According to the latest infor mation, tobacco averaged about 1770 lbs. per acre from 6195.66 acres, grossing $6, 585,790 80 This accounts for a little over 50 rV of the total cash income. The boll weev il took a good per cent of our producers for a down hill ride by reducing our cot ton income or.e-fourth million dollars to $776,769 78. In the northern section of the coun ty boll weevils were not so rough but southern sections were seriously damaged. Ac tual farm records prove be yond a doubt that we can grow cotton at a good profit in all sections when a boll weevil control program is ap plied. Other crop cash in come added up to $1,274, 109.98. Forestry And Livestock Livestock cash income jumped 1/2 million dollars to 81.809,550.00 Forestry pro ducts increased about 100, 000 000 to $1,525,500.00.
