Anderson Responds On Cotton Reports In Clarke County
Editor Banner I have read Capt. J. H. Rucker's interview. I assert the ginner reports are obtained by government agents through cards filled in by ginners or trusted deputies signatories. reports cover August to December with four issued and two to follow. The system, started by Albert S Burlison at farmers’ urging, can be improved if every ginner keeps books and signs cards, for better price signals and crop knowledge.
