Bureau Southern News,
Tine Bluff, N. C.
It is likely that no crop on the face
of the globe, certainly, not in the Uni
ted States, receives more anxious care
and attention than the cotton crop.
If the crop does well it draws large
amounts of money to the United
States, and not only benefits the South
but the entire Union ; and for this
reason the culture of cotton should be
an interesting subject to every Ameri
can. The cotton is planted from the ist
of April to the ist of may in drills or
rows about three feet apart. When
the plants are two weeks old it is thin
ned out by "chopping" or cutting a
slice from the top of the row tight
inches wide taking with it all the cot
ton sprouts in the eight inch space
leaving a few plants between each
"chap." Later on all cotton fields are
brought to a btand. That is, the fields
are plowed, a'.l grass and all plants
more than needed chopped out. To
bring one acre to a stand, is a day's
work for the best hands.
Our fields have been brought to a
stand, we leave the cotton to grow for
a while and look a little to the foes of
the crop. First the cold weather in
the spring, may delay planting too long;
or cold weather after it comes up may
discolor it, or late frosts nip it. Too
much rain in June may allow the grass
to get ahead of the cotton by prevent
ing proper cultivation of the land.
The most destructive living foe is the
cotton caterpillar. The Hon. Gerald
McCarth, State Botanist of North
Carolina, treats this as follows:
THE COTTON CATERPILLAR.
This much dreaded pest of the cot
ton field is less troublesome in North
Carolina than in States further South.
Theco'ton moth is a tropical spec
ies, introduced into the Southern
oiaies ironi nouia America m or
about 1793. The damage caused by
this pest since its introduction almost
exceeds belief. During the two de
cades trom i860 to 18S0, competent
authorities estimate the average an
nual damage at $20,000,000. During
bad worm years 1 exas has lost from
this source alone $9,400,000 ; Missis
sippi, fco, 000,000 i Alabama, $4,700.
000 j Louisiana, $4,500,000 ; Georgia,
$4,000,000; Arkansas, $1,300,000;
souin Carolina, $500,000; Tennessee
and North Carolina, $350,000 each.
The cotton moth passes the wintci
in the perfect or winged state. But.
being a tropical species, it is unable to
withstand the winter temperature north
of the latitude of Savannah and Vicks
burg. At the commencement of cold
weather all the moths found north of
that latitude die ; of those found south
of the line some few survive, hidden
in cracks and corners of gin houses,
and other buildings, or they find shel
ter under heaps of rubbish in fields
and woods. These survivors suffice
to propagate the species anew each
spring. The insects, as they increase
in number, spread northward, and
usually reach North Carolina about
the first of August.
The moth lays her eggs singly on
on the under side of the leaf and each
female usually lays from 150 to 200
eggs. The eggs are at first greenish,
soon changing to whitish. They are
about 1-40 inch in diameter, semi
spherical and ribbed like a cotton
picker's basket. The eggs usually
hatch in two or' three days and the
young caterpillars at once begin to eat.
The first few days they confine them
selves to the underside of the leaves,
but eventually eat through or " rag "
the leaf and appear on the upper sides.
The caterpillar grows rapidly and eats
voraciously for about 20 days. It
then by means of silk threads, webs
itself up into a leaf and remains dor
mant for a week or ten days. At the
end of this period it comes forth as
the perfect or winged moth. Within
thirty-six hours after issuing the moths
have paired and the female begins to
lay her eggs for the next brood. The
number of broods varies from two in
North Carolina to six or more in Tex
as.
The cotton resembles the buck
wheat plant when it first appears
above ground and for several weeks
thereafter, but when fully matured it
has the appearance of a small tree or
large shrub. It's average height is
three feet but sometimes it grows to a
height of eight feet.
Cotton commences blooming in
June and continues to bloom until
September, and ripens from the ist of
July until the ist of December.
A field of full open cotton resem
bles a great snow bank it is so white
and beautiful.
Cotton is gathered by hand. No
machine has yet been invented that
has been a success in gathering cotton
and I doubt if any machine will be in
vented. A smart quick cotton pick
er can gather two hundred and filty
pounds a day " and make one dollar
and twenty-five cents as the usual
price for gathei ing is fifty cents per
hundred pounds.
When gathered, the cotton is carried
to the gin house where the seed is
separated from the lint which is pack
ed into bales weighing from 450 to
600 pounds. It is then ready for
market and can be sold for cash at
any town or railroad station as there
are cotton buyers wherever there is a

town of a hundred or more popula
tion. Good cotton land will yield an in
come of twenty dollars per acre, and
under the best of care and good ma
nuring the net income above all ex
penses can be increased to forty dol
lars per acre.
The finest upland cotton soil is
found on the Carolina Central Rail
way in North Carolina. It is a soil
composed of decomposed granite rock
and requires little manure or fertili
zer. This kind of soil is also good
grain and grass land. Similar soil is
also found in the States of South Caro
lina and Georgia, but the quality of
cotton grown upon these soils does
not command as high prices.
As cotton enters Inrgely into al
most every vaiiety of manufactured
fabrics, its culture is destined to grow
as the population and civilization of
the world is extended ; and the ico
pie of the United States should do all
in their power to improve the con
dition ol the cotton lands of the Uni
ted States, for what draws money
from foreign nations to the United
States is of advantage to every citizen
on the America Continent.
