Halifax farmers hear cotton co op head on Smith bill

Halifax County members of the North Carolina Cotton Growers Cooperative Association heard M. G Mann, the organization’s general manager, urge passage of the Smith Bill. He warned of low world cotton prices, declining exports, and the need to boost domestic consumption to raise prices, and touted better seed and fiber quality for premium returns. The meeting included delegate elections for the district and an entertainment program by 4-H and Young Tar Heel farmers.

Trainload Nitrate of Soda Heads to Delta Farms

A late February Gulfport Mississippi shipment of Arcadian Nitrate of Soda, mostly in cotton bags, was purchased by Delta planters for fertilizing oat crops. Delta Experiment Station tests indicate 200 pounds per acre can boost yields by about 38 bushels, suggesting one ton yields around 400 extra bushels. The move signals rising oat demand and preference for U S nitrate fertilizer.
