COMPLETED SECOND YEAR
Raleigh, Sept. 8. ? Announcing that
everything is ready for the reception
of the 1924 crop, General Manager
Blalock of the North Carolina Cotton
Growers' Cooperative Assooiation
calls attention to the fact Khat the As
sociation has successfully finished
its second year. With a trained force
of workers and with the most mod
ern labor saving and economical of
lice machinery, the Association is
prepared to make a considerable sav
ing in operating expense the coming
season. Lower insurance rates, lower
etc rage rates, some concessions in
freight rates and a substantial re
duction in Interest rates are among
the features. It is estimated that the
saving to the members of the Associa
tion in operation expense will be close
to $200,000.
The first year of operation the As
sociation handled over $135,000 bales
of cotton and averaged for its mem
bers slightly more than 25 cents a
pound. Approximately 10,000 bales of
the cotton received was old cotton de
livered by members who has joined
the association.
Reports for the second year show
that approximately 131,000 bales were
handled and t|hat the total operating
expense by reason of selling direct
to consnmer was very substantially
rtduced. Uhe members received 29
cent's a pound net for middling cotton
? a very good price for the season
and in fact the second highest aver
age price in a period of over half a
cen|ury. In the beginning of the seas
on, the management mapped out a
program and followed it. A liberal
advance payment was made on de
livery another payment was made in
December, another in the early spring
and the final settlement in July. By
this program, the membership receiv
ed money during the season, as they
were in need of it ? the members re
ceived 70 per cent of the value of the
coflton before December 25.
Now with the opening of the third
season, and in view of the fact that
several thousand new members have
joined during the summer months,
the management looks forward to a
will make an advance payment to all
members of $70 on every bale weigh
ing 500 pounds and over with slight
ly reduced advances on lighter bales.
The Association haB arranged with
the North Carolina Agricultural Cred
it Corporation for marketing loans
on all cotton of the members, these
loans to be made at the (time of de
livery and at a very low interest rate.
These marketing loans on bales
weighing 500 pounds and over are
set at $20 a bale ? by this arrange
ment members can secure $9d on
every 500 pound bale if desired on
delivery.

COLORED GRADED SCHOOL
CROWDED
MS Children ? The Largest Enroll
ment- 'Shire' Its Beginning.
My people are beginning to wake
up and realize that to slbrt their chil
dren In school the first day and let
them attend school regularly through
out the Besslon means much (b them.
To educate the boys and girls of my
race along the right lines and In the
right way, means that they will be
come a better people. I have a deep
Interest In my work and want to see
the day quickly come when we can
have a good, large well equipped In
dustrial school. Thla can only come
through, and by our white friends. If
we could only secure such a school
for this community, we would get rid
of a large per o*nf ot idleness and va
grances that Is causing much nuisance
in the community. We are hard
down at work doing the best we can
with the large number ot children
under our care. The behavior ot
our children so far has been very
good. In giving our children Instruc
tion each morning we always say to
tjhem be mannerable everywhere and
at all times. I only wish I knew how
to thank both my whit* and colored
friends for their kind Interest In onr
school work. For 2* yeara I have
striven hard to teach nott only books
but to get Into the hearts and minds
of those under my care that harmony
and a good splrlty is the real true prin
ciple that ?e need to build a solid
foundation In so doing ire win the
sympathy and respect ot our white
people. We can say or think aa we
plaaae but the south la 9% best friend
to the negro.
