UNPICKED COTTON V
LOST IN STORM Do
Crop Specialist, Bureau of at
Statistics Reports 100,000
Bales Destroyed.
Houston. Tex.-A loss of 100,000
.ales in unpicked c,, ton wts caused
S)y the tropic(al storm that swept the
gulf coast of Texas. according to a
eport issued Saturday by . N. N (ry,
Texas cotton crop specinli-t .ithe br
bureau of estimates.
Other great losn:. ha,te occurred in ma
:he condition of the crop since August ed
25 as a result of insect ravages in the he
southeast half of the state, the report (
states. While the northwestern half ev
of the cotton-producing area of the be
state is said to have excellent crops, H
:he condition of the crop for the en
;ire state is estimated at 52 l:;" cent
normal. This forecasts a total prodiuc
:ion for the state of about 2.955u.000
iales of 500 pounds gross weight, not
ncluding linters. Last year the pre
Iiction in Texas was 2,696,561 bales,
two years ago 3,125,379 halcs, three
years ago 3,725,7100 bales, and four
years ago 3,227,448 bales.
According to. Mr. Gray's report the
2otton crop in Northwest Texas is 88
per cent normal with that in Colling*
worth County of that section being
100 per cent normal, Floyd 101 per
cent and other counties in that sec
:ion ranging from 85 to 96 per cent
normal. The crop in North Texas is
1 30 per cent normal, in Northeast Tex
a as 53 per cent, in West Central Tex
as 86 per cent, in Central Texas 57
per cent, in East Texas 29 per cent,
in South Texas 15 per cent and in
Southeast Texas 22 per cent.
In Harris County the crop is 17 per
e cent normal, while in Liberty it is 15
per cent. In Refugio County it is but by
7 per cent normal and in Nueces Coun
ty but 10 per cent normal, the low ra
e tios in the latter counties being due
d to storm damage.
Nearly all the ills possible have be
- fallen the farmers in those sections
where the crop is reported bad. Con
tinuous and excessive rains delayed
" the plantings and caused frequent re
planting. Under the superabundance
of moisture cultivation was delayed,
is resulting in grassy fields and leaving
the plant rank in growth, with heavy
p foliage excluding the sunshine and
air.
In the last place all known insect
enemies of cotton have constantly in
d creased in numbers and destructive
ss ness. Even in the northern counties
the crop has suffered severely from
in the second attack of the worms and
- weevils.
