Prison Farm Cotton Figures

Prison farm cotton figures as given by Gen. Mgr
w. Il. Mead should appeal to the Texas taxpayers.
Cotton yield Of the farms will drop from 300 bales in
1923 to approximately 5000 bales this year. This VIII
mean az 1871 cents the cotton crop viii yield about
s2F7, 500. as compared with s7Ss,oOO for the crop Of
1928. or less than one-third the revenue Of that year
Ii 1926 the prison system ran approximately $780,
600 behind its cost Of operation This despite the
excellent cotton crop Of the year and the higher
pr.ces than viii be obtained for the crop Of 1929.
Mgr. Mead credited the two-thirds failure OF the
cotton crops to spring floods that overflow much OF
The prison lands. Now why should the prison farms
he continued in the overflow districts Why should
Tho farmers Of Texas be taxed for the upkeep Of q
system that has been a disastrous failure for years
and years?
This for the lawmakers and this for the people
who pay the freight.
