Steps Towards Improvement in Cotton
Classing Procedure Taken June 15
Another step towards improve-
ment it) •otton classing procedtrv
taken J one 15 when representa-
tives of Rolling Plains Cottor.
Growers, Ine. and other cotton
producer and sjinner groups met
in Dallas with L'.S.D.A. officials.
Discussion was concerned main-
ly with instrom.mt classing of
cotton in fuluiv years, but there
were also assurances that '•'>
D A. in 1907 would olace added
emphasis on the accuracy of its
human classers, especially in the
Roiling Plains.

A report on work in the field of
*• •■•tri'ment classing and a visit to
Motion Control, Inc., a Dallas
■orporation that is devetopini; a
'ine of instruments, gave hope that
i strument c'assing is closer at
hand than many people realize
nd could very well be effected L:'
'he near future, according to
"harles Stenholm. RPCG execu-
ive vice oresident, who reore-
cnted RPCG at the meeting along
vith .J, B. Cooper, Jr., of Roscoe,
•^resident.
Stenholm reported that at least
one and possibly as many
three, instrument classing "lines"
will be set up this fall in Mem-
phis. Tennessee to evaluate both
individual instruments and the
sys'eni, lie said all Instruments
vhicli are sufficiently developed
at the time will be tested in the
lines.
Evaluation of cotton classing
Instruments of somewhat different
'.ype will be carried out at Plains
Cotton Cooperative Assn. in Lub-
bock again this fall, USDA and
'•"Mains officials will exchange
ideas and v-iluaUve materials in
lopes of .speeding up the develop-
nent of machines that will g<lt
he Job done.
Machines likely to be included
are a combination colorimeter
'ength analysers improved micro
nalre tester and possibly strength
and unifority instruments.
Another meeting with these
same USDA officials and other'
's being planned for next sprinr
when the results of this fall'
'perations, as well as the late*'
'nv"looments from other source-
are known. .
"At that time" Slenhoim said,
"we will be in a much better pos-
ition to de'ermine which, if anv,
of the instrument', can be put in'J
actual classing office operation ui
he fall of 1908".
He pointed out that use of in-
struments to more exactly define
he spinning value of cotton fi-
bers will cventu.il'v of great
benefit to cotton producers. "And,
ncidentally, the use of instru-
ments will have to be the result
)f producer and pinner efforts. No
lelp at this time at least can be
■xpected from other segments of
'tp industry", he added.
Beef Consumption
Doubles in 20 Yeors
College Station — Grandmother
nay talk about the "good oP
lays," but when it comes to eat-
i« beef, chances are she is con-
suming almost twice as much per ^
vear as she did 20 years ago.
(isvendolyne Clyatt, Extension
consumer marketing specialist at |
Texas A&M University, reports ,
hat production and consumption j
;f beef could set new records in
19ij7, according to government and
meat industry estimates. Fore-
casts are for an output of about
twice as much as was being pro-
duced by the cattle and beef in-
dustry 20 years ago.
With that much beef available,
Vmericans can consume an aver-
age of 103.6 pounds per person.
Per capita consumption of beef
tallied around BO pounds 20 years
ago. Thus, in only two decades,
modern production and process-
ing efficiencies have made avail-
able some 40 pounds more beef
per person.
Mrs. Clyatt adds that beef ac-
counts for well over half the re-
cord-breaklng 33 3 billion pounds
of all meat—heof
