Roland Turner, General Agricul tural Agent of the Southern Railway System, who has spent many years in study and observation of cotton production, declares in a bulletin is sued by his department that he has never known a farmer who followed certain lines of procedure upon his farm but who made a successful and profitable crop of cotton, notwith standing the ravages of the boll weevil. These lines of procedure are set forth by Mr. Turner as follow: First—Careful selection of cotton land with a view to good drainage and earfinoss. Cold, wet late land will not make cotton except in ex tremely dry years. Land that warms up early and upon which cotton will grow off quickly after it is up must be selected. Second—Fertilize liberally with high grade goods, especially goods containing high percentages of quick ly available nitrogen. 000 to 1000 pounds tier acre should be used al ways and probably the most import ant single factor next to the selec tion of dry, early land in successful cotton production, particularly under boll weevil conditions, is heavy fer tilization. Third—Good seed snould be plant ed. A variety that is well adapted to your locality and one that has been improved, produces a good staple, and that fruits uniformly, is import ant. The aim should be to use care fully selected seed from a good standard variety and one that has done well in your locality. Fourth—Space cotton thick- Rows should be 3 to 3 1-2 feet and plants should be spaced in the row the width of a chopping hoe apart and 2 to 5 stalks left in the hill, depend ing on the fertility of the soil. On the better lands, 2 stalks to the hill is probably the best, but on poorer, thinner places leave more. 3 to 4 stalks to the hill is best and remem ber that a thick stand is imporant. Be sure and leave enough stalks on the land. Fifth—Cultivate often nnd keep clean of wceils and grass. Os course shallow cultivation is best but the aim should be to keep the crop clean and the soil stirred often. The Extension Department of the Mississippi A. & M. College, in 1925, through the cooperation of fertilizer factories of the stnte ami the Mississippi Seed Crushers, con ducted a three-acre better cotton production contest. One of .the ob jects of the contest was to gain a j clearer idea as to how much fertiliz er may be profitably used for cotton, | the Director of Extension making no effort to control the amounts of fer . tilizer used, or the formula, but leav / ing this feature entirely to the con , testaut. i According to a report on the re - suits of this contest by the Missis i sippi Extension Department, more 1 than 3,000 cotton farmers entered s the contest. Not all of the farmers 1 entering the contest, however, com - j pie ted the work and made reports. : j A limited number of records made, sI so selected as to represent the sev ; ! eral soil types of the states, are re i ported in a circular issued by the ? Extension Department of the Mis -1 sissippi A. & M. college in January - j 15)20, extension circular No. 46. The 5 1 writer has analyzed 33 records listed 1 and finds the following: t Average amount of seed per acre produced—2,2sß.Bs pounds. , Average amount of commercial 3 fertilizer used per acre—B33.36 . pounds. ) Average width of rows—3,2s feet. Average space of hills in row— • 10.3 inches. The reports are not entirely com -1 plete as to number of stalks in mils, r but in most instances more than one - stalk, and up to five or six was left. That is authentic information. It . is likely that most good farmers who , read this editorial already know the , truth of this statement. But how many of them are actually putting it I into practice? This is going to be a critical I year for the cotton grower. The out , look is for low prices. Consequently, the cost of production per pound , must be kept down. Thnt can be ae , complished most readily by increas , ing yield per acre, which means a I higher cost per acre in fertilizer nnd cultivation, but lower cost per , pound, because the increased pro . will be at a lower pound cost. | The financial status of muny a farmer will be determined by decis ions he makes within the next 30 J days. , The New York Postoffiee receives , weekly more than 2,000,000 pieces of , misdirected mail, most of them with , I out street address, j One of the odd facts in connection > with snow crystals is thnt practically i ! all of the hundreds of different varie s ties are hexagonal in form. 1 “The English-speaking world is i moving across the Atlantic.

I Hickory, March 31.—An ancient grudge ia believed by Rev. A. T. Abernethy, of Rutherford College, to be at the bottom of the assertion of Rev W. E. Poovey, of Marion, in cluded in a letter read before the | house of representatives Monday, I that be had been a bigamist, and that in 1008 he spent several weeks on a drunken spree Mr. Abernethy j said in an interview with a Hickory i newspaper man. | “1 claim the very distinct pleas ure,” Mr. Abernethy said, "of hav ! ing been responsible about 20 years ago of preventing his being elected I president of Rutherford college by | presenting the matter to the metn j hers of the board who had been call ed on to make the decisive vote on the tie.” Mr. Abernethy announced that hej had placed tbs matter in tha hands of an Asheville attorney and would leave it to him. In the event of his appearance before the United States senate Mr. Abernethy said that he would insist that ongrossman Up shaw, of Atlanta, a devout prohibi j tionist. Congressman Weaver, of 'Asheville, and other members of Congress who had known him in the cities where he had lived and preach , ed, be subpoenaed as character wit ! nesses before he made any statement. He branded the assertions of the (Marion minister as false. Kentucky Turf Scandal. One of (he evils of horse racing ! was brought out when the Kentucky state racing commossiou ruled six jockeys ami three owners and train ers off the turf “for life.” Donald Mergler, one of the jockeys, confes sed that he accepted a SIOOO bribe to “pull” his horse. In other words, he curbed his horse in a race at Latonia last October to permit another horse to win. As a result of the "fixed” race t'.iese persons were blacklisted in addition to Mergler: Harry Stutts, Grover Noel, James Wallace, Bert Harvey, P. J. and R. D. Wil liamson and Tom Devereaux. The Williamson brothers nre owners of raving horses. They were granted the privilege of sellingtheir horses at public auction May 7.
