subject as re-
CARDS future production has become
so prominent in the public mind that
next seasons prospects are already
under discussion.
In this connection We would point
out that all or none of the above
factors may operate in
1922. A larger acreage, increased
use of fertilizers and normal grow
ing season would remove the first
three. As to boil weevil, cold win
ter, an early or average spring and a
vigorous hardy plant next summer,
would assist in restraining weevil ac-
t;vity to proportions of previous years

JAY & COMPANY'S
1922 COTTON REPORT

A combination of. factors, two~of
them deliberately planned by the
Southern producer and two, vista
tions of nature, explain the short
cotton crop Of 1924 These four were
First, the reduction in acreage;'see-
ond, reduction in the use of fertili-
zer; third, bad weather and fourth
boil weevil. Inasmuch as they account
for the recent course of prices as
well as having an important bearing
on the future, we feel they are
worth considering in detail.
Reduction in Acreage:-With the
steady decline in prices from =. 40
cents to 10 cents a pound, and a
threatened carry-over Of nine orsten
million bales it became apparent that
drastic methods were necessary TO
avert an oversupply of cotton dis
astrous to the entire cotton industry.
If a second large crop We're to fol-
low the liberal yield Of 1920 price
would sink to level far below the
cost of production. Thoroughly arous-
ed to this. outlook, a vigorous cam
paign was waged during the early
months of the calendar year inst-
eating planters to cut acreage one
third or even half that Of the. pre-
vious seasons. Such success attended
the movement that the Department
of Agriculture placed the reduction
at 1a524,ooo acres or 2S.4 per cent.
trss.:.sing the total area under culti-
to 26,519,0Oo acres.
Reduction of Fertilizers:-But the
movement to raise a smaller crop
was not confined to the question OF
acreage. Both Intentionally and as
a result of lack of funds, purchases
of fertilizers were on greatly d.
minished scale. Reports to the vari-
Gus State Commissioners of Agricul-
ture, show that sales of fertilizers
were reduced to 2,854,ooo tons as
compared with 5,257,OOo tons the
previous year. The Department stat
ed that only about 65 per cent. OF
essential elements were used. this
year as compared with average sea-
sons. Had the lessened use Of fertili-
zers been confined to one season. re-
suits would have been less far reach
ling. But coming after the war period,
during which normal supplies Of pot
ash from Germany were interrupted
the soil had already been impover'
ished. AS result, the plant lacked
vigor, put on less fruit, and at the
same time became less able to with
stand insect depredations.
Weather:-Not only did the plant
obtain a late start, owing to a tardy
Spring, but June brought excessive
rainfall throughout the entire West
ern belt. The downfall in Texas a.
mounted to 1854 inches at one point
and nine places had from eleven te
fourteen inches of rain in one month
For the State as a whole, the average
