Georgia Cotton Crop is Short
One-Third-
Commissioner of A g r i c u lture
Hudson has returned from a week’s
trip over the state inspecting the
cotton crop.
According to the best reports and
conditions in the field. Mr. Hudson
estimates that the crop is short
about 33 1-3 per cent. He says:
"The South Georgia crop is prob
ably showing the most normal av
erage of any section of the state’
There is no doubt that the total
crop is about one third short. The
season would have undoubtedly
shown a larger decrease had it not
been for the exceptionally fine fall.'
