Of the 2,036,273 cotton acres al

farm act, 1.999,581 acres were di
vided among the state’s 156 cotton
growing counties and 36.692 acres
were reserved for allotment to new
producers went.
The largest county allotment
to Burke, which received 53,773
acres, Laurens was .second with
53,521 acres and Carroll third with
43.102 The smallest allotments went
to two coastal counties which grow
very little short staple cotton—Glynn
and McIntosh—each of which receiv
ed 18 acres. Four counties—Town*.
Rabun. Fannin and Union—do not
produce any cotton at all and con
sequently they receive no allotment*.
The 2,036,273 acres allotted Geor
gia represented this state s share
of the national cotton acreage al
lotment of approximately 26,300,000
acres.
The state allotment was apportion
