Feed Grain, Cotton Program Plans Given North Carolina cotton harvest was delayed by heavy rains re cently. Quality of ginned cot ton remained high, while prices varied more than the week be- for and trended slightly upward. Estimates of U. S. and N. C. production dropped slightly and market activity increased accord ing to E. M. Stallings, extension economist at Norih Carolina Slate University. 'He adds that recent rainy weather left cotton too wet to pick and soil too wet to support encipment. It also caused some increase in boll rot and second growth. However, harvest should resume now if the weather slays .air. rhe N. C. crop is still con sidered flirly good in spite of the unftvorable weather. “The October 1 U. S. cotton production forecast gave the al ready very short cotton supply situation another small jolt by shewing a 2.3 per cent drop from the Septemiber 1 estimate. U. S. production is now estimat ed at 10,700,900 bales while the N. C. estimate dropped 3.3 per cent to 151,000 bales,” says Stall ings. “U. S. cotton supplies for 1971-72 are the smallest in over 20 years and U. S. cotton is be ing ginned at a record slow pace. The North Carolina crop moved to the gin at one fourth the rate of la.sl year through Oct. 9.” E. C. Han.son, of the RaleiTh Cotton Classing Office, reports that 10,021 bale samples ha'd been classed through Oct. 8. The quality has been excellent so far. Eighty-eight per cent of all Siam- Page 3 pies graded white and 11 irer cent light spotted. The most prevalent grade was strict low middling lor 41 per cent, follow ed by low middling for 28 per cent, low middling pics for 15 per cent, middling for 2 per rent and strict good ordinary for 2 per cent. Micronairo or fineness of fiber readings showed an ex cellent ai per cent in Ihe ilcsir- abl range of 3.5 to 1.9. .Siaiile length is exceptionally rood with 66 per cent measuring 1 3 32 inches and longer and Kitl per cent 1 ltl6 inches and lon-jer.

"M a r ket activity increased slightly last week, prompt trad ing increa.sed shai ply, and for ward trading decrea.sed,’ Stall ings adds. “Mill prices were steady to firm. Slowness of har vest has caused some increase in crop lot contracting by pro ducers with merchants and mills. Prices paid to producers increas ed slightly to most 28 to 29 1-2 cents per pound for crop lots. 700 to 1,000 points over COC 1-oan rates for higher through lower available grades tnd 28 through 30 1-4 cents per pound for low middling through middling ww middling and middling graes.” Recent reports suggest that Russian cotton proection for 1971 will be a'bout 10 per cent be low that of 1970 at 9 1-2 million tales. Available data indicate that Russia consumes about 8 million bales, mporis 1,2 mil lion, exports 2.3 million bales and has an average yield per acre of around 725 pound.s. Where cotton originally sprar.'' to life remains a mystery, for this great fiber is older than record ed history. Ancient records re veal that cotton was grown and the year 10, in China by 700, in used in India and Egypt as England by 120, and in the U. S early as 3,000 'B. C., in Spain by by 1607.
