[AT] AC Cotton Stripper?

[Al Jones]

Stripper cotton I believe is from the western part of the country, I can't
remember all the states but I am thinking AZ and maybe west Texas grow a
lot of it.  A cotton stripper is a different animal than a cotton
picker--mainly in the way the cotton is removed from the plant.
