As we sow so shall we reap. If we
are to plant cotton that will bring the
biggest returns at harvest time, then
we must plant cotton that has the in
herited ability to produce an abundance
Of quality lint.
No matter how much one may fer
tilize and cultivate, if the cotton is in
ferior the yield will be limited and the
quality inferior. But if one plants seed
that have been selected for high yield
ing superior lint, then the fertilizer and
the cultivation will have a full chance
to bring results.
Under boll weevil conditions, the
yield per acre is an important consid
eration. Added expense incident to
fighting the boll weevil, can be met only
.With greater yields per acre. This is
to be attained in every possible way,
but principally by liberal fertilization
•nd good seed.
But do not make the mistake of over
looking length of lint while attempting
to get greater yields per acre. North
Georgia has suffered from this over
fight. It is not only the yield, but the
length of lint that determines the re
turns from the cotton crop. A big yield
Of short lint per acre may not return
fs much as a smaller yield of a longer
lint. What you, as a farmer, want is
the most money you can get from each
%cre you plant.
Don’t hesitate another day to get good
planting seed. Order standard inch
to an inch and sixteenth staple cotton
seed from reliable sources.
In the interest of better paying lint
and in order to restore North Geor
gia’s lost ground as a producer of inch
to an inch and sixteenth staple, the
Atlanta Commercial Exchange is offer
ing, without cost for its service, to sup
ply or put farmers in touch with other
farmers or other sources of desirable
planting seed.
It will be a splendid money making
proposition for farmers to get together
in a community and grow only one va
riety of desirable cotton. It means
pure seed which can be sold for plant
ing purposes at high prices. There is
a market for unmixed, pure seed of va
rieties yielding an inch to an inch and
sixteenth staple, that will take a good
deal of seed in North Georgia for the
next few years.
City and country bankers are helping
this movement for better cotton in
North Georgia. They are assist’ ig in
organizing community groups o f . farm
ers to order good seed. See your bank
er and co-operate with him in this un
dertaking.
Your county agent or the specialists
of the College of Agriculture are ready
to assist in this mover The col
lege has launched communities Into
growing pure seed sod is anxious to
assist the Atlanta Commercial Ex
change, bankers, leading farmer* and
others who realiz the importance of
this movement, tr bring about a better
Condition throughout North Georgia.
Attention is called to a recent bulletin
Issued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture regarding the su
perior charajter and staple of ACALA
Cotton, which is of the old North Geor
gia type, for which the mills are pay
ing a premium.
It is urderstood the Atlanta Commer
cial Exchange has a limited supply of
pedigreed seed of three varieties —
Acala Cleveland, College No. I—w’hieh1 —w’hieh
have been approved by the United
Stat"S Department of Agriculture and
the State College of Agriculture, which
WM be sold to farmers at cost upon
Implication. ,
It is learned that many communities
aave already taken hold and ordered
Shipments of good seed. Why not your
community? At least, why not you
place an order at once?
