Sponsor Spotlight!
Each week we will be posting our sponsors! We thank them all for their generous contributions, no matter the amount! Without them, Allis Cotton Days wouldn’t be a possibility, and sure wouldn’t be as well documented.
First up is Lonestar Gin in Pampa, TX. We thank Carey McKinney for reaching out with the offer to be a sponsor. Lonestar has been a pleasure to do business with in the past, whether it’s them bringing us module tarps to the field, or getting our cotton ginned in a timely manner, we appreciate them!

End of August cotton update! 60 days of no rain have not been kind to the area, but we’re loading a few bolls on the plants, so there should be enough for some field demonstrations in November. Here’s an inside look at a boll this time of year-note the seeds beginning to form in the lint.

Have you seen our flyer posted around your town? Thanks to Vanessa, you won't find any Al slop around here! Just like Allis-Chalmers depended on innovative designers to manually create stylish tractors, we're proud to support human art and creativity with our one-of-a-kind designs! When you see Vanessa at the show, give her a high five and thank her for her work!

Very exciting news! John Valek has been busy working on a new toy for your model farm displays. For the first time ever, you can now purchase a highly detailed 1:64 scale Allis 760XTB st****er, with your choice of two row broadcast or brush header. The 760XTB was introduced in 1969 as an improved version of the previous 707XTB, and was produced through 1972.

To reserve yours for pick up at the show, contact John directly. Models are $200 if picked up at the show. He will also have models of the 860, 880, and 2S tractor mounted st****ers, plus many other brands and models of equipment for sale.

To help raise funds to cover show overhead expenses, we will also be raffling off a model 760XTB with brush header. Tickets are $5 each, and can be purchased in advance or at the show. Must be present to win, as these delicate models do not ship well. For ticket inquiries, message our page!

Fun fact! With its introduction in 1969, Allis also introduced the first 4 row cotton st****er header in the industry, the broadcast header that would become synonymous with simplicity and efficiency for the rest of Allis’s cotton st****er producing years. Competitors would not produce their own 4-row headers until the mid 1970s.

Cotton quiz answer! Do you remember last week’s question? ⬇️

Some of the flowers are white, some are dark pink, and some are both white and pink. What influences the color of the flower? Put your guesses in the comments!

A. Temperature
B. Pollination status
C. Color changes with age
D. Individual plant genetics
E. None of the above

The correct answer is “B”! Cotton flowers start out white, then turn to pink after pollination occurs. If you see a pink flower, take a good look because it won’t last long. They quickly fall off and the cotton boll begins development in its place.
Did you get the right answer? Stay tuned for future cotton facts and quizzes!

Fans of the orange: Do you like our show? Do you want to help promote your business? Well now is your chance to get your company name on the show banner, on advertising flyers, and on our website! While Allis Cotton Days is a free show for the public, there is a lot of behind the scenes expense that factors into the overhead, such as insurance, restroom facilities, advertising, and merchandise design. If you’d like to help sponsor the show, just send us a message and we’ll work out a deal! Deadline for the banner is September 30. Not in a position to contribute monetarily? Become a show volunteer! Message us for info on that opportunity as well. Until next time…going orange is going great!

Ever wonder how we design our shirts? In a world full of AI creations, you won't find any around here! Vanessa painstakingly draws out each machine in photoshop to create the finished product. Here's a quick time lapse that makes it look easy, but in reality this takes many hours to do. This year's shirt features a 707, one of the industry's first self propelled cotton st****ers, introduced 61 years ago in 1965. If you like what you see, help support the show by buying one! Shirts are $20 pre-ordered or $25 at the show.
