Cotton Crop Cut
To 1000 Bales
Is New Estimate

Carl Russell. OF the Russell Seed
company estimates the cotton crop has
been cut sixty per cent within the
past month ON account of dry weather.
HIS prediction today In that Carter
county will not produce over 1000
bales this season. whereas a month ago
the crop gave promise of nearly twice
that figure.
MIR. Russell says that good rain
within the next week would stimulate
the crop to quite an extent as the
stalks in many places still remain Wig
orous and would develop large bolls
The weevil has not injured the crop
this season 10 much as dry weather
has, Mr. Russell thinks.
