South Has Grow Rival

B. c. Forbes tells you something
new ard important about California,
and that Golden Southwest" Nine
years ago California produced only
10000 bales of cotton, and Arizona
less. In 1920 California Arizona and
the Imperial Valley in Mexico pro-
duced 25O,0OO bales. Los Angeles
harbor shipped $4,000 bales in 1920,
shipped 10,088 bales in 1921, and will
ship 10000 bales this year: $4,000
bales went to Japan.
The long, dry growing season makes
the boil weevil harmless in these re-
gions. And of l2.500000 acres good
for cotton, only $4,000 acres have
been used so far. Whol will that crop
be in years to come? And where car
YOU set limit to wealth possibilities
of that part of America?
California goes at things in thu
right, modern way. While grower
produce the cotton Los Angeles pro
vides a high density cotton compress

minute. That is the way to meet for
eign competitior-with greater eff

Rugs and Coverets Made
By Southern Farm Women

The beautiful old art of making
pulled" or hooked rugs is being
revived in Arkansas and Mississippi
by rural women who are anxious to
increase the family income. The in
dustry is one which was started among
the farm women and girls themselves,
and wherever possible il is being
spread and encouraged by extension
agents. A representative of the Unit
ed States De artment of Ag'ricul-
ture on field trip recently saw one
one woman near Little Rock who
sold many of her small pulled rugs
made from her own designs of flowers
and forest leaves for as much as $l2
each. Several other women were do
rg similar work under her instruc-
ton, and all seemed to be succeed
ing in making extra money by this
work
In another part of the state an ole
loom, brought over from England l5(
years ago, was seen The woman
who owned it not only used it Il
weave rugs but also made beautiful
woven wool coverlets of unusual de
signs, showing rot little ingenuit!
/ in making up new patterns. She, too
was teaching others in her communi
/ ty to make rugs and coverlets,
In addition to pulled and woveI
rugs, many of the popular rag rug
are made. including the braided an
crocheted types Cray quilts" an
counterpares of applique work ar
also being revived in addition to tn
beautiful woven wool counterpanes.
