Letter to the Editor: David Johnson
From the Oct 29, 2024 e-EditionDear McKenzie Banner:
Thank you so much for the article about the ginning company in McLemoresville. I enjoyed reading about how many steps are involved in the process and how many different ways there are to use cotton. Everything but the stalk is put to use! I learned a lot.
