1015 COTTON CROP LIGHT.
Tliy Fort Worth Star Telegram calls attention
to tho 1U15 cotton crop us being light the govern-
mont estimate being 11101000 bales. The Star-
Telegram's estimate of the crop was 11000000.
The Reporter is pot certain that the Telegram has
iot como closer to the actual number of bales than
h..H tlm irnvflrnnioiit. however. 1G1.0Q0 baJes is not
fur to miss in an estimate of a cotton eron. -
Tho most! interesting thing to The Reporter is
not the 1915 crop but the 1Q1G crop. I'p to this
year we have had a boll weevil to contend with.
JJut "they have come" and 'came to stay and
thereby hangs a story that is of interest to every
man woman and child in this part of Texas. Cot-
ton must be raised asvthe chief money erop. There
is no cottiusr away from that fact. We just simply
lutist planraud tiueeessfully produce a. mriaia
amount ofcottou In ort4er to Keep eiiougn money
in the country to keep it going. Cows hogs
chickens and turkeys will make the farmer a liv-
ing if he will give them attention and no good
farmer will fail to do that in this country yet the
money to pay for the farm to buy the auto and to
put aside the non-producing period of life must
"come frc-iu the cotton field in most eases. Sinoe
that is true the farmers of Central Wet Ticxas are
virtually interested in the question of growing eot-
fou. in a boll weevil infected country.
J-ajTWonced farmers who have grown cotton for
yaars in uountries where the boll weevil are in the
cotton every year recommend early planting in-
feusiye cultivation wide rows and one stalk hills.
gk lieperter is epnviuced that cotton may be
