Calvin, cirector of the Georgla Experiment sta- Uon, in a communication to the At- lanta Constitution, wherein he com- pares the corn production of the lead- Ing cotton producing states to the pro- duction of grain in several eastern and western states, ‘These_figures show that North Car- olina, South Carolina, Georgia, Ala- bama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas and Oklahoma produced 417,- 000 bushels of corn, while the gross uct in - Pennsylvania, Indiena, chigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Kansas and Colorado was 355790.000. Thus for 1309 the cotton states have to their credit 61,790,000 more bushels of corn than the nine eastern and western ziates given In this list.
