English Spinners Seek to Be Independent Independent of America. In the hope of some day securing a. raw cotton supply independent of America, the International Federation Federation of Master Cotton Spinners and Manufacturers' Association of England has launched a scheme for the establishment of a model cotton cotton plantation in Punjab, India. Considering the advances already made in India, it is estimated that before many years the Indian crop- will be almost as large as the American American crop. The model plantation in will demonstrate the benefits which arise from intensive farming thereby encouraging the landed proprietors proprietors to adopt this system and to improve the yields per acre and the quality of the fibre.. The land will ,be sown with as large percentage of American cotton cotton seed as possible, and the Agricultural Agricultural Department of Punjab will have the right to purchase any of the surplus seed produced which is not required for the estate, for distribution distribution in other districts.
