COUNTY AGENTS ITEMS
". I. kcKELl, County Agent

A. M. Odom, Cotton Marketing
Specialist, spent Monday of last
week with County Agent McKell.
Plans are on foot to help the far
mers who planted Express cot
ton to pool their crops. A meet
ing of all farmers with Express
cotton for sale will be held at the
court house in Selmer on Satur-
day afternoon, August 18th. Mr..
Odum will be present at that
time to explain the methods
adopted. We will also have to
! elect a sales committee to have
charge of the sale. Those farm
ers who will have cotton of a
variety that will staple 1 inch or
better can place their cotton in
the pool if they like. This in
cludes Cleveland Big Boil, Millers,
Arcala and few others.
