Worn Gins Account For Cotton Losses In L umber of Cases Losses of (1 to $2 a bale are suf fered consistently when cotton is run through gins in which the saws and ribs are badly worn, undersiz ed. otherw ise defective It also takes about 20 percent longer to gin a bale, and this means that the ginner takes a toss as well as the grower, said J. C. Ferguson. State College extension specialist in cotton ginning These losses can be averted, he sakj, by installing new parts or having defective parts repaired properly. This work should be done before the (inning season gets on "We know that i greet deal of poor sharpening is being done in the field by persons who lake no pains to maintain factory pitch, a Lignment, or true-running saws." Ferguson stated. ? "The tooth point should be about Mie-third the thickness of the saw. ind the lending edge of the tooth ihould be parallel to the fact of the -lb as it enters. The point may be .lightly in advance of the throat. but the throat i vane* of the point. "Rib* should be ed. Badly worn rib* should be re placed or built up. The space be tween the nbs should be approxi mately three time* the thsi h ie? of the saw." The repair work can be done at the gin. Ferguson continued, but bet ter results will be obtained in the saw cylinders and breasts if they are returned to the factory for re pairs. PLANT NOW FOR THAT FALL GARDEN k. BtrL Brorroli.
