r beans and peanuts were presented
[ during the meetings. These crops
, were discussed from the standpoint of
,'seed, varieties, fertilization, and cul
tivation.
[ Hodges told the groups that the
, 1950 cotton crop offered a good ex
. ample of how science can aid the
. farmer. He said the average yield of
lint per acre in the State last year
was only 162 pounds, but some farm
ers made more than 1,000 pounds per
acre simply by following sound prac
tices developed through research.
