BIG RECEIPTS OF COTTON t Raleigh, Oct. 27. ? Cotton Is being delivered to the warehouses of the North Carolina Cotton Growers' Co operative Association at a very sat isfactory rate, according to a state ment Issued from the Raleigh office Thursday night The week started off with 3,500 bales on Monday and every day has been equally as satisfactory. The deliveries indicate the confidence felt in orderly marketing by the cot ton growers of the state. Cotton was received at the ware house up to the time of the excessive rains at a satisfactory rate, but dur ing the rainy season the deliveries were slow. Since the sunshine came, the farmers have been able to pick and gin their cotton and they are rushing it to the Association ware houses. Last year the Association handled twelve and one half per cent of the crop In North Carolina and this year the indications are that the Association will handle at least 15 per cent. The crop this year is very late and very short, but the associa tion is receiving a larger proportion than it did last season. Prior to the rainy season the cotton received was of the better grades, very little grading below middling and very much of it good middling and strict middling. The cotton received immediately after the rains was of a lower grad'i but the cotton coming In now is showing much improvement as to grade. Notwithstanding the low market price of cotton the Association is stMl making an advance of $70 on every 500 pound bale with a proportionate advance on bales weighing less than 500 pounds. North Carolina farmers are getting away from 'ong staple cotton, and according to General Manager B:alock this is good. 1 lie first season, approx imately liino por cent of tho cotton delivered was Ions staple. Last year this was led.icod to less than three per cent aud the present seaho.i less than one per cent. Much of this your'i Cfiton is rjr.ning full one Inch, a staple th.it is much in demand. Hundreds of new members linvo been added to the Association during the past six weeks and new appli cations are being received every day. Since October 15 the Association hna received seventy-eight members, an average of more than ten a day. TIDEWATER GIRL WINS PRIZE TRIP TO NATIONAL CLUB CONGRESS Three district club contests were held In the Tidewater section during October: New Bern, Halifax and Hert ford being hostesses.
