Cotton Acreage in 1924

The one problem of absorbing inter
est to Southern farmers is the outlook
for the cotton crop of 1924. There
seems to be general belief that large
acreage will be planted. A decided in
crease in the price has almost always
resulted in an increased acreage. In
fact, this result can he counted on
without fail under normal conditions.
We planted the largest acreage in our
history I'm 1923, but had the spring
been favorable for cotton planting the
acreage would have much larger. 1t
is probable that under favorable
weather conditions the acreage planted
in 1923 would have reached 4O,OOO,OOO
acres. This increase along the north
ern border of the Cotton Belt, where
boil weevils have done but little dam
age, would have been very much great
er and there would also have been a
larger increase In the old Cotton Belt
had the weather been favorable for
early planting.
1t is only natural and, within certain
limits, right that, with boil weevils re-
ducing the yields over the greater part
Of the cotton growing area and prices
being high, the acreage should he in
creased and extended further north
along the northern borders of the belt
II is also natural and, within reason
able limits right, that with high prices
the acreage planted to cotton in the
regular cotton growing sections should
be increased. At least. this has al
ways been the tendency and the result
from high prices. II therefore follows
that if other conditions were normal
we might logically expect an increase
in the acreage planted to cotton in
1924.
But it is claimed by some that a
shortage of labor and the difficulty of
securing the necessary money for max
ing the 1924 cotton crop will cOunteract
the influence Of high prices and hold
the 1924 acreage to not more than that
planted in 1923. We believe the un-
Pocahontas star herald., 1924-01-18

favorable weather conditions in the
spring Of 1923 had a much larger in
hucnce in reducing the acreage planted
than will the shortage Of labor and
money in 1924. That is, if the spring
of 1924 is favorable for planting, we
believe the acreage planted to cotton
will he greater than in 1923. We have
ample labor to plant a larger acreage,
although the shortage of labor may
seriously interfere with the proper
cultivation and the picking of Il large
crop In other words, we have the
labor to plant larger acreage than we
can properly cultivate and harvest.
But in 1924 there is still another intlu-
ence which will tend to keep down the
cotton acreage In some sections. In
those parts of the belt where a defci-
ency of feed crops were planted and
the weevils were very destructive to
the cotton there will he disposition
to plant more feed and food crops and
risk less ON plunging to the limit on
cotton. In these sections not as much
cotton win be planted in 1924 as was
the intention to plant i'm 1923 had the
spring been favorable. But consider
ing all the facts, including the urge to
increase the acreage which always
comes from high prices and also all
the obstacles, including those mention
ed and all others, we still look for as
large a planting in 1924 as in 1923.
And If the weather is favorable there
will probably be considerable in
crease in acreage.
In estimating the probable acreage to
he planted in 1924 we must guard
against the popular prejudice against
increasing the cotton acreage and the
reluctance of farmers to admit the
full amount of any increase. In other
words, there is an ever present bias in
the mind of the South against an in
crease of the cotton acreage and in
favor Of increasing the acreage to corn
and other food and feed crops. This
always tends toward an underestimate
of the cotton acreage and an Overesti-
mate of the acreage in other crops.
Already the spectators and spinners
are industriously circulating reports
that the largest acreage possible will
be planted i'm cotton this spring. The
only check ON the influence of these
reports lies in the hands Of the cotton
farmers themselves. If it has been
their intention to increase the cotton
acreage they still have ample time to
revise their plans and at least hold
down the cotton acreage to some ex-
tent by increasing the acreage in feed
crops.-Progressive Farmer.
