BOYS COTTON CLUB
IN NEWTON COUNTY
SETS HIGH AVERAGE

CONVICTION, Ga, Nov. 8.-Forty
four bales of cotton were sold here
last week by the members of the
Newton County Boys Cotton club
and a price averaging a tWo-cent
premium over the market at that
time was received for each bale
n. S. Turner, president Of the Gov
ington Cotton mills, bought the cot
ton, his bid being the highest at an
auction sale of the entire A bales.
Under the direction Of County
Agent C. w. Robinson, 66 boys ell.
rolled in the Cotton club. Several
failed to keep records and were
counted out. However, the remain
ing SO boys completed the project,
and produced on SO acres, SO bales
of cotton averaging 450 pounds each.
Some of the boys sold before auc-
ton day.
Leonard Davis Champion
Leonard Davis, twelve years old,
was the champion of the county. On
his acre he produced 1928 pounds
of seed cotton. giving 725 pounds of
lint, and it is estimated that he has
at least 100 pounds of cotton yet
to pick. The lowest yield produced
on a club acre was 27S pounds of
lint cotton, and this low yield was
due to very poor stand.
All of the boys worked faithfully.
The Davis boy worked in his cotton
both day and night. One night he
went out to dust his cotton by moon
light. he stayed so long that his
family became uneasy and began a
search. Leonard's father found the
little man fast asleep. He lacked
two rows of having the cotton all
busted when the sand man" over
powered him.
The Atlanta Chemical company,
through Troy G. Chastain, vice
president, furnished SO boys 600
pounds Of 1903, ~ bushels of Col
lege No. l cotton seed and 1914
pounds of calcium arsenate. E. E.
