ELLIS COUNTY COTTON CROP
Believed an Average of Half a
Bale Will be Made.
The Ellis county cotton yield js
turning out better than the pessi
mistic gueesers earlv in the season
predicted. According to estimates
made by men who have been over a
great deal of the county the average
vield will be near one-half bale to
the acre. The farmers have taken
advantage of the fair weather of the
past two or three week- and picking
has made rapid progress. A large
number of farmers have about fin
ished picking and the demand for
pickers is not so great as it was
two or three weeks ago. In some
sections of the county, especially
where fields are located in creek
bottoms, the crop did not mature
early and picking 19 just now in fair
progress. Despite the fact that the
cotton In these fields lias been
slightly injured by worms and wee·
1 vils It is believed that an average
yield will be marie.
It is confidently believed that the
county's yield will h·» in excess of
last year's crop. At the different
towns in the county where cotton is
bought tlie receipts are reported t«
tie ahead of what they wer^j at the
-ame date last year. At the chs··
of business Wednesday afternoon
the two yards in Waxahachie had
weighed bales and I -7 1 lnilee
had been received at the round bale
gin, making a total <>f I^, 171 bales for
the seas in. October .il of last
year the total receipts numbered 11,
»W1 bales and on the next publication
of the receipts, December 12, 14,vi7
bales had,been w>-u · 1. F 1 the past
few week- the compress has been
taxed to its fullest capacity and
during the season n.ore than -!·">.mm
bales have passed t! rough its
presses.
The high prices that are beins·
paid (or t1 « staple ar»· 11 <>t unlv stim
ulating last pickitiir. but ar· induce
ments for the farmers to ; ick t ieir
fields cleaner than has been t! ·· us
ual custom, as they are anxious t"
realize every pound that is possible
