McCRORY’S FIRST BALE.
The first bale of the 1908 cotton
crop of this section was brought
in Tuesday morning by J. D.
Rooks and Felix Ivy which was
sold for 10 ceuts, Fakes Mercantile
Company being the purchasers,
Messrs Rooks and Ivy receiving
only a \ cent premium per pound.
The seed cotton weighed 1,400
pounds, turning out a bale weigh
ing 448. This cotton was planted
March, 26. It is of the big boll
variety containing white seed.
Four acres were picked over to get
the bale at a price of 65 ceDts per
hundred. One of the pickers,
Mr. Dan Ivy, picked 212 pounds in
one day. The above cotton is the
same as that grown by W. B.
Fakes, mentioned in last week’s
issue, but was planted about two
mouths earlier.
A second bale of this year’s cot
ton crop was in this city Wednes
day morning, weighing 607
pounds. The bale belonged to
Mr. Luther Daniels aud was the
first to be ginned on the round
bale press of the McCrory Cotton
Company. This cotton was plant
ed April, 7, of which 2,180 pounds
were gathered. The bale sold for
12£ cents bringing Mr. Daniels
the handsome sum of $75.88 not
counting the seed. Another bale
was ginned at the above plant the
same day, belonging to Hance W.
Burrow, which weighed 4 0 0
pounds from 1,485 pounds of seed
cotton. Mr. Burrow received 10
cents per pound and paid 60 cents
per hundred for picking. All of
the above cotton was rated as good
middling.
J. T. Coston finished his series
of addresses in behalf of the Dem
ocratic party with his closing
speech in this city Saturday night.
Quite a number of citizens were
present and expressed themselves
as being highly pleased with the
geutlemau’s manner of speaking,
each declaring himself to support
the nominees, thus proving their
selves true Democrats. Mr. Cos
ton handed a very nice lemon to
the voter who would vote in the
primary and then fail to support
the nominee in the general elec
tion. The gentleman’s speech was
fluent and to the point and did a
good work among the voters o
this city and surrounding country
in behalf of the Democratic party.
