Raleigh April 30. Cotton planting delayed by frequent rains. C R Hudson from State College urges early cultivation with a weeder or light harrow to destroy young weeds. Chop plants at four to six leaves then thin two stalks per hill eight inches apart. Apply at least 100 pounds of nitrogen per acre early, with side applications under boll weevil pressure. Early starting, chopping, and timely fertilization are key to a good year.
