Cotton Picking
Crews Distributed
Cotton picking in the south and
cotton cultivation in other areas of
the state, along with harvesting
of vegetables and other late crops
in scattered sections occupied the
foreground of the Texas labor pic
ture at the beginning of August.
Workers were in demand in some
regions.
According to reports to C. Hohn,
Extension Service farm labor su
pervisor, picking was active in the
Lower Rio Grande Valley with the
peak in Hidalgo County expected
about August 10. Latest reports
showed that ginning had reached
more than 6,000 bales in Willacy
county and upwards of 1,000 bales
in Starr. Some pickers were re
ported leaving the area on account
of low acre yields. Picking in the
Corpus Christ! area became gen
eral the first of the month.
Since July 10, the migratory
field assistants stationed at Rivi
era and Falfurrias have contacted
108 crews comprising 1,618 pick
ers. The majority of these were
placed in Nueces, San Patricio, Jim
Wells, Kleberg and Karnes coun
ties. Meanwhile, peanut harvesting
is progressing in Atascosa and Frio
counties.
under way in the Panhandle with
a demand for tractor operators in
several counties. Hudspeth County
needs help for plowing and haying,
and there was a call for a few
cowboys from ranchmen in adja
cent counties. Reports from other ^
west Texas areas show that com-
bining of early maize had begun
in Fisher county and harvesting of
grain sorghums in Runnels county
was under way.
During the last week of July,
a total of 5, 436 town and city
youths had been placed on farms
through the Extension labor serv
ice, including 300 in Hidalgo coun
ty and 200 each in Nueces, Karnes
and Colorado.

In cotton growing areas less ad
vanced, hoeing was progressing in
the High Plains region with some
sections almost completed. Recent
rains increased the demand for hoe
hands in Stonewall and Wheeler
counties, and this type of labor also
is in demand in Midland, Hudspeth
and Ward counties. Bailey County
needs help for hoeing cotton and
beans, and for harvesting pota
toes.
Williamson County, in the Black-
land region, needs hands for feed
harvest, while Dallas County is
short of help for dairying, haying,
and general farm work. Across
the state, seed bed preparation is.
