Overview

Excerpt from Bulletin of the Department of Agriculture, Jamaica, 1905, Vol. 3 With regard to baling it would be well if the cotton was baled so that it would arrive in the best possible condition. Some of the cotton from the West Indies was sent out in bales bound round with iron bands like Florida and Georgia Sea Island cotton, but he understood in some cases presses had been obtained for making up the cotton in bags without bands which will give the bales the same appearance as the cotton from Edisto and James Island. He did not think that a single planter in Edisto or James Island puts bands round his cotton, and to see bales with iron bands round them might lead some spinners to be suspicious lest they were buying Florida and Georgia Sea Island and not real Sea Island grown upon the islands.
