SUCCESS OR FAILURE of the new cotton pro-
gram depends entirely upon a proper bal-
ance between Choice "A" and Choice "B*
farmers. If an overwhelming majority goes
Choice "A", then it will be a signal to
politicians that cotton growers did not
mean it when they said: "Give us the
right to produce." They will move toward
another high support, low production
program. Overwhelming production of
Choice "B" cotton would increase the sup-
ply more rapidly than exports and do-
mestic offtake could increase. It would
endanger the choice program in 1960 and
prevent a general inyease in acreage in
1961, which is a program objective.
THE DEPARTMENT of Agriculture has an-
nounced that it plans to move to recap-
ture export markets in the 1959-60
season. While refusing to lower export
prices during the present season, Sec-
retary Benson has said that prices will
be made competitive beginning Aug. 1.
ALTHOUGH COTTON MAY regain more markets
because of the reduction of the price of
raw cotton this fall, there probably will
be no benefits to the consumer. Textile
labor unions already are asking for wage
increases, arguing that the mills can
afford it because of the lower cost of
cotton. Textile prices have advanced re-
cently as mills have geared production to
offtake.
SPLIT GRADES will be a feature of the oot-
ton loan this year for the first time.
In the past a farmer oould expect to
reap no benefit from a bale that was
graded plus, or light spot. The split
grade loan levels will be half way be-
tween the regular grades. If there should
be a $20 a bale difference between Mid-
dling and Strict Low Middling, as has
been the case, a Strict Low Middling
olass would bring the farmer $10 more
under the loan this year. It is doubtful
if the 14 designated markets quote the
split grades. They are required only to
give quotations on grades and staples for
which the Department of Agrioulture has

Plant, or turn in your alloti
TESTS AT THE Delta Branch Experiment Ste
tion in Mississippi indicate that on ai
three-year average the practice of skli
row planting—four rows of cotton, foi
rows fallow—Increases the yields by
roughly 45%. For those who have an ex-|
cess of land, it might be an idea.
THIS SHOULD BE a good time to check on
supply of seed for planting, if it al-|
ready has not been done. Germination i|
better than last year, but not up to a
level that is considered normal. The
planning of nondescript seed proved cos]
for many growers last year. Good seed
the first and most important requisite
for a good cotton crop.
A NEW COTTON GIN of the roller type
which has a greater capacity than prest
saw gins has been developed by the De-
partment of Agriculture at its station
in New Mexico. Feature is that it does
not damage cotton. Hope is expressed tl
this, together with new type dryers,
which do not use excessive heat, will pi
mit the ginning of cotton that is of a|
spinnable character and not Just cottoi
that has had its grade increased for
the loan.
RESEARCH IS DOING MUCH for oottou. The
cetton gin noted above is one example.
Another is the new organic phosphorus
compound called AP0 whioh gives cotton]
superior drip-dry finish that is iuxnunl
to the present yellowing effeot of ohlj
rine bleaohes. At the mill level the
USDA has designed opening room equlpmed
whioh cleans cotton more effectively aj
a cost savings of $100 a day.
EVERY FARMER should plant his allotted
acreage, either under Choioe "A* or
Choice "B", or should turn it in to hll
county committee so that it can be re-1
allocated. He may lose it if he doesn't
and his oounty will lose planting hls1
in any event. Efforts now are being
to make failure to pint aruunds
