not less than the loan price. Not
only will, you receive as much
or more cash from the loan but
you, as a producer, will continue
to own the cotton and If the
price should advance It could be
sold for . profit. Ask your ginner

United States, Of which Missis-
sippi had 1904. In 1852, Missis-
sippi had only 979 active gins, and
even fewer are expected to oper-
ate during the current ginning
season.
The trend in recent years has
been toward fewer but larger and
more modern gins such as the
new Farmers Gin Company. Some
experts predict that within the
next five years 500 such gins will
be handling all the cotton raised
in Mississippi.
Dryer Speeds Output
A vital factor in today's faster
ginning methods has been the
Cotton Dryer, recently perfected
and now universally used in all
modern gins. Prior to the Cotton
Dryer, staple was picked late in
the morning after the sun had
dried out moisture in the lint, or
spread out under sheds before
ginning. Today, however, cotton
is picked and ginned with little
concern for moisture, which is
rapidly and effectively removed
by the Cotton Dryer.
Modern Cotton Dryers are
available for various types Of fuel,
including natural gas. butane,
electricity and diesel oil. Studies
conducted by the Delta Expert
mental Station at Stoneville Of
several gins handling a 1000 bale
average Per teason indicate that
gas equipment dries . bale con.
siderably cheaper than competi-
tive drying methods.
Thus the nswly- completed
Farmers Gin Company at Ed
wards. which Is now In full oper-
alton, can lay claim to being one
Of the most modern and fully
equipped gins in the entire United
States. This progressive concern
serves many cotton growers in
the prosperous western Kinds
area. -sf
F. N. Pickett is manager Of the
firm and L. F. Angelo serves as
president. Other officers include
v. l.. Montgomery, vice president;
c. L. Buford, director, and S. Y.
Upper, Jr., secretary. j. c. Logan
is gin operator and has recently
had special factory training to
thoroughly familiarize h i'm self
with the new gas engines, gas
dryers and other modern equip
ment.

SoYbeans

ooYDednS
Soybeans should be combined
direct from the standing plant.
The pods should be fully matured
and the beans dry.
While soybeans can be COM
bined at moisture contents of II
per cent and higher, they are not
safe for storage with a moisture
content of higher than 1875 per
cent. Most soybean elevators
have equipment for making the
moisture test. .
Here is a rough "rule of the
thumb" test that you can use in
the field" The pods should be
dry enough to split open when
squeezed between your thumb
and fore finger. Dry beans will
crack all the way through when
you bite them. II the beans are
cheesy. you can be pretty sure
that the moisture content is too
high. ~ ~ ,es,. -
Check your soybean crop and
for highest and best yields. COM
bine when the. beans are at the
proper stage OF maturity. We
have a moisture testing. machine
in our office and will be glad to
run a moisture test on anyone's
beans to determine whether or
not they are dry enough to CON-
bine. Bring about one quart Of
beans from, your combine to the
office and in one minute we are
able to run the moisture test.
Combine Cautions: Keep all
safety shields in place when op-
Grating the combine. Do not al
low riders, especially children, on
the combine. Always stop power
take-off before lubricating or ad-
justing the combine. Wear fair
ly tight fitting clothing when
working with the combine. Loose
sleeves, pockets, and ragged or
long fingered gloves may get
caught in the moving parts. Re-
member, it is better to be safe
than sorry.
Grassworms: Keep close
watch for grassworms in oats or
anv young tender winter grazing
that may be up or coming up
soon. Grassworms are appear
ing over the state and are DOING
considerable damage to oats and
other grass already up. You will
have to keep a close watch until
we have heavy frost, Grass
worms can destroy an oat field in
very short time. Thev NAV be
killed by using 10 to IL pounds
Of 10 per cent DOT dust or II to
IS pounds Of 40 per cent toxa
phene.
Marketing Cotton
Reports are coming to this
office that some of our cotton
producers are selling cotton for
less than the loan value. If this
be true we feel that it is because
Of a lack of knowledge on the
producers part on the loan value
OF their cotton. It seems to me
that it is not good business for

