Texas Cotton Ginners' Association

The Texas Cotton Ginners' Association is a Dallas-based non-profit organization dedicated to research and improvement of cotton ginning methods. It's origins extend back to the turn-of-the-century when cotton processors organized the Texas State Ginners' Association. By 1910, Charles Baughman of the West Texas Ginners' Association transformed it into the modern Texas Cotton Ginners' Association. Officially chartered in June, 1929, the Association devoted itself to establishing uniform commercial use of cotton, encouraged productive business methods, distributed important information and promoted group interests. Began publishing "The Cotton Ginners' Journal" in October 1929. Works closely with the U. S. Department of Agriculture.
