All. BOYS GET GOOD
PRICE FOR COTTON

Statesville, Jan. 3.-North Caro-
lina's cotton crop was unusually short
in 1888, but you would never know it
by looking at the records made by 80
Iredell County All Club boys. They
made an average yield which was
nearly 70 percent above the county
average for the past 10 years.
]. w. Fou, assistant Iredell county
farm agent, says the All Club mem
bers produced 29972 pounds of lint
cotton on SO acres, or an average yield
of sos pounds per acre. This cotton
sold for 20 cents per pound, which
meant a premium of one-half cent a
pound over cotton with shorter staple :
length.
