COTTON BLOOMS
OUT NCOLQUITT
=
Crop Generally Much Earlier
Than Heretofore-Race To
Beat Weevil

M0ULTRIE, May t.--W. E. Ne
Laughlin, Colquitt county farmer,
yesterday brought to Moultrie a stalk
of cotton that has several blooms on
it He stated that he had twenty
acres planted early in April and that
the whole field would be in bloom
within . week. lie expects to gin
a bale before the end Of June.
The cotton crop throughout the
Moult1ie territory is earlier than it
has been in number of years. Most
farmers planted in March and since
the advent of the boil weev: only
early varieties of seed are used. The
object of this is to get a cotton that
viii mature before the wet weather
begins in late July and early August.
1t is ST. ted ahat when the fields are
too wet nothing Can be done TO stay
the ravageS Of the boil weevil. Cen
sus figures show that in no other
county in the state is more cotton
grown per acre under boil weevil con-
diuons than - Colquitt county, al
though this has never been what could
be called a big cotton county, ITS
biggest production being just a lit
tie over $4,000 bales in 1914. The
crop has averaged around $4,000
bales for four years. The acreage,
however, given to cotton is not as
large as it was before the advent of
: the boil weevil.
An increasing number of farmers
are each year turning from cotton
altogether, finding there is more
profit in live stock, dauying, and in
the production of melons, cantel-
oupes, corn and tobacco.
