TIM WIS Smith's Cotton Farmers Are Reducing Acreage The South's cotton farmers, through better management and higher yields, have been able to reduce their cotton acreage sharply during the past 10 years, says C. Brice Ratchford, in charge of farm management for the State college extension service. The sharpest reduction, he said, has occurred in Oklahoma, where the crop has decreased from an average of 2,197,000 acres during 1935-39 to 1,074,000 acres In 1946. This is a 51.1 per cent reduction. Using the same base years (1935-391, there has been a 45.7 per cent decrease in Georgia, and a 39:3 per cent decrease in North Carolina. The decrease in Taxes has been 223 per cent, and in Mississippi it has been i?.u per cent. Through better use of land and better cultural practices, growers have been able to in crease their yields per acre. Therefore, Mr Ratchford assert ed, total production of cotton has not decreased nearly so much as total acreage. Purebred Pig Chain Is Formed For Neg.ro Boys George T.
