Early Stripping Halted
by Weekend Rain
" ' ■ ’ that he had 1.50 inches of rain
at Dunlap, commented that the
rain came at the right time to
keep him from stripping the
green bolls. He had already
taken in some that was too
green, he added.
Another grower pointed out in
the pre-stripping days, this pro-
blem had been solved by only

the green bollts to mature and

Personnel of the three Padu-
cah gins by 3 p.m. Monday said
that their plants had processed
approximately 1,250 bales of
cotton from this year’s crop.
Farmers, meanwhile, were
listening closely to televised
weather forecasts for an an-
nouncement that a killing frost
was close at hand. A hard frost
was needed to kill the late
green bolls and permit them dry
out and open. Such a frost would
kill the leaves, dry them and aid
in their being shed, the tillers of
the soil said.
