Early Georgia cotton crop shown in ginning report
A Georgia cotton ginning report received in Athens on Monday shows most Athens area counties produced ginned cotton earlier this year than last. From Sept 25, 1921, to Sept 25, 1920, counts range 50 to 1000 percent higher, with Jasper and Jefferson the exceptions. The data reflect early varieties and held stocks, not an oversized crop, as farmers kept cotton to weather low prices. The census bureau figures, covering 1921 and 1920, will be published as preliminary state totals early in October.
