ARGENTINA FAVORS
COTTON MACHINERY
Pickers Held Best Method for
Country With Reputed

By the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Aug l5.-The Ma
tional Cotton Board of Argentina is
recommending adoption of mechan-
cal cotton picking methods to boost
that country's cotton production, the
Argentine Information Bureau an
nounced here.
THE board considers that short
age of labor will soon be experienced
in the cotton plantations and that
picking machines will not lead to I'M
employment inasmuch as the sown
area will be greatly increased in zones
where the population is relatively
sparse" cable received by the bu-
reau said.
1T is pointed out by the Cotton
Board that in the provinces of SAM
tiago del Estero and Corrientes, which
have hitherto provided most of the
labor, paintings have been extended
and large proportion of the work.
men have either become planters
themselves or are exclusively employed
in picking work in their own districts"
the cable continued.
when sowings reach about 1,500,-
600 acres it is expected that the Short
age of labor will become problem
and that the mechanization of the
harvest work would provide solu-
ton. Tests with a modern mechani
cal picker at an experimental station
at Rogue Saenz Pena, in the Chaco
region, were an outstanding success,
demonstrating that the picker was
admirably adapted to local conditions"
