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. The teamB from
each county were credits to themselves
and the agents who trained them, the
teams of Halifax and Craven deserv
ing special mention, the Judges de
cided on the Pasquotank Jelly Team,
Perquimans county Bread Team, Hert
ford County Clothing Team, Wash
ington County Conservation of Foods
Team and Beaufort County Poultry
Team as District Representatives to
go to Raleigh to contest for State
honors. These teams were trained by
Misses Marcle Albertson, Pasquotank,
Helen Galther, Perquimans, Myrtle
Swindell. Heertford. Delano Wilson,
Washington county, and the Beaufort
Poultry Team by Miss Violet Alexan
der and F. W. Rlsher. The Craven
county Poultry Team scored high but
on account of this being an overlap
ping district county, the score of Its
poultry team bad to be compared with
the Eastern District Poultry scores,
this leaving the Beaufort county team
to represent the Tidewater District.
At the State Pair, these teams With
twenty others held the attention of
the crowd who were leaning over the
railing of the Demonstration Booths,
with mouths wide open In utter as
tonishment at hearing children from
twelve to sixteen give technical ad
vice on home making.
As a fitting close the seven hun
dred club boys and girls and voca
tional high school students were en
tertained at a bapquet at State College
where the prise winner* were announc
ed. Miss Maude Rogerson Of Perquim
ans county, was one of the two who
made the highest score In the state,
thus being chosen to represent North
Carolina at the third Club Congress
to be held In Chicago In November,
lteude Is a 14 year old elnb girl train
ed by Miss Helea Oaither, Home De
monstration Agent o{ Perquimans
county.
Superintendent Joyner of the Hert
ford High School on being told that |
the Perquimans 13read Team had won .
lu the Dstrtct Contest and would have
to leave the high school for a week .
In Raleigh, replied, "I am always glad >
Cc-**e?f?e them for such work as this.
Jfc'ish i"could send the entire high
wchootr" Miss Gaither. Home Demon
straton Agent, and Miss Smith, Dis
trict Agent, are proud of the Tidewater
District Teams, and feel that Maude
Rogerson will make an excellent re
presentative for Perquimans, the Tide
water District and North Carolina, at
the Chicago convention.
The downtrodden masses, about
whom some of the candidates speak,
are never iu that condition except
when they get iu front of a speeder.
