For a better quality cotton and urge the farmers of<br />

Now's The Time To INSURE<br />

a BETTER MARKET for<br />

Your 10J7<br />

The situation confronting the cotton growers<br />

in this section, a condition brought about by<br />

the extreme dry and drouthy conditions prevailing<br />

during last su<strong>mm</strong>er, has impressed the<br />

entire cotton fraternity, including ginners, farmers,<br />

and bankers with the necessity of getting<br />

high-clas- s planting seed for the coming crop.<br />

This action is being stimulated all over the territory,<br />

by those who realize something must be<br />

done, or else a poor prospect is in view for a<br />

good cotton market during the 1937 cotton harvesting<br />

season.<br />

The seed now being used in this section,<br />

according to tests that have been made, show<br />

an extremely low germination, and the fact that<br />

cotton w<strong>ill</strong> germinate does not mean that it w<strong>ill</strong><br />

produce a healthy stock of cotton.<br />

In order to increase the yield 'per acre, and<br />

the staple of cotton, the HASKELL territory is<br />

going to be forced to introduce better grade<br />

planting seed from sections that were blest<br />

with more generous rainfall.<br />

Haskell there many<br />

tions in Texas as well as in other parts of the world where only short staple<br />

cotton can be produced.<br />

Why then should we try to compete with the lowest type and cheap labor<br />

when we can produce the type of cotton that spinners are ever seeking.<br />

PEDIGREED SEED<br />

W<strong>ill</strong> Improve the Staple<br />

Realizing the seriousness of the situation facing our<br />

county if large cotton buyers follow their intention<br />

to cease buying the shorter staple cotton produced,<br />

we heartily favor the movement sponsored by<br />

The Haskell Free Press<br />

to seed to avert the of a<br />

heavy on the part of cotton<br />

make a of 200 points on the aext<br />

grade below the 7-- plant pedigreed payment<br />

Buyers discount<br />

8 inch staple or $10 per bale. We<br />

may have to buy cotton strictly on grade and staple<br />

during 1937.<br />

NAPPING<br />

COTTON<br />

Cotton is a dry weather plant and w<strong>ill</strong><br />

stand more heat than most any other co<strong>mm</strong>odity,<br />

yet a certain amount of rainfall is essential<br />

to its proper maturity.<br />

The gins and allied business men<br />

by the cotton are alive to the seed<br />

needs of this territory, and are a united<br />

effort to better and a<br />

cottonseed that w<strong>ill</strong> a more salable staple<br />

and yet make a lint out-tur- n affected<br />

industry<br />

making<br />

encourage planting seed,<br />

produce<br />

of a satisfactory<br />

nature. The farmers themselves, realize that in<br />

a majority of instances they are going to have<br />

to sacrifice their old seed, and purchase others.<br />

It is a fact recognized by the cotton dealers,<br />

that during the past year, fewer outside<br />

cotton buyers were attracted to this i<strong>mm</strong>ediate<br />

section than during any former year. The absence<br />

of these representatives of shippers made<br />

it more difficult to get a good price for the cotton,<br />

and this loss was the more keenly felt by<br />

the cotton raisers.<br />

BETTER HEED<br />

The Warning!<br />

and improve the quality of the cotton produced<br />

in this territory<br />

Cotton factors have warned they may refuse to purchase<br />

short staple cotton in the future and even<br />

though they do it w<strong>ill</strong> be at a big discount.<br />

We may have to purchase cotton strictly on staple in<br />

the future and this means short staple cotton w<strong>ill</strong><br />

bring $10 less per bale than in the past.<br />

HELP YOUR COUNTY<br />

by planting a cotton of standard length staple. Exporters<br />

are going to penalize heavily or refuse to<br />

Local buyers have been warned they must buy<br />

3trictly according to grade an'd staple or stand the<br />

loss.<br />

NATIONAL<br />

'The old reliable since 1890"<br />

THE<br />

LATEST REPORT<br />

SHOWS<br />

Approximately 26 per cent Texas cotton untender-abl- e<br />

; 21 per cent in staple and 5 per cent in grade,<br />

and in some sections of Texas 70 per cent of the production<br />

was untenderable on contract.<br />

We believe the remedy for this deplorable situation<br />

is the planting of better seed. It w<strong>ill</strong> mean many<br />

dollars to the Haskell County farmers this fall when<br />

the 1937 crop is placed on the market.<br />
