Harvesting advances in Collingsworth cotton around Salt Fork
Harvesting in Collingsworth County runs about two weeks ahead as ginners report better than expected yields after dry weather. More than 1300 bales ginned south of Salt Fork River with cotton at middling grades and price around 30 cents, while many farmers avoid loans. Large numbers of Mexican workers arrive and pickers are plentiful, but yield may fall short of last year’s 33,000 bales.