King Cotton Finds An Able
Servant in Natural Gas

King Cotton has useful and
dependable servant in Natural
Gas, as evidenced by the fact that
more and more Mississippi cotton
gins are modernizing their oper
atoms with low-cost, efficient gas
engines and dryers.
Typical Of this trend is the new
and thoroughly modern Farmers
Gin Company at Edwards which
has just gone into operation fol-
lowing its recent heavily attended
formal opening. This newly COM
pleted structure replaces an out
NODDED building destroyed by fire
last year.
The new gin not only utilizes
the latest type of gas engines and
gas dryer equipment, but is also
completely fire-proof. 1t is built
of galvanized iron with all-con-
crete floors.
Modern Gas Engine
Equipped with new 350-horse-
power, l2-cylinder natural gas
engine. the Farmers Gin Com
pany is capable of producing 100
bales Of cotton q day. Officials
expect to gin maximum Of 5000
bales during the current 1853 sea-
con. sat
The new Edwards gin, one Of
the finest in the South, can gin a
bale Of cotton, bind it and deliver
the processed bale to the loading
platform within six minutes after
the lint cotton goes up the intake
pipe. The gin has scales of 50-ton
capacity which will weigh the
biggest load Of cotton a truck or
tractor can deliver.
Gin engines operated with nat
ural gas. such as that at the Ed
wards enterprise, are compare
lively new in Mississippi but are
rapidly attaining popularity due
to their unusual efficiency and
economy of operation. Studies in
dictate that gas-fired engines cost

HERE AND
TN RE

The recent story from Paris
about the disappearance from a
convent of two orphaned Jewish
children after a court order di-
rected their return to relatives in
Israel is a grim reminder of a
problem that has been much neg
lected. This column has often
drawn attention to the situation,
only to be rebuffed by Jewish
'klal-tuers" who fear to tread
where the church is involved.
There are still hundreds and per-
haps thousands of Jewish chill
dren that can be rescued from
Christian homes and institutions
if only there were holder action
Some seven or eight months
ago this column revealed the
existence of anti-Jewish gang
sterism on New York's East Side,
once a Jewish bastion and still
thickly populated Jewish area.
We pointed out at the time that
Jewish children were not safe
alone, that youngsters leaving
yeshivas or Hebrew schools had
been attacked by juvenile and
adult ruffians, that there had been
incidents of beard-pulling and
that Jewish women walking alone
on the streets had been abused.

Dear Homemaker:
Saw most of you over at the

enjoyed those games. Sportsman
ship was at high level! Good
job, kids and parents!
Last week found us devoting a
good portion of our time to state
home demonstration activities, by
serving on a State Committee dis
cussing and ironing out problems
Of Home Demonstration Clubs,
| really feel like l have some very
valuable information to pass on
to the officers and councillors of
our organized home demonstra-
ton clubs in the county. Let's not
forget that date sometime in
March,
The All Advisors Council met
Friday making plans for the ad-
visors banquet to be held in
March. The date was tentatively
set as March 10Th, but seems as
if we will have to change that
date if We expect to have a GER
tain speaker. Anyway, you will
hear about it soon! Plans for the
summer were also discussed.
Better watch the market this
spring for the unveiling OF
''E-que-53,"a moth-proofing pro
duct. 1t ipsures that woolen come
out of the wash not only clean
but safe against the attack OF
fabric pests. E-que-53 is mixture
of DDT and other chemicals. A
homemaker can mothproof her
blankets, sweaters and washable
woolens by pouring a few spoon
fuls of the solution into the wash
ing machine first. 1t may also be
added during or after rinsing
Tests show that it is necessary to
to use very little, that it will pro-
tect against larva of both clothes
moths and carpet pests for more
than a year Above all, it will be
low in cost and safe to use
Sounds good, let's watch for it!
