Overview

Excerpt from A Story of Cotton The planting of cotton, usually begins, in the southern portion of the cotton producing area of the United States, as early as the last of February; and, by the last of March in the locality mentioned, the cotton is usually all planted. In the northern portion, the planting of cotton, is fairly under way in the month of April. In the southern area, under ordinary conditions, cotton matures, and picking begins, and the marketing of cotton starts, about the first of July. In the more northern latitudes, ordinarily, cotton begins to mature and starts being marketed, during the month of August. If the weather permits, the cotton markets of Texas, south ern Louisiana, southern Alabama, Georgia and southern South Carolina assume activity, and the receipts of cotton begin to be rather generous, by the first week in August. In the more northern latitudes of the cotton district, it is usually about the middle of September, before an active marketing of cotton is in evidence.
